Sarcastic bitch with a wine problem

  • Huh, interesting. Probably not "fine" though since if she's at Gold / Int Base she's probably being held against her will, considering that the whole base is sorta built around being like a prison compound and they even have private security "pursuit teams" to hunt down escapees.

    Edit: not to say that everybody at Int is being held against their will, but it's where eg. The Hole is so if somebody is being held, Int is probably where they'd be

  • I bet David had her killed years ago. They own the cops so nothing ever comes of the investigations

  • Hey don't worry, neither will a lot of us Europeans who have had to live under right-wing governments. Reich-wingers love to emulate the US

  • "The narrative" that everybody should have voting rights?

    Oh no, the horror!

  • Reminds me of Serena from Handmaid's Tale – she helped install a theocratic dictatorship where one major goal was to strip women of their rights, and was all surprised Pikachu face when she had her rights taken away from her

  • The Phase II clinical trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of Incel administered intravenously

    Mainlining incel, damn that doesn't sound great at all

  • Agh, figures that the Russian Volunteer Corps was apparently in on the action. It just never fails to boggle my mind that the majority of the anti-Russian militias that are fighting in Ukraine are so far right that they think Putin isn't fascist enough.

    Like, yeah, it's great that they're fighting Russia, but holy fuck is it this hard to find people in Russia who aren't complete pieces of shit and are also willing to fight Putin?

  • I think it's interesting is that so many autocracies keep up the pretense of democratic and rules-based governance; even North Korea has elections. Same with political trials like you see in so many authoritarian regimes, from modern Russia or China to Nazi Germany – it's like autocrats need to be able to pretend to themselves that the system they run is fair and just, and that they're not just tyrants who govern with impunity and enforce rules arbitrarily.

    What I don't get is why? Why bother when it's immediately obvious to everyone that it's all a sham? Why not drop the pretense, which everybody knows is just a pretense?

  • the only political group that supports Putin in Portugal are the communists.

    I'm very much a leftist and this is just something I haven't managed to wrap my mind around. How can anyone claim to be a leftist and support an extremist right wing dictator?

  • the former president's campaign has disavowed the project and recently went so far as to say its "demise would be greatly welcomed," while Trump urged his supporters to boo it at a campaign rally.

    You'll have to excuse me if I don't believe for a fucking second that this is anything but optics. It's not like conservatives have to explicitly say they're following the playbook, but they obviously already are – many Republican lawmakers are members of the conservative organizations that wrote the fucking thing (see eg. this bit of news from TN)
