Many of us aren’t surprised at all. This outcome was obvious to us from a mile away.

everyone around me treated me like a weird freak for staring off at like a wall or out the window or something else

WTF? Almost everyone does this! Sounds like you grew up with assholes who were looking for any excuse to mock and berate you. In which case, I’m sorry.

If you were frequently getting lost in your thoughts and not responding to them when they’d try to get your attention then maybe I could see some light teasing.

One thing I would add, not because it’s wrong to do this but because it might lead to people thinking it odd: if you are staring out of the same window or at the same wall for more than a few minutes, maybe switch your gaze to something else (a different wall or window or whatever). That way it doesn’t draw as much attention and it’s makes you look like you are more seated of your surroundings.

Might have something to do with Ireland repeatedly protesting what Israel is doing in Gaza and the West Bank. And we all know who is pulling the strings on Trump (aside from Putin).

Netanyahu: “Ireland is being mean to us! Do something!”

Trump: incomprehensible AI slop exhibiting hostility towards Ireland

Or they’re twisting themselves in mental knots, while living deep in denial.

Yup. Very soon the magical flying pigs that fart rainbows will swoop down and deliver them to the true believers! Any day now!

Did they rename him ‘Mask The Pain Marco’?

She has that boomer mentality, so I know what you mean. But she was born in 1943, so she’s technically not a boomer. She’s in the silent generation. That makes it even worse!

Eighty-fucking-two years old and writing nasty letters to little kids who bring up very reasonable requests! The old ghoul should be sitting in front of a TV watching soap operas and playing mahjong or whatever, not shuffling around in Congress ‘representing’ people.

I’m not sure how practical that is (seems like it would be more complicated than that). But if something like that could be done it would be great.

Conservatives want to try starving vulnerable Californians? Without our revenue dozens of red states will start starving. Would be funny seeing this administration shoot itself in the foot yet again.

In other news: water is wet!

Every accusation is an admission.

Obama is living rent-free in that addled brain.

Oh you’re right. So they are using the fraud/theft to punish him for his pro-vax opinions.

I’m expecting the current administration to intervene and a) frame him as a hero, b) exonerate him of the theft charges, and c) offer him a paid position in the administration.

Edit: Nevermind, I read that wrong. He’s pro-vax.

Hey, maybe he’s finally found a use for Eric!

He’s looking for any excuse to get in there so he can walk out with some of the gold.

Fuck knows what he’ll do with it, given his obsession with that precious metal. Shave bits off and put it on his hamberders; melt it and create a gold crown with built-in toupee; create yet another fucking statue to himself or another gold toilet to shit in; store it in his Mar A Lago bathroom like it’s some sort of classified info; use it for his stupid ball room; jizz all over it.

Seeing how incohrrent and fractured humanity is, we’d meet them with a jumbled mix of:

• Rabid xenophobia
• Aggressively trying to convert them to a dozen of our different religions
• Forming multiple cults worshipping them as gods
• Creating a shit load of really weird rule 34 AI-generated porn focused on them
• Dismissing their existence as some sort of a deep fake conspiracy
• Trying to sell them some worthless shit for a massive profit
• Trying to sell them fellow humans as slaves
• Trying to steal their technology to conquer the galaxy
• Flooding then with brainrot memes for the lolz
• Trying to destroy them with conventional weapons

And they would see all this and either destroy us in disgust or get the hell out of the solar system ASAP and cordon it off with hazard signs.

Yes, very good question.

It was kind of interesting (in a horrible way) watching him gradually unravel in his response, and get himself so worked up that he started adding nonsensical context and ridiculous biases to the original question, which just got him all riled up even more. He basically descended into a feedback loop of hysteria.

Mentally he is very unwell.
