[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Total jersh energy.

You have no idea how much I hate that company. @Suburban Bastard can chime in, too. We will both chant holding hands in a circle with flower crowns on, dancing around the burning remains of Moderna in glee. Fuck that company, seriously. I can think of something nice to say about Pfizer (which produces a life-saving drug for hemophiliacs), I can think of something nice to say about AstraZeneca (which produces a life-saving drug for lung cancer), and I can go on for a lot of biotech/biopharma companies that do fucked up shit but at least move the needle on helping the world in some way. Moderna is pure, unadulterated evil and I hope they all burn in fucking hell.

The removal of Auto stop/start will do more for goodwill than any peace deal. What a terrible thing I always disable. Basically any car after 2018 I will not buy because it has too much gay in it. Now let 6 and 8 cylinders be allowed again, so many fucking SUVs that weigh so much due to regulations are now running turbo 4 cylinders and that's just not viable.

BRING BACK AM RADIO! BRING BACK DOORS YOU CAN ACTUALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK! BRING BACK CD PLAYERS! BRING BACK ANALOG RADIOS! DO IT, TRUMP!

BURN IN HELL, FUTURIST AUTO DESIGNER FUCKBAGS!

Meanwhile, no one is above the law:

This isn’t going to matter if California is allowed to preempt the EPA.

It's not a psyop, the infiltration goes deep. We just found out that Bondi is a registered agent for Qatar.

Qatar has a ton of money to throw around and they've infiltrated everything from universities to real estate to the US govt.

I agree, time to get rid of foreign influence out the American government now!

"People die when they can afford medicine" is an astounding take that only the most brain damaged can understand.

I'm sure the 100% of all scientists that develop life saving drugs do so only because they want money explicitly from America and now that Americans pay less for them they will all quit out of protest

 

[Jace on ice]

I think trump wants to be king for reals.

I think I might actually be ok with that at this point. Biden, Obama, and Bush Jr were democratically elected and nearby brought the country to it's knees.

I was on r/news yesterday and redditors are unironically citing the free market and saying it's a bad move, some of these guys have hammer and sickle pfps.

The word NPC almost doesn't go far enough to describe these people and how they act.

Go with "hylic" if you're feeling highbrow.

As Labour now runs the government, what this incident shows that if they have to choose between more immigration and anything else, literally anything else at all, they will not only choose more immigration, but it won't have real electoral consequences, because so will the Tories.

MPs' despair at voters' verdict on government

Labour had a terrible night when many of the county council seats up for grabs in Thursday's English local elections were last contested in 2021.

So far, today's results are even worse.

Labour should have been within shouting distance of regaining control of Durham -but their vote tumbled.

Before the result was announced, a former Labour MP texted to say - in colourful language – just how grim the political landscape was in the North East.

And where voters were determined to oust the Conservatives in Staffordshire, they turned to Reform UK not Labour to do so.

PM promises tougher visa rules to fix 'broken' migration system
New proposals will lead to significant immigration cut, vows PM

I'm not going to fault you or anyone here for not being familiar with the UK political situation, but people are turning away from both Labour and Tories, and we had our first demonstrable proof of that in the recent council elections. Labour are attempting to win back their fleeing base through implementing new immigration reforms (blaming the massive numbers on the Tories, go figure) but it'll hopefully not win them any support. We're going to be alright for the most part, as will France and even Germany. We'll only start seeing change here closer to the end of the decade though, so we've got a bit to wait yet.

Edit: Replaced all links with archives of articles.

This shit threw me for a loop the first time it happened in my friend's car. 'Did your car just die?' Completely vindicated my decision to fix my own cars and not buy anything with a CVT. So much useless shit in these new cars - pointless sensors that constantly need to replaced (some of which are a real bitch to get to), unnecessary electronics, no analog gauges. What fucking moron thought it was a good idea to kill the engine at every intersection? How long do people spend idling at red lights to make that worthwhile? It's ridiculous.

You’re at the Biden 2020 stage. It has to be a little bad before it can get better.

Looks like Trump has read up to the Egghead Island arc and will be giving America a Frontier Dome, this is my nakama:

That was the first place I went after I heard the news, Reddit in general is really ass blasted by this.

How is reddit upset that he is doing what their hero Bernie keeps telling America to do.

"We called you racist that means you have to stop and change your behavior based on what we want you to do" and all that.

The viral interview from Pierce Morgan from last week exemplifies this. Pierce and Mark Lamont Hill could not deal with someone saying "yes, im racist. What next?" They both thought racist was a magic word to get someone to shut up and shut down and when it did not happen they didn't know what to do next.

"Trump bad." These people have lost it.

I find it funny that he's saying this when last week he gave tax exemption status to pajeet visa workers for the first three years.

So trump announced big changes to drug prices which is good, I wonder how the libertarians will react to it.
