"I just stole 1.7 billion dollars!"
That's all I'm hearing
I've come to the conclusion that most of the Twitter Trump Parrots have absolutely no idea what most of their daily hate words even mean.
Eight minutes’ hate.
How are we still doing climate change denial in $current_weather?
It has been unseasonably cool where I live. We're talking low 80's, 26-ish celcius.
Weather is very hard to conceptualize for us monkeys. It's very easy for someone who never needs to stay in one place to have a completely incorrect perception of what weather or climate actually is. People who do stay in one place seem to struggle with it, that should tell you what you need to know.
Is it also very hard for monkeys to look at graphs? They don't seem to have trouble with it when it's in service of screwing us out of money
When you're asking them to look at graphs or the obscene wealth they can gain from screwing others over — yes, yes it is very hard.
I'm not justifying or excusing their behavior. I'm just explaining it.
Oh come on, snake_casing when you could have made it look like an $ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE?
The casing is not important here because, no matter how you write it the "current weather" always is an ENVIRONMENT variable ;)
People don't want you to know this but you can make env vars lowercase now.
DEI is everything I don't like. Same as woke.
Any time you see a politician ranting about DEI, replace it in your mind with the n-word. That’s what they’re really saying. No, it doesn’t matter that people of any race can use it; Republicans have spent the past 6 decades cementing the idea of public projects and vilified racial minorities being inherently linked.
Every time you see the term "DEI" or "woke" or whatever, just imagine it's some loser fucking dude from the mid 2000s in a sweat stained Tapout t-shirt and substitute the terms with "gay and retarded" and it'll make just as much sense, if not more. That's ultimately the essence of those terms anyways. The only difference is that with the term "DEI" they get to posture as a serious person with an actual point that deserves to be taken seriously. Bike lanes are gay. Caring about the environment is gay. Anti-hazing policy in the military is retarded. Etc. Etc.
Its like all the stupid "Lets Go Brandon" nonsense because they are all too much of a bunch of pussies to just say "Fuck Joe Biden."
Guess what, Fuck Trump.
See, its easy, I don't need some clever bull shit because I am not some softy ass coward.
Outrage tourist grifter "Ranting for Vengeance" is trying his best to bring back "gay and retarded".
It's kinda like gatcha currency, where the extra step makes it harder for people to know how much they're spending.
They spent so long trying to establish that "DEI is bad", without clearly defining what it is or why it's bad. But people just went along and accepted it. So now they can literally just point to something and say "That's DEI!" and that extra step is too much for people to put together they're just being told not to like something without a proper reason. And they just believe it because they succumb to social pressure easily and go along with whatever the "in-group" does because they're afraid of becoming part of the "out-group".
And the crazy thing is that they were never part of the "in-group" to begin with they just think they are lol. It's really kinda crazy manipulation. I'd respect it if they weren't using it to enrich themselves and fist fuck the planet.
Right? Can we please get some nefarious masterminds who want to manipulate people into, idk the Green New Deal or something actually helpful?
Tf is Boot-edge-edge? I can't keep up with idiot name calling conventions.
and Bootyjudge was right there
This is not a demographic known for its witty rhetoric.
It’s what some McKinsey guy, who will sadly be president some day, thought (so profoundly prematurely and presumptuously) that we stupid rubes could use, and more importantly, would actually give a shit to use, suddenly, to talk about this McKinsey guy that we all love.
Because, you know, all we know are words like boot and edge. We have never even heard if IPA or a dictionary or anything more than one-syllable words.
You just know this douchebag workshopped the shit out of his own name’s ‘idiot-proof’ pronunciation for like, 400 hours per year of his like 70,000 hrs + overtime + over-overtime per year at McManageTheWorld Inc (And also totally ruin it, see the book When McKinsey Comes to Town)
he sounds like an edgy teenager and he's in control of billions in tax money. I miss a world without xitter.
It’s called a bi-cycle for a reason ;)
The lanes were made out of black tops!
Wow, you all are on fire today. Well done.
Its a DEI bike lane because you didn't earn it. You earn a lane by taking on $80,000 in debt to buy a F350.
Instructions unclear, I'm now stuck in the bike lane with my F350
Diversity of transport modes
Equity in infrastructure quality
Inclusion in transportation planning
Support our pollutionarily-challenged cyclist friends! Not everyone is able to make a mess of the environment equally!
Maybe if they really, really oil their chain a whole lot?
rolling coal for cyclists: attach a pot of crude oil dripping onto your chain and splatter that shit everywhere.
Fantastic idea!
Only if you also had a sprayer to apply it to the shiniest diesel trucks you see.
yeah you just redirected it into your pockets you fucking crooks
It's all in-group pandering and shitty petro-masculinity. No conservatives should be in power. They are bad people.
Are people allowed to pit Truck Nuts on their EVs?
Also Pretro Masculinity describes exactly why I could not handle watching Landman. Because that show was basically that mindset distilled into TV. Frankly, everything by Taylor Sheridan kind of falls into that bucket.
petro-masculinity
That's a new term for me, thanks. Been seeing a lot of that recently, and I had a thought: my EV and solar panels aren't just about the environment, they're independence. I can make a kilowatt-hour with stuff I have at home. I cannot make a gallon of gasoline with stuff I have at home.
Anyone who has a problem with bike lanes should just kill themselves and save the rest of us from their dumbassery. Duffy is another waste of skin.
I betcha the money will be moved around and eventually discovered with a few million missing.
He's going to regret not having bike lanes when Trump restarts war with Iran, and this time without strategic oil reserve.
I just redirected $1.73 billion in USDOT grants away from Biden-era DEI pet projects
To where? The war?
Commas are WOKE commie!
Tangent, but is "bikers" the right word? I use bicyclists or cyclists or bike riders for people who pedal. To me "bikers" ride motorcycles, which means they use the car lanes and burn fuel, although their individual politics might be DEI.
Could just be me, though.
It's because they're too LGB(iciclyst)T[...]-friendly.
My bad. *Un-ADHDs my brain. Reenables my autobiographical memory. Activates my visual imagination.
Can I have my bike lane now?
