I debated whether or not to post the following, but fuck it, I am not sure how much longer I will be on this cesspool of hate and lies. Here goes: I feel a sense of profound sadness. Contrary to what Kamala told us, we don’t appear to have more in common with each other than we do in difference. Remember Covid? We were never unified in how we handled the pandemic. We won’t be unified in what comes next. Our original sin of slavery plagues us to this day. A majority of this country places more value on the color of your skin and your gender, than the content of your character. You are judged even before you open your mouth. We are more a collection of tribes than a unified people, all vying for power. MAGA is a tribe - a personality cult - and we just elected the cult leader our king and the highest court made him unaccountable. Soon, there will be only one tribe. United in hate and division. Conform or be cast out. I am a lifelong student of history, always have been. Therefore, a lifelong student of human nature. The times change, but human nature does not. What comes next, I do not know, but history suggests a calamity. We elected the most unscrupulous, unqualified, illiterate and sociopathic man possible because people get their information in silos and are largely spoon-fed lies and propaganda. Most of the population are ignorant of facts and economics - and they like it that way. Trump represents the worst of us, full of hate, greed and misogyny. He will purge the government of competence and, eventually, purge it of conscience. It will become a tool of retribution and an extension of his rotten soul. The tools of violence will be turned inward and trained on us all. Trump aligns himself, and us, with the worst actors internationally. America First will mean America Last. We will no longer be the reliable partner in peace and therefore no longer the reliable partner in conflict. The world abhors a vacuum. Without US leadership and stability, the world will erupt in fire and no one will be there to prevent the spread. The fire will reach our shores and it will be too late to do anything about it. We are all about to relearn the lessons of history, the hard way. Winter is coming, friends. Do what you can to survive it.

@the_bassplayer OMG, that is too fucking funny

😎

@edzitron The GoPro glasses strapped to all the heads of their employees.

WHAT compute needs? What is Meta using the compute for? That weird little popup on every Meta app begging you to talk to it? The popup on instagram that asks a weird barely relevant question on every video?

@Acyn Such an asshole.

Wow Scott Jennings blows up at Adam Mockler: “Get your fucking hand out of my face” Mockler: We all know that Scott Jennings is more than happy to defend a war with a country that starts with letters Ira that we are currently failing that is going to put us trillions and trillions of dollars more in debt. I was only a few years old while you were in the administration defending prior endless wars.

Jon Ossof is impressive as hell. He is positioning himself for 2028 ... and earning that spot with every interview. @ossoff

@TimHannan Must be Tommy Tutone's work

Someone left their phone number on the beach.

@edzitron Never met a single CFO that pushed "stretch goals." ANy CFO worth their salt is pragmatic and conservative in their forecasts.

Can’t wait for this to be quoted as an exhibit one day

@JohnnyRivers33 @DeptofWar There is a long and complicated process. Nothing is easy with the VA.

@EagleCfa @DeptofWar Couldnt the va pay for you to go to another doctor for cheaper? Is your condition terminal and an emergency? What is the VA s protocol on that?

Believe women. Give them the chance to make their case. Wait for the facts. Even when she is the accused. Especially when she is the accuser. Haven’t we learned by now?!?

@CliffW08950229 @Tinkerblue24 To be fair, he shits his pants anyway.

Jimmy Kimmel with Stormy Daniels. Trump must be shitting his pants.

@TomsPedalDemos Tremolo … all the way. Gilmour approved.

Let's hear those opinions guys and gals.

@john_ledrew @symeew13 Nice!!!

@EagleCfa @symeew13

Got Green Guitars? Let’s see them!

@SteveEvans51020 @symeew13 🤘🎸👍🏼

@EagleCfa @symeew13 Awesome! 😎

@GeoffDuncanGA @AuforGA Good luck, Geoff - Georgia deserves better!

It’s humbling to see my name on the ballot. I was grateful to be joined by my wife, my sons, and my friend @AuforGA to cast my vote today. But we are in dire times with Republicans here in Georgia and across the country. They’re trying to change the rules after the game has started to disenfranchise Black voters across the South. As governor, I’ll stand up for all Georgians.

@RoxyVanRuiten Looks great, Roxy - all the best for you and your home.

Our house is coming together!!!😄😄😄😄😄😄🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠 so so so excited!!!

@JennXTex Sigh, I've lost two more Japanese Maples. Again. I remain undeterred - I will have one here in South TX.

Our Japanese maple is going nuts this year! When we planted this tree 20 years ago, it was TINY Now, I want someone with Edward Scissorhands skills to come shape it up

@salinisalazini Legend (already)

This is wild work from the 👽🔥

@TheRealThelmaJ1 Dude needs to have a podcast on manscaping

Be honest, will you watch Scott Presler’s upcoming fitness podcast?

@Tesla Because no one wants to be seen in one.

Cybertruck is the safest EV pickup you can buy

Wholesale gasoline prices have increased $0.70 in a WEEK and we continue to reduce domestic supplies by shipping refined oil products OVERSEAS. Refineries are operating at 100% capacity and cannot supply more product. INSANITY. #Trump #gas #diesel #jetfuel
