OH MY GOD. You saw the classic Simpsons steamed hams bit and your takeaway was that there definitely was aurora borealis completely localized in the kitchen. If anyone knows this guy personally, they are ripe to join Amway.

I haven’t changed my position at all. The fact you think I have gives more ammo to my theory that you can’t actually read. Get help.

Can you read? Are you actually capable of reading? Or is that too far past your cognitive abilities? Because I’m really starting to wonder. I was on Twitter when the spaces started. I was not trying to join it because I do not hate myself. But I had absolutely no issue with Twitter during the time that the world’s biggest losers were complaining that they couldn’t hear their Dear Leader. I did not claim that Twitter was working for everyone. I did not claim that everything was perfect for all. I simply said that I wasn’t experiencing an issue and the history of big Twitter spaces lead me to think it was more likely an infrastructure issue than a DDOS. Dear lord man. Find some self-respect.

“I see you broke every record in the book with uhh stho many millions of people. And tshat’s an honor. We view that as an honor. And then uhhh you do want shilencshing of shcertain voices”

Hey buddy. Take a minute to chill. Take a breather. Nobody is gonna hurt you here. It’s ok. You’re going to be ok. I said that I didn’t experience any issue with Twitter during the spaces event. I said that I was skeptical that the issues with the spaces event was due to a DDOS because they routinely have issues with big spaces events. You’re the one who is trying to pretend I said a bunch of things I clearly never said. I don’t know why you’re doing that, but I understand that listening to a very old man slurring his words might cause some cognitive dissonance for you. It’s ok though. If you log off of the internet for the night, everything will still be ok in the morning.

I’ve only recently come around on unions but I have to say, this is an excellent ad

Yikes! Captain Jump To Conclusions is mighty defensive tonight against anything that might impugn Dear Leader. I apologize if my refusal to lick boots offends you in any manner. Twitter has consistently struggled with big name Spaces events, especially since the staffing has been slashed. It may be a DDOS, or it may be the typical incompetence we’ve come to expect from similar past events. But given that Spaces seems to have issues with large events, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to think this was an internal infrastructure issue as opposed to some nefarious attack. PS: I don’t watch CNN or MSNBC. Just putting out some common sense observations based on Twitter’s past performance.

LOL. Amazing. Keep telling yourself this. Also, please tell everyone you know about the nefarious DDOS attack against Twitter to prevent Trump from talking about how hot Kamala Harris was on Time Magasheen.

Seems about right

Jesus you sound defensive. I said I didn’t have any issue with Twitter and I found it weird that I wouldn’t have an issue if there was a DDOS attack. Might be a good time to take a moment for some introspection on why you got so defensive there Maybe you’re just hoping to get on the cover of Time Magasheen

Trump: Kamala Harris is hot and looks like my wife Also, what’s with the lisp? Does he have issues with dentures?

Gotta tell you, I have things I’d rather be doing than listening to two lunatics yap at each other. Just found it weird that people were complaining about a DDOS attack against Twitter when it was working just fine for me. I get it. You just like the taste of the Kool-Aid.

Twitter seems to be working completely fine for me. Weird that a DDOS attack would not impact the site as a whole

I gotta tell you, I don’t know anybody on the left who is scared of Musk. He’s mostly a joke

You’d think that a company like Twitter would have been prepared for a DDOS attack* for this. Maybe firing everybody wasn’t the best move… *If it is actually a DDOS and not just crappy infrastructure

This is the sh!t that makes America the best country in the world.

Love this response. Life is all about learning. There’s so much out there we’re not normally exposed to without effort. As a boring middle class hetero white dude, one of the things I’ve actually liked about the whole DEI thing is the opportunity to learn about other people and cultures. At my old company, we had one of my Indian colleagues give a talk about the Hindu holiday of Holi. It was totally optional but he was a good guy so I joined. I learned a lot and thought it was pretty cool. People can overdo it, but it’s always nice to learn new things.

Has the GOP become the party of fragility?

Silver Bulletin 2024 presidential election forecast - 8/12

Basically a toss up

Seems good to me

Yeah, I don’t see why they need the Clintons, especially as separate speeches. I get that he’s a former president and sexual abuser, but the GOP already has one of those at the top of their ticket. IMO: kick off with Joe Biden to let him pass the torch, focus mainly on the younger crop of Dems; throw Obama in there somewhere day one or two; if you can get a GOPer like the mayor of Mesa that would be great. If you feel like you *have* to give the Clintons air time, let them do a joint address. The goal should be to use this as a pivot away from the old Dems. Of course, the optimal solution is just to let The Great Khan speak as much as possible

Back in the 70's, the party let the Birchers into the fold because, even though they were crazy nutjobs, they were motivated and could help increase the voter base. MAGA is just the modern version of the John Birch Society. They were let into the fold because the GOP leadership thought they could use them to their advantage but MAGA just rotted the entire party out from the core until there was nothing else left.

Cope harder.
