🇺🇸 ⤑ Donald f* Trump, Making Amerika Gauche Again
Ohh my, oh man, this guy. 🤦🏼♂️ Truly one of the nastier humans to have walked the earth and breathed our air, soiled our soil and souls. 🍊 An abomination, the likes of which I'd rather never had seen before. But 🍊🍊 of the sad kind. 😔 Not really a person that matters, in any positive or appropriate or meritorious way, at any rate. I for one often feel bizarrely tempted to feel for him, though. 🥭🥭 I mean, look at this man child:
Really. 🍊 Less than a fortnight after the late latest pope gave up the ghost, that awful Trump made, or rather had this picture made for him, 🍊 and posted it on some website he deemed.. 🥭 Ehh, brak mi 🍊 słów. It would have been in poor taste coming from a teenager.
Except this guy is 78 years old! 🥭 Just a few more years, if at all, 🤞 and, like °F and °C at -40°, his IQ meets his age. *ba-dum tsk* A below-average human, one of our greatest. Everything he touches suffers a painful loss of grace. He emanates sleaziness, living the vapid life in a place called 🙌 Mar-a-Lago.. Ah, and he's the president of those pesky 🇺🇸 United States! Being it twice, even! Oh this, our timeline.. 🥭🥭
In spite of his fleeting redundancy, we can't not talk about him. Some refer to him as the 🍊🍊 Tangerine Tyrant, but there's no tyrant here, unless, of course, of the tiny kind – a toddler with a penchant for temper tantrums. No tyrant, no empathy, no skills, no love – nothing really! A confused man full of petty entitlement and grudges. A grifter, perpetually on the run from his own failures. 🍊🍊 Aware of some of his traits, to be sure, but only on a verrry base level, within the mindcage of a 🐀 rat, lashing out at everything, misguidedly thinking it a distraction from his shame, defeat, and confusion.
Truly sad, no? As I said, I often feel for him. Just briefly, because his ugly mug alone quickly repels all compassion. The Mango Mussolini, some call him! Again, too much of an honour; or a dishonour to Mussolini, maybe, and 🥭 in any case 🥭🥭 all 🥭 the mangoes. 🥭🥭🥭
When will he be gone? His sidekick, JD Vance —
cba to find a picture of that asshole, nor
to find out how to make a proper Markdown CommonMark? mere footnote of
him — at first was thought could be even worse to lead this.. husk of a nation,
but would he, really? 🤔 Not like the Mango Mussolini gets to pull many strings,
after all, if at all. A façade, a puppet, oblivious of so much of his reality.
Not all that many strings would be left for JD to pull anyway. He is a draft dog, as my beloved mother might call him in some Flemish: the spineless thing you lay on the floor against a crack under the door to block a draft. Only passing 🍊🍊🍊 for a windbag like Donald f* Trump for now. (Yes there was an opportunity for a puny pun right there with the draft, but still, CBA I SAID! for this dick. Not worth the bytes. 🥭 Bits.)
And he clumsily ridicules himself by his mere being less than Don 🥭 the Con does, which makes him more fun to make fun of. 🍊🍊 To be ridiculed and ignored into oblivion, thus ending this Foxy Anglo-Saxon murrrdoched nightmare once and for all. 🍊 Once and for all.. 🫥 May God not save those asshats in the meantime. At least; but maybe, just maybe, drop a lightning bolt 🌩️ and a bucket of elephant 🐘 dung on them. In reverse order, or at the same time, not gonna be 🥭🥭 overly picky here. 🍊
Where did the internet shiiiit button go. 😔
🇺🇸 & 🇧🇪 ⤑ well have I ever!
Ohh my, oh man. 😏 This guy done did. Did what? Not quite eat the rich, but certainly kill one, in a movie-like fashion, in broad daylight on the streets of Manhattan. Shot one Brian Thompson, C.E.O. of an American health insurance corporation – by definition making (lots and lots of) money from (thousands of) others' misery. 🤷
And for now he got he seems to be swimmingly getting away with it, too! 🙂
Not even his name known yet.
Awkwardly mixed feelings abound, because what injustice, exactly, has been done, with bullets inscribed with meaning? Seems to be a pertinent question for everyone, save, perhaps, Mr. Thompson's loved ones. :l
Will he be missed? Is the world worse off without (people like) him in it? Does this grief carry equal weight compared to your loss, or mine?
Morals and ethics stirred – good people, questionable deeds.. In that regard it reminds me of recent local news of an entirely different kind: a highly esteemed public figure defies rules and disdains lives by driving drunk. 🍺 Do as I say, not as I do. “Oh the humanity”? Zonder zonde, de eerste steen? Wazige zaak!
Here, too, our conscience makes awkward leaps and bounds, and our moral compass behaves erratically. We struggle to make sense of a confusing world of reprehensible and good people, bad vibes, and bad things and good deeds.
Luckily our very own VRT has a pressing matter pop up to curb our confusion! “Hoe werkt een botsabsorbeerder”?🤦♂️ Orr, eh – well SOME moral! is direly needed from this story. And sought, and found: “Ook verstandige mensen doen domme dingen”. "😅"
“Morbid glee” appeared to be the upshot of the Anglo-Saxon matter. The Flemish.. Not quite sure. “Sardonisch gelach in vuistjes” is an unpolished mouthful. “Povere boel” in any case. 😏
On 9/12 Luigi was finally apprehended. The story not yet finished, but quite the.
🦄 ⤑ AI: highly artificial..
..and of questionable intelligence – the mere word here is absurd and inappropriate. There is literally nothing intelligent about AI, it generates. 🤷 Regurgitates what it's been fed.
Its generated regurgitations arguably are quite something – it can be asked for beautiful pictures, say, and the LLMs make for impressive haikus (†), possibly great programming advice, email drafts, gift ideas for your dad who loves fishing, you name it. Impressive antics and magic tricks 🎉 but often, without warning, oblivious and shamelessly it will “hallucinate”. Really, “hallucinate”? More improper antro.. anthropom.. – humanisation. It almost sounds pardonable – poor overloaded ChatGPT, just couldn't handle it anymore, someone find it some benzo and a pillow.
Sadly its quirkiness may be the manifestation of an inherent inclination toward shittiness. Making matters even/far worse, like the sad crypto craze, AI gobbles up obscene amounts of energy. Someplace I read one Midgard-generated image makes for a fully charged phone. 😞
So what good will it bring us, and at what price? Speaking of price, since silly amounts of money are involved, we are made to embrace (potentially highly disruptive) technology. Microsoft would even have it dabbling in your computer. 😀 (Fortunately “everything is designed to remain local and private on-device”, what could possibly go wrong.)
So much resources that could have been devoted to matters more pressing, like world hunger or nuclear fusion. Once again homo ecophagus doubles down on frivolous destruction without too much consideration, reckless with his future, reassured by hubris.
(†) Great haikus – except, of course, when ChatGPT totally confidently
miscounts syllables. 😶 Please note that counting is something computers are
good at by their very nature, it's in the name; and that haikus by their very
definition consist of a precise number of syllables.
And then this supposedly intelligent piece of software unflappably offers you
a broken haiku! Eh.. 6 syllables? You tell it it's wrong – get 8 instead on
another line. Again you tell it it's wrong.. It will merrily acknowledge its
mistake, apologize for good measure – and, unruffled, continue! to produce
broken and proper haikus alike.
To be sure, it will also keep apologizing and promising not to make the
(rather grave) mistake again, but won't stop making it! over and over again.
Rubbing faux- and proper haikus in your face.. Downright farcical; and what does
it imply for its output in general? How can you ever trust this thing..
