I just recently crossed the threshold from "dread", into "habit forming", and man did that make a difference in my mental state 🤣 Keep it up! 👍

Just like none of the bold investigators backfilling Joe Biden's feeble debate performance with punchy anonymous quotes have ever figured out why Trump was rushed to Walter Reed, claimed he wanted a spur-of-the-moment weekend checkup, and a year later declared that he had NOT had a series of strokes

But simple explanations don’t sell newspapers so… 🤷‍♂️

I think the simplest explanation is that he had a cold, and with an empty room he felt no reason to use his "big voice". But Trump yells constantly, so by contrast, he looked incredibly weak. That same night he met with a crowd and sounded far more energetic.

You’ve heard it all but apparently never listened. Please, for the love of God, don’t throw away your vote on a 3rd party this election.

I wonder if nations wishing to aid UKR could send (and help install) home solar panels for large portions of the population… 🤔

You win. I concede. But also you should watch Trigun, Ghost in the Shell, and Naruto.

They’ll continue to shift the attack because they’re disgusting people who only want power. There’s no "winning" on morals with them, only winning the election.

Ending his day at 8pm means he’s bringing his working hours DOWN to that of a VFX Artist, and I just don’t know how he isn’t a completely broken man already. Like… I’m burned out as fuck and I just make pretty pictures nobody watches.

I can’t tell what’s a serious question on the Internet anymore… but if so… Animated film or TV series produced in Japan, though some would extend that to more Asian countries. It is NOT just for kids, as it typically includes a lot of adult-themed stories.

Typing entirely in lower case is so infuriating to me. Like it’s a personal insult or something.

If you think that we actually just need a civil war to settle this once and for all: 1. No, you don’t. 2. No, you don’t. 3. You are an idiot.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

I just want to thank you, profusely, for this soup-to-nuts context. It’s something most people wouldn’t bother to do, which drives me absolutely bonkers 👍

Also moving to another country, permanently, requires significantly more than just buying a plane ticket. Most people wouldn’t even know how to start.

I firmly believe Trump would have all unfavourable Press killed. Either with an explicit order, or in a "won’t someone please rid me of these reporters" kind of way. It’s baffling they don’t seem to see this as a possibility.

If Biden can't campaign he should consider passing the torch, but the elite press (and especially the NYT) is desperately trying to will this into existence. And it's really gross. (2/2)

Pretty sure I’ll never be able to retire. 1) Everything costs too much NOW for me to be able to save, and 2) even if I could save, it’ll cost so much more THEN to be able to retire anyway.

I sincerely hope so. I can’t shake the feeling that NATO would fracture under such chaos, with more right-wing parties gaining power across the globe 😔

Because their dick gets hard at the thought of Democracy dying; not in darkness, but in the bright orange glow of Trump’s fascist regime.

Trump won’t do anything to help UKR; he loves Putin too much. He’ll only ensure more Ukrainians die when he halts the delivery of weapons and aid.

Trump doesn’t have a plan. At least nothing beyond "Look, since you didn’t give me the made-up dirt I wanted on Biden, you should surrender 1/3 of your land to Putin". Meeting with Trump will be a total waste of time, and lend him legitimacy he doesn’t deserve.

Putin is going to make it look like Trump has better influence/power, because the GOP voters are absolute rubes and will believe it. Then once Trump wins, Putin will invade Poland, since Trump will abandon NATO.

No one should be giving Carlson oxygen at this point. For Zelenskyy meet with him gives Carlson "legitimacy", and that sorry sack of wet farts deserves none.

I get that it’s easier and more appealing to "tan suit" Biden, because of ratings, and facing the REAL problems makes you feel uncomfortable and scared about the impending march of Fascism. But let me remind you of something: If Trump wins, he won’t put you in camps. He’ll just have you murdered.

Like, goddamn… Press Sec comes out and talks about how Russia’s latest advance in UKR is failing, which would be MONUMENTAL for UKR, Europe and the world, and the first question you ask it about fucking jet lag from last week? You are going to sink Democracy in America over of this. Get fucked.
