Building a clown arena at the circus.

Witchfire@lemmy.world · 102 pts · 108d (3 replies)

As a circus performer, I'd like to take a moment to point out that the circus is traditionally full of outcasts and artists who challenge the status quo and are often exploited by capitalism. It's also given us antifascist icons like Josephine Baker.

I know it's a common saying and I'm just pissing into the ocean here, but I'm just trying to make a small change for the better. This dumpster fire of a regime could not run a circus if they wanted to.

They couldn't run a bath

SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 108d

I tried to run a bath, but the collar kept sinking

Typhoon@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 108d

They'd run a bath for the kids.

We’re plenty ashamed, don’t worry.

MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 107d

About 70% of us, anyway.

Even President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho didn't waste money like this.

I wonder how Fox Mews is going to spin it when the orange pedo starts drooling over the UFC fighters and starts telling them how sexy and gorgeous they are...

I'm expecting them to give him a title belt they just invented.

phutatorius@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 108d

UFC also stands for Ugly Fat Cunt.

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 108d

Nah but he will go on at length about how big a man he is and everybody says he should have had a career as a great fighter more and more. Bigly.

I'm pretty sure you need to be over 18 to qualify for ufc...

Jhex@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 108d (3 replies)

well he almost licked that other ufc fighter he saw the other week … maybe a 20 something is now young enough to feel like pedophilia for him

All good, wasn't an issue just commenting on my disgust of that

This photo looks like a giant robotic insect is moments away from destroying the White House. Sadly, this is not the case.

When the king is a clown, the palace becomes a circuis

When propaganda causes voters to vote 3rd party or stay home, you get to live in conservative clown reality.

CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 106d

The candidates are what drove people to sit out or vote 3rd party. Trump or Dick Cheney's favorite genocidal candidate isn't a choice worth making. The longer people like yourself refuse to face reality, the longer it'll be before we dig ourselves out of this deep hole.

LOL first thing I thought of.

luthis@lemmy.nz · 17 pts · 108d (1 reply)

Great, there will be crowds there. Maybe overwhelmed security. Confusing lights. Good opportunity to take a shot.

PunnyName@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 108d

Honestly, best opportunity.

Could people stop fucking this up, please‽

It's going to take soooo long to get Trump's stank out of DC..

PunnyName@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 108d (2 replies)

He's not leaving. That's why he wants his bunker ballroom. If he's alive for the midterms, say "goodbye" to the democratic voting process entirely.

Drusas@fedia.io · 2 pts · 107d (1 reply)

He'll die eventually.

PunnyName@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 106d

That's not soon enough!

LemmyBruceLeeMarvin@lemmy.ml · 13 pts · 108d

bread and circuses

switcheroo@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 108d

It's going to take forever to de-stench the WH after that dumb turd finally gets flushed. Might as well demolish the whole fucking area....

lechekaflan@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 108d

Hamburgers and circuses for the faithful.

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 108d

It’s ironic how just pictures of the building (or lack of) itself is more truthful about what’s going on than anyone in the administration.

NatakuNox@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 108d

I went to school with Justin. I hope he pulls out of the event.

Shitting on it just like our Constitution.

Clown country circling the drain.

i'll be honest, UFC match at the white house is actually kinda cool.

HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 16 pts · 108d (1 reply)

U might wanna get checked

SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 0 pts · 106d

Not even a little.

That's like saying having a furry convention in a church is kinda cool.

IronBird@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 108d

tbf that would be the coolest thing to happen in any church ever

PunnyName@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 108d

Furry conventions are good things. Don't taint them with a church!

Spacehooks@reddthat.com · 2 pts · 108d

But then the wifi will get fixed

flandish@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 108d
