#go out and make people feel like the matrix is glitching hardcore

If you had an identical twin that you get along with, you could probably have a lot of fun by getting to know other sets of identical twins and then pulling pranks with them.

Like seeing two people who look exactly the same close proximity to each other? Yeah that's totally twins. But imagine being in an art gallery where there's a group of five people on the 1st floor, and you go up the stairs and ???? the exact same group of five people is also there?? And you didn't see them pass you at the stairs?

I keep remembering a run of Hamlet I saw a few years ago, where the Ghost was costumed in full plate armour which was very noisy, and instead of muffling it, they had him crash across the stage, stomping so the whole set rattled, and he said all of his lines in a bellow, like he was furious with Hamlet.

And the thing that made it absolutely terrifying was that Hamlet was the only one who reacted. He was cowering, and covering his ears with both hands, and yelling to be heard over the noise.

And no one else seemed to know why he was doing that. The other actors didn't even raise their voices.

That's scary, something so loud and painful, and REAL, and the people around you don't even notice it, and think that you're the crazy one.

Look I have zero excuses for this, but the idea popped into my head and now it's in your head, sorry

I like that the eagle was named Uncle Sam.

Donald Trump gets attacked by an eagle.

This eagle truly represents America. What a majestic symbol.

By the time Senate Majority Leader John Thune was celebrating getting to a 51-50 vote, it was clear Republicans had turned themselves inside out. House members who walked the plank to back it—at least on the first vote—announced they were not seeking re-election. (G’day, Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska.) Colleagues who stuck to their guns and opposed it became targets of a White House led by their own party. (G’luck, Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky.) And at least one of the three Senators who couldn’t stomach voting for it decided to pack it up and head home rather than face an impossible route to another term given primary- and general-election landmines of their own making. (Safe travels, Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina.)

Holdouts like Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mike Lee of Utah, and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming all got to yes. Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Rand Paul of Kentucky did not.

But, man, this was messy. It might not be over, given both chambers have to pass matching legislation before Trump can sign it into law. Republicans in the House have already sounded off that they would take a red sharpie to the Senate’s version. If the sticking points become intractable, someone—namely Trump—may have to step in with a bullhorn and a bullying menace. And there’s no telling what a wronged Trump can do when he settles on proper retribution for anyone who dared impede his victory lap.

It’s rare for legislation like this to advance even as everyone in Washington understands it to be a political drag...

Do not think for a moment that this admin is only going after trans folks. They are ultimately going after the whole LGBTQ community. They start small, like getting rid of a hotline option, then go BIG.
