"Here is a lesson in creative writing. First rule: Do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing. All they do is show you've been to college."

This guy is cool as shit
That's not his views... that's from an essay where he's parodying the mainstream ultrasimplification of political alignment.

You left out some language that I think clears up his ironic tone:
If you want to take my guns away from me, and you’re all for murdering fetuses, and love it when homosexuals marry each other, and want to give them kitchen appliances at their showers, and you’re for the poor, you’re a liberal.
If you are against those perversions and for the rich, you’re a conservative.
What could be simpler?
Totally changes it, doesn't it?

The office of the presidency should be abolished
No. I feel like I'm stumbling in a desert.
where am I right now?
Fuck you. You are brainwashed by a stupid cult. Donald Trump is a weak loser conman and you are inherently worse than that for falling for Q nonsense. You don't even know who was president in 2020.
IT'S SO BAD
I like to knock on hard-boiled eggs to break them. Seems more polite.
I mean, yeah. You never make a glue glove?

I've read 12 of Vonnegut's books. He is fundamentally a social progressive, but there are also some moments in some 70s novels (particularly Breakfast of Champions) that I find homophobic. He also has a habit of making women either passive pleasers or full nutso.
But he also explicitly and repeatedly pushes kindness, egalitarian social justice, and willingness to change.
I highly highly recommend every human read Mother Night.

Every few years I download a windows 98 emulator and install my copy of the 90s Blade Runner game, and see if I can replay it. But it always crashes at the same point early on (using the "enhance!" thingy) and is unplayable. When I search it up there's all kinds of posts of people stuck at the same point and somehow nobody has been able to find a way to fix it.
It's too bad, that game was a lot of fun. The branching plot and randomization of who turns out to be a replicant made each playthrough unique.
Okay this is weird. This post was about a new Blade Runner game when I started typing it but it turned into someone asking about grindy games for his wife? Is Lemmy like hogwarts staircases?
Maybe this time they can put in some GOD DAMN TOM BOMBADIL
Is Sync going too? I've never actually used reddit's official app
Any fantasy of mine about deconstructing the executive branch also includes us already overturning CU and mandating regular voting method review and/or banning FPTP so that the 2-party system collapses. Also expanding the House and requiring automatic voter registration.

I am angry at the very notion that a tamale could be a noodle.
Two-limbed executive: Head of Government "The President" who is elected by popular vote and has clerical powers similar to Germany's president, and Head of State + Commander in Chief "Prime Congressman" who is nominated by the house and approved by the senate.

You can kiss my ass you stupid motherfucker. Your troll tactic is weak and pathetic. By responding to something that bares no resemblance to anything I said you are attempting to avoid playing defense like a cowardly weakling. Boring and tired alt-right playbook 101. Yet you are so stupid and weak you don't realize that this isn't even a debate.... it can't be a debate because you've already lost: You got sucked into a stupid person authoritarian cult. YOU LOSE.
And yes I mean literal cult, literal medical clinically diagnosable cult. Q is LARP, a cult within a cult. If you think Trump is honest you are at least in the outer cult. It's really that simple. If you whatabout to something I didn't say instead of admitting that Trump is a pathological liar conman who is now fully embracing Nazi rhetoric on his journey to authoritarian dictatorship, then you are either fully brainwashed in or you're an evil fascist fucker who is pretending to have fallen for it. Either way you MAGA disgust me. Schooling has failed you. You could have learned some fucking media literacy. or a tiny ounce of critical literacy. Either would have told you what we all in the majority see so plainly. You are in a cult.
I have no interest in waking you up because if I did this would be the absolute worst way to go about it. But I don't care, because you weak losers are so pathetic I no longer want you to wake up. Trump is going to prison and you are going to cry. I won't get the pleasure of you crying if you wake up first.
That is a fake narrative invented by right wingers.
ahahaha I love when trolls can't help but be carefully honest... you "backed" Clinton and Sanders aka you didn't vote for Sanders and then Biden and suddenly get redpilled by a Brandon Straka hoax campaign, you didn't vote for anyone at all! How's the weather there in Olgino?
Who did you vote for in 2016 and 2020?
