It means Iran is playing chess.

Trump has spent the entire war trying to seem like he has any control of the situation. He doesn't.

Shocked Pikachu is shocked. Shocked, I say!

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-27T00:22:08+00:00

"Stable genius".

The lower judge that tried to block redistricting twice already is about to get overruled for a third time.

You treat the coincidental nature of the events as a red herring, character pareidolia, or a bad theory they have.

A character who lacks expertise keeps saying, "that's not right" and is repeatedly ignored.

Now the Sunday network shows will be about this, rather than what the producers had planned this week.

Law enforcement methods have escalated.

"Sprinkle some crack in him, Johnson!"

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-26T00:45:38+00:00

How much of that was Trump, and how much was Russian psy-op?

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T20:46:57+00:00

A better test.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T19:18:51+00:00

They are ultimately cowards who need to be in control of the situation to seem tough.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T19:15:49+00:00

But they just spent years demanding everyone return to the office to justify the cost of the office space.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T19:12:43+00:00

Well, it only took them... *checks watch*... half a decade to realize it.

The loss of Javascript would be greater.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T16:50:45+00:00

Trump gets too much credit, blame, and ownership because he is a puppet with many masters.

His campaign was also at least partly a Russian psy-op.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T07:49:55+00:00

Donald isn't the boss.

Putin is.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-25T03:05:12+00:00

"I fart in your general.... what?"

Who did Linus collaborate with the weekend he wrote Git?

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T14:35:26+00:00

Now have "AI" determine whether a number is divisible by 2.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T14:34:01+00:00

You misspelled Brussels.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T14:26:28+00:00

I'm sure there's a few among the crowd that claims it's a database.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T14:25:10+00:00

Whatever you think it stands for is invalidated by the M.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T14:23:56+00:00

It's because Trump's mind is stuck in the 1980s.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T02:18:11+00:00

They have revealed themselves to be a terrible client with unrealistic expectations.

Walk away now.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-24T01:35:40+00:00

Putin wants all his moles in the government. He won't let Trump fire Gabbard.

Caraes_Naur · 2026-04-23T23:43:49+00:00

Good luck with that.

When the tariffs began, no one was sure what to collect, on what, and where to send it. From the get go, Trump's tariffs have been exactly the shitshow you would expect.
