The Strong Arms Handshake meme featuring Carl Weathers and Arnold Schwarzenegger. More precisely, their arms. Arms entwined, and hands claspsed, in a glistening show of unbreakable solidarity. The left arm is labeled, "Autistics." The right arm is labeled, "Stoners." The hands of unity are labeled, "Hey, wanna step out and take a walk?"

I assume he's referring to the kerning?
FInal shot of video made by congressmembers who are former military and intelligence, urging current miliary and intelligence folks to refuse to follow illegal orders. Text reads "Don't give up the ship" but the top of the I and top of the V are crashing into each other because of bad kerning, looking like 3/4s of an M.

There are so many red flags to warrant being skeptical (at least) of this guy, yet people continue to defend him, creating this myth of an every man driven to politics as a way of doing penance and using his white privlege for good.

HE WAS HEADHUNTED. HE DID NOT HAVE A DREAM TO RUN FOR SENATE.
New Yorker Platner profile: Several Maine labor figures reached out to Katz and Calvello, who closed the deal. Platner was taken by surprise by their interest. “They’re, like, ‘We think that right now Susan Collins is uniquely weak,’ ” he told me. “We think the Democrats are going to choose a bad candidate for this race specifically, and we think that you’re a good candidate for this. And Amy and I promptly told them, ‘That’s fucking insane. We work full time. We don’t have any money.’ . . . We’re just normal fucking people who have very busy schedules, and running for U.S. Senate is the most ridiculous thing that I could’ve ever heard for myself.” Platner pulled up a cage. He lifted out a mesh bag full of tiny oysters, each the size of a pumpkin seed, explaining that as the oysters grow they need more space. “It’s very much like gardening,” he said. “I’m just thinning.” The scouting group told Platner and Gertner that they had two weeks to think it over. “About three days into it, we were, like, ‘All right, we don’t really want to, but we might have to,’ ” Platner said. “This might be another sacrifice that needs to be made in the service of the country.”

Pretty sure the Army and Blackwater tattoo checks are to make sure you hit the minimum of at least one (1) Nazi tattoo.
Screenshot of AP story: Platner said he had never been questioned about the tattoo’s connections to Nazi symbols in the 20 years he has had it. He said it was there when he enlisted in the Army, which requires an examination for tattoos of hate symbols. “I also passed a full background check to receive a security clearance to join the Ambassador to Afghanistan’s security detail,” Platner said.

Awesome, Ace Hardware is sacrificing a bucket to me so that I can fulfill my destiny as the Antichrist.
A mailer from Ace Hardware store advertising a FREE 2 GALLON BUCKET, with a giant headline, "it's here!" and a personalized bit that read IT'S ALL FOR YOU, CYNTHIA! There is a photo of the bucket with superimposed confetti seeming to shoot out of it. It's...a lot.

A still from the slapstick spy spoof film, Top Secret. A man holds a magnifying glass to his eye. His eye appears to be magnified. He will then lower the magnifying glass. His left eye is simply giant.
