That Vance is a direct line to Thiel and Andreessen is truly important. Trump wants their money. Thiel wants to sell billions in Palantir contracts to power Trump’s mass surveillance/ethnic cleansing infrastructure. Pence was the Christian Nationalists’ guy. Vance is reactionary capital’s.

Are you a fan of all of those guys who are directly responsible for making the internet an unusable dogshit hellhole? Well boy do I have a VP for you.

Had to walk to the subway because I guess the rain knocked out the streetcar? Four (4) subway stations are closed due to flooding, including Union (!!!) and a fifth is closed due to a security incident. I guess Toronto has no plans for climate change. This rainfall was NOT extraordinary anyway.

More than 165,000 customers reportedly without power; DVP lanes flooded; Some TTC stations closedwww.thestar.com Toronto will see rainfall and risk of thunderstorms on Tuesday but the sun is expected to be out for the rest of the week.

No, it’s cool that Musk is shoveling tens of millions of dollars to Trump after he picked another tech fascist’s goodest boy for VP after years of arguing for a tech-assisted dictatorship. Who could possibly be concerned about any of that?

On Saturday a wholesome afternoon of fantasizing about concentration camps and plotting to overturn the coming election was disrupted by violence

what if it was all just a plot to upstage Richard Simmons and Dr. Ruth.

Just going to continue to say it's impossible to take in the scale of bullshit in the world at this time. No one should try because it's simply not possible. Attention is a limited, non-renewable resource. I feel no guilt for focusing on a few things so that I can make a small impact on those.

this season of Veep is a bit over-the-top.

thinking about how ironic it is that a crook who routinely incites political violence experienced it first hand by a guy named Crooks.
