See that's just it I don't think this picture shows that he was stupid as a kid I think it shows that he's unwilling to grant the freedom of self-expression and self-discovery that he went through to kids today.

It's not his participation in this picture that is damning in any way, It's who he is now that damns him.

The kid in this picture was doing normal kid shit, I can't even figure out why someone might be offended by it but I know a Republican WOULD immediately reach for their pearlsif they saw this picture thinking it was taken recently. They would call it wokeness, and attribute it to the deep state.

It seems like JD Vance hasn't always been a creeper weirdo, and maybe at one point in his life people found him funny.

It's even worse than that

If you were chatting with them and you used the proper name "Affordable Care Act" or ACA to describe Obamacare they would immediately think it is a dog whistle for communism and that it was just a way for liberals to rebrand Obamacare. Their entire universe is backwards, inside out, and upside down.

I've worked in 2 different schools in the IT department and 4 others as a volunteer lecturer (I got a name tag that said Technology Evangelist) I found that putting an analog clock on the screen saver of computers in the classroom was more likely to result in the clock actually being on time.

Too many clocks in classrooms are very old or even battery powered but neglected.

I don't think kids are dumb just they aren't getting a world that is properly maintained by competent people that care about their work and are adequately resourced to do the whole job.

...and he only got that job because of how hard up for cash he was after somehow managing to lose money on a casino.

In the world of business Donald Trump is boldly pioneering the frontier of incompetence.

Lots of people are saying it. Everyday someone comes to me to say Donald Trump is an amazing loser of money. Big strong men come to me in tears saying No one can lose money quite as confidently as Trump, (with the possible exceptions of Cathie Woods and Elon Musk).

You don't give him enough credit.

He didn't just lose it all, until the presidential graft, he had lost a couple orders of magnitude more money than the substantial fortune he inherited.

They don't see it that way. This is another "black helicopter" thing where they just assume it's part of the CommieLib-MkUltra-Deepstate and that every piece of evidence that runs contrary to that narrative is so obviously manufactured by Nancy Pelosi using a 3D printed, Jewish-space-neuralizer organized by AOC to delete her feet pictures off the internet.

It's clearly just aconspiracy to ruin the lives of the UberMerican loud minority of manly lifted truck driving estranged fathers wearing Izod Sport jackets with iron-on bald eagles and American flags.

If he were a real Republican® Christian© American™, he wouldn't have done a violence, but if he had, his aim would have been true, and and he would have gotten away.

Stupid is a stupid does, and smart is just the ability to efficiently accomplish your objectives with the resources available to you.

I would argue that Trump is smart in that he has managed to, with limited intellectual, strategic, or character resources pull off one of the largest con jobs in American history.

He doesn't want to do good for America, he wants to do good for himself and has achieved heretofore not possible levels of graft and extortion and all of this without facing any real consequences himself.

He's not a good man, He's not an intelligent man, but he is a smart monster. He not an imbecile, he's not witless, but he is a stupid business man.

Trump proves that you can be stupid and smart at the same time because they can apply to different qualities of a person.

He is undeniably a bad American.

The last time I saw a DBZ episode there was only one set of dragon balls and the animation was 8-12 frames a second. Now it seems like everyone is immortal, there is a multiverse, and Goku can clown on actual gods for the lols.

I thought this was a post mocking Tate's tuck job 'mankini' picture at first.

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I'm just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren't just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

 
 
 

I added some more unifi APs, a Raspberry Pi4 for a low power unifi controller, and I replaced the MOCA bridges with multiple Cat6 runs letting me power most of the wifi from the generator in the basement across the house.

I should probably do a full write up of what it all is and why, and I plan to get optimum and Verizon working together so I can leverage both internet connections in the whole house.
