Never watched Designated Survivor before and just started it, an itch in my brain is being scratched. The itch gets worse when I see how useless Congress is.

Only a handful of the GOP are onboard the Epstein discharge petition, make sure to call your GOP House rep and ask why they're protecting kid diddlers.

Or why they are doing nothing about the largest bribe in history to a president. Not to mention the foreign emoluments that he's now expanded to crypto.

And while I'm pissed off, it used to be the president would propose a budget, and Congress would make unpopular votes to pass a bill transferring wealth to the top. They found this was too much work and posing a threat to their reelections, so now the Congress shall propose budgets and the president will bring the efficiency of ignoring any parts of the budget which do not benefit the wealthy. No longer will they have to worry about whatever amendments or concessions were made to get the paper tiger formality of a bill passed.

And then, they grouped together, sat together and pretended to enjoy everyone else's presence. All this, to face orange skinned statue of god. God of incompetence and hatred, the one who elevated their powers to near god's levels.

But not for free. Now they are his slave. Now they fear that he, can use his power against them. The power they summoned now makes them fear for their own.

So they tell the god sweet little lies he loves to listen to, never satisfied, he listen in silence. He plans how to make himself free from his summoners influence, how to be free, and punish them.

They now all group together so we can easily identify who are the evil tech companies. How convenient.

If only someone would have rigged that room with explosives..

I feel nauseous. Not one asshole at that table had the courage to speak up.

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago

Speaking up? They're living the dream. I'm sure all of them think he's a stupid asshole, but also glad they can keep expanding their surveillance capitalism empire

How many of them are on Epstein's list? Bill Gates got divorced because he was a little to friendly with Epstein...

I hear if you remove your jaw you can fit an extra inch in there

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's not needed with Trump. They don't even have to fully open their mouths.

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

If my calculations are correct you can get the balls and part of the pelvis in there.
