I feel guilty that I think Kesha’s new song is awful. I was always a fan, but the singing is…one of the worst things I’ve ever heard? Idk, maybe I’m just finally getting old.

My immediate reaction to this was: “Hell yeah dude, that sounds like a good fucking day.”

Lmao it doesn’t even fit with the number of letters she sings.

I deleted a post that I made on the dunk tank the other day of a funny comment I found on /r/politics when I realized it broke rule #8. You’re all welcome.

This is unironically one of my favorite songs

I live in a swing state, and some of Michigan’s Democrats - though your typical libs - aren’t the biggest fucking ghouls you’ve ever seen for the most part. I could stomach voting for Whitmer if it came down to it. I’d have no problem voting for Tlaib, if all I had to do was mail in a ballot lol. But the Democratic Party would never let her get near a Presidential primary lmao.

Can anyone find the clip where Biden is incoherently rambling, stumbling over his words, forgets what he’s saying, and after the moderator cuts him off with, “Thank you President Biden,” he goes, “And by the way!..” and just stares into space for several seconds? That was one of the funniest (and saddest) things I’ve ever seen during a debate.

If I saw this at a thrift store for $5 or less, I would cop this and use it lmao

Whitmer would decimate Trump tbh.

You think so? I’ll be honest, and I’m showing my libness here, but I might actually consider voting for her if she was the candidate.

Turns your kids into atheists and then transitions - continues teaching

She has always been pretty badass. I graduated 16 years ago and still have great memories of the classes I had with her as my teacher.

If it’s going to happen, it sounds like the likely candidates might be Harris, Newsom, or Whitmer. I don’t have much faith that any of them could beat Trump, lol.

The political history nerd in me is honestly finding this really fascinating to be witnessing right now. Seeing liberal pundits saying that Biden needs to step down before the convention, reading all of the articles about it, etc. This might be one of those things that gets talked about in Presidential history 50 years from now, how abysmal Joe Biden was as a president and how his own party could no longer deny how unfit he was to remain as president (4 months before the election lmao).

Yeah, my high school offered a “Bible as Literature” class that was instrumental in me denouncing my faith and becoming agnostic. That teacher was my favorite, we’ve kept in touch and she recently transitioned into a woman.

One of my favorite Hexbear memories (chapo.chat at the time) was the community watch party for the first Trump-Biden debate in 2020. I got drunk, and afterwards we started playing music videos and I got introduced to the Paradise Killer soundtrack by a fellow user.

Exactly. Like, sure, let’s get Biden into office somehow in 2025 to “prevent” Project 2025. What then? The plan is to make sure that the Democrat wins every four years indefinitely, until the end of time? That’s unsustainable, and they aren’t even on our side to begin with. Meanwhile, state governments are receiving almost zero resistance in passing their right wing agendas anyway.

Project 2025 and the impending overt fascist takeover is the inevitable conclusion of what happens when you allow capitalists to control society and influence the government. The system that allows this to happen is incapable of stopping it, and the Democrats aren’t going to save us.

Oh wow, yeah that definitely justifies why some fans think that the Commonwealth and Capital Wasteland should be further along with their development and advancements. It sounds like it’s a Bethesda problem, if the original studio already laid out in the canon that some factions were already making progress in rebuilding.

Ugh. I got into a pretty heated discussion with my most radical anticapitalist friend a few days ago about this. She’s queer and disabled, and has a very real stake in being afraid of what the Republicans plan to do if they get into power next year.

It’s tough, because they really do make valid points. But also, it’s impossible to explain that putting all of our hopes in the democrats isn’t going to stop it. I’m sorry this discourse has made its way to your neck of the woods, lol.

even gay women can be straight men.

When will the woke stop

In all seriousness, I hope you’re having fun!

I’ve played like 200 hours of Fallout 4 over the past 6 weeks, and I never really considered this. The canon you’re making up makes a lot of sense, and would definitely make the Commonwealth feel more real.

I’m not a huge Fallout-head, so I don’t know all of the lore. But I guess I figured that the reason the settlements are still so ramshackle is because resources are scarce and organizing the brainpower/manpower to really develop would be difficult in an apocalyptic wasteland where everyone and everything is trying to kill you, or take what little you have.
