when yuri andropov was appointed general secretary of the soviet union, he was widely regarded as emblematic of a generation of hopelessly out-of-touch gerontocratic coffin-dodgers. he was 68 years old.

in 2024, hillary will be 77, donnie will be 78, joe will be 82. pelosi will be 84.

gorbachev is still alive now, and will be a sprightly 94 in 2024, maybe he can run

My theory is every generation gets one wish granted and that after growing up with Reagan and Thatcher Gen X wanted to opt out of politics and listen to Pearl Jam/Slint/Oasis. The next US president will be a boomer and after that a millennial.

Pearl Jam/Slint/Oasis

*confused face*

As in, one of the above, but certainly not all three.

Fucking Peal Jam. Dirge Jam more like, am I right?

Are you from the north of England? No. You're not. Take your morose song, and fuck off to Sheffield, Huddersfield, or Leeds for at least 6 years, THEN I'll take it under consideration.

Are Slint still going?

Why Slint? why not Babylon Zoo or Shaggy?

I heard Slint reformed and did a tour after they ran out of money.
The Skint Tour.

I'm glad they didn't keep it inside.

Trying to wind up thumped.

I was going to include Wu-Tang but decided that I didn't need to overthink this, incorrectly as it turned out as this is exactly the kind of thing the Gen X-ers on thumped care passionately about.

They earned it it honestly in their crusade to drain the swamp. Trump derangement syndrome right here.

thats either one poorly rendered car, or a subtle dig at QC in the US car industry

 

[seanc]

It does show that the Trump fans like their symbols, slogans and logo's. And of course the flag.

But unlike a real Nascar, that car has no commercial advertising at all.

I postulate so that that car is a DAMNED COMMUNIST!

what's the significance of the 'LGB FJB' stickers on the front bumper?

 

[seanc]

There's a lot of questions about that.

Why "Let's go Brandon"?

Who is Jon McNaughton? Did he paint it or is he just the copyright holder? It saddens me whenever I see Americans with Irish names doing the Trump thing.

Edit: oh man, just checked Jon's website.
