The bigliest lol of all, which we will not be alive to perceive, will be Two Scoops living out his days sealed up in Mount Weather with Melania, who will be mad as hell at him, and poor Barron who didn't deserve it, but also Attorney General Keebler Elf, and the She-Huck, and Skeletor, and his lovely cabinet of sycophants, with not a McDonald's meal available to him for the rest of his miserable life. He will try to tweet into the ether, surrounded by people who hate him and each other, bored as hell and sinking daily even deeper into dementia. That's a spicy and dark lol!

Your best bet is to join your fellow Canadians and move to Florida. Gov Rick Scott wants you! Be sure to buy an offloaded Trump property near Mar-a-lago. You may not get hit by the only NK nuke to make it, but you will be in direct line of the follow-up Chinese nukes.

I can help you navigate to the nearest protest and hook you up with George Soros. I'm only an hour away. If the Russians contribute another Tsar Bomba, you don't even need to leave the couch.

gently caress, even Fox is aware how ridiculous this is at some level. Here's their loving headline:

Trump tells Kim Jong Un his 'nuclear button' is larger, 'more powerful'

FWIW, the likelihood that even if Kim did launch a nuke it'd actually launch, fly, land on target and then detonate correctly are far from 100%.

Building a nuke and a delivery platform is hard - Building a reliable one even more so.

Well, sweet dreams!

You're right, of course.
But the fact that the reasoning is now down to: "Heh, they simply don't have reliable enough guidance systems to put it on target" :smuggo: is troubling.

*shrug* I'm no expert in global geopolitics, but the Russias aren't mad - what have they got to gain from doing that? They've far more to lose. You'd have to ACTUALLY be an insane person to look at allying with NK as a good idea. The Chinese only tolerate them because the alternative - a collapse of the NK state - puts millions of refugees on their doorstep.

A lot of Fox News commenters seem very sure that the US military is capable of shooting down any number of incoming ballistic missiles via various secret programs that they somehow know about.

i'm not gonna google the exact numbers cuz it's late and f that but in ideal testing conditions those systems don't work at nearly 100% accuracy so under real world conditions maybe like 30-50% accuracy? obviously we have more than one but also obviously korea wouldn't launch a single missile and even just 1 getting past and hitting a major city would be a loving disaster

plus the US would counter launch and hoo boy lol better hope the Chinese or Russians aren't feeling twitchy as there are ICBMs launched by Donald Trump heading towards their landmasses

afaik the Russians still have their dumbass dead man's trigger system going too and seeing as it is russian im sure that poo poo will just trigger one day and kill us all anyway

there are african ameriacns on the jury. Therefor it is a Black Lives Matter rally.

also washington DC is 49% black. so it makes sense that the jury would be about half black.

This does seem like one of those moments where you read something ridiculous in the T&Cs and think 'well, that's stupid, but it must have been put in because it was needed'.

After this, all future new twitter accounts will have to manually declare they "Will not use this service to either initiate or otherwise immanentize an Eschaton event'

Dear Twitter User:

There is a significant difference between saying "I CAN exterminate all life on the planet" and "I WILL exterminate all life on the planet." After considering this matter closely we have concluded that no action is required in this case. Please have a nice day. - Raj
