also to be filed under "is it just stupid or is it cruel":
Trump admin. cuts funding for program that tracked Ukrainian children abducted by Russia. fuck those kidnapped children and their grieving parents, amirite? we've got an aluminum deal to sign! there was some buzz that they had gone so far as to delete all the information gathered to date, but have since made statements saying that the data still exists (probably in a database that no one can access because everyone managing it was fired…)
but seriously, y'all should recognize that the Admin is focusing on the really important shit that will turn all you whiners into winners:
DOJ creating path for people with criminal convictions to again own guns. FUCK YEAH!!!111

Huh? They will love it. They love anything Trump does. He could shit on their face and they would eat it up.
I thought we all knew this by now? It’s a cult. You know like those cults were the leader rapes his followers and they stay in the cult?

I dunno, man…I've been to several. Maybe not womens march level but stuff is happening pretty much weekly. I think the difference is the stuff I've seen had been specific…protesting ICE raids or Mahmoud Khalil's unlawful detention or hospitals suspending trans healthcare or DOGE's bullshit at specific agencies.

i could absolutely see someone whipping trump up into a frenzy over this. if he can demand that the gulf of mexico be renamed, why not demand that the order of the english alphabet be changed??

it's embarrassing how long it took me to figure this out. at first i thought "why? the US either wouldn't have to change its name since United States of America would still work; or: any name change wouldn't affect its place in the list: United States of America, Canada, Greenland and Panama (USACGP!), or United States of the Americas, United States of America and Annexed Territories, or…" then it dawned on me. duh.
