Stay on the path.

  Hey, listen, you gotta… listen Jack, the path. You can’t get off it. There’s a dozen little guys, they’re all over the place. I just… It’s… when I was a young man I had this friend named Corn Pop and they for him too. Hairest legs. We used to go swimming and he felt like a cockroach. That’s why you can’t go off the path, Jack.

  • Thanks, but can you just show me your wares
  • [Vote] I nominate you for President
  • That’s all I needed to hear, goodbye.

    Look, a president who can go through an entire term with all of the late-night hosts, only being able to make him sound charming, I want that kind of boring president again.

      only being able to make him sound old and charming

      He certainly sounded old. But we were nowhere near charming by the end. The guy was actively complicit in a genocide overseas when he wasn’t bumbling through a rising tide of fascist opposition.

      I want that kind of boring president again.

      Nothing about '21-'25 was boring. We needed a chief executive ready to dismantle the Trump 1 administration and scatter his Red State/Groyper/Business Plot coalition. Instead, we got him handing blank checks to the same Silicon Valley goons that would flush his party out of power and begin chainsawing the administrative state to the bone.

      Assuming we make it to '29 with a semblance of democracy still intact, the last thing we’re going to need is a Schumer tier do-nothing in office to clean up the biggest, bloodiest, most society-crippling mess of the last generation. All we’d be doing is queuing up Trump 3.

      Even then, I think its clear that the damage being done today is functionally irreversible. DHS is becoming a junta in its own right. Everything from the HHS to NOAA is being scrapped for parts. The courts are already packed with fascists and are rewriting jurisprudence in real time. A full half of the liberal party’s representatives seem utterly blase at this turn of events, more interested in gassing up crypto scams and bailing out industrial giants than maintaining any kind of regulatory state.

      You could bring in Bernie Sanders as King of America tomorrow and I don’t think we’d be able to pull out of this nose dive.

    That’s good advice. You’ve got my vote.

  It’s still incredible to me that there were democrats that insisted that Biden had possibly the best debate performance ever.

  I played enough Zork that I’m never surprised by grues.
