I have been doing ADA compliance professionally for a while. There is no magic on this one. There’s no existing solution that doesn’t require manual interference because it requires context. Human context. It has to be understood to be understandable. There’s a few things you can do to improve overall accessibility but nothing in a suite. I specialize in InDesign and it’s probably the most powerful document solution going. But it requires a lot of work to meet the most basic of requirements.

Yeah. This is them in the video.

I think their goal is to tear everything down so the people are forced to rely on them for food, medicine, everything. True feudal state situation. Voting and personality are not needed with that mindset.

Apparently everything is legal now as long as you’re willing to bend the knee.

I will absolutely knock the trunk or treat concept. It has removed kids from their surroundings. One key concept from trick or treating back in the day is meeting your neighbors (with the safety of your parents behind you) and briefly seeing in their houses and getting vibes. If shit went bad, I bet you’d have a safe space picked out from Halloween night to go to. And I bet you recall houses that don’t seem safe. This is important to the childhood psyche, I feel. And trunk or treat pulls that all away. And, you’re right, so do rich neighborhoods. I’m two blocks off of one those streets. They were absolutely packed on that street. We got zero trick or treaters at our place (our first Halloween here).

These fuckers are all too weird to blend in even in Portland. They’ve been spotted immediately from what I hear. Let that sink in.

Because they’re both too fucking weird and angry to ever be elected by anyone. Just parasites riding the shark.

I’ve heard that before too but being an old bastard, I’m pretty certain Clinton didn’t do it until after he was debating Bob Dole. Bob Dole used this gesture because he held a pen during debates. And he held a pen in his non-dominant hand because he had an injury in WWII and the way his hand curled made him look weak.

That’s the big question isn’t it? I don’t know the legality behind it, but being paid by someone other than the citizenry is extremely problematic. Taking an oath to the Constitution (that protects the rights of the people) while being paid by an individual, well that starts turning the corner from standing army to being mercenaries.

I think it’s just them realizing that without the military protecting them by threat or actual force, they’re liable to be literally on the chopping block. To that end, I will note that the private military contractors have seemingly been disturbingly quiet for having an authoritarian in power.

This is some Doctor Strange spellbook shit. “Why would they put the warnings at the end?”

They got private donors to fund the troops, I believe.

I also didn’t know about the Nazi connection, it looks like something a biker would have, which should have been a red flag to the imagery I guess, but it looks like a kind of standard skull to me otherwise.

I have a raised eyebrow on Platner. He seems genuine. A couple of odd details admittedly. But unless he’s some kind of psyop candidate, he seems fine enough. I do wish his cover up for a Nazi symbol was much further away from the accusation than Celtic symbols.

So, what they’re saying is they’ve been lying about having a mandate all this time.

Sopranos and Game of Thrones are the ones I recall having the most uproar. To this day, new videos on YouTube about how awful they were.

It’s definitely a thought, though. I think they’ve been doing that lately. Moving too fast. Overplaying their hand. Being too overt in their power grabs. Rocking the boat more than they need to. A lot of pundits seem to think the urgency is because of Trump’s quickly failing health. That does seem to track

As if he wasn’t going to do this anyway. It’s just faster for him to do it without the uproar. If the media were doing their job calling out how batshit stupid he is, maybe it wouldn’t have gotten to this point.

“Opt to go uninsured” is certainly how I’d phrase the choice between affording rent and food or healthcare.
