Storytelling & oral sex.

I mean, he is a reality TV star. Isn’t this how he lives?

Imagine life was a game. You lived for 2025 years. You worked 260 days / year. You made the median US salary.

You would need to relive that process 3,145 times to match an Oligarch.

That amount of wealth is unethical while humanity suffers. No one can really fathom “1b dollars.”

I personally find the Leviticus 16:10 scapegoat quote to be more appropriate:

Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the Lord and offer it as a purification offering, but the goat on which the lot fell for Azazel shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness to Azazel.

It makes me sad growing up in public school and learning about these atrocities only to see so much repeat. It’s horrible.

Yeah, I don’t get how the language is lost on these groups. :/ It feels like “never forget” has been forgotten & the opposite has been implemented instead. All genocide is awful.

Much more honest/fair take.

He was 94.

I don’t believe in conspiracy theories, but with the way right wing loves to talk about vampires & adrenochrome, could be more projection. /joking, of course

Wonder why.

My state license allows an X marker. RealID doesn’t, since its contents are under the directive of the federal govt.

Also, X/trans folks are being denied passports.

Certainly seems like I’m not meant to live my life as I see fit.

Why not use both and turn it into a 2 panel meme?

Me when I have water

Me when I'm a human living in the modern world

Oh we’re just talking past each other. I agree it’s more-so “do both” but it felt like Dems really dropped the economic piece.

It’s not focused on the economics?

I think this is the same shift for Republicans post-Obama. Every Republican started saying, “I’m an independent.” and the Tea Party started. Back then, Trump’s claim to fame was the birther movement, which eventually became MAGA & the presidential run.

Nowadays, I have very little respect or identification with Democrats. It feels like a failed party. I think they’ll either transform more left (see Bernie & AOC’s shifts & populism) or die out to something else. I like the Working Families Party because it focuses on the economic disparities rather than identity politics.

I’m glad we found more freedom for more people, but I think the Left has lost cohesion in doing so. We don’t need to all be the same, but the message used to be “Working class vs. Rich” and the Right manipulated that into its current populism. Now there’s the “Liberal Elites” that are out of touch, and recent events make it feel that way, not just propaganda any longer.

But it’s O P E N.

“Hopefully” here is doing a lot of work for you. I have 0 expectation of fair elections going forward.
