Dimbulb donnie is just everyone’s Crazy Uncle Liberty, and it’s been Thanksgiving since about 2015.
What are the prices in Michigan? One of the complaints in Colorado is that the prices (for those without red cards, anyway) were set so high that some people were still resorting to the black market.
I sure hope so. The notion that there still are not free states when it comes to cannabis is just beyond ridiculous.
Oh, The Professional Left. I meant to add that…
Hilarious. More like they don’t want to deal with the flood of nonsense from trolls, bots, and people that just turned 14.
Man of the people. Such a populist, this elitist billionaire is…
Love Thom Hartmann; listen to his podcast these days. I remember trying to listen to Randi Rhodes way back when, and…I just remember it being kind of headache-inducing. I also listen to Fugelsang’s podcast now too…
Podcast I’ve been listening to for years has been signing off with “Fire DeJoy!!!” on nearly every episode… (The Professional Left)
ZOMG, are they doing…ballot harvesting?

I thought that when organizations like ACORN did something like this it was going to be the end of civilization and they had to be taken down with nonsense from the likes of James O’Keefe, for the good of mankind?
I do agree the zeal of the recently converted veg*ns are not very helpful in messaging. Wagging your finger at people as individuals for a lifestyle and notions about nutrition (“but where do you get your protein from”) they were likely born into/just accepted as a truth is not too helpful. Yelling at people for a dab of honey or egg or butter in something served to them…not really helping. Who has ever had their mind changed by such behaviors? If anything, this will make people double down in their delusions about how the SAD is good for them.
Yes, most animal proteins are probably setting you up for diabetes, cancer, heart disease. And it’s not really hard to discern this from looking at the evidence. Honest actors in the medical profession are already saying this, if they aren’t compromised by the SAD industry complex. They are, IMHO, not saying it nearly enough. Far too many people still think they need “protein” (in their minds, meaning dead flesh which also happens to have lots and lots of fat, too, but they don’t call this “a fat”, they call it “a protein”, lol) to live.
In my opinion, if you compare the crazy levels of animal protein consumption in America with the arc of Big Tobacco and the levels of denialism also associated with it, we are maybe in the 1980s phase - when everyone but the most reactionary knew that using tobacco AND secondary smoke were life-threatening, but just before much was being done about it - the bans on indoor smoking only started in the late 1980s.
Many people are starting to wake up from the Big Tobacco-esque levels of carnist propaganda…we’ll see what action is going to be taken by governments, institutions, etc…
If nothing else - your health.
It also explains why Big Dairy was trying to make almond milk be labeled “nut juice” and protect the term “milk”.
I really do think the SAD will be one of the last things to fall in our path toward progression - and that’s assuming we steadily progress. Seeing donnie and his supporters doesn’t exactly lead me to believe that about ~30% of this country wants any progress. The reactionaries have been doing nearly all they can to deride, mock and hold back any and all forms of reduction of our ridiculous levels of consumption of dairy and dead flesh for years and years. I even still run into some of them that think being a (male) vegetarian will turn you into a woman or something, because “protein”, LOL.
There is a lot of propaganda to overcome on the path to getting Americans to eat a properly healthy diet AND to curb the massive global warming from their current diet already - and dumb fad diets like eating all-steak like Peterson or the “paleo” diet are not helping at all.
When it comes to progress, the SAD will be one of the last things to fall, IMHO.
Even swapping out the same thing by creating clean meat has the anti-woke warriors all aflame and clutching their pearls about how they’ll all turn into “soy boys” if they aren’t killing something in order to “get their protein”…imagine going full plant-based, my word.
Yesterday, I saw a few of donnie’s loyalists standing out on a corner at a place with steady traffic, trying to get cars and pedestrians to honk/give them a thumb’s up. In the hot sun. No idea if they were paid or not. They were way up in years and probably could be doing almost anything else but that. But these people love dimbulb donnie, no matter how much of a disaster he’ll be. The worse off it is for the country, they’ll cheer it on, as long as they believe donnie is going to hurt the right people.
Just made me look forward to filling out my ballot all the more. But definitely, everyone: go vote. Don’t believe the polls.
I spent my formative years in a very rural area, and that tracks with my experience.
Donnie has concepts of a plan.
He’s totally losing it. He was never competent for the job and he becomes even less so with each day.
And yet - this very weekend, I saw his loyalists standing out on the corner waving their stupid donnie merchandise and trying to get passing cars to honk in approval…
I don’t know of anyone considering getting rid of guns that would be used for pest control in a rural area. Beyond slogans and bumper stickers, is anyone seriously proposing that?
I think that the people in the places where nearly all the people live (urban centers and their suburban surroundings) surely can arrive at sane guns laws, taking into account the (valid) concerns of the few remote rural people.
So that covers gun laws. Is there anything that the majority of voters cannot grasp about how to govern rural areas?
This should be the word of the year, by the way. Someone really, really nailed it with that portmanteau. It perfectly describes what the “liberal media” does all the time with RWNJs like dimbulb donnie.
