I live here. It is a great city - letting it fall like Detroit would be a disaster. The reason why you lose gems like this is because it was worth winning to begin with.
Letting it go without a fight is the action of cowards and the weak.
Right - i dont waste an ounce of energy thinking about this situation. Trump is in, he has 3 and a half more years to correct this ship. Everything inbetween is theater.
Though I will say, it has been bad theater. Not unlike 2020. I dont have to love the movie, guys. Stop trying to get me excited for parts of the film I will always hate, even if it has a good ending.
They are going to say it with such a puzzled, smug look. "Who is this Epstein guy everyone can't seem to stop obsessing over? Honestly, it's weird"
And then they all look at each other and laugh. The ultimate gaslighting.
I mean, look. It could very well be a tactical move. I absolutely see that not revealing the list, and instead using it for your own advantage to negotiate deals is a real possibility.
It is also a possibility that instead, Trump is being held by the balls by the people we elected him to beat. Not unlike what happened in 2020.
I am in "wait and see" mode - but if Trump fails, that is it for this country.
Uranus just entered Gemini the day he released that statement on Epstein.
I am not huge on the cope here. I look at all of these things, dont love any of it, and remind myself that the Whore of Babylon wasn't going to do any better.
I have no choice but to trust the only man that stood up against the DS.
I am definitely not holding out hope that we have true white lights like this sub seems to.
I am one of those that tends to believe we are entering into a demon's age (Age of Aquarius is ruled by Saturn - he is the ruler of demons). I know everyone wants to believe in God's kingdom, and that anything else is heresy - but all of the signs of the changing of the Age is there.
So with that being said, there is such thing as demon tech that can be used to stave off greater evil - even if it means we now have to deal with a new hellscape in the wake of it.
I actually do this for a living - without going too crazy into detail, this seems a bit overblown. But because I do this for a living, it is why the charges against Trump were INSANELY overblown.
So while I get the "tit for tat", I scoff at the charges for Trump, and scoff at these too.
I am not about to pretend moral outrage just because it owns the libs.
Seriously tho. Joey Nova's and B Grizzly's Pizza were the best pizza I had in Minnesota. Word on the street says that B Griz is no more.
Miss that north woods pizza.
Davanni's was cardboard to me. Also honorable mention to Pizza Luce being insanely overrated drunk pizza.
The real funny bit about this whole thing? The reaction to it is the exact inverse of what happened in 2020.
Both events had something untoward happen. Both events had a result that occurred due to the actions outside of just the votes surrounding the election. One prevented cheating, the other enacted it. But how you felt about the election depended largely on what side you were on.
If you go to the sub r/somethingiswrong20245 on reddit (if you can bare it, anyway), so much of what they have been saying about this election sounds pretty much point for point what you found on this sub, PDW, and other right wing forums back in 2020. It's astonishing - right on down to the whole "they need to commit the crime for the military to come in and convict" nonsense cope that was going on hardcore over here and PDW.
The fact that we are having people come out and basically do the right wing version of "how the deep state protected this election" thing is beyond funny.
I know some of you dont love astrology for various reasons, but Rick Levine looked at the astrology of January 6th in particular, and he made mention that it directly squared, to the degree, what happened on January 6th, 2020. Squares in astrology are the closest thing you can get to what we would colloquially think of as an opposite.
And that is exactly what has happened - in 2020, a side cheated. They won. In 2024, a side prevented cheating. That side won.
What we pointed out as cheating in 2020 was then proudly declared "fortifying the election". What they pointed out in 2024 as cheating is now basically being called the same thing.
What a world we live in.
It is patently insane that this was ever a thing. But the reality is that we have LONG since lost the idea of the importance of laws to begin with.
Instead, we have just been stuck in the weeds, arguing stupid points by people who were disingenuous to begin with.
Jupiter vs. Mercury - at some point, the broader spirit or point is the one you should be paying attention to. Anyone forcing you into mercurial arguments at all times have simply cast a spell on you, and you are getting tricked.
