I have two Gorey sweats with cats and books… because that’s how I am…
What I’m wearing now (the actual one I’m wearing is faded…)
So cute!
“The likes of Musk and Ramaswamy, OTOH, are extremist lunatics who would happily burn everything else to the ground”
Possibly—but I tend to believe stupidity is a far more powerful force with businessmen.
They don’t understand what would happen until too late.
They aren’t the brains—they HIRE brains and then take credit.
Don’t assume the Republicans won’t make it a position with real consequences.
Musk joking about buying Twitter is how he ended up buying something he didn’t really want to buy.
Now he’s joking about buying MSNBC.
“Musk’s exchange with Trump Jr. is similar to one he had with a Twitter user in 2017 after he was encouraged to purchase the social media platform. ”

Nancy Mace: “It is offensive that a Negro in a skirt thinks that she’s my equal,” she said on the right-wing channel Newsmax. “Like this Negro’s challenges are the same as mine! They’re not! And this Negro forcing her genitals into women’s restrooms, into dressing rooms, into locker rooms. It’s sick, it’s twisted.”
Oh… sorry, she said trans people.
Same diff. I grew up in the 60’s. Funny how it all sounds the same
“In fact, according to the EPA, electric cars have a smaller carbon footprint than gas-powered cars even when accounting for the energy used to charge EVs. The EPA also underscored that electric vehicles are far more energy efficient than ICE cars.”
ICE is just nasty. Single source emissions (power plants) are easier to control than multi-source (cars). I learned a lot of this when we were fighting a mine (spoiler: we lost).

He is forming a Federal mafia.
“Musk shared on X a past TV interview with Milton Friedman in which the economist recommended the elimination of a number of federal agencies, including the departments of education, commerce, agriculture and housing and urban development. “Milton Friedman was the best,” Musk said in apparent agreement.
The only way you can balance the debt by firing fed employees is if they were being paid $17 million each.
They are not.
This is dumb.
NOW they do it.
“Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump’s pick to lead the intelligence community, was briefly placed on a Transportation Security Administration list that prompts additional security screening before flights after her overseas travel patterns and foreign connections triggered a government algorithm earlier this year, three sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
Gabbard was quickly removed from the list, a little-known program called “Quiet Skies,”

I’m noticing a trend…
#SexualAssault69 has joined the chat.
“ Last month, a group of five former “ring boys” named the McMahons in a sex abuse lawsuit along with World Wrestling Entertainment and its parent company, TKO Group. The John Does alleged that from the 1970s to the 1990s, former WWE announcer Melvin Phillips Jr. groomed and sexually assaulted them and other minors, without any consequences from his employer”

I think their narrative starts and ends with the idea that it’s all women’s fault so it’s ok if they suffer in the name of religion. Eve, the apple, the garden. They forgive men their ‘appetities’ but not women their biology.
I’m calling Musk and Ramaswamy’s working group Two Dumb Fat Bastards (TDFB). It doesn’t roll off the tongue like “DOGE”—but it’s much more descriptive how stupid their plan is.
Neither knows how government works, what is inefficient nor has explained what criteria they will use.
In other words, they will be the deciders, truth be damned, and mass fire people for no reason other than they “think” the department is inefficient.
Musk has a history of firing people for no reason.
It’s worse than that—it’s a fundamental misunderstanding of HOW THINGS WORK. Musk has a degree in economics which he MUST have paid someone to take the tests because quite literally the idea of secondary and tertiary jobs is pretty damn fundamental.
As an example, EVERY Congressperson wants a military base because it generates MORE JOBS than just the base. Lose the base, those jobs disappear. And people can’t buy stuff. Which affects the local economy.
It’s just dumb.
I may have to go edit that bullshit.
DOGE: “And a week and a half later, it’s become abundantly clear that the analogy is less about the smartest people in the world coming together to build something that will fundamentally alter life as we know it than it is about two guys indiscriminately dropping a bomb on America without actually thinking through the consequences.”
Two fundamentally stupid men want to destroy our country.
Who you going to believe? Economists are techbros?
What did they want to keep secret? The names? No. The deaths? No.
They wanted to keep secret that rhe deaths were ruled preventable.
And the reason was that the women COULD NOT ACCESS health services that would have saved their laws.
In other words, abortion.
Because politicians kill women, not doctors.
