I mentioned this the day he did the press conference to announce the 10% worldwide tariffs.

The tariffs were originally sold under the guise of managing fentanyl trafficking by forcing new trade agreements to be crafted piecemeal with various nations instead of the large multinational agreements of yesteryear.

They were sold on Trump being such an incredible dealmaker and his constant refrain that countries were coming to him and begging him to make deals.

He literally blew up every deal that was in the works not because anyone else in the world did anything wrong, but because he is mad at his own Supreme Court rightfully telling him to pound sand. He is punishing every idiot who took a chance to work with him, not because they didn’t follow through on their agreements but because he is the biggest baby bitch on the fucking planet who cannot handle being told “no” whether it’s a whole country, a court, or a thirteen year old girl.

Master dealmaker my fucking ass. Any country that was in the process of making a deal with him already had a lot of evidence he would blow up his own deals at his convenience, but this should be the final nail in the coffin of anyone even trying to work with the US and expecting the US to be acting in good faith.

Wesley Dingus

He really lived up to his name! I can’t imagine voting for a mayor whose last name was Dingus anyway.

Reminds me of my friend and I discussing this open source printer that you build and maintain yourself.

EDIT: Oops forgot the link

Yeah as much as I prefer reading about things like this it is a bit silly to complain about it when it’s literally posted in a video-oriented community.

I dunno, it tracks to me. Someone sees Dude Where’s My Car in theaters in 2000 at the age of 16. In 2026 they’re 42 and have been working at an ad company for 15 years.

Also you often can’t view Twitter stuff like this without having an account and being logged in. (Thus the 403 Forbidden response)

At the very least they could use an xcancel link or something.

Yep. Should have just linked to this one, which works:

First mistake was using a Twitter (twimg) link.

and they likely won’t.

You mean the same Republican-dominated congress that has basically given him handjobs every time he breaks a fucking law and does something that is actually under the direction of congress? The same Republican-dominated congress that has essentially abdicated any responsibility to govern at all? I’m skeptical, but I hope you’re right.

What a fucking asshole

For real, this is another mask-off moment. He had played up the tariffs as a game to push other countries around, but clearly and literally the only reason he is doing this is because he’s pissed off at the Supreme Court. It has fuck-all to do with other countries because it’s the same rate, worldwide, with no room for negotiations. He’s supposed to be this great negotiator of trade deals with other countries, yet he’s blowing up every single potential trade deal with a flat 15% worldwide because he’s pissed off at people in his own government.

If people can’t tell that he doesn’t give a flying fuck about anything except pushing people around, doesn’t matter who or about what, they’re fucking idiots. He’s just a cruel fucking asshole, like you said.

two more to go, now.

In the podcast/television show Comedy Bang! Bang! there is a running joke that host Scott Aukerman is always misnamed. The names are things like Yacht Rockerman, Hot Saucerman, Shock Jockerman, Stop Clockerman, Shop Talkerman, Flip Flopperman, and so on. They generally rhyme with “Scott Aukerman.”

Snot Flickerman is definitely inspired by the Aukerman nicknames, although it doesn’t perfectly fit since Flickerman doesn’t rhyme with Aukerman. However, in my own headcanon, Snot Flickerman is an animated, audacious television news anchor voiced by Tom Kenny.

I hope this illuminates my stupid fucking username.

I’m not your pal, friend!

I’m not your buddy, guy!

They must, a non-zero number of them voted for a despot to destroy the country three times.

We are so boned. These shitweasels still can’t admit that the TSA is nothing but security theater twenty fucking years later or that maybe the DHS as a whole was a mistake.

Get fucked with your “reform.”

loose /= lose

Sorry this one had bothered me for years now and it just seems to get worse over time.

Try finding it without the text document on it… bet you can’t… I’ve fucking tried.
