What?

Agreed, those people are the best. But also, that's a bit of a nightmare scenario, because now you have to decide if you're going to risk saying something from five minutes ago, or decline the kindness and feel bad for rejecting the gesture.

The sun will likely set today.

TLDW: The moisture sensor might be on the right side of the microwave, and the bag was pointing left when the steam was released.

But that was definitely worth a watch.

Awkwardly attempt to join the conversation, only to be talked over mid-sentence by someone else, and so you wait for another lull. Attempt to start again, only to be interrupted again by someone else. Watch helplessly as the subject of the conversation drifts far from the point you were going to make. Minutes pass, and everyone is glad to be talking about something else. You let go of the moment, and resign yourself to remain quiet. Then someone says to you, "Oh, what were you going to say?"

Sure, probably. But that's what happens when you elect leopards and have faces.

The point is to inspire fear and demand unwaivering loyalty. A little random violence against your own people helps tighten the inner circle around the leader, hoping for safety. Anyone outside the circle is surely doomed, and only the most loyal are surely protected. The leader is fickle and irascible, so be on your toes and never risk his ire.

That's excellent news.

They're only going to raid employers that didn't contribute to the campaign. It's extortion.

Reminder that Pennsylvania was one of the states where Russian terrorists called in bomb threats to shut down polling sites in heavily democrat areas to help Republicans win.

Ok, but that doesn't really narrow it down. Who should we be focused on?

You can't be serious. This is some sort of elaborate counter-revolutionary psyop to make progressives seem like ineffectual dipshits, right? Nobody is this far up their own ass. I didn't hear you out? What in the entire fuck are you talking about? Answer a question or shut up.

That's why the Occupy Wall Street movement fizzled out. That, and some good ol' fascism.
