I get anxiety thinking about thinking about “two sides.” It’s like alarm bells going off. Us vs them, simple and easy to understand explanation for current event, anything a frustrated or cynical person would generate automatically, etc.
TWO. SIIIIDES.
I love it. “Here’s a petition to betray the country. Any separatists come forward and put your name on this list.”
It will save sooooo much time.
Republican nepotism.
50 / 51 Republicans voting yes.
44 / 45 Democrats voting no.
“Democrats are bad.” “It’s the ratchet effect.” “They’re all against us.”

Sounds like she’s going to run for president.
Does anyone have a link to the amendment? Or to the votes that were tallied?
The website seems to just link to the budget bill. If this were devs discussing a change to a repo, you’d have links to discussions, the code in question, related technical specifications… not just a link to what a dev said on Twitter and a link to the repo.
I don’t know enough to parse the bills / their process, but I know enough to not care about what they say happened on Twitter.
Leader of humanity, champion of the future, the herald of space, the greatest warrior in the resistance, the only billionaire who cares about us –
Oh wait no, he lost a fraction of his enormous wealth, I guess he’s giving in to the forces of wokevil.
Being able to remember is so surreal these days. I remember when Republicans attacked my country and tried to kill elected leaders. I remember when the domestic terrorists were taken in like sons and daughters. I remember CPAC declaring “We are all domestic terrorists.”
And now they’re saying terrorists don’t deserve due process.
If the game is about driving around with a gun, provoking people into hitting you, and then going back and getting your gun to kill them, it would be very easy to go around deleting Trump supporters. You know, if not for the police / government being on their side.
That dude could’ve stayed in his truck and waited for people to walk by. Instead he ended up bloody and teary-eyed. And he’s the one with the fucking assault rifle.
Americans circa 2025 about to take their economic medicine
It sounds really bad to me. The implication behind efficiency is that if it’s inefficient then it can be stopped. It’s a question of control / funding. (Auditing for efficiency is already a thing in societies, DOGE is not that.)
It’s like a government within a government. A super institution that sits above the others and decides budgets and policy.
This super institution would need expertise in all things related to self governance. When this super institution audits education how will it know what is efficient unless it has that domain specific knowledge? And then economics, and then engineering, and then social planning, and so on.
I think governmental efficiency stems from a society that values efficiency. Creating a super institution to rule them all is something else.
Hard to provide residence for a RealID when you’re homeless. Some shelters don’t want to deal with mail, providing bus passes, etc.
Kinda hearkens back to having to be rich and white to vote.
Basically this isn’t real. Elon Musk had his agency make a claim on Twitter, and then he replied to his own agency with an emoji, and then no proof came out.
This is no different than Elon using his burner account to post about how great a dad he is. DOGE is his alt account made to say shit he wants.
Imperialism is when USA does something
Edit: fuck. Just notice ml. Ignore me, I’m from all
I think they’re like mold or cancer cells, or even a fire. You can’t decide to be a billionaire just like a plant species can’t decide to grow in crack in the pavement. It’s a system of interactions that decides that. Pure chance and a lot of failures that had as much right to succeed as any other.
Billionaires are byproducts of our system weaved into a physical human body. It has a human life to confuse you and camouflage what it really is. It has a human brain and human emotions to generate reasons why it deserves to exist. It looks and feels like a person.
Reminds me of mandrakes from Harry Potter. They scream like they’re alive but they’re just there to be harvested.
Before or after he builds the wall that Mexico will pay for? The wall he promised 10 years ago and ended up being a metal fence that costs Americans billions to build.
I read what Republicans wrote, but my eyes glazed over whenever they attacked investigators instead of talking about how key facts were actually lies.
Which is to say I ended up tuning the whole thing out. One day they might learn how to communicate with people instead of fellow homo dipshitus.
