Takei is such a treasure, the sass is next-level!

What is insane to me is that I had to look at who wrote it to determine if it was a joke or if it could have been serious. It's amazing how many batshit crazy things people say AND BELIEVE IN THEIR HEART. This could be a new game show:

Serious or Satire!

10 years ago no one would have ever thought this was anything but a joke but today... They would never run out of material! Think "Jewish Space Lasers" for example.

They set the bar so high for dumb and insane shit to say that i feel like people stopped hearing it. Like fuck, the jewish space laser thing... Just how? In a real world someone would've escorted her out and be like: okay, we get it, pack your shit. But nothing. And years later, that lady is still doing it, and she still has her job.

The laser thing, it's just so out of this world! I actually dug deeper and and it's somehow connected to volcanoes. They don't actually exist, but those giant hills are actually from excavating caves for building Deep Underground Military Bases (D.U.M.B.S, you can't make that shit up). The lasers then shoot into the hills so then you have magma and shit.

This reads like somewhere out there, some random teenager got baked as fuck playing Missile Command and decided to troll that one asshole MAGA uncle nobody wanted to invite to Thanksgiving and things just spiraled completely out of hand.

He probably broke a few laws right there. Maybe another president would have been held accountable for faking a wewther report and causing panic, but it was just Wednesday.

Fox news lost its mind when Obama asked for Dijon mustard for his burger. For real.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I've had so many what the fuck moments with that guy lol, I'm really sorry that you US guys have to deal with this kinda stuff.

Is he back on Twitter now? I thought he jumped ship to mastadon.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

I think he might be on both? I got this elsewhere.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This post is also on mastodon. He seems to use it a lot.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

How do I find him on mastadon? And why in the mastadon app, when I enter the search box, my keyboard autocomplete doesn't work, like it's a password field?

It says the page you are looking for isn't here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's weird. Are you using the official app? If I search for a fake name, the message I get is "Could not find anything for these search terms"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

https://universeodon.com/@georgetakei is a direct link to his profile. I don't know anything about the app. I just use my browser.
