I’ve used Youtube for informational purposes as well. How to rebuild a small engine carburetor. How to properly install double-hung blinds. Who’s the best champion to beat Mysterio. But also entertainment - choreography, music, fan theories about Marvel movie properties.

Are you sure? I get the impression there is nothing happening in that head-shaped object. Synapses may be firing, but they go nowhere productive.

“Influencer” should not be part of our vernacular.  You should not be able to make money because you like something, regardless of how much stupid shit you put on the internet.  If you want to be a functional member of society, you need some actual expertise in something that is useful to the rest of us.  You can…

Better angels. Riiiiight. I just saw a Republican Better Angel jerking off an oil lobbyist while throttling an immigrant. Ambidextrous!

They found out a black man was kneeling there.

It makes you a racist. You’re anti-white.

On the bright side, it shows that Pence has a modicum of self-awareness, unlike the MAGA chuds who attend Trump rallies.

I can see this happening.  Something along the lines of a horrific chant coming up, and Trump saying “Oh, you guys.  Stop it.  Really.  Really, we should stop.  It’s not nice.”

Trump is clearly more patriotic than the Squad. How many times have they humped a flag?

We’re no better.  We didn’t say anything about the tan suit.  We just all sat here like it was no big deal.  We were complicit in a crime against fashion.

Am I understanding correctly that a three judge panel said Congress can’t see Trump’s financial records because he’d benefit indirectly even if he didn’t personally receive income from his properties?  So basically you can legally bribe the President, just not in cash?

His responses are so predictable, and his vocabulary so limited, that the bar to program a believable AI to replicate them is very low.  Are we sure he isn’t already a robot, programmed by some malignant racist who couldn’t quite get the skin tone and hair right?

It keeps pretty quiet to the rank and file, but the drywall lobby has serious pull in Hollywood.

His campaign is doomed, but he looks good in a polo shirt.  He has me inspired to hit the gym and be less doughy, which unfortunately for his campaign is the only inspiration I draw from him.

Or, right.  We’re taking it out of context.  Or they were being funny.  Or they were funny out of context, which would be true if it wasn’t all so terrifying.

My brain is bending into a pretzel trying to understand the “logic” he’s trying to sell.

Maybe that’s not such a bad idea. Once Trump declares himself emporer in 2020, it’s going to get ugly in here.

“I called him ‘president of the United States, as we all did,” Scalise claimed

When you get into billions of dollars, I think hard work only takes you so far, no matter what the tax rate is. If you’re taking in a billion dollars, someone else is getting the shaft. Nothing you do with your hands, brain, or even naughty bits is worth a billion dollars.

Supposedly the private sector is supposed to produce competition to drive that calculus in the other direction. Companies that provide inferior product at inflated cost will lose to the innovator who provides comparable or better quality at lower cost. I just don’t think we’re seeing that because the system isn’t set…
