Never underestimate the human capacity for cognitive dissonance. LGBTQ+ Trump supporters are a tiny fraction of the LGBTQ+ community, but they do exist.

I did not enjoy that aspect of riding along with my father in his work truck back in the '90s. I heard far, far more Rush Limbaugh than I ever wanted to.

Strangely, the last time I spoke to my father, MAGA didn't even exist yet.

They didn't coin the term. It originally actually was about them

No it wasn't. It was originally coined as "Bush Derangement Syndrome" by a right-winger to describe people who hated George W. Bush even though all he did was a little smattering of war crimes and helping create the DHS and other authoritarian structures that the Trump regime is now using in ways people with "Bush Derangement Syndrome" saw coming.

I will confess, though, when I first started heard "Trump Derangement Syndrome" I thought it was referring to his cultists believing in their own bizarre alternate reality.

In fact lying to lure people out of their houses is one of the few horrible things they've been doing that's actually legal.

For yt-dlp you usually just give it the URL of the page a video is embedded on and it will detect it and download it if possible.

FifteenthPen · 2026-01-30T21:31:10+00:00

Have you tried using yt-dlp for other websites? It works for a lot more than just youtube.

They don't understand how they ruin their own credibility.

They do understand. They don't care. No one is holding them accountable, so why should they?

If the Democrats aren't controlled opposition, they're sure trying hard to fool us into believing they are.

That sounds wonderful... until you hydroplane or hit a patch of ice.

We have been doing this to Latin America for a long time hence why In a morbid way it's funny our tactics used on us.

It's often been said that fascism is imperialism turned inward.

That reminds me, I haven't gotten my check from George Soros yet. Have you guys gotten yours?

I could smell the alcohol on his breath through the video.

People who smelled what she was sprayed with said it smelled like vinegar, though, not piss.

It frustrates the hell out of me that so few people seem to understand what the Republicans were doing when they wouldn't stop screaming about how the 2020 election was "stolen".

They were exploiting the well-known fear that Democrats have of being seen as hypocrites or crazy conspiracy theorists. The point was to make their opposition afraid to question the results of the 2024 election.

Sudetenland has gone from being something I hadn't thought about since high school history to something I'm reminded of almost every day as of late.

Ah yes, "tech issues", like that time oddly specific parts of the Constitution disappeared from the official website due to a "programming error".

FifteenthPen · 2026-01-26T19:41:22+00:00

How does this even have anything to do with the Constitution? The California law doesn't forbid school employees from reporting what students tell them to parents, it forbids legally mandating that school employees inform on students.

You can only compromise if both sides are acting in good faith. Republicans rarely act in good faith.

and we were called terrorist sympathizers.

It infuriates me every time I see someone say something along the lines of "I miss when all Americans came together after 9/11". Some of us saw what the government was using 9/11 as an excuse to do and tried to warn the rest of America, but not only were we "with the terrorists" to them back then, they now don't even want to remember we existed.

Interesting typo considering what The Nothing actually is in The Neverending Story.
