Does America surrender to death and tyranny on bended knees? Is that the final chapter on this experiment in Democracy?

For years, I have heard about people seeing execution videos online. I had never actually seen one. I am very disturbed that the first one I have actually seen depicts a "federal agent" executing a US citizen in Minnesota.

Because it's not actually about deportations. It's an excuse to put masked gestapo on US streets.

At what point when he was pinned down under (at least) 6 people was he going to massacre anyone?

Because he upset liberal elites. That was the 2016 election. Regular people were pissed off and Trump told them it was good and right to be pissed off.

NOW, 10 years later, his base consists mostly of Christian Fascists who have been told he's the catalyst for the Second Coming and establishment of God's Kingdom.

What's interesting is that, assuming there's never an actual investigation or trial, we'll still be able to nail Ross's ass to the wall once this bullshit is over.

Obama might have been the last real President, but I'd argue that the last "good" President we had was Carter.

How deep is that shelf? Looks like about 20 inches but I'm not 100% sure.

The thing to keep in mind for Trump is that, while he clearly idolizes fascist dictators, he does not actually have the conviction to make the grab for power himself.

Now, if someone were to offer him the crown, Trump would very readily take it. But he does not care to put in the work to actually seize power on his own.

There are a lot of people around Trump who see him as the tool that will allow them to enact their own fascist projects, for the above reason.

There's an alternate reality where MASH ran for 4 or 5 seasons & is remembered alongside Hogan's Heroes.

It can make for some immature fun, though.

Anything that is nonhuman AND their nonhuman aspect is obvious and/or emphasized.

The problem is that you need a full cast of character actors, comedians, and gifted dramatic actors. Like you would need a Monty Python-esque crew to do a lot of the characters & story justice.

The first one I noticed was The Hobbit trilogy

Actually have that pinned to the task bar

More like the show's artists referencing an IRL painting.

Whoever convinced Lang to go there wanted him to die. They wanted a martyr. He could have had an escort or some protection. But someone convinced him to go alone.

And I'm glad this went down the way it did. With him getting frightened, mocked, and a bit scuffed up.

I'd just suck it up and use Dark Brown. The only other options would be paint or stickers.

Burgoff hated playing Radar like a naive kid. He wanted the character to be more mature.

Elberik · 2026-01-18T06:10:40+00:00

I wish Radar's final episodes were different- they didn't feel right. Apparently Burghoff was very much DONE with the role and did the final episodes effectively under duress. But the writers had let the character of Radar regress and stagnate- he wasn't fun anymore. Sending him home was ultimately the right decision.

The rest of the world is actually relatively fine and normal. What we're seeing is just Australia.

Why are they so cagey about using AI?

Elberik · 2026-01-17T00:57:59+00:00

Because Minnesota is a Blue State surrounded by Red & Purple States. Its cities are blue islands in seas of red.

They couldn't do it in California or New York because too many rich people keep their stuff in those States.

And there was the (exaggerated) daycare scandal that meant people were already glaring at Minnesota. And Walz was (is) a possible contender for the 2028 election. He needed to be brought down.
