so Trump 2.0’s war on every single non-evil job did destroy my career and traumatize me a lil bit, but the thing is that, like many people in my position, I’m quite capable of synthesizing that trauma into a single-minded thirst for revenge

If you lived in Canada, you'd have guaranteed health care at least.

I am genuinely about to send off a Canadian citizenship by descent application

Really feeling the Yamamoto quote about "awakening a sleeping giant" lately. We are through the shock and fear phase and are now deep into the "every grandma and gentle parenting dad is vibrating with bloodthirst for revenge at levels I did not realize were possible"

I remember seeing on Reddit a guy saying he thought every pop culture portrayal of an engaged pacifist as a chilled out dude who just doesn't get upset was the opposite of real life. Real engaged folks are, as you say so evocatively, vibrating with rage all the time and barely containing it.

This post? (Originally from Tumblr.)

Oy, I was hoping you'd be speaking for 'mericans...

Them too! My family is American (I immigrated to Canada in 2012) and even my bullshit "politics is for suckers, they're all scum" dad is weighing Democratic primary choices for 2028. This is a guy who went anti-vax during COVID (he's not stupid just got Facebook'd) and even he is ticked and engaged.

Friendly reminder to us all: don't let your Evelyn Normielibs post about their militia groups.

My (Irish Catholic from Armagh) grandpa would often go on and about IRA stories and somewhere in the last year my 5'1, 95 pound mom has suddenly become very interested in them lol

On current trajectory, we're going to see a Minion meme threatening [redacted] entered as evidence in a criminal trial before the Trump administration ends.

*nods emphatically in Minnesotan*

I sincerely feel like Minnesota is where the high water mark for Trumpism crashed against the rocks and was rebuffed. Truly inspiring stuff happening there and we are all rooting for you. As a Canadian, we really vibe with "polite northerly types who you simply do not want to fuck with" lol

They just spent the entire weekend attacking a country known globally for being nice and polite for no good reason other than to shake them down like a bunch of mobsters. I really do not think that's going to go over well with most people. Even Maga has to be like "The Canadians? Really?"

Real MAGA cultists genuinely think we are a communist wasteland after the trucker thing in 2022, but everyone else is like "uh, what? The hockey people who say 'sorry' all the time?" lol

SAME

I got some graves I gotta piss on some day and nothing will stop me
