Just a note, it’s “Ukraine” not “the Ukraine”.

I’m buying stock in iron lung manufacturing when RFK bans vaccines and polio comes back. Also investing in chain link fence for all the concentration camps, and tiny coffins for the nonviable fetuses forced to be delivered.

She’s real. She’s batshit crazy, but she’s real

Gonna be a long 4 years.

Aw, you still think this is going to be over in 4 years? The US just had its last free and open election.

Is it “mmmmmmmm”?

Remember last time he stole a ton of documents and he kept them at Mar-a-lago?

Or when he asked for info on US intelligence and all of a sudden Russia caught and vanished a bunch of US spies?

If those didn’t instantly disqualify him, nothing else will.

If you leave them all in place they all turn into free mulch and compost anyway. And you avoid using the fossil fuels to power the mower you don’t need in the first place.

The discussion was about your claim that voting was all you could do, which is strange for a self-professed optimist to say. You responded with whataboutism. This conversation is over.

So no actual answer, just an attempt at redirection.

What about For(r)est Gump?

Plain Jane

But guess what? All you can do is vote.

What are you talking about? Voting is the very least you can do. Get active. Contact your representatives. Take to the streets in protest. Stand up for something. You call him a defeatist and then say there’s nothing more to do.

Take your own advice and get off the internet and do something that helps you. Hoping the Repubs consume themselves doesn’t do shit. That’s not an ‘optimistic’ view. It’s a lazy and cowardly one.

“Sucks” isn’t even a swearword! Are we j*st going to st*rt censoring normal w*rds now?

Oh great, now some US states are gonna get jealous.

But Mug root beer isn’t even good. I’d rather just drink Pepto Bismol.

Musk’s said his new department can find 2 trillion dollars to cut… presumably so they can funnel it all into private hands instead.

And then wait for the next right-wing psychopath to buy up that one? You can’t jump off Twitter to another privately held platform and not expect the same to happen there sooner or later.

They don’t have to take away your power if you stop yourself from using it first. Don’t willingly give up your voice.

“Significant other”. It’s a stand-in for any partner (boy/girlfriend, husband/wife, commonlaw, fuckbuddy, etc)

That’s a stage name. I assume some of the others on the list are too.
