hexbear.net/@FlakesBongler@hexbear.net help me out here I swear I remember a line that goes something like:

watch as I [do trick] using only this [stage object] and a common [obvious tool for the job].

but I'm drawing a blank on frinkiac.

[cling to power] [paranoia?] [wide support of the electorate]

Oh wow, my brain keeps going to Johnny Carson lifting the car over his head while singing the aria from Carmen but I don't think that's quite right

Maybe this?

Shit, I shouldn't have taken those edibles earlier, my brain is failingkitty-birthday-sad

It sounds so familiar, it might be from something else

If it's Futurama, I can check Morbotron in the morning when I can focus for more than three seconds

Just because we are out to get you, and in fact are very open about this, it doesn't make it ok for you to say it!

[-] Speaker@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

We're out to get you, constantly broadcasting this fact, putting out bounties for your capture, and literally kidnapping you and you're mad at me?

What do you mean there is no evidence of the CIA trying to topple his leadership when the CIA literally toppled his leadership??

WHAT MORE EVIDENCE COULD POSSIBLY EXIST...?????

I was thinking more along the lines of

"Well, Mr Malloy... it seems the cat burglar has been caught . . . by the very person . . . who was trying to catch him!"

"How ironic."

How convenient for you to paint this picture that is now real berdly-smug

[-] Pastaguini@hexbear.net 24 points 1 week ago

I think that’s on purpose - I read this as the writer saying, “for years Maduro sowed (at the time) baseless conspiracy theories about the CIA. Trumps bumbling actually proved him right.”

[-] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

No you see, because we failed all those other times, we weren't actually trying.

The convenient boogey man that is real and actually trying to ruin your life

Is the CIA in the room with us, Mr. Maduro?
