Rex Tillerson could have just carried on being a big money oil billionaire and doing whatever the gently caress he wanted to do

but now he's the dumb, lazy guy who got fired on the toilet over twitter

He gets to continue being a big money millionaire, and a year of public abuse by Trump let him sell all of his built up Exxon stock grants tax free.

Remember when the Russians were making fake pisstapes and distributing them through backchannels to western spy agencies to muddy the waters and provide some plausible deniability in case the real pisstape got leaked?

So I’m an old here, and haven’t posted in very long time. Not to make this too “life affirmation story” or anything like that, but this thread has probably saved me from some self- harm poo poo. I definitely keep up with politics, and it’s been a rough 2 years for me, because of reading blogs and turning to the basic reaction of gnashing teeth and wrending of cloths because of the shitshow that America has become. And then I found this thread, and my quality of life has increased significantly. My only regret is that I’ve hmboled so hard, that I miss my balls. But I have the solace of being able to view them from space from time to time, much like the ISS, and sometimes I can see Mercury and say to myself, “there’s Mercury and my balls, what a rich pageant we live.” So thank you, goons, for giving me some perspective. And also allowing my balls to be satellites, because life is so short. And also the acknowledgment that our president is indeed retarded. We

Not just that, they breathed in a poo poo ton of lead in the air from leaded gasoline. Neil DeGrasse Tyson's (RIP) Cosmos had almost a whole episode on it. Unleaded gasoline started in 1974, and leaded gasoline wasn't eliminated until 1996.

But we just let the Boomers run everything as though they're not retarded.

I was born in '65. Since then, I:

-Crawled around on the floor after the exterminator came through and remember the smell of the DDT

-Ate paint chips (yellow was my favorite because it reminded me of sunshine)

-Was the designated refueler for the car on long road trips, long before they had those newfangled vapor reclaimer doohickies on them. Ah, the sweet smell of leaded gas!

-I remember chewing on solder (contains lead) and fishing sinkers (it was a weird sweet taste that makes my stomach churn to this day thinking about it)

I'm 53, and aside from depression, anxiety, PTSD, and a variety of chronic pain i'm JUST FINE.

We'll do ok, humanity is a tenacious beast. But we honestly DO need to stop using our planet as a giant toilet.

Also, we need to get rid of the gigantic orange tumor in the White House so we can do damage assessment asap and figure out just how hosed we ALL are.

Lol the art of war is the most retardedly basic marriage of opposites motivational poster nonsense. It contains almost no insightful anything other than very obvious concepts of engagement and defense that have little to no meaning in politics.

Well they're not obvious to a new/fresh officer in training necessarily but yeah outside of specific war stuff it's pretty dumb and I hate that it is some motivational poster basically. It's also super short and non-specific.
