The grapes of wrath aren’t usually so literal.

And those are the only two options.

Does he have a watch up his ass?

Oh no, the condemnation of a narcissistic felon.

God damn, do I want to live in the reality where bad press exists. Or have you not watched these exact assholes fail upwards for the last seven years?

All these criminals keep getting arrested… it must be a conspiracy!

Please learn to live in reality. Please start caring what words mean.

Thumbnail looks like he hired Bat Boy.

Kind of a shame it’s just weird lighting on a normal-looking dude, versus being the sign that this is all a fever dream you can wake up from. I say you because my coma delirium wouldn’t involve this many false starts. Comey’s gonna charge him, whoops, nevermind. Mueller’s gonna charge him, whoops, nevermind. We’re going to war with Iran, whoops, nevermind. We’re holding cops accountable, whoops, nevermind. The plague means UBI, whoops, nevermind. Roger Stone’s going to jail, whoops, nevermind. A mob invaded the capitol, whoops, nevermind. Russia’s seizing Ukraine, whoops, nevermind. Ukraine’s expelling Russia, whoops, nevermind. Wagner’s conquering Moscow, whoops, nevermind. The last seven years have been like a story told by a toddler. “And then… and then… but nuh-uh… and then…”

Seeing the figure of highest ridicule - whom I remember reading about in Bloom County collections when they were far from new - fail his way into the clumsiest autocracy imaginable, would not be followed up by this much inaction. Hallucinations don’t start with “Carrot Top became the Pope!” and then level out. He’s declaring a crusade on Gallagher, the Swiss Guard develop laser-pikes, and your childhood dog kills the emperor of Australia. So whichever one of you is having this nightmare, I want you to know your subconscious is fucking boring.

Then why is it one hour?

Putting in appropriate effort for a job where the pay is exposure.

Why, did they add a week-long quarantine in baggage check? It’s an airport. The whole point is to show up and leave. Even if the wait lasts longer than the flight.

If your ass in there longer than 24 hours, the wifi should be considered an apology.

Why’s it need to be temporary, anyway? It’s an airport. Nobody’s sticking around.

Yeah it’s only a creeping error that’s making English harder and search engines worse. Fuck me sideways for politely highlighting the difference in a thread about language.

“Why are words” is a question.

“Why words are” is an explanation.

Rio is a pinwheel!

Seceding / secession.

Right: the north wasn’t fighting about slavery, it was fighting secession.

But the south was seceding about slavery.

The south started the civil war, over slavery.

The confederacy only existed to preserve and expand slavery.

Reality is a team sport, to some people.

That second one is jawdropping, mostly for how familiar its tone seems in modern discourse, and for narrowly missing calling anyone “uppity.”

Yeah why tell kids about puberty until they’re done with it?

Applying logic to bigotry is a waste of time. It’s just ingroup loyalty. The rest is mouth noises. They won’t be clever noises, and they won’t be consistent noises.
