  • The Republican party is a death cult.

  • Republicans want people to die.

    It really is just that simple.

    U.S. senators urge Canada to ‘give us another chance’ on trade, tourism - National | Globalnews.ca

    Jump

  • I was actually just thinking about that, sort of.

    The childish and sort of pathetic nature of the whole thing led me to visualize a hardass middle-aged mom dragging Trump up to Canada by the ear and standing him in front of everyone and saying, "Donnie has something he wants to say to you all, don't you Donnie (pinch)"

    In a way, that's exactly what that manbaby needs.

    Trump gives rambling speech about trophy wives, golf and the ‘great late’ Al Capone

  • Just a reminder that Trump is by any measure profoundly mentally ill and thus unfit for office and can be and should be removed.

  • Actually, US senators are in a position to do something that would actually go some way toward repairing relations with Canada - they can (with the House's cooperation) remove the profoundly mentally ill, immensely dangerous and brazenly corrupt demagogue Trump from office.

    Nothing short of that is going to accomplish much of anything though. As long as that psychopath is in office, incrementally turning the presidency into a dictatorship from which to pursue his literally insane agenda, nobody will or should trust the US for anything.

  • US Tourism Sector Plunges into Unprecedented Revenue Crisis in 2025 as America First Policy Ravages Global Visitor Arrivals

    Jump

  • I'm sort of idly curious who President Manbaby is going to blame for this.

    It goes without saying that it'll be someone other than himself - broadly that's who he blames for everything he fucks up. But I wonder who specifically.

    As with many spoiled children, it's actually sort of perversely amusing to see just how ridiculous his lies might get.

  • Analysis: World leaders have a huge new problem: Trump’s Oval Office smackdowns

    Jump

  • I actually expect most world leaders to start treating Trump as a pariah. He's just a gross, creepy manbaby who looks and notoriously smells like a drain clog and who can't be trusted for anything ever, so there's nothing to be gained from interacting with him at sll.

  • “F**k you”: Entire Trump team hated Elon Musk, damning report reveals | Elon Musk has left the White House an utter failure

    Jump

  • Very much this.

    Now it should be noted that Musk is, among other things, a desperately insecure wienie who really is crushed by the fact that basically everyone hates him and spends a great deal of time and effort cringily trying to compensate for it and pathetically failing. So at some level all of this certainly does hurt him.

    But he's also toxically greedy and self-absorbed and wantonly destructive, and by those measures, his government tenure was a resounding success. And that he undoubtedly throws tantrums and goes on crying jags when he's alone, just like he's done since middle school, doesn't make any of the rest of it any less a success.

  • IANAL, but I don't think so, unless they managed to make a charge of fraud stick, which would require proving that he never had any intention of paying them.

    Without something like that, his failure to pay up is a civil matter rather than a criminal one.

  • So the only question really is whether it's more the case that he's not paying because there's a chance that he could be prosecuted for buying votes or if he's not paying just because he's a lying sack of shit who doesn't keep promises.

    Or both.

    I'm thinking both.

  • Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

    Jump

  • Mostly Fabled Lands. It's fun exploration, but the dice roll mechanics get tiresome - especially when you need a particular dice roll to trigger or complete a quest, so you just end up triggering the dice roll over and over.

    And sort of inspired by the remaster, I've been playing a bit of Oblivion lately. I have thousands of hours in the game, spread over about forty characters, but I haven't played it in a couple of years now. I toyed with the idea of getting the remaster, but my game is so extensively modded - mostly landscape and gameplay changes - that I don't think I could go back to the vanilla game, even remastered. But it did get me thinking about it...

  • Economics is a classic form of divination, like astrology or tarot, and its purpose is the same - to provide oracles who will serve the monarch and tell him that the things he wants will happen and the things he doesn't will not.

  • The Israeli mass slaughter of Palestinian men, women and children has made me wish, more than anything else in 50+ years on this Earth, that the Old Testament God actually existed.

    Imagine the fire and brimstone He'd rain down on those patently evil motherfuckers.

    And bonus points if He kvetched while he did it - "Here I went ahead and made you My chosen people and this is how you repay Me? If I'd known this was what you were going to do with your lives, I would've left you in the desert."

  • It appears at odds wirh a claimed priority of the Trump administration, but that's easily explained by the fact that Trump is easily the most overtly corrupt piece of shit to hold the office in modern history and a compulsive liar.

    The bludgeoningly obvious reality is that he's dismantling that and every other agency that might stand in the way of his corruption and duplicity because he's a greedy, questing, self-serving piece of shit with no morals, no integrity, no principles and no honor, and any noise he might make about fighting corruption is 100% lies.

    This <4” lunar meteorite fell to earth from the moon and now costs $4,950, which is $125,050 less than Stormy Daniels was paid after Donald Trump forced her into barely consensual sex.

    Jump

  • That Stormy Daniels was paid with funds embezzled from the Trump campaign and hidden behind false financial reports.

  • Chuck Schumer says he is placing a hold on Trump DOJ nominees amid questions on Qatar's luxury jet gift

    Jump

  • I presume Schumer is upset by the accusations that he's spineless and wants to demonstrate that he does in fact possess a spine. That's made of pudding. And that he only breaks out when the stakes are low.

  • Trump Is Said to Be Getting Qatari 747 for Air Force One, and Post-Presidency Travel

    Jump

  • It strikes me that this in a way illustrates how delusional Trump is.

    He's an egomaniac and a pathological narcissist, and he's demonstrated repeatedly that he's obsessed with how other people see him - he's desperate to be respected and admired.

    And I have no doubt that he sees this gift as a mark of respect and admiration.

    And it very much is not - it's the complete opposite in fact. It's the Qatari royal family pretty clearly saying that while strengrhening ties with the US under another president would require a great deal of detailed discussion and negotiation, with Trump all it requires is giving him something bright and shiny.
