Last night. That’s why it’s so hard for people to see. Also, a LOT OF PEOPLE want American democracy to be over. And they’re being less and less coy about it. Now that it’s being used more and more to serve people who aren’t them, they are done with it and want everything burned down. Because people, by and large, are…

There’s a strong scent of nihilism in the current air. Also, people aren’t offered solutions to the many looming and ongoing crises (or rather ones where they don’t have to move out of their comfort zone), so a win for them becomes less about improving the future and more about making it worse for the people they hate.

Delivery driver: “Ok, that’s $60 for 5 pizzas, delivering to xxx address. I’ll be there in 30 minutes.”

Based on the number of paranoid wack-a-doos in my neighborhood, I see this definitely being adopted.  One house I pass by when walking my dog says in a very loud automated voice “YOU ARE BEING RECORDED” and I’m on the opposite side of the street.  It is so weird, this paranoid, fear-based right-wing bubble so many…

Is this some kind of joke?  I can see that bullshit going sideways.  the liability on something like that is enormous.

“The bank sends the employees a relaxing video montage of photos of that employee’s family set to music.”
