Also why federal agencies are implementing polygraphs and loyalty tests; because the fascism is going to be ratcheted up to a terrifying degree, which can’t happen if the people in your agency actually possess a conscience.

Pardon my French, but these motherfuckers are the welfare queens.

He did, for now.

It’s not a done deal, though. We’ve voted down Right-To-Work three times. Missourians are tenacious.

So, is Israel just going to war with everyone?

This motherfucker thinks his seat is safe if he just does this performative kayfabe nonsense. Our state voted for a $15 minimum wage and required paid sick leave in 2024, so I guarantee you, now is not the time to be taking a dump on the poor.

Obama didn’t give up anything.

He was just doing what he was paid to do.

I wish I could still believe that the US was this virtuous.

I appreciate this comment so much. Praise the Sun!

That is a fun fact. Thank you!

I saw the bigger ones from far away, but when I got close and the babies were sunbathing too, I went into full swoon.

Luckily all my neighbors and I seem to be very good about giving the wildlife space, so they’re not too afraid to be out in the open.

It’s always fun taking a walk into the park and running into a few cute little babies.

And folks here in the US are making jokes about the FBI demanding polygraphs and loyalty tests, overlooking the fact that this is happening (along with the vulgar overfunding of ICE) in anticipation of a greater and more extended fascist crackdown. It’s the deliberate removal of any conscience from our governing system, and we all can look at history and understand why that’s happening and what it means for the future.

Just don’t come here.

Americans could benefit from a better diet.

Sadly, yes, living a healthier lifestyle is going to be a person’s best option in the wake of health care being even more enshittified.

Hard to do in a nation where there are food deserts, gym memberships a luxury, and the nearest health care provider is upwards of 50 miles away.

This, to me, stinks of the same garbage people are fed about recycling, when we all know that it’s the billionaire class and their institutional, astronomical waste and energy usage that is the real problem, not individuals tossing out the dozen soda cans they drink in a week.

Oof. I didn’t know that.

The browns haven’t won a championship in sixty years.

And their owners think the public should buy them a new stadium.

lolololololol

I realize you’re being sarcastic, but I’m going to answer you anyway. Biden didn’t do anything meaningful to change things because he and his family were profiting handsomely off the status quo.

I saw this yesterday and had to re-read it a couple of times to make my brain grasp that, yes, the plague is still a thing.

Wild.

That’s some down-home terminology right there. :)

Theses people can be brought into the fold if you don’t spend your time doing victory laps for being right.

I actually agree with you, but I don’t think these people in particular are the ones coming into the fold. It’s the ones who are realizing they’ve been lied to and changing their minds, and yes, people really, really need to stop throwing it back in those people’s faces.

To me, we’ve hit 1941, and folks need to understand that you’re going to have to ally with a few Russians with whom you have a mutual disdain if you want to take down the fascists.
