<Deep breath> Man, day like today you can hardly even smell the rotting corpses and toxic waste. Oh look honey! The ocean is burning purple again!

Trump also told the audience at his recent Nazi rally in North Carolina that he doesn’t know what ‘net zero emissions’ means, claiming that nobody knows. Also, if the water rises, Ben Shapiro’s wife could wade around in it and might finally have a WAP to show him.

It’s a bit redundant on the top of all the rest and I do absolutely figure that useless lying orange sleazeball telling you what the oil industry wants you to hear is for sure one fucking miserable painful route to dying burning drowning boiling or starving on an increasingly uninhabitable planet...

... but sure I don’t wanna see the megatonne weapons doing that either and you know it’s for dead fucking certain keeping the codes out of that unhinged delusional total fucking psycho’s clutches is also pretty damned crucial.

... anyone has to have those of those available yeah okay congratulations Kamala I know it ain’t gonna make you real happy but here you go damn.

A little bit like those scam artists hosting events speculating on empty land in Gaza after the genocide is complete. As if there aren't millions of tons of unexploded bombs, contamination, explosives hidden inside of tuna cans, cluster munitions easily mistaken for toys, corpses, oh and Palestinians still living.

Nuclear warming happens after the bomb explodes and we’re all vaporized by the heat and blast. This is followed by an eventual nuclear winter where any survivors left will be pretty chilly if the radiation poisoning doesn’t get them first.

Pretty sure Trump's 'nuclear warming' bluff has been called now that Ukraine has basically invaded Russia and all Vlad can do is say "move along, nothing to see here."

Well there's people that want his ethnic cleansing. And that's a very big part of the attraction to President Klan Robe.

Also it's kinda funny that all the "old" stories went away now that President Klan Robe is the only old one left. Funny, that.

And of course the MSM's Republican owners don't care; they'll have their compounds far above sea level while the rest of us deal with the nightmare of flooded coasts. It's very easy for them to make light...their paymasters and the Republican constituents laugh it off, using oil-backed propaganda as a justification.

It is grim but onward we fight!

There’s nuclear WINTER, and nuclear WAR but 🤷🏻‍♀️. When I ponder this, my husband asks why I’m trying to make sense out of nonsense. I guess that’s the equivalent of “that’s bullshit”.

Also now I’m hearing Lex say “Otisburg. Otisburg?” very pointedly. Thank you !

I've been trying to come up with a metaphor for the futility of trying to understand the stupidity of T***p's stream of consciousness statements, and I've failed so far. Ultimately, I think he does not care if he spouts nonsense. It's just a variation of the Gish Gallop technique, where the speaker throws out so many statements in a row that by the time you refute the first 5 with fact and reasoning, there are 10 more added on top and you never get to a conclusion.

He's simply trying to denigrate the notion of any reality other than the one that he provides, and which can change from moment to moment. It leaves him as the source of all truth, and it's irrelevant if it makes any sense.

Don't bother offering fact and reason in response. Simply say "That's bullshit", and move on. Hopefully, we are getting very close to him becoming irrelevant at last. The only need to point a camera in his direction will be to record his sentencing.

Have any of our crackerjack MSM “journalists” ever asked Donald to explain “nuclear warming”? No, nor will they ever ask him to explain any of his psychotic blatherings, because, as you note,

the “mainstream media constantly minimize his madness”, let alone call him out on it in person. That’s so they can host a panel of their “experts” immediately afterward to parse what he could possibly be saying, thus using up time in their mandated 24/7 news cycle. Yeah that’s right, CNN, everything he says appears to be a joke. He’s so deranged and dumb, whadda ya gonna do, huh? Let’s all laugh. Are we not entertained?

It pisses me off that they didn't even highlight the correctness of Biden and the lies of President Klan Robe. But image is everything. So I hope Harris and Walz fuck them over big time AND continue starving them of access and palace intrigue. So, so tired of them just giving this shambling liar every bit of affordance.

Ah, Clancy Brown, best Lex ever. Great column proving why we pay attention to superhero lore. That was the part we didn’t expect: Blofeld and Luthor getting praised on the WSJ editorial page

'Blissfully listening to Zooropa in 1993'. Who knew? I miss those days too.

Well if those waterfront homeowners can't find a buyer when the water rises, the taxpayer will foot the bill for their loss- as long as they can make thise flood insurance payments. Unfortunately the premiums keep going up, but we can rest knowing those with enough wealth to pay them will be made whole by the taxpayer. Too bad those poors won't.

Federal flood insurance needs to be turned into a buyout program. We'll pay out but now it's owned by the public. I grew up along the ocean and yes it's heart breaking but the current setup has to go.
