2025-04-02 08:04:53 +0000 UTCThank you for adding "and how man divisions do they have?" to my daily vocabulary. Unfortunately very useful right now, when people say "well they can't do that because (insert structure here) says no"

2025-03-24 15:11:26 +0000 UTCabsolutely! if nothing else Trump and Musk have shown that the last 20 years of democrats going "oh, we can't the rules..." was just cowardice and they totally could have if they actually had wanted to change anything.

2025-03-22 22:50:14 +0000 UTCI had to wait a couple of days to listen to this to prepare my psyche. It was outstanding, but it took a lot of physical labor in the yard to get through it.

2025-03-22 11:47:26 +0000 UTCI feel like everyone who said, "Biden can't just do (good thing), the president doesn't have power" should have a flash bang thrown into their window for the next four years

2025-03-22 11:22:01 +0000 UTCNew product idea. Chat GPT enabled Autopen. For when you need a handwritten letter but don't have the time. Great for breakups, confessions and suicides.

2025-03-22 07:46:24 +0000 UTCEntirely possible that it was a bit and I misread that as a real thing. I hope so.

2025-03-22 06:54:10 +0000 UTCWas that quote from Riley about trump "hearing in vivid color where others hear in shades of grey" or something like that real? I tried looking it up and couldn't find anything
Althiex
2025-03-22 06:53:26 +0000 UTCIf I may make a suggestion: Given that the news is so awful, maybe you folks could take a page from Lions Led by Donkeys and tack five to ten minutes of cute animal bullshit to the end of episodes? Just to leave folks in a bit of a lighter mood.

2025-03-21 16:27:18 +0000 UTCALSO apparently alongside the Swiss-Italian Fifa president they've now elected a WHITE ZIMBABWEAN president of the International Olympics Committee, truly two of the most cursèd ethnicities that there is
