there are dozens of us! Dozens!

that’s quitter talk

Hell, I’m still imagining a world where we had Gore instead of Junior.

When you’re overtaking someone going slow, but they speed up next to you, so you’re stuck now and will miss the exit. Just pretend they were probably lonely and just needed someone next to them for a while.

alternatively, if your vehicle is not driven by unicorn farts and has something with a bit of oomph to it, and you don’t mind risking it: Mash accelerator, assert dominance, make exit.

When you can’t wrap your hand fully around it, I’d say, is the boundary between a stick and a log.

Yeah, no shit it’s not Trump he’s gotta fear, Vance is the pope killer. We’ve established this.

This is the second foreign-lottery-related question I’ve seen this morning. From two different accounts.

God, fuck, I hope not. The more tomorrows I’ve been through, the less I want another to come.

edit: god DAMNIT

my objection is not coming from somewhere you can throw justifications or “gotchas” at to refute. Morally distasteful it would certainly be (at least to me), but what I say mostly comes from the simple truth that wiping out entire populations indiscriminately – doesn’t matter who, Iran, Israel, w/e – especially with a nuclear weapon in the middle east, would be an irreversible and stupid decision that would have far-reaching, long-lasting consequences regionally and across the world, both easily anticipated (i.e. radioactive fallout) and unforeseen; ergo is not something to be treated with the same cavalier attitude Donald Trump has towards the idea. That he has the actual power to do so and clearly has the same “act now, think of consequences later” attitude some of you do is fucking terrifying to me.

Think of the unforeseen consequences Trump’s little poorly-planned foray into Iran has had, that had him backpedaling fast enough to win the Tour de France in reverse. Some of them we haven’t even gotten to yet, I’m sure, as it’s still an ongoing debacle. You want to tell me, with a straight face, that glassing Israel and the aftermath thereof is going to be less messy than… well, gee, just about any course of action that does not involve doing that?

Can you walk me through it? The aftermath, I mean. Because sure, I can see a lot of problems you might think would just go away with Israel vaporized, but I somehow really doubt they’re all going to be wrapped up nicely with a bow. But perhaps I just lack vision.

no, I do not believe that indiscriminate mass murder and wanton destruction is an acceptable solution for any of the world’s problems. If you do, I’d suggest seeking therapy.

Now I’d never normally be in favor of kicking dogs, not even robot ones; however…

GUYS I SOLVED THE ALIGNMENT PROBLEM! We’re saved from evil AI!

I would also add, probably watch alone. Not exactly a great movie to watch with family, nor for a romantic date. Could maybe crack some good dark jokes with friends if you’ve got the right kind of fucked-up buddies, but that’s about the only possible “enjoyable and not awkward shared viewing of Deliverance” I can envision.

Operation Fortitude II: Pneumatic Boogaloo

not every showerthoughts-worthy post is necessarily envisioned in a shower

Also, if it’s been more than a few days, take a shower for me, homie. If you won’t do it for you, do it for me. Depression is a fuck.

I’ll be damned.

Now we just need to find out if the bear’s Catholic, and we’ll be set.
