I have a simple philosophy: KOKO. Which stands for Keep On Keepin' On. You know? Keep on living, even if it kills you.
I was using #Claude #AI for some fact-checking of political news headlines, and this popped up #ClaudeAI.

Don’t mourn for Charlie Kirk. His gun death was worth it so that we can have the 2nd amendment. It is a “prudent deal”. #charliekirk #2ndAmendment #gunviolence #thoughtsandprayers

That’s probably a good thing that Pratt doesn’t pick RFK Jr’s brain at family gatherings. I heard the worm didn’t leave much brain behind to pick.

MAGA fan fiction (part3):

They looked like members of a secret race of shape-shifting lizard people whose human skin suits are about to slough off.

Some MAGA fan fiction I’m working on (part2):

They stood like committee members at a board meeting for the apocalypse. All three had the dead-eyed enthusiasm of customer service representatives for an an organization that had googled ‘how to human’ and stopped reading after the first result.

Some MAGA fan fiction I’m working on:

They had the uncanny quality of actors who'd forgotten they were in costume. Their movements had an artificial quality, as if they were concentrating on appearing human.

(1/7) I know the following tweet is over a year old, but for some reason it’s making its rounds again. So let’s talk about it…

How much of this completely unqualified asshole and his terrible decisions do we have to put up with?! For fuck sake, he needs to go. He’s an absolutely awful human and an even worse SecDef. #petehegseth #hegseth

So no, Ted Cruz. In no universe are you Luke Skywalker. Honestly, you’re not even a compelling member of the Empire. You’re like… if Jar Jar Binks was somehow a member of the Imperial Ruling Council. Except Jar Jar was only accidentally destructive.

I mean for fucks sake — if Pete Hegseth being a worse version of General Hux isn’t a perfect example of life imitating art, I don’t know what is...

Trump, Cruz, Musk, et al are not the heroes of our story. They’re not the heroes in any story in any reality. They are the villains. And not even one of the badass villains like Vader or Maul or an evil genius like Sidious. They are the goofy, bumbling Empire (or First Order) goons...
June 20, 2025 at 2:09 PM
The fact that Ted Cruz and his ilk can watch Star Wars and see themselves and their policies and rhetoric aligning with the Jedi/Rebellion and not with the Empire is really something...
June 20, 2025 at 2:09 PM
Most people, after a rough interview, might lie low or try to change the subject. But Cruz doubled down by casting himself as the ultimate good guy from pop culture’s most famous story about good versus evil...
June 20, 2025 at 2:09 PM
The audacity of Cruz tweeting himself as Luke Skywalker after such an embarrassing interview is remarkable. It’s one thing to privately see yourself as the hero, but to publicly cast yourself in that role right after looking devastatingly foolish? That takes a special kind of confidence or denial...
June 20, 2025 at 2:09 PM
I think this tweet from Ted “Zodiac” Cruz is actually really revealing. Not only for him, but for the mindset of everyone like him. He views himself as the good guy, the hero. The cognitive dissonance and complete lack of self-awareness is simply staggering.

After today’s arrest of NYC’s comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander (who was visiting an immigration court), it would appear that MAGA fascists are, in fact, making it illegal to be a democrat. #kathyhochul #BradLander

The pardon came just in time to spare Walczak from his 18-month prison sentence and $4.4 million in restitution. A federal judge in Walczak’s case had specifically declared "there is not a get-out-of-jail-free card" for the rich. Trump's pardon proved the judge wrong.

Think about this for a moment. Walczak stole from nurses and doctors working in nursing homes, caring for our most vulnerable citizens. He stole $10.9M from hardworking Americans to fund his extravagant lifestyle. And Trump pardoned him after Walczak’s mother gave him Trump a $1M bribe!
May 28, 2025 at 1:58 PM
Here’s a story that barely made headlines, tho it should have dominated them. Paul Walczak, a former nursing home executive who stole over $10M from his employees' paychecks, received a full pardon from Trump, 3 weeks after Walczak's mommy, attended a $1 million-per-plate fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.

Nothing gives off small dick energy quite like MAGA nutjobs with their hilariously oversized, gold-plated chainsaws.
