Aneristic Illusions / The Big Beautiful 2025 US Gove...
Last post by Abbot Mythos - October 06, 2025, 05:32:29 PMWhat I find peculiar about this particular government shutdown is how little coverage it's received in the news media to date. Perhaps my perception of the situation is biased, or flawed, but I don't think so.
In any case, I found this article be be of interest: Opinion | This key group will end the government shutdown
As per author Robert Reich:
"I don't have a crystal ball, but I have a good idea how this shutdown ends. Trump and Republicans will cave (he won't admit he's caving, of course, but he will cave).
Here's why: Air traffic controllers.
Like other federal workers, the controllers aren't being paid now (they'll get back-pay when the shutdown ends). But unlike most other federal workers, their workloads and stress loads have been soaring."
And so, we shall have to wait and see.

"Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) demanded that Democrats reopen the federal government that he and his party control."
So, even more proof we're living in the POSOTUS's MAGAt 'Merica.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: Political Video Clips
Last post by Abbot Mythos - October 05, 2025, 04:11:12 PMThis doesn't meet the precise definition of a video clip, but it's more than political enough. And, if that's not enough, It's Borderline NSFW:
David Peel - Up Against The Wall (1968)
This isn't the version I remember being sung in University City, Philadelphia, back in '68, as that one had better lyrics. But, from the "Comments" written under this version, it appears to be the original. Still, I'm not surprised WMMR 93.3 FM, "the cool kids radio station," didn't give either version any airtime.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Resistance 2.0!
Last post by Abbot Mythos - October 04, 2025, 07:05:33 PMThe Resistance 2.0 has a resilient, artistic cell currently operating under codename "The Secret Handshake:"
Statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands returns to the National Mall
"A statue featuring President Donald Trump alongside convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has reappeared in front of the Capitol after it was removed last week."
Retrieving their damaged work of art from the nefarious clutches of the National Park Service, and redisplaying it on the National Mall is an impressive feat of tradecraft. Bravo!

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Republicult™ On Parade
Last post by Abbot Mythos - October 04, 2025, 03:30:11 PMSome cult propagandists just aren't getting the attention, and, of course, the money they crave these days. But, I suppose that's to be expected. With so many turds floating around in the Turd Reich, some have to end up far from the center of the cesspool.
Alex Jones: Trump Admin Covering Up Charlie Kirk Murder
In any case, I'm fine with the turds themselves publicly criticizing the Turd Reich.

Techmology and Scientism / Re: The Tech Forum
Last post by Abbot Mythos - October 04, 2025, 04:18:01 AMIs violent AI-human conflict inevitable?
Yes.
And, the first violent AI-human conflict will happen long before Skynet decides to take over the world. If not earlier, it will definitely happen when those smug Silicon Valley Oligarchs decide they're rich and powerful enough to replace all of the over the road truck drivers with self-driving 18 wheelers. Why, the country and western songs written about it alone will become as legendary as the heroes of the conflict themselves. It's even possible that Sylvester Stallone will live long enough to finally earn redemption for his portrayal of an over the road truck driver in that old arm wrestling movie.
Yes.

But then he started pushing his "Vax-Scene" which I originally thought was a mock.
BUT he was triple-dosed with the Clot-Shot. So obviously he was supporting it...in a "fun" way.
Supporting a fake vaccine that kills humans = ++ungood
I hereby revoke his status within Discordia.
Hail Eris...
Oh joy. Looks like someone from the "Freethinkers" guild managed to stay in the store past closing.
