Because you can't fix stupid.
Brexit is still delivering all the "I told you so"s. It's less fun than it sounds.
Yeah, people keep saying "This time they'll see!" But, aside from the occasional "leopards ate my face" moment, the same people keep lining up for more of the same.
And much of the consequences are sloughed off on the people who are fighting hardest against it.
They're fucking around, and we end up finding out.
Still pretty fun not being in the UK. Though I do feel bad for everyone not having voted for this shit.
It's been nearly 10 years and we're still getting fucked by it.
God damn has it been that long?
Well it depends on if you count from when we voted for it or when we actually did it.
México too, we go with «Disfruten lo votado», bitches get mad about it
What does it mean and whats the context? Actually curious as an ignorant non spanish speaking EU person.
No, it's not going to be "I told you so."
Conservatives will still blame Biden and dems for all the problems.
Also, there's a lot of people that will say, "don't be mean to them, that never changes their mind!" "talk to them, be empathetic"
Man, anyone suffering after voting for Trump deserves a big "fuck you".
Don't forget the "I wish dems did better!". You and me. Both but... Buckle up.
Yup, they still deflect to Hillary's emails and shit when you call out new cabinet positions. If we could harness their mental gymnastics into physical energy we'd solve the climate crisis.
Over Christmas my mom showed me her new "Lock Her Up!" shirt. It's been almost 10 years since Clinton has been relevant, move on.
We told you the government doesn’t work! Just look how the government we elected doesn’t work.
That's Conservative Playbook 101. Take something working well, intentionally break it, complain that it's broken and needs to be privatized, rinse and repeat.
What is the US Postal Service?
Right, there's no satisfaction in pointing out the results of a conservative power grab. Their narcissism makes them immune to introspection or self-awareness.
It's the deeeeeep state!
"You fuckers asked for this so either shut up or move"
Going to be the only thing keeping me going
I'm buying a bunch of "I did that!" Trump stickers to slap on empty grocery shelves. That's gonna be fun.
Yep those things need to be EVERYWHERE after they had those dumbass Biden ones, and the best part is that this time they'll actually be correct
Bold of you to think it will end in 4 years.
I'm saying. Like are we even going to have an election in 4 years? The dude violates every Norm, every tradition.
The small part of my brain that is conspiratorial be like, he's not moving the inauguration inside because of the weather or any threat, it's for the optics, It's for watering down the ceremony of the transfer of power, because he doesn't intend to have another one.
2016: "it's no like roe is going away! People are over reacting!" 2024: "...."
Climate change wasn’t real enough for half the country, so now everyone has to suffer.
$20 eggs is merely part of the 29D chess move that will eventually make eggs free!
Just keep waiting.
Starting with a ceasefire on his inauguration day...
….that Biden proposed and negotiated. Also he hasn’t been inaugurated yet lol.
Just like when George left the production team of the HBO series.
They will be extra shit years, but good years weren't on the ballot.
Our economy would have to undergo fundamental change to reign in greed and reckless metastasis for that.
(yes I voted for regular shit years out of harm reduction)
