      If we go to war I’ll be very surprised if they’ll announce it ahead of time. I think it’s far more likely that we’ll just wake up one day and already be at war.

          I’m pretty positive that we have been at constant war sends the early 90s during the first Iraq conflict. I can’t remember if there’s a point at any time in the last 30 35 years that we haven’t had soldiers fighting on some foreign land.

      Figured it wasn’t gonna be that specifically when he announced the speech by saying “the best is yet to come”. Even the warhawkiest war hawks wouldn’t refer to war as “good times ahead”; they generally go with ‘unavoidable’ or ‘necessary’ or some ‘I am very badass’ murica type shit. That being said, I was pretty concerned he was going to announce a whole array of new and interesting human rights violations.

      Him jerking himself off for 20 minutes like we got was honestly kind of the best case scenario.

      Well, second best anyway. Him having the other kind of stroke live on air would have been the actual best case.

        So, the book above is about a woman with a rare autoimmune disease.

        She gets admitted to a fancy private hospital with a Big Pharm company footing the bill. They want to use her in a dangerous experimental process that will basically destroy her immune system in order to rebuild it.

        At one point, they have to seal her away from the world because she has no way of dealing with any infection.

        They tell her that this is ‘progress.’

        See the connection?

        If you make fun of his disabilities, you’re no better than he is.

        That’s the only line in his suffering I will draw. He deserves literally every other kind of abuse.

        If you wouldn’t make fun of a lame person for not walking, you shouldn’t do it to someone with incontinence.

        There are so many other things to use, and I sincerely hope he starts suffering bad enough to want to end himself immediately but doesn’t die for years. I would watch a miniseries of him grunting in pain and angst and turmoil, while being embarrassed and mocked on his way down.

        But I suggest that we leave the disabilities out of it.

          As a person with severe disabilities I can only say oh wow are you on the wrong track.

          He has no respect for our disabilities, we should absolutely have none for him.

          How about we dont.

          He has literally been ridiculing and belittling people with disabilities for years whilst we’ve all taken the high road.

          Fuck.that.noise. He deserves zero sympathy, and he gets no free pass. As far as I’m concerned he is fair game. Every single little thing that can be used to destroy him, should be used.

            Im with you. I don’t belittle or make fun of anyone’s disabilities… unless they do it to others… and he does…

            Fuck him and his shit filled diaper.
