No, the lasers zap children’s genitalia to turn them trans. Usually while they are using the litter boxes in public schools.
Gay, trans, same difference. Not like Ghod intended.
And the pro Gaza/Hamas/Palestine protesters and paralyze-downtown-wherever demonstrators don’t give a goddamn single flying fuck if voting for their pink unicorn candidate paves the way for Trump to take over, or if some undecided voter gets stuck in a street protest and doesn’t make it to that job interview or whatever, and decides to vote for Trump because, you know. “law and order”.
I can answer that, I mean a childish overreaction to hearing a sentiment with which you don’t agree.
I apologize to you all for your need to dread the day. I’ve been voting for 50 years now and was a dully (yes, frequently uncontested) politician in my then small town. I take full responsibility for the sad state of affairs and half-heartedly beg for forgiveness.
Ah, so transferring the original meaning, which was a psychological term for uncontrollable distress caused by something which brings back the experience of a terrible trauma. Such as hearing about a rape or seeing one acted out in a film, when you have been raped, or explosions, for someone who had lived through a war.
What word do you use for that?
In 2016 I remember friends and family saying that even though they didn’t vote for TFG, that because they knew people who did they’d have to trust that there had to have been something of value or some redeeming quality that was going to surface and it’ll be alright.
FF to 2020 and today all bets are off, the bare knuckle fighting is about to commence and gtfo with your pseudo intellectual reasonings to vote for tfg.
These fuckers aren’t even waiting for election day. (The link goes to AOL.)
RONKONKOMA, NY − On a Friday night in a warehouse plastered with posters of MAGA figures like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, former tax law professor David Clements demonstrated to a group of 30 people how to take over a public meeting if their election concerns aren’t being taken seriously.

For the last four years, a network of right-wing activists and Trump allies, like Clements, has crisscrossed the country and held thousands of organizing meetings in order to create an army of tens of thousands of community activists to collect proof of alleged fraud for lawsuits or to pressure local election officials to not certify the election. In many places, their efforts have already begun with lawsuits and a flood of information requests.
&
With just over a month until Election Day, Clements urged his audience to talk with local election officials about how election machines work, so they’ll consider not certifying the election results.
If they won’t listen, activists should physically take over public meetings, he said. Clements had the crowd practice putting their bodies between election officials and law enforcement.
I know a few LEOs. I don’t think that will end the way they envision.
Yeah, if they are white, they may get asked politely a couple of times to move, but that politeness will go only so far when they are disobeying.
Quoting AOL:
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that election officials probably understand how election machines work a lot better than Trump supporters do.
I’m hoping Pennsylvania breaks all voting records this year. We dropped off our completed ballots in person at the county election office yesterday, October 21st, which was also the deadline to register. (We don’t trust the USPS.) Never have we seen that office so crowded. We didn’t have to wait in line as they collected our sealed ballots when we got there, but there was a substantial queue of people who waited until the very last day to register. They were also doing poll worker training down the hallway so there were people there for that too. It was good to see so many people taking a serious interest in this election.
Because he uses “triggered” pejoratively? That’s hardly unique to the right.
I think the whole “Trump is a cancer that is killing American society” thing is probably more demonstrative of his political inclinations.
“Triggered” isn’t, it’s very common in leftists circles. “All the triggered people [here]”, though, is a very RW asshole phrasing.
And Hastur on a unicycle, dude - 20 fucking days later!
Some of us like to take a little time crafting our posts!
I voted today (NC). I just wish that this meant I would no longer be subjected to mailings or, more importantly, political ads on TV.
Confession: I actually don’t mind getting hundreds of political ads in the mail. Not long ago I was lamenting that one of the drawbacks of no longer having a newspaper subscription is how we never seem to have scrap paper handy for things like carving pumpkins or starting fires in the fireplace. When suddenly it occurred to me that a solution had presented itself during this Presidential election year that costs me nothing!
I dunno about your location but around here the political mailings come on stiff, coated card stock, worthless for either application.
Those are good for when you catch a spider under a cup. Slide the card underneath and transport the critter out of the house!
We get coated card stock items too, which admittedly are not very useful for jack-o-lanterns or oil drips, but can actually be used to start fires if you’ve got enough of it (voice of experience talking). What I really like are when they send those faux small sized ‘newspapers’ with ‘articles’ in them (that are in fact thinly veiled opinion pieces). Those are printed on the very same paper as our good ol local rag used to be. Those are the most useful for jack-o-lanterns - and usually the election season conveniently coincides with the holiday.
