Just some random internet asshole. I post shit I like, and shit I don’t like. Sometimes I think I’m funny, and sometimes I just rage against all the machines.

I can’t believe I have to add this, also, I am very sarcastic.

Well well, thought police seem out in force today.
Congressman wants to round up and deport people who liked Bad Bunny’s show. This is the Republican Party.

Kind of feels like the level of outrage the gop have over some olympians and the superbowl halftime show, should be at the very least, applied equally to shooting American citizens dead in the street.

I’m asking too much, right?

Remember when blowjobs and lying to Congress to get their approval to go to war were the scandals?

Good times, good times.

Good to know that the GOP is fighting the hard fight against Super Bowl halftime shows.

Not like there is anything else of consequence happening.

We’ve forgotten our responsibility to an entire island of American Citizens.
Puerto Rico hasn't had reliable power in a decade.

The grid sends occasional surges through the wires that fry appliances.

Electricity rates are among the highest in the entire U.S.

Heat waves are getting intense in the summer, and outages mean A/C is no guarantee for an aging population.

In hindsight Trump saying he’d “release the files” wasn’t a promise to supporters, it was a blackmail threat to his rich “friends”.

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

This is what Hess said: “It brings up mixed emotions to represent the US right now. I think it’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of. Just because I wear the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the US.”

Nothing says America like Football and yogurt.
RFK Jr on what he'll eat during the Super Bowl: "I am on a carnivore diet so I just eat meat and ferments, and I'm very happy with that. So I'm probably going to have yogurt."

I wonder how much he skims off the top?
More than half the drugs on the TrumpRx site have a cheaper generic version on the market.

Pristiq, an antidepressant, is available with a TrumpRx coupon for ~$200 for a 30-day supply.

A generic version is on GoodRx for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugs for $16.65.
