RIP Jonathan Joss

Just heard from Classic Swim. Victim of a hate crime. I'm disgusted and furious. He was amazing and killed for being gay. I remember him fondly from King Of The Hill, Parks And Recreation, and Justice League Unlimited.

Honestly this should piss EVERYONE off who hears it. Like some people even the official King of the Hill youtube have pointed out this is a good reminder of why we HAVE Pride Month still and how much things do still need to progress but it's also just a showcase for how there are still horrible dickheads out there who are fueled by hates for all the WRONG reasons.

And Trump has emboldened them.

Agreed. What Pete Hegseth did yesterday is proof of that -- and a Pentagon representative confirmed the move was intentional.

But Trump is doing this out of hate as well as toxic jealousy: of all the historical trailblazers he's railed against in favor of Confederate monuments, I think he has a real hatred of the fact that he's nothing compared to these historical agents of progress he so fixated on erasing. Because Trump is the only person who became president with absolutely ZERO record of public service in his entire life.

Joe Biden has a half-century of public service experience. Trump has experience in being a con man, racist, and adjudicated serial rapist. That's not favorable in the court of public opinion or in historical archives, and he will never be able to change that. So he spends his life destroying people to validate himself. But it's not enough for him. It'll never be enough. And that hatred will, in my honest opinion, end up ultimately destroying him.

It makes me sick to my stomach.
