i don't think they'll go trumptard tbh. that clown is just too much clown. juntos para el cambio might actually get the final win. but who knows, right? maybe they want to dance that tango with a knife between their teeth. if so, then... they've basically got nothing to lose, lol. they're squarely in the shit. they're out of options. maybe they will reboot/respawn.

i shouldn't lol, actually; feels mean to do so. but better to laugh than cry, i alway say. tragedy, comedy, it's just a matter of perspective most times.

Y'know, witness tampering for the whole world to see is kinda unsmart. Just sayin'.

Remember that scene in The Dark Knight where all the mobsters get charged under RICO law and are put in the courtroom together?

haha, of course not.

but ask severian, he's a big fan.

anyway, i would advise patience, with this whole thing. don't overcelebrate now, nor overmoan when something bad develops, or you'll end up exhausted.

as the timing of all of it shows, this is a marathon, not a sprint. an ultramarathon, even! gotta conserve energy for the race...

No magical mystery exonerating press conference on Monday after all. Shit, I was looking forward to that.

!@#$%! 08.21.2023 11:19 AM

on some bad news today, the orange blob is polling at 62% among repuke primary voters, and will therefore take the opportunity to weasel out of primary debates.

a long, long marathon...

Holy hell... Yeah, Putin had to do it. He couldn't let Prigozhin get away with shit and still expect to be treated like God on Earth. It's Dictator 101.

These mugshots are bullcrap. Seen the Jenna Ellis one? Looks like a cover of TV Guide!

 


The fuck kinda mugshot is that? Aren't you supposed to have a big ruler behind you and hold a little black board with your name in plastic letters? Shit, even Barbie had to!
