Only on his Diablo progression…

Now we know where the concentration camps will be… I guess…

Someone please prune this timeline.

Seems to me like you comprehend it perfectly!

I also never really saw the appeal. And I closed the account I’d barely used since 2007 (When it was primarily for announcing you were pooping and Lifehacker told me you could make lists with remember the milk) when the first buddy bought it.

I occasionally tried to use it for getting near real time news about things, but I guess I sucked at following the right people.

Now, with privacy badger, I never have to interact even when sites embed xits (if we’re going with xitter, then it’s full of xits, right?).

The Democratic elites fucked it up and we’re seeing them kowtow and shift the Overton window in real time. All to chase the people they’ve effectively denigrated for the entire election cycle.

The reality is that they’ll never learn. This is a near perfect repeat of other Democrat losses to Republicans over the last 50 years. The knee-jerk reactions we’re seeing (e.g. scapegoating trans people) are indelible without a wild paradigm shift of the core tenets of the party.

Three drink bonus: My brain is trying to color in some takeaways from the early progressivism movement (which IIRC gave birth to elitist leftism), but it hasn’t really gelled yet.

Pardon any errors here (Cunningham’s law and all), I was a bit toasty while listening to the knowledge fight episode.

My favorite part of this whole thing is that he’s calling shenanigans because he knows that the high bid didn’t win. And Alex signed documents acknowledging there were other factors.

There were 2 bids. Just 2. And do you know what the high bid was? $3.5 million. That’s it. A paltry sum for his life’s work. The price of a McMansion in California.

The executive branch ethics program works to prevent financial conflicts of interest to help ensure government decisions are made free from personal financial bias.

Since it went so well last time Trump was president, it’s just another virtue signal for him to wipe some more shit on.

Memories are really short apparently.

Recess appointments are “on the table.”

The rabbit hole is only about a thousand podcast episodes deep.

Yeah. Unfortunately at this point it is pretty much just a bit of grandstanding to try to maintain a semblance of a bar. A bar likely to be entirely ignored (best case scenario) by the new trump administration.

I guess I’m confused but your need to qualify that statement at all.

Maybe we went wrong somewhere…

That’s why the recess appointments are so important to them. And Thune has already signalled he is happy to bend the knee.

You mean “and then he became the US Attorney General.”

That has to be a hell of a damning report.

Tom Homan

During the Obama administration, which deported a record number of people, he served as head of the ICE** **branch charged with arresting and deporting immigrants. For his work, he even won the nation’s highest civil service award. “Thomas Homan deports people,” declared a 2016 profile about him in the Washington Post. “And he’s really good at it.” *(*Homan reportedly keeps a framed copy of the story in his office.) After taking office, Trump said he had heard people describe Homan as “nasty” looking, and said, “That’s what I’m looking for.”

Lest we forget Obama was a centrist in progressive clothing (the tan suit obviously).

Obligatory “Thanks Obama.”

“Take America back again” is a nice play on this sentiment.

• From billionaires

• From mega corporations

• From generational wealth

• From hedge funds

• From venture capitalists

• For kids and schools

• For affordable and private (between you and your doctor) healthcare

• For a living wage for everyone

• For affordable housing

• For you

I think the takeaway is that he’s going even deeper into the swamp dumpster this time.

The turtle says it stands, but he’s also a relic, so we’ll see.
