    He hasn’t even won the presidential election yet and people are pretending this is happening. Ignore the orange asshole unless he wins, he only wants attention.

      Ignoring a potential problem until it becomes an actual problem sounds pretty fucking stupid to me.

        Giving him a platform every time he opens his yap sounds just as stupid by playing into his game. We’re all really stupid here, I guess.

    Jesus Christ, the current candidates manage to make Mitt Fucking Romney look like he’s 30 years old.

      In my own mind, 1994 was a couple weeks ago, not thirty years ago. It takes a conscious mental step for me to register that these candidates are demented geriatrics because they’re still young in my mind because 1994 was last week.

      This also applies to musicians as well as that creepy old dude I see in the mirror. No idea where he came from.

      I suspect the vast majority of older voters are not taking that conscious mental step and are voting for young candidates that they remember from “last week.”

      This is not a justification at all. Merely a self reflection that I occasionally get caught up in time denial myself.

    Im Australian and we had the conversation at work today that China is predictably evil whereas America wakes up every morning and spins a roulette wheel for their D&D alignment and then another for what drug they are going to do today.

      Yeah, we’ve kind of lost the narrative here. We should probably bring in a team of consultants to help us refocus on our core competencies and align our efforts better as a team.

      I’m afraid that’s going to mean laying off a lot of republicans, but we need to become more efficient at delivering real value, and I’m sure they’ll understand.
