Don Jr really can’t stop saying the dumbest things and making himself or whoever he’s talking about look worse in the process. I’d say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he’s actually even less aware than his dad.

That’s what I was going to point out. Beside that sounding like the most obvious scam domain ever, reading it at face value would indicate that the Republicans think their supporters are a bunch of addicts. Did they fire everyone with any marketing background or are they all so far down the rabbit hole that this sounds perfectly reasonable to them?

Sure, but let’s all agree it could be worse.

If it were added to this meme, it’d have a reaction somewhere between the Supra and the Eclipse. Something like “oh, okay”.

What do you mean? At least the new WRX is still a sedan, still AWD, still has a boxer, and can still be bought as a manual.

Sure, it’s making about the same horsepower as 20 years ago, and it got progressively heavier as Subaru needed to add more safety equipment to remain compliant, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Ford and Mitsubishi taking legendary name plates and slapping them on crossover SUVs.

I mean, a rainbow Gadsden flag makes some kind of sense if you forget all the recent associations. At face value it could be as simple as saying that you don’t want the government to tread on your rights as an LGBTQ citizen. If you go one layer deeper and look at it as a symbol of the fight for freedom during the American revolution, it still works - Freedom for LGBTQ people to be who they are.

I’m sorry to hear that. And yes, it’s depressing to see these “privitization will save us all” types destroy public services using the same old playbook of “defund, defund, defund, point out the issues after decades of defunding, then start to slow-roll private options until the public service has been fully hollowed out” everywhere.

This might be a bit sensitive of a question to ask, but what country are you in? Because I’ve lived in several western European countries and the access to healthcare wildly varies between them. Especially countries that’ve “enjoyed” a multitude of conservative/right wing governments over the past three decades seem to have really embraced enshittifying healthcare access and affordability while pushing an American-style private system as the “solution”.

How is this so accurate?

We never thought about it, but of our three cats, the girls are named after a goddess and an empress, while the boy cat is named after a Starbucks menu item.

Thanks for sharing these gems. I can almost feel the exasperation in some of the emails and their replies.

I struggle to see how being held accountable is a bad thing. Even in public office.

Nobody should be above the law.

Yeah, totally unrelated. Just like the large amount of people falling out of windows in Russia. And all the people that got poisoned or got to drink Polonium tea. All completely unrelated accidents.

We don’t know for sure, but that’s what this meme is playing on.

Prigozhin marched on Moscow despite Putin’s warning to retaliate against any rebellion, then stopped his advance after talking to Lukashenko and getting offered amnesty in Belarus.

Back before music piracy was a thing; because who’s going to download a 3-4MB file on a 14k4 modem? By the time you grab one song you’d have racked up such an internet bill you might as well have bought the single.
