Trump being unable to remember things he did in his first term, his bizarre antics during the Club World Cup final, the lashing out and reversals over Epstein, and the WH now admitting his health issues do not feel unrelated. The veneer of invincibility is cracking.

Except for all the legal immigrants they’re deporting. And the people mistaken as undocumented immigrants. And… oh yeah you’re just fucking stupid.

The world must be set free.

It'd be one thing if the Trump administration was cleverly carrying out a fascist agenda but they're doing it very sloppily and still largely succeeding which I think makes it feel worse

Hey white folks. Houseplants can be exotic. Parrots can be exotic. People are not exotic. That isn’t the compliment you think it is - “oh wow you don’t look like you belong here.”

Find a new word, that one’s not ok. Cool? Cool. Fuck.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

Literal decades of public education and social conditioning has made words like “socialism” and “communism” evil in the eyes of the avg American, and “capitalism” the gold standard to judge that which is good. All that to say… good luck :/

Witness said a bus driver told an ICE agent to "gargle [his] balls" when the latter requested to enter the bus.

God bless

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

For real tho, it’s like Twitter 1.0, this time with even less fascists. (Starter packs are incredible, there are several to just nuke a ton of the dumbass fascists that decided to try to come here). Starter packs for scientists and historians and sports and all types of shit. Bluesky rules lol

@zmuller.bsky.social welcome, it’s better here

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

metaphor alert

It’s Melania 😂

I think what people don’t understand is that Donald Trump’s first term was like a toddler in the boundary testing phase. When mommy and daddy say “don’t do this” do they mean it? Turns out they didn’t fucking mean it. This term will be akin to a Teen who grew up without experiencing consequences.

There is something remarkably ominous about Melania choosing to obscure half of her face. I can’t describe it, but it’s truly and considerably unsettling

He did get a significant, inexplicable, portion of the hispanic vote. But invoking the black vote as some kind of record… Maybe record low? Truly delusional

He doesn't know he's President now. He only knows how to play one role - angry victimized candidate.

What the FUCK IS HAPPENING. How much Adderall did the orange fuck snort before this speech?

Trump dropping his own memecoin means he has the wrong people in his ear re crypto policy. I’m now getting very concerned about the Trump presidency.

nic carter @nic__carter · 11h Something that hasn’t been much discussed - creating a bunch of personal memecoins opens the door to secretive foreign buyers trying to curry influence with our leaders. If you hated hunter biden’s anonymous art sales, you should hate this too. nic carter @nic__carter Basically, we used to have an informal rule that presidents wouldn’t start or run businesses that could pose a conflict of interest. Creating a bunch of memecoins and defi protocols opens the possibility to rampant violations of the emoluments clause. Not to mention the obvious COI given the fact that trump can set crypto policy.

Ryan Selkis (d/acc) 🇺🇸 @twobitidiot Dear @realDonaldTrump : Please fire whoever recommended going forward with the Melania launch today. 1. They don’t know what they’re doing. 2. They cost you a lot of $ and goodwill. 3. They don’t have your interests in mind.

Brent @Brentsketit feel bad for anyone trying to build anything serious rn president just making a complete mockery of this industry fighting another biden admin prolly would have been better longterm

I’m not sure people quite grasp how much of the crypto world is reacting to the Trump memecoin launches.

A screenshot of Maggie Smith's "Good Bones" Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.

Totally get it - in most cases on the internet, if someone is flatly stating something this absurd there’s a solid chance it’s sardonic. But I totally get the rampant evolution of an entire group of people in this country dumb enough to say shit like this and mean it, so very reasonable to struggle

Hell is empty,
And all the devils are here.

Linda, sweetheart, that was the OP’s point. Donald Trump just evoked Manifest Destiny in his inauguration speech, and OP was sardonically pointing out the obvious (at least to those of us with an ounce of historical context)

There were so many dogwhistles that, as someone with apparently an above average understanding of world and US history, made me go “oh fuck no, for real?”
