I do not remember trump selling beans. It honestly sounds more like something from the Carter playbook. I can imagine Carter with a nice little bean farm. I cannot envision trump doing even miniscale farming.

I’d rather hear the George Carlin version.

goes to fetlife and finds “exploit me daddy!” as one of the kinks

…the fuck?

HEY EVERYBODY! BE BLUEFRUIT’S FRIEND!!! YOU GET TO PET A CAT!!!

There. Now you have too many friends.

We’re at a point where I don’t even know what this headline is.

Maga pol? What the fuck is a maga pol? What the hell is “trump derangement syndrome”?

I do not understand life right now. Is this a trump ally being arrested? Or someone arrested for introducing a bill saying trump is deranged?

…we live in the dumbest timeline.

This is what being in your 40s trying to date is like. You put up your best picture on a dating site, but you’re still old and very tired. Might delete the whole profile later.

I don’t even have a dog, but you know how they say all dogs look like their owners? If I had a dog, it’d be this guy. This dog looks like he’s about 8 beers deep watching baseball, it’s the 7th inning, down by 1, and all he can talk about is how the Cleveland Indians had the 1997 world series in the bag. We won the world series. And then, the Marlins best player came to pitch. Jose Mesa. Now I know what you’re thinking. Mesa was wearing an Indians jersey. And he was. Mesa was officially a roster member of the Cleveland Indians. But he was STILL the Marlins best player…

…am I projecting my sports belief onto a dog?

I am going to do what I did to my old cat.

First I’m going to pet him with both hands. Just rubbing him all over. Then my friend will join in. So now thats 4 hands. Just giving him all the attention. Then another friend, and another, and another! After a while we had 12 people all petting my cat. 24 hands, and we were all giving verbal attention at first too.

“Awwww, speeed!!! Pretty kitty!!!”

“Look at speed!!! Getting a rubdown!!!”

“Speed so soft! Speed so soft!!!”

That sort of thing. Eventually it was like overload for her. She CONSTANTLY begged for attention, and pets, even if you were just petting her 3 seconds ago. But 24 hands at once, and she eventually got a confused look on her face, and ran away.

Only time I ever see her say “ENOUGH! NO MORE PETS!”

Whoops!

Whoopsie!

In his life? No. The word is not in his lexicon. Funnily enough, neither is the word “lexicon”.

There’s plenty of abandoned malls and former retail shops that now just sit abandoned in the wake of Amazon’s dominance. If you’re going to make everything about realism, I’m sure there’s never a former radioshack or blockbuster, or toys r us nearby.

Only because the path to citizenship for earth humans can be as long as 28 years in the united states. How long do you think it takes for a kryptonian?

Batman is a 1% elitist who is basically an extention of the police. Notice that the only black criminals in Gotham are (sometimes) catwoman? It’s because the police just kill the black criminals.

But a deranged clown is going to blow up city hall? Better call the deranged guy in the bat costume.

I mean fuck it. If trump is going to run in 2028, why NOT obama, right?

You should have sat down, and said “I’m actually American.”

Todays word of the day is…Enshitification!

In WWII the Canadians had a group of japanese POWs. They did nothing to harm the japanese. The japanese were afraid to enjoy the hospitality, for fear it was a trick. They feared poisoned food. They feared if they relaxed they’d be tortured or killed. Because during WWII times, thats what they’d have done. No tricks, just torture. So they couldn’t comprehend what the fuck the canadians were doing by bringing fresh fruit and fresh cooked meals daily. They didn’t understand why they weren’t being beaten or whipped.

Meanwhile on the battlefield the Canadians were fierce!

So uhhhhhh…I’m not a software developer, but are you guys hiring? I don’t know. I’ll dress up in a clown suit and do unfunny things. Maybe I can mime a satire of what it’s like working at other jobs. Like drinking coffee, looking exhausted, typing on a keyboard, looking exhausted, talking on the phone, looking exhausted, sorting through filing cabinets, hanging yourself with a noose…uh…I mean…looking exhausted.

My point is, your job sounds amazing, and I want to work there even if I don’t have any skills or qualifications. Let’s make this happen.

Um…guys? Are we going to talk about this? Because…seriously. He’s trying to shut down, silence, and censor media. That’s literally a fascist move. That’s straight from the fascist playbook. The nazi’s LITERALLY did this. So instead, Radio London would broadcast in french. They’d open and close each broadcast with a series of nonsensical phrases they called “personal messages”. What was otherwise disguised as the station listeners calling the station with messages like “Pierre dit bonjour” or “Pierre says hello”. Just seemingly innocent phrases that listeners would call in, so other listeners could hear them. Personal messages. And on one random night, a night that could have been any other night, a very special personal message went out.

“Blessent mon coeur d’une langueur monotone”

Which if you didn’t know it’s meaning, would seem harmless enough, if not a bit random. However, those in the french resistance knew it well. It was their signal to grab arms and join the fight. Because this random night just happened to be June 5th 1944. A night now famous among those who know their history. However you may also know it by another name. D-Day.

I bring all this up to mention the fact that all of that was necessary to do on Radio London, because all radio stations in France, were now occupied and ruled my the nazi’s at that time. The nazi’s shut down and censored any actual French media.

Which is what trump is doing right now. Shutting down and censoring media, while being the president of a nation that has for literal centuries prided itself on being the home of free speech. I just want you to consider the irony here, and take in the full scale of what’s happening right now. We are actively taking more and more steps each day to becoming a full on fascist state. Does anyone not see this? Is everybody forgetting history? I feel like it’s obvious. It’s on full display. They’re not attempting to hide it. They’re just going through with it.

It’s reminding me of that scene with heath ledger as joker saying if you execute a plan, and somebody unexpectly dies, everybody loses their mind. But if you state a plan is intended to have a few deaths, then nobody panics when people die.

I feel like that’s what’s going on right now. In 2024 we learned about project 2025. Details leaked. And now that people are used to the ideas, they accept them more easily, despite knowing the actual plans are terrible plans that shouldn’t be plans. But they ARE plans. So everybody is just going along with it.

I JUST got 2 of them today. Now I’m thinking it’s because of this thread. I haven’t gotten one since like…September.
