can != will

…the current regime will continue doing whatever the f*ck they want as long as nobody’s willing to stop them…

…oh, i think you misunderstand me: that’s not impaired driving, that’s skillful navigation through the normal flow of traffic in sàigòn…

…oh, that’s just the vietnam regional setting…

…i was thinking bathtub cheese but that’ll do…

…hot tub time machine; absurdly better film than its pitch had any right to be…

…there’s one clear victor and it’s not even close…

…nah man, that’s on the domestic dealers + automakers choosing not to market small affordable cars in favor of big profitable road-tanks, and it’s not the first time they’ve priced themselves out of the market like this…

…we were also taught that the spark was actually southern states’ seizure of federal assets…

…likewise; my wife was apoplectic when i suggested that the civil war was about secession…

…this is the crux of it: until we confront the disinformation sphere authoritatively, the problem will persist, and crossing that line is antithetical to the american identity…

…i fear that the american identity must immolate itself, one way or the other…

…if they don’t want to be called fascists, maybe they should consider not being f*cking fascists…
