I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.
It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.
Everybody saw this coming.

In after Baud. Damn.
Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Bark louder, little dog.

@Jim, Foolish Literalist: They’re really amping up the meanness now. I’m not complaining…good to see the gloves coming off (I LOLed on the Kellyanne Conway dead-soul-and-hair line)

Adam, that video you posted is nothing compared to this vid. A guy made a portable Tesla gun that shoots three foot lightning bolts you can actually touch. Then they recorded it at 28,000 FPS.

I got to take a trip in my friend’s Tesla last year. Sweet ride, and we even had a super-charger or two on the trip.
Electricity is in my veins, yo. My dad was an electrician, and I sure shocked him! Also, our son built his own Tesla coil for an art project in college. Plasma is purty.
