Brian Thompson of UnitedHealthcare Named The Misinformer’s Dead Rich Guy of the Year
It’s that time of year again where we look back on our superior elite overlords and honor the most notable one with The Misinformer’s yearly Dead Rich Guy of the Year. Just like every year, competition was rife, but one person stood out from the rest of the crowd, and that was none other than UnitedHealthcare’s very own Brian Thompson.
Murdered just a few weeks ago, Brian Thompson cemented a name for himself by indirectly murdering thousands of people himself, letting them out of their misery and helping them avoid the inevitable hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical debt they were bound to get in
He was one of America’s top medical experts, routinely denying thousands of people medical treatment daily due to them not being “severe enough,” killing hundreds of more people in the process and allowing them to not have to deal with these supposed medical issues.
Thompson’s selfless actions, constantly putting the deaths of others in place of his own, caused him to be an inspiration to millions of Americans across the nation, and allowed him to be a very wealthy and influential person in the process.
When Thompson was murdered, millions would mourn his loss, viewing him as a martyr for all the lives he helped save by killing them prematurely. This level of care and selflessness is why we are posthumously awarding Brian Thompson with our annual Dead Rich Guy of the Year Award.
So thank you, Mr. Thompson, for all you have done for this country. You are truly an American hero.

Nobody for President was a satirical campaign that emerged during the 1976 United States Presidential election season. The purpose of the campaign was to highlight voter apathy, and to encourage people to register to vote, even if they didn’t necessarily support either major party candidate. It is believed that Wavy Gravy, a peace activist best known as the emcee of Woodstock and as the Grateful Dead’s resident “clown”, initially nominated Nobody for President at a Youth International Party (Yippie) rally which occurred outside of the 1976 Republican National Convention in Kansas City. The Nobody for President movement offered suggestions to counter voter apathy, including providing a None of the Above option on ballots, declaring Election Day a national holiday, and tying election participation to jury duty.

Always in the writing scene when the author themselves are drunk from the euphoria of having their words imprinted on a paper or screen. But the need of having their draft scanned over and over again for the final product is the real struggle here. The struggle to put one's words into something comprehensible, even to themselves FIRST, as its first audience of an intellectual freakshow—
Ah... The rules of the grammarian culture without sacrificing the childlike playing of random alphabet blabbering. And one's personal standard of literary utopia is waving, all after the random soliloquies whispering in one's mind as if they are asleep while writing/typing the words needed for the wordscapes recipe of an individual aspiration for having their illusions to be something material, and yet, ethereal.
The somnolent escape in the paper kingdom of mindless thoughts in order to have a mindful release to the letter collective! 😅🤣

We need to let straight people play gay characters because first off, it's acting, and secondly, I think two straight men kissing for the pleasure of gay men and straight women everywhere is kind of a win for feminism. It's equality.

Donald Trump Admits That His Transphobia Stems from Shameful Post-Nut Clarity He Had During Summer of 1978
PALM BEACH, FLORIDA - Looking visibly embarrassed as he tried to explain himself, President-elect Donald Trump would provide an explanation as to why he’s so tough on the LGBT community, particularly trans people, explaining that his “strong feelings” stem from a shameful post-nut clarity he experienced during the summer of 1978.
“I don’t really like talking about it,” Trump admitted during an interview at his own Mar-a-Lago resort. “Let’s just say that I made some stupid decisions when I was younger and a lot more stimulated, so to speak. You know, when you’re a young guy, you tend to think with your freedom fighter more than you do with your actual brain, and that made me do some things that I’ve been deeply ashamed of ever since. I don’t want to give too much details, but what I will say is that I used to throw some of the wildest parties in America, and things would go down at those parties. And before anyone asks, no, I didn’t know.”
When asked for further clarification, Trump would abruptly walk off set, ending the interview early. Trump’s campaign would later go on to release a statement, claiming that Trump’s reelection has brought “newfound stress” onto him and that as a result he “can’t articulate himself as clearly.” According to Trump’s campaign, his seemingly sexual confession about trans people was nothing more than a nonsensical mistake. Many people aren’t taking it that way, though.
“This is actually incredibly common for people who are coming to terms with the fact that they’re queer, especially among older folks,” explained gay politician Pete Buttigieg. “Denial and even self implicated hatred are how many people cope with the fact that they’re queer, until that realization hits… It’ll be interesting to see how Trump deals with this in the long run.”
Indeed, many people are looking at this situation with a sense of optimism. “Even though we were denied our chance at a woman president two different times, maybe we’ll get our first bisexual president soon enough with Trump,” said MSNBC political pundit Rachel Maddow, a lesbian. “This recent confession from Trump makes me hopeful for the future, and I can’t wait to see where his LGBT agenda takes us.”

they officially cancelled My Lady Jane after only one season because it apparently “didn’t find a broad enough audience”. i’m disappointed but not surprised, unfortunately it’s just one more name in the very long list of too-soon cancelled shows with incredible potential.

One thing that I didn’t appreciate about “Starship Troopers” as a kid was how they portrayed the battles. I thought it was just bad writing at the time. Now, I can see it for the brilliant satire that it is. You have this nation that is always projecting military strength and showing off their weaponry and soldiers. But then you watch the actual battle and the troops are:
1) ill-equipped to the point that it takes multiple soldiers to take down one bug since their rifles do little damage on their own
2) are in a battlefield without armored vehicles or air support
3) given no strategy besides shoot everything that isn’t human
4) gullible and consumed so much propaganda to the point that they legitimately believed the bugs were stupid and easy to destroy
5) developed an irrational, xenophobic hatred of all bugs because of the aforementioned propaganda
And instead of switching up the tactics, the Federation just keeps on sending meat wave after meat wave. The humans only “won” because they finally overwhelmed the bugs. Before then, they were getting slaughtered left and right. It’s like a dumb, Michael Bay sci-fi version of “All Quiet on the Western Front”.
