“Peace through strength” has such an aweful ring to it. From the first recorded historical use forward it has been used by empires using rethoric to whitewash their aggression.

Actual Microsoft rollout practices 🤣

…and nothing will change, because the administration holds itself above and beyond the reach of the law and the judiciary.

Flavor-aid actually, but in this case who cares so long as the solution is the same.

That’s what I’m thinking reading this and other articles. It’s like the Republican party is reaching to find increasingly desperate ways to get into Trump’s graces, to the point that it feels like they’re running out of ideas by this point and have started a race to the bottom debasing themselves for his amusement.

How does this man hold so much sway over them? He has the charisma of a wet rag, the character and patience if a toddler, and the long term vision of a house fly. Out of all the things I read about him and his cult, this is the one thing that baffles me the most.

There is a minimum required amount of bronzer you’re required to apply to be accepted into the MAGA leadership. See also the transformation Ron DeSantis pulled.

Not sure why your getting downvoted, this is a pretty legit question.

Don Jr really can’t stop saying the dumbest things and making himself or whoever he’s talking about look worse in the process. I’d say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he’s actually even less aware than his dad.

Sure, but let’s all agree it could be worse.

If it were added to this meme, it’d have a reaction somewhere between the Supra and the Eclipse. Something like “oh, okay”.

What do you mean? At least the new WRX is still a sedan, still AWD, still has a boxer, and can still be bought as a manual.

Sure, it’s making about the same horsepower as 20 years ago, and it got progressively heavier as Subaru needed to add more safety equipment to remain compliant, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Ford and Mitsubishi taking legendary name plates and slapping them on crossover SUVs.

Thanks for sharing these gems. I can almost feel the exasperation in some of the emails and their replies.

Red Bull looked at that and said “hold my energy drink while I create crashed ice”

That last line captures exactly what I think they were going for. This was about as faithful of a Deadpool comic book as you could’ve made within the medium of movies.

There is a market for movies that make you think as much as there is a market for movies that are just about spectacle.

Calling one more true to the art of cinema than the other does a disservice to the medium and all the expressive, creative, and entertainment potential it holds.

Calling it the death of movies is so hyperbolic, it is beyond nonsense and frankly smacks of elitism.

The rest of the world agrees. Funny how even the broken clock that is the current Republican party is right every now and then.

That’s the worst part imho. We should hold Ford accountable and demand that money back if they unilaterally decide to axe the plan we collectively funded.

Remember how we used to think people should retire in old age, instead of running a country? Pepperidge farm remembers.

It’s a good thing the Republican leadership is as incompetent as they are morally bankrupt, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t managed to stumble their way into pushing the US to the brink of a dictatorship. As the KGB used to say, a lot of them are “useful idiots” which can be orchestrated by careful external manipulation.

I’m not onboard with that conspiracy, as there were certainly attempts on his life throughout his reign. But I do agree with the relevancy of that Sun Tzu quote.

By 1943 Hitler was making such poor decisions it would’ve actually benefited the Nazi war effort if he had been removed from power.

That last part is the terrifying bit, honestly. Trump is an egomaniac with the attention span of a toddler. He’s an unguided projectile of spite and vanity.

Imagine someone competent filling his shoes with the unprecedented powers that were recently granted by the supreme court and the rabid MAGA fanbase behind them.

The potential for lasting damage goes (even further) off the scale. I shudder to think what that might actually look like.

Honestly, in the event Biden loses, the best hope the US has is Trump’s general incompetence.
