Look, we don't just elect anyone, here. How many pussies have they grabbed? How many bankruptcies? These kinds of things are the bedrock of our election standards, established in 2015, and cannot, in good conscience, be unanswered.

Luigi could jump the highest of all the playable characters in Super Mario Bros 2. He was always my go-to character for this reason. Those egg flinging dinosaur fucks be damned!

You and I are in similar boats, except I only gave Windows 11 a single install on my personal gaming rig before going back to 10. With the threat of 10 going EoL, I'll be forced to move to Linux soon, myself. After working in PC and Windows troubleshooting for over 20-years all my foyers into Linux have been met with self-imposed damage resulting in an abandoment of Linux. This happened with spare computers or server setups since Windows Vista.

I'm nervous about the future of my gaming addiction, but will not use Windows 11.

Elon could do that too, though. Some dude invents it and just change the inventors name to "Elon" and bobs-your-uncle. It worked for PayPal, SpaceX, xitter, Tesla, and etc.

Wait a tick... I think this was sarcasm, y'all!

This may be different. Protests were not partisan. There was uproar from those without deep pockets across the whole spectrum. While I don't doubt some dipshits will still do it, it'll probably be fewer than other, more hyper-partisan issues.

No one should have that kind of power!

You'd think the writers of the last couple Game of Thrones seasons shot him!

They did, though, on January 6th! They were looking for her and others.

CIA are barred from enacting operations on US soil. It would have to be DOD or FBI unless they were abroad.

Lying? No, not the guy who single-handedly lead a small band of Spartan's against the entire Persian empire!

As a millennial, I've all but given up on seeing any meaningful change in what remains of my life. I'm tired of living on hopeium that boomers will get the fuck out of positions of power so some of the very obvious lies the wealthy told them, of which was regurgitated and believed by them and us, can start to be fixed. They lied about everything from going to college to get a better job, to the TWO, "once in a generation" economic crashes, to the over-bloated military industrial complex, to a botched global pandemic, to the gaslighting about fossil fuels and global warming, I'm done. I just try find candidates and causes that seem to genuinely want change and throw what little extra money my wife and I have at them.

My hope is that the Gen-Z kids continue to not give a fuck about shaking up the system and use their superior knowledge of technology to finally out these dinosaurs in Congress and enact some real change. I just don't have any fight left in me, especially after COVID and the very obvious lies being told, to our face this time, that COVID was no big deal, all so some wealthy boomer could eat in a restaurant and get their hair done.

I see this attitude reflected in many of my peers, too. It's a generational burnout on life, and the best I can muster is to throw support behind those with fight left in them.

I'm tired of being tired, ya'll...
