It's been like 12 days lol

Those who think this is only going to be four years are deluding themselves.

Exactly. Even if he leaves office in four years and we never hear from him again, the ripple effects of his presidencies will take decades to unfold and undo.

A upsettingly large portion of the country doesn’t understand how the world works in any meaningful capacity

At this point I'd rather see California split off and become it's own country (not gonna happen, but I can dream).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Imagine if California joined the European Union. Ultimate freedom country.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

That'd be pretty rad. Hell, I'd be down to be Canadian at this point. I just want to live a quiet, peaceful life dammit. I'm not looking forward to the next few years.

Doesn't the EU require countries to be physically located somewhere around Europe?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Unfortunately yes. There are some exceptions, like French Guyana in South America being in the European Union, but that's because it's under the republic of France.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Colonies are indeed an exception

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Also, Cyprus is not technically in Europe, but it's still in the EU.

Cyberpunk theme intensifies

Where are my goddamn robot arms. We have corporate hellscapes, hacker collectives, and private militaries, but I still can’t get robo limbs at a Walgreens walk up clinic.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

That would be great, but what would prevent the fascist country next door with the most powerful military in the world from annexing it back?

I read somewhere that someone spoke about how it might take 40 years to get rid of Mr. Trump's wild ride

[–] [email protected] 41 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Try being a Federal employee. Or trans. Or a minority. Or a veteran. Or in need of various social services. Or any combination.

For some the last 2 weeks already feels like a year. For others it's potentially life ending.

Fuck everyone who voted for this.

Umm…it’s not even Feb. 20th yet…

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

lol yeah it’s only been two weeks

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Two weeks?

More like 13 days and 12 hours (and counting...)

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe you mean "four years of progress undone"?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Four years of status quo regressed

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It hasn't even been two fucking weeks. We're still 2 weeks away from being 1/52 of the way through this hell (assuming we still have sections in 4 years)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

We have a midterm in 1 year and 9 months.
