Trump’s Followers Are Living in a Dark Fantasy.

If Trump wins fair and square — which looks likely — start prepping, because Russia and China are gonna really fuck us, and soon.
Get ready. I absolutely assure you this will happen.
Received 2 ballots? Here’s what to do.
I’ve seen some people claiming today that because they received two ballots by accident, that it is proof that the voting system is fraudulent.
Funny that, since in every state of the union, duplicate ballots are not counted.
These useful idiots are just laying the coup groundwork. Is a duplicate ballot never counted? Of course not. Mistakes happen. But it’s probably one out of 5 or 10 thousand that don’t get caught.
Too many clowns, not enough clown chipper-shredders.
Coup is coming. People are already claiming evidence of election fraud to get the press prepped for it (as they’ll report any old shit).
We probably won’t need the A-10s this time. But can we use them anyway? Pretty please. Just for me.
We are cookin’ with plasma now. What the hell happened?
Jamie Dimon says World War III may have already begun.
Unusually for him, Jamie Dimon is 100% correct. We are already at war. It’s just so far a low-intensity war1 and we aren’t acting like it yet.
Referencing a Washington Post article, Dimon continued, “World War III has already begun. You already have battles on the ground being coordinated in multiple countries.”
This is accurate. We could forestall a greater conflict now if we wanted to, but no one is even attempting that. We should be doing these things:
1) Evicting Russia and DPRK from Ukraine post-haste.
2) Preventing Israel from further (justified) killing in Gaza and Lebanon.
3) Building up our defense base to be about twice what it is now, concentrating on aerial and naval drones, and much better coordination with our allies.
4) Forcing other NATO members to increase their militaries greatly as we will not be able to fight Russia in Poland and China in the South China Sea at the same time.
5) Reshoring as much industrial production as quickly as we possibly can.
The above is how we prevent WWIII and if that fails, how we make it the least bad catastrophe it can be. Because it’s coming and no one seems to notice or really care.
Four reasons not to vote for Trump, and four reasons to vote for Harris.
There is no plausible reason to vote for Trump, other than brain damage. Even apart from his previously-demonstrated incompetence, as with Biden he’s simply too old and senile. This alone disqualifies him (or should). Do you really want J.D. Vance or Elon Musk running the country?
Also, Trump seems to be in the bag for our current and future enemies. The coming conflict with China is about the only thing that matters now. No one is focused on this likely-war enough, but to the extent that anyone is Trump wants to make sure we lose.
And those two items are enough to be a big hell no for Trump. He’s bad for the world and bad for America.
Windows 2022 Servers Unexpectedly Upgrading to 2025, Aaaargh!
Well that’s a fucking nightmare scenario there. I wondered when Microsoft was going to force updates everywhere, even though it’s hugely destructive in the enterprise space.
I guess now we know!
Some people pigeonhole me as “just the IT guy,” which is in some ways understandable. Then they figure out I’m doing stuff like negotiating customer contracts and attending board meetings and they treat me completely differently.
Nah, sis, the reason I make more than my own manager often is because I am NOT “just the IT guy.”
Scientists glue two proteins together, driving cancer cells to self-destruct.
Trump’s culture of retribution has swept through American life.

What if Trump’s campaign is cover for a slow-motion coup? That’s definitely what it is. All it could be at this point.
Scientists may have figured out why a potent greenhouse gas is rising. The answer is scary.

Trump is baselessly claiming the 2024 election is being stolen from him ahead of Election Day. Well that’s the shtick, isn’t it?
Best thing to do when walking behind a women alone at night?
Most likely run at top speed while leaping up in the air like Mikhail Baryshnikov and bellowing, “I am not a rapist! I am not an abuser!”
That’s always been my go-to. Sometimes I add a little electric slide in there to really get my point across.
Remember, I am horrible at political predictions, unlike most of my others. I think I never take into account how incredibly stupid and uninformed the average is. That said, this is what I predict:
Here’s my Electoral Map:
If Trump wins, the war with China will definitely be during his term as he’s incompetent and the US will not be prepared due to his not really caring.
So start prepping sooner if Trump takes it.
For sure. The younger techs have extremely poor troubleshooting skills and lack of knowledge because they did not grow up with computers. They came up on phones and click and drool interfaces, so they know how to do nothing and don’t understand how anything works.
Most of them should not be in the field as they cause more problems than they solve. The vast majority of them don’t really seem to get any better, either. I know I will incur the wrath of many but it does seem to matter if you’ve grown up with real, general-purpose computers or not.
Fake job postings proliferate in layoff-hit tech industry.
Every fake job posting should come with a mandatory one year jail sentence for the person who posted it right up the executive chain straight to the CEO, as well as a $1 million fine for every single person involved.
