In a one-hour briefing with a foreign policy expert, Donald Trump asked three times why the US can’t just use nuclear weapons. Three. Times.

The presidency is set up in such a way that, during a crisis, the president is able to launch nuclear weapons without argument. Military officers directly under his command are sworn to do as he asks in these scenarios, and cannot decline. That would be a criminal offense. Treason.

The likelihood that Donald Trump will start a nuclear war if elected is fucking staggering and we AS A SPECIES cannot afford to let it happen. The Cold War only ended 25 years ago, we can’t go back to living in that state of fear. We can’t elect a literal, actual fascist who wants to do away with the Geneva Conventions, would forcibly seize land in the Middle East, has quoted Benito Mussolini along with his #MakeAmericaGreatAgain hashtag, has proposed numerous policies that go against the United States Constitution and threaten rule of law (and here’s a list), consistently encourages his supporters to commit violence (and EACH WORD of that is a separate link, and it’s not even the bulk of stories on the matter), and wants the world to prepare for nuclear war. I could list PLENTY MORE of these, but it’s making me feel physically ill to keep looking over these.

This is horrifying. Please, for the love of god, vote Clinton. Vote for the candidate who is not an aspiring fascist dictator with an itchy nuclear-launch finger. Do not waste your vote on a third party. Don’t let the next Ralph Nader effect occur. Don’t put this man in office, I am begging you.

Rebagel. I find this is the most important reason to not vote Trump, even if you hate Hillary with every fiber of your being.

WE’VE HIT TERMINAL MEME

@caesarianconfection

I’ve said “I hate this” so many times on this website, and never actually meant it, because “I hate this” is just shorthand for ‘this is an example of a meme given a twist I wasn’t expecting with intent to surprise’. Which is, in of itself, a meme on this site. God damn it.

But this… This is something else.

The rapidity of a meme’s introduction to its zenith to its decline is so rapid that in ten years, you’ll need a damn twenty-page manual to explain this. It’ll be as unfunny and hard to explain as jokes in Shakespeare plays, except even more inexplicable because fuck, at least Shakespeare’s jokes are usually about anal or fucking your mother, good wholesome sex jokes we can all get behind.

For the love of fuck, how do you explain loss.jpg? How do you explain gun?

@chongoblog

I can explain loss!

The origins of loss are with the webcomic, ctrl+alt+del
Its about the main character who is so stupid, nobody would actually listen to anythign they have to say in real life but since the web comic is basically the internet version of a happy maddison film, of course the people who actually have sense listen to everything the main character says and are always surprised when it goes wrong. Since he was a loser and it’s unfathomably self indulgent, of course the loser gets to marry the hot girl. Now, throughout the entire series, the creator only ever drew a few faces and poses and only ever in 4 panels arranged in a rectangle. This breaks up the image and makes it unable to flow whenever there’s supposed to be a fast paced scene and it leads to it being unable to properly convey dramatic tension due to the limited angles he draws.
Anywho, the main character and his wife end up expecting a baby, but that’s where loss comes in. For no reason other than to add drama, he makes the pregnancy be a miscarriage. Now, as I stated before, due to the shape of the comic and the limited angles, the creator cannot convey fast paced, dramatic scenes very well. Loss was supposed to be a dramatic, fast paced scene but because he uses only one expression, everyone looks tired and the way the comic is shaped, it breaks up the tension. The fact that he could fuck up such an important scene and it was clear he jumped the shark was memeworthy so then people started editing the pic into places. Soon it evolved into editing other pics or grabbing four screenshots to look like loss. Alwasy one panel of someone walking through a door, two panels of two people talking to each other and one panel of someone laying down. From there it evolved to the minimalistic meme where people attempt to make it as small as possible or make it so people have to figure it out. Essentially, it is the visual form of a rick roll.
