I think this kid’s mom’s behavior highlights exactly why he in particular turned out this way. Having ADHD is not a reason or excuse for participating in a riot. But for a 12-year-old, a neglectful or disconnected mother absolutely could be. At the very least it has to be a contributing factor and a major one.

My former strategy was to just saturation bomb them with new, increasingly ridiculous conspiracies so that they would overflow and start blurring into each other. That way the unhinged lunatics could lose all concept of reality so that no matter what conspiracy in particular they started talking about, they just sound like a rambling drunk on the subway.

That’s not cocky, you’re just in the middle of fuck-all nowhere. That Bucees’s was the last gas station and you missed it.

Boy lookit me here, I’ve been a big dummy storing my Glock in there instead of the awkwardly sized pizza tray and roasting pan. I sure do feel silly.

No that sounds an awful lot like extortion. That’s a crime you know.

I love that photo. He has a face that says “I can feel some of my neurons trying to connect together, but they keep missing so I don’t know what they’re saying.”

Ego. Trump’s narcissistic, authoritarian personality won’t allow him to retreat or surrender in what he sees as a popularity contest.

It’s okay because as the radiation blasts away at the robots circuitry they’ll have to replace it. Then they could just replace it with a better robot every few years as technology improves. It’ll become exponentially more powerful. And by the end of it they’ll have a superpowered radioactive robot… that they’ve… used for slave labor… Huh. Maybe they should rethink this plan.

Also that roebuck could probably lift three tons.

Trump Cultists: maybe if we put it on a blue poster we can trick them into voting for Trump!

You didn’t get dragged around to church as a kid obviously lol. Although I’ve come to understand that jeans and a button-down are currently considered fine, which well I have a chip on my shoulder against organized religion (although with therapy at least it’s a small one) I am firmly against formal wear because I believe it only exists to reinforce the class divide.

Nevertheless, these are little kids, and they made them feel special for accomplishing something impressive in an educational context. So for that I will simply say good job education system, you actually got this one right.

Also that tall one on the right looks like he’s doing a Samuel L. Jackson impersonation and nailing it.

Well crocheting is something that I associate in my head with my mother, I can’t help but be impressed by this just so much. Well played mademoiselle, well played.

I never thought I’d cheer on clout chasers but here I am.

I’m all for the eradication of formal wear. It only exists to reinforce the class divide. Well that and to make a bunch of assholes a lot of money.

Ankylosaurus. Extinct, but still. It’s like what you’d get if you shoved a turtle, a rhino, and a dragon into that teleporter from The Fly .

Well if they’re an e-girl they’re going to sell it online for a hundred bucks.

Oh NOW he thinks they’ve gone too far.

Also that’s where everybody keeps their money so they’re going to have things to say about it. With missiles.
