“Shit just works.” Oh good! I like it when shit just works!

POTUS Donald Trump intends to use America’s wars with Iran and Venezuela as justification for cancelling the US midterm elections for Congress. That will prevent the hugely unpopular Republicans, today all Trump Nazis, from losing power.

It shouldn’t work; the US has had plenty of wartime elections, and the POTUS should not have that power, anyway. But US law means nothing to today’s Republicans or the Nazi, Donald John Trump.

Trump will decree the midterms cancelled; blue states will tell him to fuck off, while red states will agree. Half the country won’t even prepare their polling places. The whole mess will go to SCOTUS, and in flagrant disagreement with the US Constitution that they’re sworn to uphold, they will side with Trump. The midterms will be cancelled. The 2028 POTUS election will similarly be cancelled. The Republicans will remain in power without the support of the majority of the US population, and Trump will be a full-fledged dictator and POTUS for life, free from prosecution for his numerous crimes.

Trump is the most powerful and successful criminal in US history, and his iron-fisted reign of terror continues because the Biden Administration was too feckless to bring him to justice when they could. If Trump wasn’t POTUS, today he would be in jail or house arrest, and barred from further participation in US politics because of his J6 insurrection. But he is POTUS, and he’s all too happy to abuse that power to the fullest to remain a free and happy Nazi.

I’m not your cat, buddeh!

I had a period of unemployment last year during which I had to sell my PS5 to pay my power bill. I’m working again, but it’ll be years before I can afford another video game console. I hope my launch-era PS4 keeps hanging in there, I’m worried for its hard drive.

Where’s Sue?

if we have the election

which we won’t

Remember the live fire military exercise over CA’s Interstate 5, that would’ve probably killed people if Newsom hadn’t shut it down?

These “tests” will go the same way.

Yep, nearly all my life, or contacts.

When I first started Silksong and noticed my Silk upgrades were gone after death, I first thought they were gone for good. I thought a particular monster had eaten them, sort of like one of the bosses in Demon’s Souls, who can steal your character levels (or so I read, I never got to him).

Thank goodness Team Cherry at least held back here! You get them back when you find and smash the cocoon at your point of death.

And +1 for runbacks, also hair-pulling in Silksong. I never thought I’d be able to get through Bilewater.

how do you do, fellow kid

Fragile world-spanning deliveries.

Silksong has me screaming over them, 10 - 20 minutes of walking and one too many smacks at the end ruins it. And then there’s the one that’s also timed!

But to be fair, most of Silksong gets me yelling at the TV on the regular! I love it and hate it!

I think age makes a big difference, too. I’m over 50 and I’ve never been able to really tell between 720p and 1080i and 1080p, much less higher resolutions. And I’m nearsighted.

The well is deeper than you think!

yep, just like the wall

“Scared ya!”

don’t care, got cake

You bet I’ll “Badly go whence none men has before gone” for dang cake

Actually looks like a pretty nice cake!
