I am predicting new apocalyptic bingo card items dropping…
☢️ US president 3rd term.
☢️ Judge Judy appointed to Supreme Court position. They unilaterally dissolve entire 47th presidency off from record.
☢️ Linguist scientist discovers “ocean language”. It is fully developed over eons and the first translated sentence they reveal is, “the walmart shrimp was intentional”.
☢️ Skinny Pop brand popcorn voluntarily recalls everything. All popcorn is pulled months later. Corn is now poisonous\venomus to human dna.
☢️ A new color is discovered. Turns out it’s because we did something to the sun. And the sun didn’t like it.
I’ll stick with the standard, ad-supported 2026. I don’t need another subscription.
It’s honestly not that bad outside the US. (For the developed world and even many places of emerging economies)
Yeah there’s certainly more shit going on than usual, but it’s not exactly anything strange in consideration to the past 100 years.
I think it helps waking up feeling “meh” and then seeing a news feed from the US and immediately appreciating life. If it weren’t for that, I’m sure we’d all be collectively complaining a lot harder rather than seeing it as just another cycle of “rough times”. It helps that most other nations work together. There’s division, but nothing like in the US.
Ive been trying really hard to get out. It is expensive and my family wont play ball (we could get citizenship from past relations, but it is time sensitive), so i probably have to do it the long way.
How can I put it… First the shit rises to the top, and then this shit from the very top poisons everything below.
So trickle down actually works? TIL
Yeah, that’s the concern. But this has happened so much in modern history that the world is starting to put infrastructure onto the possible pathway of life without the US. If it happens, it’ll be fine. If it doesn’t, even better.
Whatever happens will be read in the history books of developed nations, hichever they may be. Just like it is now for any other of the many empires in hustory—granted, they usually last much longer.
But we’ll have killed our climate by then and the planet will get a nice little break before the next sga, so doesn’t really matter.
I’m glad the US shitstorm could make some people feel better. That’s the silver lining. (Not /s)
Eh, it’s in our tribalistic nature to be positively voyeuristic to the drama of other tribes. Developed nations are notably the best at it. Heaven forbid anyone step in and help.
I do my part by leaving obscure messages on obscure ocial medi platforms. Banking up my thoughts and prayers for ,“the big one”.
Edit: Also, please be aware of my drenching sarcasm, irony, and general defeatism if it weren’t obvious 🤣 It’s all a shame it be like this, ain’t it?
It is indeed
I quell the rising panic by getting baked and watching game shows from the 1970s, so I’d say I can run as long as the power, internet connectivity, THC, and money to pay for them hold out.
Have your pets spayed or neutered.
I should’ve gotten Canadian citizenship while I still could.
Same. Did you pick your Canadian nickname? Mine, I likened “Gimme”. I knew a cool gal from White Rock with that. A local hockey goalie, when the Olympics came through her town they let her carry the torch for a mile (or km) or two. Jokingly the full name is Gimme AdownhillbikeandBtitishColumbia.
They’re good people.
I don’t want to fucking wake up anymore

Still a better option than facing it head on.
