I like to imagine how the world would look if socialized healthcare were idealized the same way as oil/guns:
“Come and take it! 💉”
“We call 911!”
“A healthy society is a polite society”
“Better to have healthcare and not need it than to need healtcare and not have it.”
“Heal, baby, heal!”
“Health is wealth.”
“Domestic healthcare. National strength.”
“More coverage, more jobs.”
“Lower costs start with public health.”
Yo mama so leaky even BP won’t drill her.
It’s Groundhog Day Life.
It was thrown by Gary of Gary’s Glaziery. The only other game in town.
Yes, he’s speedrunning a Clancy plot. No, he doesn’t read enough to know it, which actually makes it more concerning in my opinion.
Because the president was caught keeping espionage and nuclear secrets documents in his home by a photocopier while taking money from foreign countries that would really like to have a nuclear weapon and then a bunch of US spies and nuclear weapons experts died afterward? Could that be it? Just spitballing here.
That is a far less fun concept than the name led me to believe.
"The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal,”
Then they go on to list a bunch of anti-democratic suggestions. They also defend billionaires while criticizing “elites.” It’s less disinformation and more incoherent ramblings of wealthy, one-trick ponies trapped in an echo chamber of yes men.
As soon as I saw this post, I knew the dark jokes were incoming. I just didn’t think we’d hit rock bottom so fast. That’s just the tip of the problem, in my opinion.
And the unicycle is a rental.
These kids ain’t gonna learn, ‘lessn we take off them trainin’ wheels…and also the pedals, brake, chain and maybe another wheel or two.
Thank you. I think that’s why I could only get a few lines
Also, I’d recommend tamari instead. I don’t think it’s as traditional for sushi, but it’s less salty and richer. It seems less likely to overpower the fish rather than complement it.
If the itamae didn’t want me submerging my nigiri in soy sauce, he would have made it more buoyant.
Maybe it’s a sample size issue. They were a less common in the 2000s. Also Iran is a lot bigger, more populous, and technologically advanced than Iraq was at that time.

When most psych ward residents
More than the president
Seem to be the ones sane
Or when libertarians
And other vulgarians
all have much more a brain…
This is turning into an Animaniacs song.
Weird how the number of random crashes go up in war zone.
1960s “That didn’t happen” Early(ish) research on climate change is buried.
1970s “And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.” Severity of impacts downplayed
1980s “And if it was, it’s not a big deal.” Oil companies form a coalition to oppose regulation."
1990s “And if it is, it wasn’t my fault.” Think tanks begin switch to accepting climate change but rejecting it’s anthropogenic nature."
2000s “And if it was, I didn’t mean it.” Oil companies try to disavow their earlier knowledge of research, engage in greenwashing.
2010s “And if I did, you deserved it.” BP, among others, encourages consumers to limit their carbon footprint to save the environment, despite the fact that the majority of contribution is from industrial and commercial sources.
This timeline is sloppy. There’s a lot of overlap. I’m more trying to paint a picture of what happened. In reality, the research is older. Some parties are still trying to argue the climate either isn’t changing or that the earth is getting colder. Chaos is an important part of disinformation.
