That's a funny way of spelling "go fuck themselves"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 hour ago

Not that I am against the article but this is nearly 3 weeks old. Is it news at this point?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

We need to ensure that we maintain the notion that an administration saying things like “suck it up” is never accepted as normal.

The memes are funny, yes- but the more this becomes a joke, the more we begin to allow for it because that’s “just what they do.”

That may be just what they do, but accepting it as commonplace doesn’t have to be just what we do.

Use THIS to speak your voice and don’t accept this administration’s attempts to dumb down our politics to memes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 20 minutes ago

It can be both. Let's flood them with memes.

I am so fucking glad this dipshit can not command the cult of MAGA they way Trump can.

Seriously he has the charisma of a burnt chicken nugget at the back of the oven.

That’s why the pope died.

JD Vance sucked his last will to live right from his body.

The D stands for Dementor.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Welp, time for him to suffer similarly. As a public employee, his salary should be $7.25/hr, and have $10 in his checking account.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, you guys have $10? /s

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Due to inflation, it's now only worth three fiddy.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

No wonder the pope had a stroke after talking to this guy

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 hours ago

I hope Pope willfully took an exit to talk to The Guy about this couchlover.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

the guy that killed the pope is funny

You know there was a time when an administration tried to woo their base

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 hours ago

I'll deal with it, but could you be a dear and come show me how, in person? And no need to bring any form of security, half the people on this street are former marines, specwar navy, an army Ranger, and about a dozen former national guard. They'll all be here to ensure security of the country.

Republicans and Trump Admin Will Garnish Struggling Borrowers' Wages as Student Loan Payments Resume

The Trump administration on Monday announced that it will resume involuntary collection measures against defaulted federal student loan recipients, including garnishing wages, tax refunds, and Social Security benefits and "other actions to help borrowers get back into repayment," as the U.S. Department of Education euphemistically said.

"Resuming collections protects taxpayers from shouldering the cost of federal student loans that borrowers willingly undertook to finance their postsecondary education," DOE said in a statement notifying the public that collections will resume May 5. "This initiative will be paired with a comprehensive communications and outreach campaign to ensure borrowers understand how to return to repayment or get out of default."

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 hours ago

Taxpayers wouldn’t have to shoulder that debt if it were simply canceled.

I know republicans would never dare make it easier on students to learn, but, this argument is bs.

[–] [email protected] 81 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

Has he actually explained a plan to even "cut our taxes" because if I recall every tax proposal that's come up raises the taxes on people living paycheck to paycheck.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

That's the plan dumby , duh

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago

Well yeah, liar is going to lie... but worth at least pointing out, he's claiming we'll make it up in tax savings... but then he's raising taxes on us.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 hours ago

The tariffs are going to pay for the tax cuts, duh.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

gotta pay for the tax cuts for the wealthy some how--it all can't come from cuts to essential social services, or by increasing the national debt, ya know.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It will be worth it when they fucking rebel. We are three missed meals away from revolution.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

three missed meals

I thought it was 9, but I guess with intermittent fasting, it could be the same time frame

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

This is America. This can mean 4000 calorie meals at the extreme end. So we require fewer meals to miss to reach the mean calorie count of most other countries which equal 9 meals.

Sorry, I guess I was thinking about cats.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

My cat would be sizing me up after missing breakfast.
