This was where he stopped

I tried using dark magic to get the ghost of big structural Bailey to haunt Schumer’s Baileys but just in a passive stares-at-you kinda way. Like the dog from the Omen.

I dunno if it worked.

Nice of them to make it official

Trump really fucked up one thing America had going for it: yeah its a pit of snakes with nuclear arms but its a reliable pit.

Now that he’s playing hot potato with the wheel and careening all over we lost the reliability.

Now we’re just a hole in the ground full of assholes. Duplicitous shady side talking assholes. Whoops.

When libs quote lofty ideals that they themselves do not uphold because liberalism is an ideology of capitalism not freedom, humanity, and justice.

I don’t think there are valid criticisms of climate change that aren’t at the least materialist if not outright Marxist. Every other ideology can’t put on their grownup pants and admit where and what the problem is. The coldest reactionaries say “well I guess we hit the capitalism button until we transform into some kind of armed escape pod and shoot our way out.” The abundance libs meanwhile say “don’t be a monster, we’ll hit the capitalism button until it poops out some magical technology to fix the environment” as they continue to build between 50-99% of the armed escape pod infrastructure for the reactionaries. Between them the real pragmatic players of hard ball, steely-nerved, say “you’re both radical, we’ll hit the button and shoot our way out if we have to, only as a last resort if that magic shit doesn’t work.” They agree with and contribute to 50-99% of the infrastructure the reactionaries inevitably will rely on.

All three will accuse you of magical thinking if your solution involves not hitting the capitalism button.

So if you recognize the scale and scope of the problem and the role of capitalist production in creating it you only have one direction to go.

They are following the natural and good inclination to “follow the money” but because they’re liberals they think it’s like literally shady guys passing manilla envelopes.

Libs and chuds both have like an imagination terminus, a horizon of reality guided by media. So the chud convinced of Soros Bucks and Antifa Supersoldiers and the lib convinced of Russiagate Election Hacker Cheeto Putino stand on opposite edges of the same chasm of ignorance hurling insults at each other.

The real reason why Macron got slapped

Might as well be, they earned it.

They apportioned the kinetic quid pro quo and determined the hostile sitrep commandeered an overwhelming display of force in order to non violently pacificationalize the body politic

Capitalism did it with film too. Priceless records destroyed so they could save a buck. Films from that age lost forever.

Games luckily are insured against the kind of physical degradation of a reel of film. But there’s a parallel within modern history for what’s going on.

And with games it gets extra funny because playing old games requires you to learn how they work which teaches you that valuable non-app computer experience they claim kids need while jamming an iPad into every hand.

So uh “learn to code” or whatever. Dumbass system. Glad people are trying to save digital media.

If you don’t vote for democrats I bet you’re one of those accelerationists, a word and thing I just learned about 2 days ago.

If you rearrange the letters of “DEI” it spells “a1 Qaeda plan to destroy America”

Patriots go to stand-by pattern Delta-Romeo and wait.

“How dare you ask me to share some of the money I got for nothing”

Rather than the 70 years as a SSR I bet they fixate on a weird period of 1941-1944 Ukraine

I’ll believe anything is truly deleted when I die. Until then I’m not taking any company at their word.

Never forget. These assholes. The ones in fuckin’ charge right now. The very same neolibs and tech people you see in the headlines. Most of them are still around. These are the same assholes that turned the internet into a nazi incubator in their attempts to monetize it.

You know that old philosophy joke that goes “if by pushing a button you got a million bucks but a person at random (not you) suddenly dies - would you press the button?”

Imagine instead a machine where every time you pressed it you got money but out in the world it converted a random person (not you) into a nazi. Would you push the button?

And for the finance ghouls and neolib goblins and techbros they’d push that button until the horde of freshly minted fascists physically dragged them from the control panel.

And we know this because that’s exactly what they did to the internet. In fact they are still hitting that button! Frantically! And some of the techbros hitting the nazi button are nazis themselves.

So yeah not trusting anything they say about data

Whenever missionaries start doing their “outreach as a restaurant” stunt the odds of it going cult or cult-adjacent go through the roof. I dunno why. All I can kinda figure is that working at a restaurant is the closest thing to working on a small family farm.

Sleeper agent Hawk Tuah’s sabotage has borne fruit at last.

Vladimir Putin goes into the aviary of the Kremlin to consult the orb-gazing warlock that dwells therein. Cloaked and hooded, the reanimated dickless corpse of Grigori Rasputin shuffles amongst the stacks of cages, doling out handfuls of seed from a burlap sack while the pigeons make an absolute racket. “You seek informatskaya?” Rasputin asks without pausing his labor, making bird noises and clucking while waiting for Putin to reply.

“Noskaya,” Putin answers. “I need magickskaya. Spellskayas. The old shit.”

“This will require a sacrifice.” Rasputin rasped. “Skaya,” he added quickly. He poked a bony figure at one of the pigeons rattling around the cages fighting over birdseed.

“You can haveskaya the hotdog man.” Putin’s answer was ice cold. Rehearsed.

Rasputin’s eyes widened and he sucked air through his teeth in appraisal. “A powerful sacrifice will make a powerful effect,” the words both a boast and a warning. “What is it you wish to do?”

“I want some people to think that I am making their kids gayskaya.”
