Enjoy the self-satisfaction of having taken the high road while the concentration camps get built.
Lock him up for contempt of court until he testifies.
On one hand, fuck Musk. On the other hand, internet from space that can't be blocked by governments is a net positive in my book.
Cats are obligate carnivores. It is 100% animal abuse.
One of my favorite examples of the difficulty in idiot-proofing things comes from a national park ranger talking about the difficulty of designing a bear-proof garbage can. He said "There is considerable overlap between the smartest bears and the dumbest humans."
Cut the both-sides shit. Trump is a convicted sex criminal and fraud who wants to end democracy. There is objectively a better choice between the two.
Even if you don't think it was murder, it's repulsive that he is trying to make a career out of killing two people.
You know how you turn on an electric heater and the filament begins to glow? That is energy being converted to light, so not 100% efficient.
If Trump loses the 2024 election because Texas temporarily secedes, taking its 38 Republican electoral votes with it, I might die from the schadenfreude.
Let's just build a big congressional dorm with furnished studio apartments and make them all live there when Congress is in session. It would save the government a fortune in cost of living reimbursements and security costs.
Since I've never heard of him, here are some of Mike Johnson's political stances. In favor of:
A nationwide abortion ban.
A nationwide ban on gay marriage.
Heavy restrictions on medical marijuana prescriptions and a ban on recreational marijuana.
Ending military aid to Ukraine.
Gay conversion therapy.
Federal law against gender affirming care for those under 18.
Eliminating funding for immigration and refugee assistance.
Trump's Muslim ban.
A federal version of Florida's "Don't Say Gay" bill.
Prayer in public schools.
Laws making divorce more difficult.
Johnson does not believe in climate change or that Biden legitimately won the 2020 election. He is a young earth creationist believing the Earth was created between 6-10k years ago. He regularly takes his family hunting or to the gun range. He basically checks every box of a christofascist.
The only good thing I can see about him is that Johnson adopted a black 14 year old boy and raised him. Of course he used this adoption as justification for being against reparations and the adopted son can it be found in any public family photos with Johnson. Any speculation that the adopted boy doesn't exist or was Johnson's sexual plaything is completely unfounded.
I worked security for a pro baseball stadium. Some guy and his teenage sons had front row season tickets behind home base. The boys were underage and openly drinking alcohol. We went to tell them the kids had to cut it out.
This guy (who was drunk too) throws a fit that we dared tell him what he could do. He starts shouting "do you know how much I pay for these tickets!? My sons can do whatever they want" blah blah blah.
I wave down the security head and he radios for the police to come deal with it. The man and his sons were marched out to boos from the crowd. They were ejected from the game and fined. They potentially lost their season ticket rights too, but I don't know for sure. I never saw them again though.
