For people who ask stupid questions about their gender.

Sure, but that just goes back to the original point - he's super weirdly obsessed with greed and hate and being a control freak, and will never be happy no matter how much money he has.

Money can't make you happy, but the lack of money can certainly make you unhappy.

I'm not going to say that the rich are just as unhappy as the rest of us, because they'll never know what it is to truly struggle. But take a look at Elon Musk; does he look happy to you? Dude bought and destroyed Twitter because people there wouldn't stop making fun of him, and he still can't stop them. He's driven his daughter out of his life because he can't accept she's trans, which has only made him go even more full on transphobe and bleed over into every other bigoted thought under the sun. He just fucking gutted Tesla, his big pride and joy, because he couldn't stand his "inferiors" talking back to him and trying to stop him from making terrible mistakes. All his victims are undoubtedly struggling more than he is, thanks largely to his capriciousness and evil, but he certainly doesn't look happy to me.

And the funny thing is, he could be absolutely happy if he could let shit go. If I had his money, I wouldn't even bother with all this petty shit; I'd hire people to manage the money, put as much of it into charity work as I could, find some tropical island somewhere, and spend the rest of my life sipping on margaritas and watching sunsets. But he can't help himself. He's incapable of letting go, which stops him from ever being happy.

And you think that would be different under Trump?

Trump and Bibi are besties. There wouldn't even be the token resistance Biden puts up; he'd hand Israel enough weapons to turn Gaza into a glass parking lot, and probably would have done the same to Columbia by now.

The thing about it is, Biden can be pressured to, eventually, take steps towards the right thing. Trump cannot; he already sees everyone but himself and his bootlickers as subhuman anyway.

A quote from the novel Feat of Clay by Terry Pratchett, courtesy https://bsky.app/profile/rincewind.run/post/3knjfwp442b2g

"Commander, I always used to consider that you had a definite anti-authoritarian streak in you.”

“Sir?”

“It seems that you have managed to retain this even though you are authority.”

“Sir?”

“That’s practically zen."

I swear, these are the best worst ads I've ever seen

Tweet text:

Around 2003 in Chile, when the original trilogy of Star Wars began airing on television there, they did this funny thing to avoid cutting to commercial breaks. They stitched the commercials into the films themselves. Here is one of them, with the English dub added in.

Edit: Yes, it's real, and it's spectacular.
