Oh shit… Mom lays on the burn! LOL!

Lol! Jesus fuck, you just made me choke in laughter on my breakfast!!

Nicely done and thanks for the morning laugh.

I think as his dementia takes hold more and more, he’s going to become more erratic and it will be cunts like Steven Miller who step up to push for things. My suspicion is that the GOP is staying silent because there are many senior legislators and connected friends that ran with Epstein and why Trump isn’t releasing those files is because it’s “compromat” that he can leverage tons of people with. This is EXACTLY the kind of thing Roy Cohn would have taught him to do.

I fear what the results form a survey in the US would find…

Good. Trump and his administration deserve to be litigated into the dirt.

Roy Cohn the clown show.

Startpage! No shit. Used to be Ixquick, and I used that for years. Great site - thank you for reminding me it’s still there. :)

I cannot tell you how much I love it.

And HOW should we “take a stand” in your opinion, against those historical past evils?

Should we scream in public, writhe on the ground and tear out hair out in contrition for shit that most of us had fuck all to do with?

It’s happening. I’m going to the “Hate America” rally on Saturday.

I’m in the Northeast US. You’d be surprised at how many 2nd Amendment Democrats there are up here.

The current vogue in right-leaning circles is that liberals are all anti-firearm, limp-wristed sissies.

That’s only as few, if any, would ever post pictures of themselves wrapped up in camo gear toting their firearms and chest thumping “MURRICA!!” at the top of their lungs.

Who wants to be some easily identified target when the shit hits it?

It’s that milquetoast looking guy driving the Prius that’s splattered with Sierra Club and Hike the Applachian Trail stickers on it that’s got an arsenal in his basement.

The reality is, it was Marx, NOT Ronald Reagan, that opined that the working classes should resist efforts by the government to disarm them.

Or, maybe the whataboutisms of the past you dwell on only serve yourself, and not the hapless people getting swept off the streets and dragged off into the night.

There’s time for critical discussion of the past - and you have NO idea if the man in the photo has not had any of the soul-searching conversations with his own actions or not - and there’s time for stepping up to the injustices unfolding in the NOW.

I get it, that the past is a better cudgel to wield because it’s been written in blood, but the dwelling on that past, won’t bring a single victim to life again, or give them back what was taken.

Now with that as a truth, what are you doing for the victims who are in the NOW?

What does your rage over historical injustice do for them today?

… ?

…grab a weapon, buy ammo and practice…

What makes you think I haven’t already?

I guess the bigger question is why the generalized rage?

Pivots can and do happen in societies and let’s be honest here… 99% of the rage you have at prior political injustice comes - correctly - at the feet of capitalism.

That same capitalism that brought you the ability to buy and own a bike, a tent, and sleeping bag to use for camping, and all the amenities you are using right now - including the computer/phone and the internet you and I are on at this very instant.

So, let’s lose the notion that you yourself are not complicit in the support of those atrocities, as you are benefiting from them just like the rest of us.

You can get some land, move off the grid and use only what you grow/make for yourself… but you won’t like it.

These people thought they are saving the world and were usually one of the “sacrifices” by the actual politicians doing all the bloodshed…

In reference to the NAZI generals… They weren’t the sacrificial pawns in the game so much as the brownshirts were.

Brownshirts that today have their parallels in the newly hired ICE agents.

Those agents are thinking they have qualified immunity - but that is only in the case where they do NOT violate any constitutional Amendments when they’re arresting people.

Then they’re open to prosecution… and once the current Administration is no longer in power, (I think the healthcare subsidies being killed will be the tipping point, voters gonna get het up when memaw and pawpaw lose their lives because they couldn’t afford the doctor anymore…) the snap-back to see the worst of them thrown in jail, is going to be firece.

No way, no how will any politician step in to help them.

Well, if they were asked by the South Korean government for help…

The soldiers that invaded Normandy might beg to differ from their graves in France.

Is it also ridiculous that the current overtly fascist administration would call out anti-fascism as a terrorist philosophy? 'Cos dude, it’s happening and there’s nothing ridiculous about it.

Respecting the uniform, in this case, is less about Vietnam or Korea or the Middle-east or any of the more recent wars the US enjoined in… and more about the invasion of Normandy, the battle of the Ardennes or the liberation of Auschwitz.

Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, Dachau… Are you not seeing that ugly militant specter is goose-stepping its way back into political vogue again?

Take a breath, step back and look at the NOW.

Well, when you get to the age where mom jeans are what you want, it’s a given that you’re also at the no fucks given age WRT fashion.

It’s as liberating as hell.

I blew past mom jeans and went straight to cargo shorts and a strap belt to hold them up (in spite of being fat, I still have no ass), flip flop sandals and leg warmers. And an oxblood woolrich winter flannel shirt.

There are many spiderbros… we are legion!

This was me with beer. Gave it up over 15 years ago, as what was making me feel shitty about it was putting out the recycling bin filled with beer bottles and cans… and realizing just how much money I was spending on something that was doing nothing good for me. Stopped drinking in 2009 and don’t miss it a bit. Saving a lot more money as well…
