Not if we kill them first.

Well, if Trump would just die already, we could all stop making "go to Mar-a-Lago" jokes. So if you think about it, really, your problem is with him.

Look, their holy book says "go thou and MAKE disciples of all nations."

It doesn't say anything about giving them a choice in the matter. Forcing everyone else to believe in their god was always the plan.

Dude, obviously he shouldn't be charged with ANYTHING. But if they're gonna go ahead and do the stupid thing (which they will, and there's nothing anyone can do about it), it's better that they do the stupid thing that hurts him a lot LESS, rather than the much, much more stupid thing that's going to hurt him a lot MORE.

WTF is wrong with *you* that you want the military to hurt him *more*?

That's deeply prejudicial and unfair. The US can absolutely be trusted.

Right after they annihilate every single Republican and "Independent" who voted for or supported Trump in any way. After America purges itself of its Nazi and Nazi-adjacent elements, and burns down the entire capitalist economic system and agrees to be governed by a sane parliamentary system and disavows its military-industrial complex, then it can be allowed back on the world stage.

But not until then. Never until then.

Why WOULDN'T you be naked on a spaceship? You're indoors. What are you gonna do, step outside without any clothes on?

I'm describing *my* house. Personally. This is a real life example. It sold for 40K in 1983 as a new build, and I paid 400k for it in 2022 (and was lucky to get it that cheaply, but it was a motivated seller).

Counterpoint: disposable tights and fishnets and RP costumes which you won't feel bad about having them torn off of you.

From what I'm led to believe, "boomer" just means "anyone over 25 that I don't like."

Why, you make it sound like America is the worst country in the world that ever has and ever will exist, and make it sound like Americans are the literal worst people on the planet and humanity would be better off if every single one of them ceased to exist. SURELY you couldn't be insinuating such a thing, right?

I mean yeah, but would you rather have 17% on a 40,000 house, or 8% on a 400,000 house (which is the exact same house)?

That looks to me like a $995 monthly payment (43% of the 1983 $2312 median monthly income), vs a $3,475 monthly payment (61% of the $5352 median monthly income).

Which means that for as bad as the 1980s was for house buying, it is currently MUCH WORSE.

Yes, they will. You can either kill them first, or kill enough people that the ones who are left will impose enforced regulations, but under no circumstances is anyone fixing this without killing the people who are fine with the situation as-is.

Oh, wait, you're Ngugi. I didn't notice the OP. Fair enough. Thank you for sharing the cosplay, and thank you for your usual posts. My son Elessar particularly enjoys them. I'll go yell at the actual cosplay guy on Reddit.

You're basically holding a nagamaki! Separate your hands more!

(Interesting choice on the mail covering the neck. I understand why you did it, but it's definitely a choice. Try lacing leather through the mail around your wrists to keep it from billowing out from your lower arm cannons.)

Why is *Star Wars* always facing an oppressor?

Mate, why are *we*?

I can assure you that there are plenty of AI supports who indeed consider "artist" to be a slur.

*shrug* If you aren't willing to shoot them back, then they win.

"BuT tHaT wOuLd LeAd To CiViL wAr!!!OMGBBQ!!!"

Yes. Yes it might. And they might win that too. But the only thing that's absolutely sure is that if you *don't* fight back, then they DEFINITELY win. There is no math in which you don't stand up to this shit, and the people who want a dictatorship for their team just magically go away. You want democracy? Organize, arm yourselves, and earn it.

Look, the man just hated pants, and as someone who is at work right now and having to wear pants while I'm there (under protest), I can respect the hell out of that viewpoint.

Hey, does this mean that if you get enough signatures on a petition, Canada will conduct a military decapitation strike on the Trump/Vance/Miller crime syndicate? What's the actual limit that can be accomplished?

The right answer to THIS church and the people who believe this is illustrated in the film, "The Patriot". To whit:

(Yes I know this isn't what happened historically. I don't care. It's the right solution to THIS problem and THESE people, and you, the person about to "well acktually" about the historical provenance of the film, knows it.)

No, no, you don't understand. Any video that shows something even remotely interesting or unusual in any way is automatically AI now.

Counterpoint: certain people *are* expendable, and this determination is made by their own actions. Killing is not desirable, and should not be undertaken lightly, but it is by no means unacceptable.

"does it seem that the US won WW2 in spite of its general officers?"

My brother in military history, that statement applies to *EVERY* country. Many of Napoleon's marshals were idiots. The entire Franco-Prussian War. Every single Allied nation in WW2 was full of bickering fools who cared more about ego than winning. And let's not even *talk* about the dysfunction that was the German or Japanese command structure.

What you are describing is normalcy. Winning is about who screws up the LEAST.

Normalcy *can* return.

First, wipe out all politically biased news AND entertainment sources and keep them gone. Then massively increase education resources & prioritize both actual facts, & both civic awareness and responsibility. Make voting mandatory, & require "none of the above" to be on all ballot entries. Destroy Citizen's United, depopulate SCOTUS & rebuild it. Ban lobbying money and AIPAC.

Then wait 2-3 generations for the olds to die off. Then there's a CHANCE normalcy comes back.

Yeah, they said that about Kissinger, too, and he lived to 100. If Iran wants to negotiate once the Trump term ends, their best option is to ensure that it ends prematurely.
