setting aside whether or not trump actually shit himself in that press conference (he did), what do you think the secret service code for the president shitting himself is? i assume it happens often enough with this president that they have one

Every hour of every day it’s some fucking thing with this administration. Sometimes it’s just annoying and sometimes it’s horrific. And it’s not like this nation didn’t know. We chose this, a second time.

I watched the video and pretty much everyone is representing it pretty much accurately and I don't think you need to watch it if your takeaway is that a bunch of ICE guys were on top of a dude who they were beating and then one of them decided to shoot him at point blank range for no obvious reason

A goddamn hero.

"He estimated that he was roughly 60 feet away from Trump on Tuesday and that the president could hear him 'very, very, very clearly...' 'I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity,' Sabula said. 'And today I think I did that.'”

How many of you knew about Night Rider’s older brother? No one? Not surprising. Apparently he was a trucker with an eye for the ladies. Oh, and he’s on the run from a bear. A bear that’s also a state trooper.

Aside from inviting the most polarizing person on the planet and all-round jackass, McDonalds really kicked their franchise employees in the teeth. Gotta’ think many (most?) are immigrants, or one degree removed.

Trump: "They had restrictions on water. It comes down from heaven. You want to wash your hands, or like me, you wash your hair. I lather up. There's no water. I won't mention the 3rd item in the bc I always get criticized. If you don't know what I'm talking about you shouldn't be owning a McDonalds"

The newer VCS is great. I own one and love it for what it is. Obviously Atari is winding it down, which makes sense. But why throw the baby out with the bath water? Atari OS has value and could port to a future +-series console to give it more depth. What say you @atari.com? #atari

Tesla shareholders approved Elon Musk's $1 trillion pay package. Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, can't afford to feed their families, and struggle with cuts to the safety net made to finance tax cuts for the super-rich. American capitalism is off the rails.
