  • It hasn't. Not in any real way. But these republicans get extremely, earth-shatteringly, unreasonably fuck-ass mad over this kind of stuff.

    Nothing anyone does or even can do will matter until we get rid of Citizens United. Until that point we're an oligarchy, not a democracy or even a republic.

  • It will be now that the idea has been sown.

    Then there will be rival distros that hate each other. Dukes vs Miracle Whip debates. etc.

  • Why is Vicious Mockery so effective against these clowns?

    I mean. If they were competent and confident in what they're doing they really wouldn't be bothered by stuff like this. But every time whether its covfefe or taco or couch fucking they just melt like a wicked witch being given a swirly.

  • Both my parents loved Days of our lives. Watched it religiously. I don't remember a lot. Except that Steffano is literally the devil. Just the worst.

  • They won't stop until someone stacks up a pile of gestapo. Then they'll come down harder. This is fascism. It's going to take hot lead to make it stop. Sooner or later.

  • And most of them are socialists. I sat my reliably republican voting aunt down and had a discussion about policy. Point for point. Healthcare. Immigration. Labor. Even stuff like gay marriage. Point by point I proved to her that she was and always has been a socialist. But the instant the big scary S word left my mouth her pavlovian conditioning kicked in. I was a fool and an idiot. Didn't know what I was talking about. etc.

    She shut down the convo.

  • Some mid-late 80s IBM from a flea market. Came with no OS installed. But along with it came a set of 5in floppies. DOS 1 and a copy of Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Simulator. I eventually got DOS 3 from a family friend and upgraded it. Being able to change the background from black to blue blew my mind.

  • If this isn't the kind of stuff you're asking. You're doing it wrong.

  • What was the term back during Bush's war on peace?

    "Extraordinary Rendition"

    No. That was shipping "criminals" to torture camps and prisons in a third country so the US wouldn't be blamed for all the torture and illegal imprisonment.

    That sounds familiar. Like recently familiar.

    Still. Wonder if there's a name for kidnapping escaped scientists who fled the country and bringing them back. I bet there's a German word. There's always a German word. Might be 47 letters and entirely unpronounceable. But it probably exists.

  • Yessum miss daisy. I be honkin'

  • How long do we think it'll take for the brain drain to kick into its full economic consequences? 5, 10 years?

  • When you're so toxic and radioactive that HEDGE FUNDS don't want to deal with you.

    Good sign for the future. Hard to find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than fkin' hedge funds.

  • Apparently mine is The Long Kiss Goodnight.

    I love it. My family hates it.

  • "Don't print that I was mad" energy from the clown prince.
