I know this is the deranged ravings of a senile racist and all, but the fact that his envisioned endpoint of “a nightmare of violence and terror” is “Christmas is cancelled!” is some next level bullshit, god damn.
Racism-a-go-go at Trump’s Michigan rally tonight: “If Abdul and the Democrats win, they will open the floodgates and invite hordes of jihadists to our shores, creating a nightmare of violence and terror until you cannot even have a Christmas.”
…that’s, like, 70% of the driving psychology for the modern conservative movement, what the hell is he talking about
Bernie Sanders: "I know conservative parents want to raise their kids to be honest, not to be bullies, not to lie and cheat all of the time. If we want to raise our kids to be honest, not to be narcissists who think the world revolves around them, then we need to hold Donald Trump accountable."

I met a traveller from an American land Who said: a giant billboard stands In a desert near the Rio Grande On the billboard, these words appear: Opportunidad. Dignidad. Trabajo. Trump. Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck Nothing else to see for miles and miles and miles.
He’s the one who was responsible for mainstreaming Great Replacement Theory from nazi websites into general American political discourse Nice to see he’s still playing the hits, I guess.
Tucker Carlson and George Galloway push the "Great Replacement" theory. Tucker claims it started with the end of World War II, the "International Community" was threatened by majority-white countries, and the one country that resisted was Russia, and that's why the West hates Russia.
By virtue of doing campaign work, I’m 2-3 degrees of separation from basically every federally elected official in the US And probably the same for every state-level executive and legislative official now that I think about it
To flip some discourse script for a bit: what’s y’all’s Obama number (ie degrees of separation with the former president)? Mine is 3

Trump's reflexive desire to defend rapists is yet another one of those self censoring facts about him
Q: Ashley Hinson, who you're campaigning for tonight, says the Ramaswamy ad is 'absolutely terrible' and should be taken down. Why are you defending it? TRUMP: I'm defending it because I know that if that ad was about my mother, you would love every inch of it
In Escape From New York, the wireframe computer display that Snake uses to navigate his glider is fake. They built miniature buildings, painted them black with bright green edges, and swooped a camera through it. At the time, it would have been too expensive to render an actual wireframe CG model.
We all know the "Viggo broke his toe" story but what's another movie fact you're personally compelled to bring up every time without prompting? For me, it's the fact that Robin Tunney is wearing a wig in The Craft because of having just shaved her head to save her job filming Empire Records.

So Gundam Rogue Orbit looks like it might be designed to scratch this exact itch for me Am I gonna have to learn about Gundam now. Thats probably doable in like an afternoon, right.
Okay but would it kill everyone if we had a mecha game that wasn’t about the bleak existential misery of human nature and would just let me have Big Awesome Robot? And also not be multiplayer; I’m almost 40.

@funranium.bsky.social *Dude* Wow.
You know, I’m not entirely sure this dinosaur is on the up-and-up about the product in question.

Look, forget weapons, the existence of radio communication is an absolutely devastating advantage over any military that would have to rely on runners and horseback messengers
They're doing a form of racism on the other site where you pretend that jet aircraft and helicopters don't exist. (the one-upsmanship at the bottom is pretending that repeating firearms and modern artillery doesn't exist as well)

Hey so how many times does this have to happen before I can say (without sounding like a "conspiracy theorist") that Donald Trump likes Vladimir Putin, will help Putin whenever an easy opportunity presents itself, and would prefer that Putinist Russia win the war in Ukraine
US officials stepped up pressure on Ukraine to stop striking Russian oil refineries and threatened to cut off vital intelligence sharing as Donald Trump announced a deal with Moscow to release diesel on to the world market. www.ft.com/content/7fd4... via @financialtimes.com
And that’s why Derek Guy is the deadliest son of a bitch ̶I̶n̶ ̶s̶p̶a̶c̶e̶ on the Internet
Trump's suit appears to be part of Jos. A. Bank's Traveler line. The suit is listed as having been made abroad using a wool-polyester-spandex blend. The company describes it as having the "ultimate stretch" and was designed to minimize body odor.

I do think this should put some of the hand-wringing over the uniquely sinful American electorate, uniquely feckless institutions, etc in perspective. The truth is that there is a large trans-national constituency of people who actively want this. They aren’t deceived. They want this.
On the one hand, it’s comforting to know that Americans aren’t uniquely stupid, voters everywhere have skulls filled with mush and worms. On the other hand, global fascism is probably not an ideal state of affairs.

This fucking rocks, dude. I expect to be seeing ads about this by the end of the week
NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.
