5 minutes agoI’ve had a couple cases I could’ve presented there, but it just wasn’t worth it to me to take the time to gather the evidence and write out my case. There’s good reason I’m neither a lawyer, nor a politician.
Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

Love the deadnamimg of the country.
“Admits” - like he was planning to do something illicit. Fuck the NYPost, the print version of Fux Snuz.
I wish I were devious enough to come up with a believable bullshit story for them to fall for at first, only to make it obvious I was full of shit by the time we were done so I could waste their time.
Takes one to know…

THIS is what I’m looking forward to. I’m guessing it’ll start sometime next year, so shortly after Christmas '26 will be the optimal time -at least that’s my long-term plan.

Saayyy what, now?!?

They’re just Republican-Lite, so why would they think they had anything better to offer the idiots who went full MAGAt? They only have a chance now thanks to some of the MAGAts learning the hard way that they didn’t quite want to go that far.
It certainly isn’t because the Democratic leadership has stopped taking their left-wing supporters for granted. They know those voters don’t really have any credible alternatives (yet).
Won’t happen soon enough to save us. The shit’s already hitting the economic fan, so all the billionaires will be able to own everything for pennies on the dollar before long - which has been their overarching goal all along.
No, but he’s cranked the instability volume up to 30 (of 10) since he re-entered the Oval Office, along with all the naked cash grabs no other president in recent memory would’ve ever gone near.
His “bright view of the economy” is entirely based upon what he’s been able to personally pocket through his multitude of grifts. He doesn’t GAF about anybody or anything else.

I think that’d be… ahem … stretching things.
So if I only take half of it in, does that mean I can switch hit at will?
TY for saving us a click.
Sorry, but if he’s pulling anything out, then I’d be outta there!
Nothing was said about requiring it, but I agree that it’s a bit annoying when there’s downvotes without anyone justifying even a single one of them.
