Platner: I believe that input from working people is far more important than input from someone who simply has money. I believe that we shouldn’t be settling for crumbs while billionaires eat the cookie we baked.

Converting to Blueskyism by reciting the poster's creed
Go ahead and block me. I'll just mail my posts to your house
I can't tell you how much contempt I have for these simpering little tyrants. Tedious busybodies who should've never been given any power beyond their local HOA
Right wing politicians are hacks who use the government to harass people who disagree with them and litigate culture war grievances. Stop electing them unless you want the country to look like a twitter blue check comment section
ears much??
WH aide: Uhh has anyone seen the president Other aide who just threw out what he thought was a sack of old mashed potatoes: No
Every conservative principle that could have merit is already represented in the mainstream Democratic Party, not to mention fully abandoned by conservatives themselves. What's left? Bigotry, sadism, tantrums over corporate logos. This is what you're trying to find common ground with
One reason for Democrats to ditch their reflex to say "You have a point" to the other side is the right wing hasn't had a good point about anything in most of our lifetimes
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filling an IV bag from a murky puddle near Trump National's sixth tee. "The president needs parameciums," he tells the assembled media. "It's the only treatment proven to work in real testing." His golf cart is piled high with dozens of dead birds.
We dumped a president for being too old only to elect one who immediately died. You can't say that's not funny
podcasting like all forms of Content is only cringe and bad if used for evil
Millennials are middle aged now but not me. I stayed young somehow
feel like slim and fat chance should be a different amount of chance
Shaken up victim: Thankfully just then an 81 year old pervert happened to be passing by,
the baboon heart they gave him has failed. better luck next time donald!!
get her on the pod
Trump's contribution to our politics was exposing that conservatives don't care about any of the principles they've said are sacrosanct for 100 years, and all they wanted was to be openly evil instead of circuitously evil. The Democrats who win will be the ones who understand this and act like it
one of my friends just started law school lol
Not sure whose fault it is primarily that most people don't seem to know that the president is basically a manager whose job is to carry out the will of Congress, and not The Country's Boss
The lesson of the Trump campaigns, and particularly his second term, should be "Wow you can really do anything." Anyone who runs as a Democrat and acts like their hands are regrettably tied is either lying or doesn't have what it takes to win anyway
The other thing is, in a time when Donald Trump has won two presidential elections I simply don't believe that a candidate has to do this sort of too clever by half triangulation to win! If you're not good enough at politics to avoid throwing your own constituencies under the bus then don't run
Chatbots killing their users suggests that big tech has transitioned from simple parasite to parasitoid, indicating that keeping the host alive is no longer essential for their evolutionary strategy
Fox news dialing him in
His sequel to the inauguration speech he was writing himself
If I were him I'd schedule some posts to drop after I'm dead like "The lying media is saying my autopsy showed that my entire body was made of ass material! NOT TRUE!"
No! No!!
(pointing at my bed like sleepy Babe Ruth)
sorry who is this
He's acting like that was unprompted when it was a reply to something he said! The idea is it's not possible for a billionaire to express a thought that warrants such a reply, which is uhh unlikely lol
Paul Krugman had a piece on that today paulkrugman.substack.com/p/why-arent-...
happy birthday pal
We're going to have a big beautiful dark age, perhaps darker than ever before. And I think you'll be very happy
After the Supreme Court justices the biggest suckers are Big Money guys who think they'll do ok under this rotten regime. Countdown to the first CEO who has his company nationalized because a hot mic caught him making fun of our big beautiful president
He has the courage to challenge woke orthodoxy like "germs are real"
Bobby Fungus
I have complete faith in my health secretary, Robert Fungus Kennedy
Jobs websites are a list of things other people want you to do. There should be a website with a list of things that I want to do
How does he get these guys to agree to this
*opens up your fridge and sees you have 2% milk* hey bro you need to charge your milk
i'll do it for 19k
thankfully we have 9 wise sages whose job it is to set him straight regarding his constitutional role
I love to eat a meal with a fork or spoon
Dentist hit me with it yesterday and I was able to manage "Hang out with my dog" which is at least normal-adjacent. I almost said "This and that" which just sounds like I have something to hide
We gotta drop "What do you do for fun?" question from the small talk list. It's too hard. I always panic and say something like I like to eat lunch
Videogames are a waste of time. But so is your job.
I'm not sure Americans have a frame of reference for the sort of gangster government we have now. Any objective functions it performs are an afterthought. The law only used as a tool to punish political enemies and ignored in every other instance
I think cutesy stuff is fine if it's in service of decent goals, the reason this is perverse is they're sneering about exiling an innocent guy to a random country out of spite!
My mafia associates have invited me to go for a drive. They're insisting I sit up front as a show of respect to me
The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good
thanks brother
thank you my friend william
Very interesting that Taylor Swift got engaged mere months after I did. Get your own thing
No amount of appearing reasonable and trying to avoid provoking them will stop them from escalating against you. The only thing you'll do is inspire revulsion in everyone else: if you won't even stand up for yourself how can you stand up for anyone else
no!!
You may not like that it takes 100 years to pass some watered down social welfare program because of the constitution but that's also what protects us from dictatorship [some dumb slob does dictatorship in 6 months]
Too bad that our legal and institutional safeguards only work to prevent good policies. It would be cool if they also stopped the evil stuff
my man has greyscale
i'm the guy who invented the spike traps that pop out of temple walls. i hate my job. every day my boss says "why haven't we killed any archeologists" and i say "they haven't invented that yet." they pay me in tomb juice. i hate tomb juice. honestly i might just start working on my big boulder idea
Pushing a secret button in my garage and the wall flips around to reveal an entire armament of pristine podcaster mics
they're never on sale for holidays either it's bs
my roommate was trying to find the menu for a nearby bagel shop and instead found some of the most iconic slop I've ever seen. thanks food! :)
It's the weekend
you should start a podcast
His flunkies gonna have to paint themselves the same way
let's get this viral
We have to stay strategically silent until we win by default so we can use our power to (?)
This is slop for people who post AI generated images of trump and putin dressed as women kissing or whatever
The first rule of self defense when you're getting your ass kicked is to commission a poll to find out whether it would be popular for you to fight back
Having the Severance brain switch whenever I enter a grocery store. I know I'm supposed to be doing something here but I don't know what or why
orange man? bad
Kid everyone hates made himself the principal, surely now everyone has to respect him
is that based on anything other than him being a big boy
I'm not right wing but some of this "woke" stuff is a little over the top [6 months later] Slavery was fine. Your city is under martial law
I think part of the lure of these chatbots is the illusion that there's an easily accessible answer to every question. I'm a busy man, just tell me what the best laundry detergent is, and also whether climate change is real
it's just an ego thing like everything else i guess
i cant believe a country that has spent decades measuring success purely by the accumulation of material wealth has lost its moral compass
periodically you have to remind everyone on the posting website you're addicted to that you're wiser than them
*RFK Jr voice* We're going to cure cooties
Thank you colleague
I spent some time with an angry baby recently and it's over for you libs
Right this way sir
Classic ad hominem
Of course not. A B.A. in political science however,
motioning you to the ass shaped payment processor on the counter and you swipe your card between the cheeks
at least once a week you gotta have a cycle where someone declares some posts on the website "bluesky" to be the position of The Left
Vance doing one of those Day In The Life tiktoks but it's all blocks of time set aside for crying and getting heckled
JD Vance getting booed everywhere he goes so he has to ask the secret service to evacuate the entire city block so he can go to a restaurant is one of the few good subplots we have right now
Romney got that question I think in 2007 when he was running and similarly flubbed it lol. Entire campaign should be just this question and a 3-5 sentence response max
bsky.app/profile/rian...
sorry everyone i forgot to ask the chatbots whether martial law is good for the economy
*getting dragged off by goons* Nice try but i'm not taking the bait
Yeah like it's true he bombed iran because he wanted to look strong and handsome on the tv but also he bombed iran
Thanks I appreciate it
