  • Affluenza.

    Once you have so much it’s obscene, you don’t have any peers.

    Without peers, you don’t have true accountability. Without accountability man becomes monster

    It should be in the DSM, seriously. Then we can argue we’re legislating a maximum annual income limit for their own good, to protect their mental health - and we wouldn’t be lying in the least.

    Ever met a wealthy child?

    Monsters. All of em. #eattherich

    The truly sad part too, is real connection to the past, to humanity, that wave of empathy and seeing your place in the chain, happens when we are doing the same mundane things that those chucklefucks think their too good for. First time it happened to me I was meading the dough for some daily bread. And it was like the history of my ancestors and I all merged into one, all around this one activity.

    People without people aren’t people.


  • I mean…Russia stands to benefit the most from climate change. Followed by Canada.

    A few degrees centigrade and just about everything below the 40th parallel become unhabitable. That leaves the northern border states in the US. 350million of us gonna squeeze into Washington, Montana (fuck Idaho) N.Dakota Minnesota, NY, New Hampy, Verminion and Maine? IDK about that.

    For the first 20 years of my life I thought we would step up and have a plan to avoid the worst. That next 20 years I was waiting for real coordination to be heard over the politicking. The last few years I realized we do have a plan. And that plan is the exact one I thought was waaaay too barbaric for modern times but now I’m convinced it’s the only outcome we’ve planned for at all.

    And that’s to build the wall and drop a machine gun every 20ft. There’s ~200million people between us and South America and the army has way way more ammunition stored up than just that.

    So the choice of having the world’s rich humbled down to the common man and we all degrowth or slaughter 200million people, America has chosen blood.

    Politics is nothing but coordinated violence, in that it is nothing but coercion of people against their own interests. If you’re an interested party, than youre adding to the coercion of others. If you stay out of it, then it’s not political to you is it?

    Politics:violence

    Politics:economics

    Economics:violence

    Try telling people whose rent has doubled or tripled within a decade that economics isn’t violence. You’ll experience some carnal violence in return, I’m sure.

    Politics = violence; it’s the NC-17 version, violence all grown up and sophisticated. Sanitized for TV, in it for the sound bites. In fact, I’d say at least half of it is theatre alone. It’s even been packaged up for the people to play along from home. The evolution of violence, fun for the whole family. I mean, what else would we talk about come holidays? HELPING each other?!?




  • One can daydream…

    After they announcd secession DC should immediate come out and say something like

    “the North accepts upon condition that any and all who want to leave the south can freely do so, without hindrance, at the cost of the state, within the next 30days, and any and all from the north sympathetic are henceforth required to join the south in their ranks, within the next 30 days. If you choose to stay, continuing the campaigns of hate will find you deported to the other side, at the cost of total seizure of your estate. Citizenships will be repealed accordingly and people can apply for a visa if they want to visit. The national guard is working in conjunction with border patrol to secure our new borders. As I speak we have already shut down every freeway and highway, and work has already begun putting bollards in every smaller road. Barbed wire is already being set until completion of the new American DMZ. That’s right folks, we’re gonna build that wall. Anyone tries to get back in here we have to cross the minefields, robodogs, automatic sentries and Rebecca Flack music”

    NASA and the military EVAC immediately.

    The military laughed and told Texas to go fuck itself -immediately, completely unprovoked, like the secretary just couldn’t wait to live that mic and poke the hornets nest- once Roe was scuttled, that they’ll decide for themselves what rules they follow and what they consider medicine. The bases are federal land after all. If the generals happily spit in the face of their culture war nonsense, someone has got to be living in delulu to think any aspect of the military or government agencies would be left behind for the neo-confederates.









  • Renewables took off in Texas because it’s

    1. Vast
    2. Flat
    3. Hot
    4. Windy

    It’s pretty much heaven for solar and wind, both of which have no qualms building out in the middle of nowhere.

    I wonder if anyone’s going to attempt tide generators with our freshly roided up storm seasons. The whole East Coast has barrier islands that are all about to sink, so we won’t even have to go down far to anchor them.

    Windmills are taking off now in Wyoming, and I can’t believe it took them this long, loaded down freighters get blown over hourly every fucking day in Wyoming. They built their freeways with massive shoulders just to wreck on. Windmill farms are all down central and Eastern Washington, central and eastern Oregon and California. I can’t speak much to the Midwest but you can’t drive 5miles thru Iowa without seeing 100windmills. In between houses and shit. I like the spirit but goddamn, Iowa needs to chill.

    Solar is huge all along the sun belt. Shit I’m off-grid in Washington and I do it off 2500w of panels and 375ah of batteries. It’s not as good as having a tap to grand coulee but I don’t have an electric bill and that does more than just dry my tears, it actually makes happy.



  • Can the supremiest court control its fetishing of fucking americans? With friends like these, they say, and I say …people still have friends?

    I don’t think I’ve ever hoped the court would make the wrong decision more than this case. DO IT. Blow up the medical industry. It’s your chance Roberta, Alito, Thomas, you can undo the biggest overstep ever allowed in American history, that that class trailer FDR did with his New Deal, that Americans have any right to age with any semblance of dignity.

    Torpedo Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. DO IT. The whole medical industry, and insurance industry, are beyond saving and needs complete overhaul. Cutting the federal purse strings would force it to immediate attention. DO IT.
