I think Vance’s response depends greatly on if he takes direction from his handlers in Heritage Foundation or if he gains an ego and believes he’s the new cult leader. They learned their lesson with Pence who, with the obligatory “fuck Mike Pence”, still wasn’t invested enough to commit treason.

Vance just doesn’t have the twisted charisma Trump has to be the cult guy. Heritage knows it, but they knew he had a shelf-life and only needed to get in and secure their position. The Third Reich didn’t survive Hitler but he wouldn’t let go (and they couldn’t get rid of him) until it was too late. The Soviet Union survived the death of Stalin because nobody after him tried to recreate his larger than life image, they maintained the control that was established under his reign.

If Vance does what he’s told he doesn’t need to be Trump, and if the regime continues to disregard democracy, the courts, and even declining public opinion among conservatives that rode the wave but are now leopard fodder, they don’t need another Trump, just an institution to defend. These fuckers are embedded and will be difficult to remove.

Never met Ozzy, but had a shot with Lemmy after a set by his side project Hedcat. For a god he was humble and a chill dude to shoot the shit with. No fucking clue who the other dude in 9 is but hopefully he like Jack Daniel’s.

Suicideel is my spirit animal.

“Fuck you, I’m taking you with me!”

I’m glad I got to see them live but unfortunately they just weren’t great that night, played faster than they should have and it was kind of a mess. Also didn’t help that they were opening for Priest and, well, you ain’t going to upstage them for stage presence and virtuosity. Still a wild show and a killer pit.

Why stop at 15 months? What about if mom aborts her 455 month old man-child Ted Brogan?

2 dogs, 2 cats, currently four chicks in a brooder in the back room, sage, palo santo, nag champa, paint. TBF, nobody knows because I hate having company but I assume that no matter how much I clean nor how often I open the windows it has a distinct smell.

Yeah, it never took much. Take a video of a factory farm abusing their animals? Fucking radical leftist Antifa-extreme menace to society level terrorist.

At first glance my mind always replaces the r with a c and I think we’re talking about the 1998 classic SLC Punk.

Defense isn’t about helping people escape consequences, it’s about making sure they receive a fair trial and the consequences are appropriate for their crime. Even with this system there are still wrongful convictions and police/prosecutorial misconduct.

Many years ago we had a deadly DUI crash that the local news went apeshit over because the story was easy to hype. Drunk driver kills a young mom, dad, and their 3yo daughter. It was covered non-stop, until it came out during the trial mom and dad were high as kites on meth and pulled out in front of the drunk driver when they should have waited for him to cross the intersection. Dude still got convicted, he was driving drunk and killed three people, but his sentence reflected the dad’s impaired driving and what that contributed. Also, as soon as the news couldn’t sob story their coverage they dropped it, barely a blip when the verdict came out.

On the bright side, robot dogs don’t die when the pig they’re assigned to leaves them in a hot car. Also, nobody cares if a robot dog gets shot/stabbed/kicked.

He opposed controlling one’s aim. Just spray randomly in front of you and you can take down an entire army without getting hit. Dirt bikes with rocket launchers also help.

Demographics mostly. Blue city in a red state. The downtown clubs rarely had hecklers, gigs in the outlying towns were more likely to draw ire for the material. How people handle their drunkenness is also part of it. People who are assholes sober seem to feel more entitled to blast their opinion while drunk, and not surprisingly I found a lot more of them in the suburbs.

“He’s an asshole sir.“

Mirror universe Odo blew up Alderaan.

Found the skunk.

Vasectomies and tubal ligation are the ultimate power move in the goth community.

Freed from the responsibility of hiding Anakin’s son from the galaxy, Owen and Beru are able to pursue their dream of leaving Tatooine and move to Alderaan to open a bed and breakfast. Sadly, it doesn’t end well.

Yeah. I think one of the hardest things I’ve discovered, at least where I live, is that a lot of folks who would also work in fields where they can’t not show up. My mom’s a hospice nurse, I work in animal care. She can’t not attend to her patients and I’m not going to neglect the dogs in my care for a day. We could take the day off symbolically, show solidarity, but the work won’t stop, it’d just be one of our “don’t care” coworkers doing it. Our other struggle has been that, in a relatively union free state, most of the union folks are caught in that “benefits for me, fuck you, go Trump” mentality. Not a blanket accusation of union workers, just a lot of our locals are ladder-pullers.

When the villains make their version they summon Captain Meth.
