  • anatomically impossible, Mr. Garibaldi. but you’re welcome to try… anytime."

    (good god did Walter Koenig play that role. it’s incredibly different from Chekov, and he was amazing at both. and wow are the one liner’s in bab5 just… memorable.)

    If you’re looking for things that still have an enduring relevance today… check out the OG the Day the Earth Stood Still not the remake with keanu reeves. that one deserves the George Lucas Holiday Special™️treatment. It’s classic 1950’s scifi at it’s peak. (yes, that’s easily my favorite movie. hands down.)


  • They’re voting trump because they were convinced they are victims. Calling them names may make them actually turn out more because it gives weight to trumps campaign and their arguments they make.

    bullshit. even fox news and OAN and all the-even further-right-wing-rags air his rants. They’ve heard him speak. we ALL watched him incite an insurrection. all their propagandist rags have spewed his own words like “I’ll be a dictator on day one”, or “If I get elected, you won’t [get] to vote again.” comments. They’ve heard all his violent rhetoric. They’ve heard him praise douchey assholes like Putin and Kim.

    They’ve heard his racist dog-whistles. his misogyny. His stupidity.
    They like that he calls for political violence against immigrants, against women, and against anyone whose not ideologically with them. (that is… democrats.).
    They like his vile shit.

    The GOP is the party of Insurrection. The party of violence. The party of racism. the party of misogyny. The party of hate. The party of Fuck-the-Poor-so-The-Rich-can-save-a-Buck.

    Sorry, but they’re voting for that. Knowingly. they’re voting for project 2025. Knowingly. They’re not ignorant. They know what and who he is, and they’re voting for the candidate they like.

    we need to be hitting back at the people who try to ‘civilize’ trump’s message. “no he meant” needs to be met with “Trump meant to be fucking fascist, why are you lying?”

    It’s tough to navigate this election, but fueling their emotions while their manipulated emotions have made them vote for trump in the first place, seems like an obviously bad idea, even for some idiot like myself.

    yeah, the time to coddle their fucking emotions is long since passed. Hurt their feelings. the worst of trump’s supporters are not here to have civil conversation like functional adults.

    they’re here to beat the shit out of you until you comply. They don’t give a flying fuck about your feelings. Only your compliance. It’s well past time to clobber the “undecided” or “moderates” that don’t really exist any more over the head with all of the GOP’s bullshit. Paint them with that brush. if they don’t like it they can prove it by NOT SUPPORTING THE FUCKING FASCISTS.


  • You mean… like trump did? When he doubles down on the PR being “garage”,

    Or, every time he opens his puckered anus?

    It’s okay to get angry. It’s okay to say that people that want to elect a rapist, racist, a raging misogynist, convicted felon, tax cheat, business fraudster.

    a man whose policies are so awful, that his kill count is only lower compared to the likes of Mao, Stalin, hitler and Pol Pot.

    That is who trump voters are voting for. You cannot be a good person- or even a half-way decent person- and vote for that.

    You do not get to make jokes about Paul Pelosi getting beaten in the head with a claw hammer and then get offended when you’re called a piece of trash.

    You do not get to attack people at voting polls with a machete, or burn ballot boxes or intimidate voters and complain about being called garbage.

    You do not get to vote for laws that prevent women from getting necessary, emergency medical care directly leading to their death, and bitch about being called a callous, shitty human being.

    Any vote that gets lost because of this was never going to be voting for harris anyway. Undecided voters don’t exist. We know who and what the candidates are. We’ve known for more than a year. It isn’t that complicated a decision.



  • It can also fire up your base.

    Lets. It forget that Biden was responding to a speaker at Trump’s MSG rally calling Puerto Rico garbage.

    What idiot decided the democrats needed to pull their punches while trump and the republicans get to call america garbage? Or any of the actually-vile shit they spew on a regular basis?

    Trump is a fascist. Period. Full stop. Anyone who supports him is also a fascist. And fascists are garbage human beings.

    Besides which, they were already out voting. They can’t vote any harder.









  • So biden’s “gaffe”.

    I’m just gonna go ahead say he should have been like “I said what I said. You got a problem with that?”

    Trump supporters are awful people. Period. Full stop. You cannot be a good person, or even a not-bad person and support trump. He is directly responsible for the deaths of over 1 million Americans. He is an insurrectionist. He is a rapist. A liar. A business fraud. A cheat. He’s blatantly racist.

    If you support trump, you support a fascist. That makes you a fascist. It is as simple as that.

    It’s obvious the not-actually-a-joke made Biden angry. Some things should make you angry.







  • they wouldn’t need to take SpaceX. just replace Musk’s ownership/control with Some Advisory Board™️staffed by project managers that know the fuck they’re doing. SpaceX wouldn’t necessarily need to be closed- just a change in ownership.

    Granted, that’s pratically a pipe dream since congress has been intent on privatization instead of having NASA be in that role.

    after about a decade, the government then sells its stake off slowly; probably reaping a rather huge profit while it’s at it.
