Right. Sure. Keep shilling for daddy Putin, you’ll get your promotion for sure if you keep it up.

Fuck you, Russia STARTED this fight. Imperialism and capitalism are the god damn problem, and here you are enabling them both.

Ooh, a Russian troll! Quick, whack him with the hammer, they’re worth extra bonus points!

Damn you, McCarthy! Your imaginary list of communists doomed us all!!

Dennis! There’s some lovely filth down 'ere!

Do you like cancer research? How about fighting forest fires? Averting mid-air plane collisions?

DOGE sure hates all of those.

I think we’re headed for balkanization. We’re seeing the breakup of the USSR all over again.

This scene was actually drawn hastily as the shot itself was done during the crunch period of production, at the very end of the deadline. Be Our Guest was so immensely, terribly complex that it took a small army of extremely talented artists to pull off!

The pencil roughs of Beast’s human face were much more aesthetically pleasing, but it just didn’t translate to the finished cel.

With his talk of invading Canada, I’m wondering how much of that is to drill oil in the Arctic, and how much of it is to hunt down the people who ran away from him.

I’m hoping that JD Vance’s hamfisted lunacy shocks some sense into the German people. They need to know what the stakes are. They need to know that the world has its eyes on them. After all, they recovered and rebuilt after festering the last terrible fascist dictatorship that all others have patterned themselves after.

If Germany can shake off AfD and spank them for good, then we have hope.

A military force with a moral conscience would be nice. A revolution in America will be impossible without defectors, and a LOT of them.

We’re dealing with the most heavily armed police force in the world, the most well-funded secret police in the world, the most insanely overarmed military on the planet, and a citizen’s army of heavily armed zealots.

We have teenagers with winter boots whistling Hunger Games.

It is bleak. Trust me, I’ve been fighting this for ten years. Can’t say it feels good to have been right all along about what Trump is capable of.

But still, fight back, even in small ways. They want us to be too afraid to try anything, that’s been the entire point.

I can’t leave. They just made my gender illegal to put on a passport.

I might just be a cynic. But I think we just had our last free election. If I know one thing about Trump, I know that he is an honest liar. He will breathe untruths like CO2, but he always makes his intentions nakedly clear. He’s planning on invading countries. He’s already parceling out Ukraine like the West did to the Middle East during the Sykes-Picot treaty.

Give a damn about keeping the EU democratic and healthy. You guys might be our last hope when he finally slams the jail cell door and crowns himself king.

The revolution will not be televised.

I’m trans. I don’t have the luxury of ignoring it.

I have been fighting against this bullshit for ten years. I even got arrested protesting Trump’s bullshit once. Met some fantastic socialists and amarchists in jail.

Yeah, entertaining, isn’t it? Seeing that every warning bell that was rung was ignored? That every day I waved a sign or shoved a cop, was just a day delaying this from happening?

Has it all been futile? Have I wasted ten years fighting the same fascists my grandfather fought in WW2?

The scariest thing is that the only reason we haven’t done the violent uprising thing yet is because the only way it would succeed is if the military instigated the countercoup. We won’t survive under American martial law, and they’re bullbaiting us into giving them an exuse to kill and imprison us all. We must fight back, but we can’t fight back.

This is hell. This is hell. Never, ever, ever let it happen in Belgium. For the love of any god that gives enough of a fuck to listen, care about politics. Care about politics before they decide they don’t care about you.

Because in ten years, those of us who aren’t in prison camps are going to be starving and freezing. Take a good look. Take a good, long look, and be smart enough to get up and do something dangerous and crazy once in a while when it matters most.

Yo dawg, I heard you like documentaries.

People have been shitting on that lizard-faced freak since Facebook’s first flame wars between McCain and Obama supporters.

Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written.

Of course he does, it reminds him of home.

The eternal enemy of Dudes and Dudeism everywhere: Nihilists and Nihilism.

The Dude abides. ✌️

Much like the Dude himself, who is surrounded by people who are way too wound up in the world around him, you gotta remember. Sometimes, there’s a lot of weird ones, like sexy feminists who swing naked from ceilings to paint, or your whacked-out 'Nam vet buddy who’s just never moved on. And then there are assholes who piss on your rug, toe-severing German Nihilists, and rich old geezers who concoct kidnapping schemes to hide that he’s been stealing from impoverished kids. And, of course, fascists. Lots and lots of fascists.

Remember, the enemy of Dudeism is Nihilism. And fascists are, usually, either Nihilists, scammers, rug-pissers, or other zealots.
