The problem here is that low birth arguments don't work if you have high unemployment, overcrowding, homelessness, AI threatening jobs everywhere, global warming.... It's just a non-starter in this environment.

The problem here is that low birth arguments don't work if you have high unemployment, overcrowding, homelessness, AI threatening jobs everywhere, global warming.... It's just a non-starter in this environment.
That one triggered me bad enough I had to leave the theater. I grew up around quite a bit of racism and it turns my stomach.
I want to find a way to get Bill Nighy and Bill Nye in the same project.
Give it a minute. They'll find that it's Michelle Obama's speech that they used AI to generate his voice or some similar insanity.
That's how you know he had nothing to do with it. And that he's not able to tell them NOT to release stuff like that that doesn't intimidate someone or bully minorities. And I guarantee he didn't write that graduation speech either.
They're putting out tribute videos to try to make him seem wise, but the music is totes "in memoriam" when you listen to it. You don't play that music when you're alive. I bet he begged Putin to keep him out of jail, so Vlad made him a martini. "Drink this. I guarantee you will never be jailed."
...and a followup question. Has there been a Trump press conference that was void of falsehoods?
If they won't let anybody close, he's probably using a body double. Probably has like an Armenian accent. No questions.
Did he golf twice or did he send out photos of him golfing in different clothes than he had on that day? Cuz when they won't let the press watch him play he's just out there where the microphones can't hear what he's saying. He sucks at golf. It's an excuse to have a secure GOP syndicate meeting.
He's not decomposing. He's letting weakness rot away and leaving only strength behind!
I lost it on #4, and as I was laughing, he mentioned "losing it," which made me laugh even HARDER! ROTFL!
Sometimes I get someone who follows me that I look at their profile and they have like 1500 followers and 5000 following and 1 post. We are here for very different reasons.
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
If I was in the WH press corp: "People are saying that Trump has Polonium poisoning, a substance used by Russian spys in assassinations. Is that true, and a quick follow up question, are you not lying about it being not true?"
Finally someone who hears AND listens.
I do wish he would do us all a favor and die soon. I really want to change my avatar and name, but as long as he's in the oval, I'll be on anger overdrive. It's tiring, but necessary work.
NO!!! Now I have Woody and Donny in my head doing an "Eiffel Tower" while... I can't finish the description. It's setting off my gag reflex. You just know they hung out on the Epstein Island. Let's check the files and find out!
Just add a simple directorial note that everybody should act 1% faster. Problem solved.
Found my vintage KEGL shirt. Sleeveless as all proper rock apparel should be. Still fits! Yes, I'm in the shower. It has the little shelf in the wall that's at the right height and loads of tiny bottles to prop the phone up. =)
So, they're just gonna post old photos of Trump playing golf TWO WEEKS AGO and say "See? Healthy as a horse!"? Which horse are they comparing him to? This one?
Anybody know what these are? Found under a bathroom sink. I really hope I don't regret asking. They're wax with a string, kinda like an emergency candle, but thicker wick maybe? 4.5" long. Maybe something eats candle wax?
Trump medals should all be clawed back. If Rush was buried with it, dig him up and get it back, melt them down, and recast them as a metallic bikini top that gets gifted to the next winner of Drag Race.
Know who else got the Distinguished Medal of Honor? Epstein. Look it up. It's in the Epstein Files. They should release them to prove me wrong.
Got an electric leaf blower. Put the battery on to see how loud it would be. It was pointed at a stack of photos I hadn't put away from mom's memorial. I think her death certificate went... well, I'm still looking for where that flew. Um. It works. yay.
😖
We're going to have a city that doesn't let the National Guard roll through. At some point, a city will test if the US armed forces are willing to take a bullet to defend illegal orders. Because people WILL defend their homes.
In a way, I think you're on to something, but I think it's his existence that's threatening to expose so many others that he had to go, hoping that when he's dead, the Epstein notes will go in the fireplace never to be exposed.
Putin's Polonium martinis have a hell of a hangover.
If he dies tomorrow, Labor Day weekend turns into a 4 day weekend. Hell, I say we make it a summer week off! What better way to celebrate the death of the Fake Tan King than people getting actual tans?
Sometimes ya just have to try it and see if you can pull it off. 🤷♂️
That's not what redneck means in Texas. Always been outdoor manual labor making your neck sunburned.
I hear they pay really well if you live through the process.
Or Polonium poisoning hair loss. He did consult Putin about something and came out looking like he had DEAD MAN written all over his face, and Putin loves his polonium.
Bigger hat to cover the chemo hair loss.
I want DNA verification. I think it would be amazing to find out that only Eric is his and all the rest were milkman babies.
RICO the whole GOP.
Albertson's now has the option to "make this order a gift." So you can place an order for groceries for someone else to pick up for themselves. If that's not a sign of the times, I don't know what is. "Paper or plastic? Are you buying food for you or are you feeding a 3rd party?"
Doing some VCR repair and needed a VHS I wouldn't care if it got eaten. Perfect! Funny how mom liked to buy things like this, but not WATCH them. The shrink wrap was intact. I'm pretty sure this will never be a collectable.
Or, "If the day ends in Y, Trump's statement is a lie." if you like proper grammar and all that frivolousness.
We should flood the net w/ "I Will Remember You" tribute vids of Trump and his friends for his memorial service. Somebody pay one of the reporters to ask "What time did the President die?" and then follow with, "I don't understand the answer. OK, How did he die?" Keep rejecting her "HE'S NOT DEAD!"
The former mayor had just delivered a homeless woman's baby. He had no antiseptic, so he used some of her whisky to clean cord before cutting it. "And THAT is why I smell like this ossif-offiserer. I am not drunk. I'm a goddamn HERO!"
Exactly and the more we demand to see that the president isn't dead, the more he'll use to prove us wrong. If he's suddenly energetic at one of his speeches, you'll know he's on hospice.
I'd request the White House provide a live video stream of the POTUS EKG monitor, but those are notoriously finicky about coming off or interference glitching the signal, so it would flatline several times a day and I don't think my heart could handle that much excitement/disappointment cycling.
Got wind? Were we not cheering loud enough to hear. Fine. We'll turn it up.
"If they day ends in Y, Trumps statement is a lie." Easy little mnemonic device for ya.
You misunderstand. This is exactly what prednisone does to you. You can be missing organs/limbs and the steroids will tell you "ZEUS WAS A PUSSY COMPARED TO YOU!" My dad's oncologist warned him that steroids will give you the strength to walk to your own funeral. More you use, faster you burn out.
Winning by any means necessary is the GOP way.
HA! Adding to the menu now.
Because CNN is doing the minimal effort version of news. They're just taking stories, rubber stamping their logo on it, and hitting send. A bot job. Democracy Docket is reporting.
Hey, the Laser Tag era was blacklight's rebirth. No longer was the UV science limited to velour posters of demonic horses in glowing hues. We could use it to damage eyes of children later in life for fun!
One doesn't simple replace a cult leader with a replacement, drop-in cult leader.
I think he's going to force them to keep jacking him up with steroids.
I have my fan club newsletter from Fox. It cracks me up every time I see it. hell yeah. I was that nerd.
My hustle will be the food truck offering tea, coffee, water, various diuretic fruits, and DJT toilet paper for his biggest fans.
This is never going away, is it?
I heard a rumor Fetterman died too. He forgot to breath between trying to remember which party he was elected to support by the voters.
Klathu Obama Necktie!
We can have people drink dyes that turn your pee bright orange for pissing on his grave!
The only thing that would make this seem more clickbaity would be the inclusion of "that they don't want you to know about."
Probably using the sickly body double he plans to bury so he can make his escape later.
Just read, "Labor Day Weakened" and started to think "WTF did he do to weaken Lab... oh. weekend. never mind."
She does her own research.
The whole ordeal felt like he was trying to get us to leave so they could start the orgy or something. Like we were in the way by attending the club for too long. I think that's the last comedy club I've been to.
friends left in the audience. He chastised me for wearing shorts, which I took as low fruit, but smiled. MFer proceeded to laser eye deliver a bomb set at me as I made faces of "That one stunk." Eventually he switched to obviously older material about a dodecahedron or something that made me laugh.
Remembering the time I learned you're supposed to leave a comedy show before they kick you out. I didn't know that if you stay, they will keep sending out more and more comedians to test their WIP sets on you. Charles Fleischer, the voice of Rodger Rabbit, came out and I think it was me and my 2
Was really hoping the motivation I had yesterday would carry over to today, but alas it rained, which means fungus in the air which makes me a reactionary, not focused. If you threw anything at my head right now, I'd probably catch or block it without looking, but focusing on a task? Nah.
Jester Dormitory at UT Austin was designed by prison architects. It's literally a prison where they hand out keys to inmates. The two towers of that building houses so many students in such a small space that the one address is it's own zip code.
Cops covering their badges with black tape as a tribute to fallen officers always felt to me like a tradition that started by hiding your identity and then lynching anybody you think might have been involved. Just a tiny hood for their badge.
Depends on how many rounds hit those two people, doesn't it?
I was contemplating going streaking through the neighborhood with an American flag flowing behind me. sigh.
I've seen a few jokes in the credits go by that I was able to read the first few words before it was gone. Roku doesn't let you pause or rewind live streaming channels. Bastards.
"Am I being detained?"
I see spending money that we wouldn't have had to spend, if Fred had just put on a goddamn condom, as money that goes right into the Trump pyre. It's his fault it has to be spent, but I get your angle too.
Oh, I say we spend a fortune on him. Undoing everything he's touched will cost a lot of money. Restoring safety nets is expensive. Rebuilding the scientific community will take money. The RICO trial against the GOP is worth a billion alone. We need healing prosecution of all their crimes. Lawyers=💰.
Ah. Yep. I'd looked away because of the recap footage. My brain zones out when they reuse footage. I'm a video editor so seeing shots a reused flips a switch in my head that it's not interesting anymore. LOL
Oh, I'm going full on Cristal champagne. I'm not buying the bottle until I see DNA verification that it's not a body double.
Roku has a Xena channel now that just plays a 24/7 loop of the full run. I'm at the mercy of whatever they're paying at the moment. I guess I missed that one.
Song rehearsing in my head is "Na na, na-na, na-na. n'na, na, nah. Donny's in a box, in a box, Donny's in a boooox."
It's all just speculative fiction. The only rule is that the world has to have rules that aren't the real world, whether that's magic or FTL rockets or dragons or robots. If you can do things you can't do in the real world, it's speculative fiction. Telling people they're not fictioning right feels🤢
Do not mourn that he lives. Celebrate that he's still got more suffering to endure, as so many have suffered at his choices. Relish his resolution that there is no cure coming.
This sounds like an improv comic opened for a punk rock concert and asked the audience for random things to include in a bit.
He can't type for himself anymore. Where's the lazy all caps? This is dictated to someone else who knows how punctuation works. He's not even texting anymore. That's how sick he really is.
Yeah. He killed him, or is actively killing him at this moment, but it hasn't taken it's course yet.
When I say "crypto," do you feel excited? That's a major indicator.
Isn't that just garden variety toxic masculinity? Andrew Tate's Disease. Being utterly useless at everything, but projecting confidence about everything?
I think passing a law that links the highest paycheck to the lowest paycheck in the company would lead to a lot more janitors driving BMWs. If you want to get rich, you have to take everybody who made you rich with you on the way up.
CAGE MATCH! ...with explosives. Two men enter. That's it. They enter. End of story. Let them blow each other up and get the hell out of all of our lives forever. Their obituaries will trigger celebrations for decades after they're gone.
That was a long walk.
The 80s will always be a benchmark era. It's all just before cellphones and the Internet. For those two reasons, the 80s will always be a target location for movies that want to put people in a world without answers or instant communication. It was the last time we were really left alone, mostly.
I think Mr Noggin McHeady Brain has ruled out sleep any time soon. My vigilance mode has triggered. Gee. Thanks Donald. Just what I wanted.
I'd call this "self-fulfilling," but "filling" feels like the absolute wrongest word in this situation.
Mom said many times that she thought Trump would commit suicide. If Putin got him to pour a polonium martini into his own mouth, can I say she was right?
Looking back on that whipped puppy look after talking to Putin, I'm guessing that trip was to get an antidote that didn't happen in time, or something along that line.
Oh my god Big wind went through with it! Everybody go outside and blow! Blow like you've never blown before! Blow till you get dizzy!
The system running their search engine optimization algorithm, to keep stories dropping on a regular basis, has no way of knowing how to handle a developing situation, so it keeps on posting the next story in the hopper. Unfortunately they probably have AI loading and running the system, so.... LOL
I am so mad at myself for understanding that reference.
"I can fit a whole sectional through this opening. An oval sofa that goes all the way around the room."
Russia has some very slow acting poisons. Putin could have made him drink any number of them—as a shot, so he does it to himself.
What if "they" took Trump out to take the heat off of the Epstein files since "their" names are all over the playground signup sheets. We really need that to keep going.
