@Austin_Dern Haha, YES, exactly.

re: uspol, extremely unkind (snarky update, sorry) 

Yes, folks, I GET that the spread among the MAGAoids is still a threat. I should have specified ASIDE from that. There's still a pretty meaningful distinction, I think, between "I still care for you and want to save you" and "I want you to be well so your filthy diseased deluded ass doesn't get us all killed."

re: uspol, extremely unkind 

@001zlnv Goes without saying. *nod*

uspol, extremely unkind 

OK, seriously, is anybody still actively concerned about right-wingers dying from COVID denialism? Is anybody still not actively cheering for it?

I am at the point where I can literally no longer mentally model how I could care about these people nor how anyone else could. I can't even model whether that's right or wrong anymore.

petty cruelty comma mine 

I've become such a petty fuck when debating with Trumpies that I will even deliberately mix factual arguments in with personal insults PURELY in the hopes someone will accuse me of an ad hominem argument.

That was I can point out that it's only an ad hominem if you actually base your argument on it and they're using the term wrong.

And then I insult them again. :D

@Austin_Dern HAHAHA YES, her work is PRECISELY the poetical equivalent of Hot Dish and Ambrosia Salad...

"Aw hell, naw, Karen, keep your bland-ass potato salad to yourself."

uspol, snark, rickroll 

Wouldn't it be hilarious if we Vile Antifa actually DID dress up like MAGAs (and Vikings), stock up on tasers, zip ties & other Mall Ninja gear, show up at the lawn on 1/6/22, make like we were gonna raid... and then break into a mass choreography of Never Gonna Give You Up?

@balinares I haven't been able to find any leaderboards, but let me know if I'm up for any awards for that score. I'm pretty confident I am.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@balinares For the record... I lasted a minute and eight seconds.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@balinares

*five seconds in*

Oh. Oh, no. No I did not. I did not know. Not at all.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@balinares i knew what i was in for within about 500 milliseconds D:

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@balinares Oh dear.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Leucrotta @kistaro @Soreth Yeah. Seriously. I honestly do think that a little academic experience could do wonders for this woman. Just a crash course in meter and traditional structures and the fact there's more to poetry than rhyming couplets with zero scansion.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@kistaro @Soreth (good line!)

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Austin_Dern AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHH, she's so sweet and sincere and bad at this.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Austin_Dern Her site is such a glurge factory D:

BRACE YOURSELF for this one.

@Soreth @kistaro

The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool.
They lay. They rotted. They turned
Around occassionally.
Bits of flesh dropped off them from
Time to time.
And sank into the pool's mire.
They also smelt a great deal.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Soreth @kistaro I dunno, I do get serious Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings vibes from her.
