  What with major airlines canceling some flights at the last minute and delaying others so it's impossible to catch a connecting flight, I guess their long-term strategy is to broom out their middle-class customers and cater exclusively to the ultra-wealthy. What they haven't considered is that their new class of passenger expects an elite level of customer service. Good luck, Sky High Airlines

  @georgetakei@universeodon.com "The ballroom." That's the code phrase for it. At least until it's finished and he moves in, then he'll switch to calling it what it always was intended to be: "the presidential palace."

  I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked others to help us find a job. So many people are out of work right now that no one can offer help, and it wasn't realistic to ask. We'll find work on our own, and if that fails, there's another plan.

  Another round of volk, err, folks screaming "OWN THE LIBS!!!!1!!!" Has anyone explained to these quarter-wits ("halfwits" seems far too generous a measure) that the party to which the POTUS and most of the rest of 'em claim to belong began with some pretty sharp ideas regarding *the ownership of other people*?

  @georgetakei@universeodon.com Imagine a university where you couldn't talk about the lives or contributions of any Republican people, because after all, they could have CHOSEN to be Democrats. Where "being conservative is a choice... and it's the wrong choice." Where there's a strict don't-say-GOP policy.

  I will never be able to show enough disdain and disgust toward the people who are willing to give up everything good about the country they CLAIM to love, just to hurt the people they hate. #MAGA #suck-trumps-mushroom-dick

  I'm not going to say much about this, other than to remind everyone that the POTUS has no physical courage. This is a man who notoriously cannot stand the sight of blood and who got multiple deferments to avoid military service. If he had been in actual danger, the stench of his breached trousers would have filled that room.

  @georgetakei@universeodon.com Even Nixon had the presence of mind to feel shame and to resign. The level of stupidity across this entire administration is breathtaking.

  For some reason *ehem* I keep thinking of the most effective curse I could place on Donald Trump. I thought of one today that might just be the one I settle on: May you be reincarnated as your daughter Ivanka. And may you have ALL the same experiences she received from you as her father. I'd be shocked if he didn't break out in a cold sweat over that one.

  You know the MAGAs saying "the Trump as AI slop Jesus image was a bridge too far" would have NOTHING to say about it if their gas and groceries were cheap right now.

  American citizens and other residents: we make all the tax money. So why aren't we forcing our freeloader government to bootstrap itself out of this crisis?

  Trump 1.0 was creepy/evil enough, with children being separated from their parents and innocent folks being thrown into American gulags, but 2.0 has been so bizarre and twisted that if Trump and RFK Jr. were to bite the final spicy McNuggets tomorrow and the coroner reported they were both giant cockroaches wearing ill-fitting human skins, I think we'd shrug and say, "yeah, that tracks"

  Out of the dishes endlessly washing, Out of the parakeet’s throat, the cage-floor detritus, Out of the spring-cleaning midnight, Over the sterile counters and the veggie peels beyond, where the child leaving his bed unmade wander’d alone, bareheaded, barefoot, Down from the shower-tub combo, Up from the mystic play of Twister twining and twisting as if they were alive, Out from the patches of briers and blackberries, From the memories of the shrubs that prickled me, From your memories sad sister...

  "But JD #Vance would be worse!" No. The reason everyone lets That Thing get away with acting like a monarch and ripping up the Constitution is fear of his personality cult. The people responsible for J6. The ones who have threatened to kill, and sometimes have killed, people who oppose him. The folks who think he's better than Jesus. JD Vance is not going to lead that cult of personality when Trump is gone, because Vance doesn't HAVE a personality. He doesn't stand for a...

  I've come to the conclusion that people who describe Trump as playing multi-dimensional chess are the same people who say "God works in mysterious ways" when something awful happens that a loving God obviously should have prevented. (Like a second Trump presidency.) It is a way of acknowledging that they don't understand how anything complex works and they are not interested in finding out, but there just HAS to be a grander plan.

  Looks like #PamBondi will have plenty of free time ahead to read that copy of "The Moral Compass." You know, because she doesn't have one of her own. #Bondi was yet another person in the presidential orbit who thought she could use Trump, aka the One Ring of Stupid, for her own ends. Even though exactly zero people have had success trying to use Trump for good, or even self-serving purposes. Each one has been almost as egotistical as Trump is, thinking "I&...

  Christians: Jesus has risen! Skeptics: Cool. Where is he? Christians: He ascended into heaven! Skeptics: That sounds like death with extra steps. Christians: He will return! Skeptics: What, like James Bond? Christians: No, he said he would come quickly! Skeptics: First, that's not something I would brag about and second, it's been over 2,000 years. Maybe have your deified cult leader define "quickly" next time?
