Hitler wasn’t an elderly incontinent man with dementia. While both men are fucking idiots, one of them had functioning short term memory, and was able to not shit himself.
Trump isn’t the source of fascism in the us, he’s just the face of it.
Also, have you given any sort of thought to how many firearms are floating out there in civilian hands?
Who are they going to shoot? Are they going to walk around town asking strangers if they’re nazis?

They said they would be guardians of power for a thousand generations. It lasted 12 years. So given that it’s this year theyre going full nazi, you can expect them out in 2037.

- Comment on The Switch 2's price won't be impacted by Japan's new tariffs, but its games might 2 days ago:
“Impactful” is a heinous travesty of the language. I’ve actually seen “impactfulness” used too. Also bad is “impacts” … “the stock market has suffered several impacts due to low business confidence.” This cumbersome wording tries to amp up the drama. It’s much cleaner to say “The stock market has been affected by low business confidence.” Aside from the shock value of replacing “affected” with impacted, a metaphor for bodily collision, many have turned to impacted because the subtle difference between affected and effected intimidates them.
Be the better person. Avoid the hokey metaphor.
Btw, media uses “slammed” and “pounds” and other Batman words simply because they get more clicks than rebuked or chastized. Don’t be a headline writer.

Affected, not impacted. Never use the word impacted when you mean affected. Use impacted when bodies collide.

World history for millennia has shown that the conquerors write the rules. Ownership is established immediately upon victory. It matters not if you’re a yanomamo tribe living 1000 years ago or a modern military 1st world country. The victors write the rules.

Animaniacs huh? You’re in for a long celibate life. Put animaniacs in your tinder bio. The first rule of having cock-block hobbies and interests is to never discuss your cock block hobbies and interests. For every cock-block interest you need 3 desirable interests to balance it out. Take up guitar, hiking, and charity work to offset animaniacs. Then, mind the second rule of cock block hobbies.

- Comment on What would I need to do to successfully paint with my own menstrual blood? 2 months ago:
Great idea!!! Just use a good quality natural fibre fan-tip brush. You might as well up your game. For rocks and cliffs and other dark areas you can smear your shit on the canvas. Use a palette knife to work it in small areas. Blow some boogers for tree and foliage texture. Give the final composition an overwash of piss to give it a wholesome warmth.

- Comment on Why does it seem like everyone is so good looking and beautiful nowadays? 2 months ago:
The picture of the guy wearing the green sweat pants is wearing a t-shirt, so that’s not a fuckup. But the guy wearing the grey Izod with the sweatpants and sneakers is a major fuckup. A major big fuckup that says “I’m clueless”. If you want to spend your life lonely and depressed, go ahead wear that.
It’s just that I don’t wanna spend the majority of my life thinking how I should dress especially when I’m just going to the grocery store, as life is way too short for that.
This is where you’re not getting it… you think about it once. Get your style choices and wardrobe sorted. Then after that it’s just putting on clothes.
- Comment on Why does it seem like everyone is so good looking and beautiful nowadays? 2 months ago:
Polo shirts are “dressy casual”. Sweat pants are gym clothes. Mixing the two is a big fuckup. People might tend to take the position that fashion is binary: either you like to walk around like you’re going to the academy awards, or you don’t give a fuck. The reality is that there is a place in the middle where it’s not really fashion we’re talking about; it’s just being “put together”. There is no need to don a silk shirt and tie to go the supermarket. But on the other hand, walking around in daily life like you just rolled out of bed is dis-empowering. If you present yourself to the world with a DGAF attitude, then the world will simply DGAF you back. Understand that every time you go out in public you are showcasing who you are by how you look and dress. Every time is an opportunity. Maybe you meet a new friend or lover. Maybe the person behind you in line that you chat with is potentially your new boss. Putting yourself together before you go out is not about projecting a false or smug image; it’s about projecting care and confidence. When people see that you give a fuck about how you present yourself, then they conclude that you probably give a fuck about other things too; maybe things they care about. Don’t wear sweat pants or gym clothes out and about as daily drivers. Pair that Ralph Loren Polo with shorts, or with nice fitting jeans.

- Comment on Fast-Paced Working Environment 2 months ago:
It’s amazing to me that companies still like to sprinkle the phrase “fast paced” into their job ads as if it is a job perk.
To me it’s just a big red flag. Instead of “Fast paced“ they should simply write “we cant retain enough staff, nobody knows what’s going on, and the whole place is a shitshow.”
