SLWKRT - “Slow Kart” Grumpy democratic-socialist disabled vet millennial who has no idea why they are even here. I post photos of cars, cats, and booze (and occasionally rant). Ok maybe more than occasionally.

“The King will reply, Truly, why didn’t you give them an involuntary injection?” Wait a damn minute…Grok!!! Why do you do this?! Matthew 25: 40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
I’m sure Butch was just “practicing his politics the right way” or whatever bullshit dismissal they assign to white supremacists…
Just gotta love those double-standards. The “left” is always held to a standard that is unattainable. Then it self-imposes a standard of “they go low, we go high” that has never worked and will never work.
Correction: new to me!
@nkjemisin.bsky.social Always excited for the new work.
How dare I not accept my stoning with gratitude?!
A lot of this “toe the line and don’t speak ill of the white nationalist” going on. Way too much legitimizing of his “views/opinions” instead of actually looking at them and seeing them for the hatred they are.
*modern day KKK Fixed that for y’all.
If this is going to turn into some Tucker Carlsonesque “the Rebels were terrorists” discussion I’m just going to hop the next ship back to Mandalore and sit this one out. Y’all have fun. Byeeeeeee.

I saw a review headline stating “Mark Hamill is embracing his villain era.” I wanted to hold up a Joker poster and remind them that you have already done that. This is just the first time we get the full experience. I’m excited.
I’m sure that article was fair and balanced…
A board room of Nancy Pelosis.
Yeah there’s quite a rush to humanize him, but I really don’t see why. He certainly didn’t for his “enemies”. Enemies that did nothing to provoke him except simply exist.
That’s what my grandpas always said. So did my Drill Sergeants.
That’s the thing, Barrack Obama could’ve solo Rambo style tracked down the shooter and publicly executed him personally. It would not have mattered. No response will satisfy them. You couldn’t turn the cheek fast enough, and if you did they’d see it as a sign of weakness.
Why should I be expected to be the bigger person when he literally called for me, friends of mine, and my family members to be stoned to death? It’s a strange belief that empathizing with him may “tone down the rhetoric” or somehow appease the right. It won’t. It’s a fools errand.
Just making my Thanksgiving weekend even better. Detroit thanks you.
Instead of selling supplements, you can give away vaccines. You can create a Substack while avoiding completely how Substack enables the monetization of Neo-Nazism. The opportunities for parody are endless.
I think it’s time to start practicing your Alex Jones impression or pull a Colbert and create a fake left equivalent character.
I don’t like Jerry Seinfeld as a person. I also don’t find him funny. Not now or ever. Does that make me an anti-Semite? No. Because I can separate the man from the people. Just as I can separate the actions of a government from its citizens, a religion, and a race of people. So “Free Palestine”.
Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”
Once you attack and dehumanize someone for simply existing, based on factors they have no control over (race, gender, sexual orientation, etc), then you have lost the right to empathy. There is nothing political here. Just repeated bigotry, racism, sexism, homophobia, and every other kind of hate.
In a surprise to me, the #HIGNFYE podcast went down a brief rabbit hole about Detroit style pizza. I appreciate @michaelianblack.bsky.social’s hard stance on how good it is (he’s right), but I take great issue with Jimmy’s pro stance on Jet’s. It’s mediocre at best. Come visit us. There’s better.
Why prevent tragedy when you can profit from it?! It’s the American way!
So the “do your own research” crowd is going to start mandating the use of the “I did my own research” machine. This will end well. Surely.
You talkin bout Pedotus?
Buy some great books from @marthawells.com and help an amazing charity in World Central Kitchen. You won’t regret it. www.humblebundle.com/books/martha... #murderbot #marthawells
The future is now old man.
This is who we need to take seriously. This is real leadership. Not “I love harassing the homeless and trans people” @governor.ca.gov (Gavin Newsom). @peters.senate.gov, @slotkin.senate.gov, and Gov Whitmer take note. We’re done with bootlickers and centrists. There is no negotiating with fascists.
Can confirm. Made my appointment, walked in, got COVID and Flu vaccines, walked out. 10 minute process. No questions asked. Just “here’s your jabs”. Sure I’m fat and a former smoker, but the wonderful people at CVS didn’t even ask. So I thanked her for making me Magneto and laughed maniacally.
Laughing in the face of all the chaos is also very cathartic. I can’t count how often I’d listen to Lewis Black rants in Iraq and use it as my method to vent frustration.
I think many of us that grew up during the early stages of The Daily Show and Colbert Report owe a lot to it. Not only was it funny, but it forced us to think critically about what we were being told. To question the status quo. Push back is necessary. I’m happy to see that continue. It’s vital.
We need real leadership. Not Silicon Valley boot lickers.
Yeah. Hegseth is the type of guy you label a “buddy fucker” in the service. He just continues on afterwards by licking the boots of those that continue to screw veterans (and everyone else).
Wokenstein’s Monster. Reminding us all just how shitty our history can be.
ChatGPT, the technology equivalent of “I did my own research.”
He was in it in the first place?
Hasn’t Detroit been through enough already?
Can we quit with the “he can’t do this without Congress” bs? They continue to roll over and give him what he wants. It’s not even a question anymore. I prefer to just accuse them of being the wokest of woke. Acknowledging America’s history of aggression. Forcing our kids to not see us as flawless.
This is such a woke move. Naming it after the thing we’ve done constantly for hundreds of years. Acknowledging all of our past, present, and future aggression. Wokest of woke. What will our children think? Are we teaching them to feel guilty about their heritage?!
It’s the crime’s fault, clearly.
Yay! The Lions are back! Oh god damn it. Dan Orlovsky is back too. Haven’t we suffered enough this year?!
Oh I know one. It’s the one constantly lauding her time in the CIA in Iraq and palling around with defense contractors. Who could that be?
I’d rather remove all doubt that I’m an idiot and write it myself.
Import from folder. Loving this.
No Detroit? Ouch.
Find some thick toilet paper. You’ve been warned.
Oh come on. Coffin corner punt MAGA was right there!
They’ll stop to see us in Metro Detroit first. We’ll be sure to give yall up north a heads up.
The world still has room for more villains or at very least reboots. Don’t forget, everyone disrespected him or bet against him. 199 blah blah blah what a victim blah.
Just scheduled my updated COVID and Flu vaccine for this year. Eat shit RFK. May your 5G signal be strong, your body most magnetic, your sperm infertile, and your microchips sharing all the data.
“Bone-petite” indeed. 🙄 Just respond with a picture of potato salad with seasoning, because you know they aren’t making it that way.
What is he going to do next? Type out “ZZZZzzzzz”
It never ceases to amaze me how an administration that has an alarming overlap with the Klan and Neo-Nazis continues to punish anything Palestinian in the name of “fighting anti-semitism”.
Maybe if you had a streaming service. CNN+ but it’s pronounced “Ugh…CNN”
All well deserved. Congrats!
This right here is why I’m not social in-person. Today’s interaction: Me: “Are you all closed tomorrow for the holiday?” Cashier: “No but I don’t celebrate pagan holidays anyways.” Me: “Fair enough.” *instantly regrets trying to be social*
@governor.ca.gov forgot to tag you. My apologies.
You know it’s bad when no one even took the time to apply his clown makeup.
This is Detroit. When has it ever been perfect? It’s “perfect” for us or perfectly imperfect, and that’s exactly why we love it.
How often have you pushed for bipartisanship and played along out of fear of “supreme leader”? You’re part of the problem. Fuckin spine made of jello. Go brag about Iraq some more you CIA lackey. Let people who will actually resist and fix things lead.
Caturday for Clare. A break from the outrage for dad. #caturday
Yeah, we all like watching Gavin troll the orange idiot, but don’t forget for a second that Gavin is also garbage. It’s why he’s so effective at trolling. He is definitely unqualified to be president unless you want continued cruelty against those unable to defend themselves.
HOOFUCKINGAH!
Jon Stewart tackles the GOP's refusal to address gun violence unless it's carried out by a non-citizen
You thought he was sexy as an animated rat (no judgment), just wait till you see him as a Vulcan!
DEI killed Ashley Babbitt! Just kidding, a bullet did when the treasonous lunatic went against the oath and assaulted Federal Officers trying to protect the idiots who are now honoring her. This pisses me off not only as a citizen but as a veteran.
But keeping both heads?
The heckles will continue until you DO YOUR FUCKING JOB AND TAKE ACTION. So tired of this endless “oh I learned so much from this tragedy.” Clearly you didn’t spend too much time on methods to PREVENT the fucking tragedy. Go study any other country that takes gun safety seriously. Do work.
Communities are exhausted. How about taking steps to prevent communities from repeating this process? Don’t placate us. You, SENATOR, make the laws. Do. Write. Take action. That’s why WE elected YOU. So stop the platitudes, get off social media, and DO. YOUR. FUCKING. JOB.
I will heckle Slotkin, Peters, and any other MI elected official that continues to offer insincere platitudes on social media about the issue instead of doing their fucking job and addressing it with laws and action. Regardless of party.
No false equivalency, and the issue goes back before the current administration. Port Arthur in 96. Columbine in 99. I was 12 when Columbine happened. I’m 39 now. Still, mass shootings at schools continue at a record rate. The right may not hold leadership accountable, but the left does and I am.
They are all complicit, and Democrats deserve just as much scorn as Republicans on this issue. She is my representative so I will address her. Believe me my fury for Republicans is just as strong. No one gets a free pass unless you’re actually trying to solve the problem.
General summary from all US politicians today: If only there was someone somewhere that could do something to fix this problem that has been a consistent issue for 25+ years. Want to pass a bill punishing trans kids? No problem. They’re on it. Want them to protect all kids from gun violence? Nope.
Never underestimate the determination of a fat (internally) cat. Be glad he hasn’t chewed open everything in that cabinet.
Don’t ask yourself. Don’t placate us. You , SENATOR, make the laws. Do. Write. Take action. That’s why WE elected YOU. So stop the platitudes, get off social media, and DO. YOUR. FUCKING. JOB.
You know the lesson I learned in Iraq? The people in charge will gladly sell you out to line their pockets. Your time in the senate has done little to make me disbelieve this.
Flavor Flavvvvv! Fuck yes man. They don’t want to hear it, but it works.
Get to work. Let’s see your proposal. The time for thoughts, prayers, and talk is over. It is possible to tackle this problem. Australia did it. Others have to. We want action.
Now’s your chance kids, buy a pack of cigarettes!
You mean it hasn’t been helping all this time?
Noooo! You can’t kill Mechahitler!
The inevitable wave of copy pasta “thoughts and prayers” from various politicians is coming to social media near you. So let me preemptively say “SHUT THE FUCK UP AND DO YOUR FUCKING JOBS. FIX THIS.” Tired of this bit being endlessly relevant (despite loving Kyle). youtu.be/zKbXHKiu6-M?...
But you’ll concede and give it to them anyways, free of charge. Because that’s what you do.
Hail to the cowards running. Hail to the oath ignoring. Hail! Hail to Michigan Your health care means fuck all! Get em Dana.
How about you see it from a town hall?
The Republicans saw this and thought “why stop at children? Why not control all phases of life?”
What was the motto of the boarding school in Arrested Development? “Children should be neither seen nor heard.”
Listening to a Community College Police Chief give a presentation on cover vs concealment, sounds various firearms make, and how location/environment changes firearm sounds. This is a well done presentation. Simultaneously, I’m horrified. This is our life. This is necessary. How dystopian.
Feel free to make that tour as short as possible. Go Green and piss off fascist enabler.
Fuck. Yes.
“War All the Time” has been in heavy rotation lately.
It’s a solid adaptation that even improves on the original in many ways. Rare for anything let alone a video game adaptation (which are historically terrible).
You know. You’re right, and when you’re right you’re right.
The star of The Dog Who Saved Christmas?!
You mean war tech? When was the last time we were on the defense? I can think of plenty of times where we were the aggressor. How about you invest your time and energy fixing the messes the military industrial complex created? I mean sure, it won’t line your pockets like you are now.
PEDOTUS strikes again!
Their MS Paint broke.
