Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time.

As someone who had a friend who changed drastically after a TBI: it’s very much a real thing. My buddy went from “a bit of an asshole, but we definitely see eye-to-eye on political shit” to full maga idiocy in the space of a couple years after a bad biking accident.

! .:|;:

A few more instances of this in some staunchly liberal communities and there’s gonna be at least an armed standoff between ICE and a local militia (they’re not all conservative). I’m sure that’s the outcome they’re going for; that doesn’t mean it can or should be avoided.

Too soon to give an Irishman a potato? You monster. >:(

TBIs can significantly change your personality. Having a stroke - especially a serious one - is essentially a TBI.

Phrenology is so hot rn

Better yet, he shouldn’t have even picked him.

Did you skip that part?

Uh, no they won’t?

The entire business model of insurance is to understand risk and assign a cash-value to it. Ignoring risk means their business model falls apart. They’re not going to ignore risk, in any dimension. And if they’re MADE to “ignore” risk in a particular dimension… they’re still going to analyze it and have actuarial tables around it, and will instead just factor it in by raising prices across the board.

I think some of the young progressives probably did, but I still think the count is probably in the single digits.

It is so weird that orangeboi’s categorically idiotic approach to negotiation and incredibly egotistic fragility are actually yielding some stopped-clock moments.

Lmfao wat.

Well, just to name a few:

• sack Garland after it became apparent that he was not fit for purpose. Better yet, he shouldn’t have even picked him
• sack DeJoy (do not give me that bullshit about how “his hands were tied” - that’s demonstrably a matter of interpretation)
• GOP wants to lean into the maximalist interpretation of executive power? Maliciously comply.
• pack the court

I can go on, at length, but I’m sure you’re starting to get the point.

I know that. But I have serious difficulty believing that the entire chain of command would listen to that dipshit if he decided to tweet at Rammstein “lmao nuke Berlin” or something like that. None of our triad is set up to have 0-100 button-press nuke launches executed by a single person, and that’s by design.

AIPAC

Or, put another way: money

Fair point, but in a strategic sense, Europe cannot afford to be sitting on their laurels in the face of this either

Lmfao this is fucking hilarious

Bring Finland too; I hear they like to do spooky snow things
