What a long, strange trip it's been

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

So, long, America. Been good to serve you.

Welcome to Amerika, folks! The fuckin christofascists will be in charge, shortly.

First he's got to fire Jack Smith and dismiss all the charges against himself.

He's definitely not going to be the same Trump as he was last time. His handlers are organized, he's got immunity. This is dangerous.

The memorial may wait until after the trial of the shooter.

Welcome back! Too bad it's under such dire circumstances. I joined BRN during the 2008 POTUS campaign. What a difference 16 years makes :(

Hell, I guess I picked the wrong week to:
stop drinking alcohol
refrain from yelling insults at young kids
not trying to get a Thorazine prescription
randomly writing "Fuck Trump" on various items with orange spray paint

You've got your polarities reversed.

This is the week you're supposed to start drinking.

At this point, I figure nearly all polarities are negative.

Yeah, I've got that covered.

Weird that my initial thought when trump won was Lloyd Bridges lament in the "Airplane" movie. But I did leave out the "I guess I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue." Besides, I figure stu and archie and some others have likely decimated the glue supply.

Its made a lot of difference in me. Obama made all the shitheads lose their minds, just by wearing a tan suit. Now they're spouting all that nazi, NRA Jeezus shit like, "Your Body, MY choice!" I feel somewhat better as it becomes more evident that it was nowhere near the "mandate" they were convinced it was. He lost the popular vote again. But it is a very small, very cold comfort, indeed.
Having retired three years ago with retinal degeneration (not disability- they rejected that), I now face having my SS reduced 30% or more, if not stolen altogether. After working and paying FICA since I was 15. Same for the wife, who has already filed for her SS, starting in May. She, also, has been paying her part since high school.
And in other news, I have embraced a small dose of hypocrisy. I got my concealed carry permit, and, lately, carry my 9mm with me, everywhere I am legally allowed to carry it. I'm too goddam old to take too much abuse lying down.

I'm sorry for your troubles. Good luck.

Ftr, TRE45QN didn't lose the popular vote. His tally just dipped below 50%. He still beat Kamala by a whopping 1.6%. ;)

Favoring gun regulations and owning a gun are not mutually exclusive. Sorry you're in a place where you need to carry it all the time. Bad crime in the area?
