GI Joe and transformers? What is this, a crossover episode?

TIL that Fort Bragg isn't named after a Confederate general anymore. It's named after a private from WWII who's claim to fame is having the same last name as a Confederate general. in c/til@lemmy.world

I don't think anyone's taking this seriously.

Trump loves the poorly educated.

I suppose I should have said "no-one with a functioning brain."

They are the only local place I can get transformers, aside from Wal-Mart.

Online ordering will have to sustain me, but that's a lot harder to justify as "impulse purchase."

What is it that you're concerned about? Assume that I have no idea what either the new or old Mozilla privacy policy is, please. I tend to assume that all such are a pack of lies and everything is spying on me.

Trump won't buckle, this is true.

But there are plenty of other people around him that will. Sooner or later, either a real war will break out, or Trump will be removed, or nutered, or otherwise brought to heel by the Senate, or the military, or the oligarchs.

All the headlines, saying “can’t get them back” are misrepresenting the situation. Trump isn’t saying that he can’t get them back, he’s saying the judges can’t make him get them back.
