I simply don't like Jeff Bezos. I never have. He has good charisma and social skills, and blended intelligence and pure luck with a bit of ruthlessness, but I've never actually found him likable.

The world has gone batshit and can bite me.

Trump is still crap, and decent men don't talk like him

If the best reason you have to own and carry a gun is "The 2nd Amendment!" then you're a fucking idiot, who hasn't bothered to think about why you want to own and carry a gun. "The law says I can!" isn't a reason; it's an excuse to avoid a tiny bit of introspection about why you feel like you need to do something.

And, it also really means that said "2A! Fuck you!" person isn't bothering to think about "You know, the fact I feel so afraid I need to carry a gun is totally fucked up. WTF am I going to do about the broken shit that makes me afraid, instead of just react to the fear by being afraid?"

Fucking look for the root cause, people. Then quit being so lazy you won't even bother to come up with a sane reason you want to do something, and then put some effort into fixing the root cause, instead of just accepting it and being afraid.

This isn't rocket science. "2A baby!" isn't a reason. It's a lazy excuse to not have to think.

Fucking "mass shooting" deniers can all fucking die. This blog post (mine) is two years old. Before G+ was nuked, I had a long string of comments. It's fucking insane more people are dying every year. There is no excuse people in the United States have accepted the concepts of getting shot, kidnapped or raped as "normal," and just things we need to deal with. Absolute bollocks.

Stop the world; I fucking want off.

Oooh, I see. When "conservatives" scream "Lock her up!" at Hillary, that's perfectly responsible behavior.
But when "liberals" shout "Lock her up!" at Ivanka, they're being mean and cruel.
When "conservatives" should "Send her back!" at Congresswomen born in the United States, that's reasonable.
But when "liberals" shout it at the First Lady born in Slovenia, they're being bullies.
Uh-huh. When hypocrisy is part of the core belief system, it means someone has shit for an ethical code.

783 live posts. It was a fucking good run

Yep :)

Turns out I'm Neutral Good, with Chaotic tendencies. I would have thought I had Lawful Tendencies, but there you go.

Just reminding people

Just trying to make the world a little less ignorant

Hey, look, I was right. Three fucking years ago.

Women should get as far away from Oklahoma as soon as possible because Christian Sharia law is about to make their lives a living hell.

If Oklahoma state GOP Rep. George Faught has his way, rape will be on the path to being legal in the state. At least that’s what rapists are hoping for after Faught made a frightening statement on the subject during a debate on House Bill 1549, which restricts abortion.

For most of my life - call it 30+ years - I have not been able to fathom any excuse for any woman to vote for the GOP.

The people at Cambridge Analytica who fucked with your elections and you future have names. They need to be held accountable for fucking you over.

Good Lord, I've lost track if all the reasons Trump should be impeached.
If anyone says "unprecedented" impeachment hearings against Trump, the response is "No, the GOP impeached Clinton for boinking an intern. Trump colluded with the Russians and nakedly flaunts the emolument clause of the Constitution."

Just so we're clear: the GOP-stacked Supreme Court just said "Sure, Donald, you can take TWO BILLION DOLLARS away from Military Veterans to build a wall that doesn't need to exist and won't solve any problems!"

Yes, that's the court where Mitch McConnell said "Obama can't have the highly qualified candidate he is Constitutionally entiteld to, fuck the will of the American people," and then immediately flip-flops and says "But, Trump can have the even-the-Bar-Associaton-says-he's-unqualified, fuck the will of the American people!" appointment.

So, I've been advised that apparently even "Well, after caring for his Alzheimer's ass, in my spare bedroom, for six months, caused me to suffer chronic and recurrent temporary insanity, so in a mere moment of soul-crushing exhaustion, I committed a completely provoked yet spontaneous crime of passion, see?" still wouldn't fly as a murder defense.

"If you'd have lost your shit if Obama told Congress to fuck off about seeing his taxes, then you need to lose your shit that Trump is telling Congress to fuck off about seeing his taxes, or admit that your a hypocrite with a double standard."
