You’re correct of course. How could I have forgotten?
Personally I think it’s just the usual incoherent right-wing worldview. Their concept of “the government” somehow doesn’t include the president, the military, or law enforcement.
I’m just glad we have an adult at the helm and I don’t have to wake up the next morning to see what bat shit insane thing has just happened.
Exactly. For four years, practically every fucking day it was, “Oh God, what’s he done now?”
I’m grateful to this strip because reading it caused me to learn the correct spelling of “abstruse”. I’ve never heard anyone say the word, and for some reason I had always read it as “abtruse”, without the first S.
I haven’t had live TV in years and it’s quite shocking to see what the average user deals with. Junk TV + ads that play 30% of the time is absolutely insane.
Yeah, I’ve had the same experience. We don’t have live TV, and when we occasionally hang out with friends or family who do I’m always flabbergasted at the frequency and length of ad breaks nowadays, and similarly amazed that despite a nearly endless list of channels there never seems to be anything I actively want to watch.

Fine by me. I never saw any value in it, even well before Musk took over. The character limit is guaranteed to eliminate any nuance, and the interface makes it incredibly difficult to follow what discussion there is.
I don’t think that the people who provide the content and the people who moderate the content are wrong in thinking that they should be accorded some respect by a site that would be worthless without that content.
Yes, the whole thing is especially frustrating because the app was quite nice. Harriette did a really good job really quickly.
