Awesome. Thank you for the tips!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

I’ll go do that. Thank you.

I still wish someone, somewhere could have backed up Geocities. That was a huge chunk of Internet history lost.

100% deserves it for being both stupid and inexcusably cheap.

This is one issue where, historically, if you give a crap about uninterrupted air travel, you should never vote Republican.

Remember when Reagan fired all the air traffic controllers to break their strike? And the deregulation that has made air travel not only uncomfortable, but a miserable (and somehow still overly expensive) experience? And now you’ve got Donald’s government refusing to pay people properly, something that he has done for his entire adult life in both public and private ventures.

Republicans treat airline workers like doo doo.

Important to note that the military itself, up to and including the chairman of the joint chiefs, told Donald not to bomb Iran.

It’s understandable that they’re a little pissed off, since this truly unilateral war is getting American reservists killed in service to Israel. Donald thinks he can order up world diplomacy like a Big Mac, especially after Venezuela, and he’s finding that maybe he fucked with the wrong kid on the playground this time.

Same thing happened when Alabama tried what Donald is doing. Mass deportations are very disruptive.

Politicians love them because of the easy, performative cruelty and most politicians are wealthy and insulated from the economic effects, but increased prices, empty schools, and crops dying in the field for lack of field workers have a dramatic effect on local economies.

i don’t agree

Doesn’t change the fact that you’re wrong.

What intellectual compromises must people who thought that a felon, rapist, pedo, bankrupt, fraudster would do good work on the economy ? or is it more likely he’s a racist trans hater like they are ?

History tells us that when the majority are starving, change is the most important factor. They had four years of knowing definitively that Biden and Harris, with all their stupid happy speeches, didn’t care if their families starved. Of course they voted to get Democrats out. So wild that Democrats insisted they couldn’t win if they ran on affordability, and then Republicans ran on affordability and it became a red wave in 2024.

it was because he promised to hurt brown people and because the brown people who supported him thought it would be other brown people. That and the trans and gays thing is why he was elected.

No, it wasn’t, and that Donald has lost so many districts he won in 2024 since unleashing the Gestapo proves that. People wanted illegal immigrants deported. They didn’t want legal immigrants to be terrorized, and the voters proved that at the polls.

you’d have to suffer some sort of mental defect to think he was going to do a great job on the economy, he’s about what’s good for DT, not what’s good for the US

You’re being awfully cavalier about other people’s mental defects when your point of ignores basic, verifiable facts.

after his year long backstabbing tour.

It’s wild that someone with his status hasn’t figured out that maybe we shouldn’t bully every single country in the world, if only out of self-preservation and our own self-interest.

I really hate that we as a people no longer care if our presidents have functioning brains.

I remember these discussions being had in the 90’s, and the excuse was always: “But it’ll cost a lot and take decades.”

And now here we are. Decades.

No one tell RFK.

Christ, I hope it happens. Someone’s metaphorical head needs to roll for this embarrassing, murderous rampage.

This is not news.

This, more than any other issue, is why Donald is going to lose big in November. Because he’s never done his own shopping, or opened his own medical bills, or had to take his own kids to day care, he has no concept whatsoever of what it means to live in America right now.

Affordability is also the only reason why he was re-elected, and he’s doing the Biden/Harris thing and trying to gaslight people into thinking things are better, which is not only going to backfire, but he will be so much more unpopular by election time that even the dirty tricks they want to pull won’t be valid tactics by then. They’ve even stopped the gerrymandering push because Donald’s own coalition has become so hostile to him that they can no longer rely on voters who pulled the lever for Republicans just a year and a half ago.

Now, if only we could get thirty Kat Abughazalehs elected at the federal level so Dems might actually oppose something.

Ugh.

The service has been quite good for ten years.

Guess it was good while it lasted.

I hope she sues and makes it hurt.

If the shit hits the fan, and oil prices move up, it’s too late to complain… especially if your own president started an unnecessary war.

Wrong.

Every American has a right to complain here. Not only has our president broken his campaign promises on war, he had a record of disentangling us from foreign wars in his first term. (Most notably Syria and Afghanistan.) So, unlike some of his other promises, this one carried weight.

He did not run on warmongering. He ran on peace.

And as for gas prices in particular, people are barely scraping by and any drastic fluctuation in the cost of essentials threatened stability.

Absolutely. Also why I want to throat punch every person I hear make jokes about egg prices.

An important note, to be sure. In Afghanistan we displaced tens of millions of people, and all we heard from our government and most Americans was: “Welp, they must just hate us for our freedom.”

For a while there was a VR app for Google Earth that allowed you to visit museums virtually. This is a wonderful use of modern technology.
