FFS, everyone remember:
Every single word that falls out of Trump's mouth is an admission of personal guilt.
He's completely unable to keep something to himself

He keeps everything he can get his greedy little hands on to himself. And he accuses others of every single one of his crimes. He doesn't care if you believe it, only that it will help his supporters disbelieve the truth about him
But I don’t. I have never played golf. I have no desire to play golf. I never played golf while working remotely…I never even thought about it.
This is insulting - not because he’s saying I’m lazy and don’t do my work, but because he thinks I would play golf.
If I wanted to be lazy and not do work while being remote, I would play video games like other civilized people. I have some self respect.
Why would I spend a ton of money to go out in public and play golf, when I can stay at home keeping that Teams icon green while playing videogames and watching mid-week Europa League fixtures?
Source: currently home sick, but feeling good enough to clock a few hours of required training and data backups.
It is the absolute truth when I say to you that the green Teams icon is one of the highlights of switching my work machine to Linux.
Once we got the clear from IT to dual boot (just had to match the hostnames to our Dell Service Tags so they could still identify the developer PCs on the network), Teams became a webpage in Firefox just like the rest of the Microsoft applications. So even when we are all in the office, it is totally normal for somebody to show as being idle for the last 10 minutes or the last hour.
There's one guy in another country (team is split between two continents) that has clearly set it up so that he's green 24/7, but everybody else is mostly "idle" because we aren't doing things in the Teams browser tab. It's nice to just not worry about it, especially on days I work from home.
Gosh that sounds lovely, especially the Linux part. Actually, mostly the Linux part.

You just reminded me that I have to do my annual sexual harassment training. God damn it 😩
Trump and co haven't ordered sexual harassment training to stop? I'm genuinely surprised.
No, it is training you how to sexually harass.

Right what makes Trump think I play golf. Maybe the occasional putt putt. But golf nah.
VR mini golf is where it's at. Hehe. There is a course on walkabout mini golf that is officially themed to the movie "the labyrinth", some pretty crazy holes on that one, especially when you get to the MC Escher stairs scene with the baby. It's fun trying to hit the ball from a completely different perspective. Not to mention all the other courses that are also awesome. There are a bunch of free built-in ones, but special licensed ones like that, of course, are DLC. But the DLC courses are only like 3 bucks, so kinda whatever. Playing each course once is more than worth 3 dollars, let alone if you are gonna play them a few times. Only the host of the game needs to own the course, so it doesn't fragment up the user base.

Take the upvote. You beat me to it.
I’m actually just about to tee off I’ll pick it up when I get back ⛳️
Does anyone remember how much golf trump played during his first term? I seem to recall it being a lot, like maybe more than any other president.
He had more unscheduled time per day than any other president along with:
I honestly thought it was more golf, but he might just not be that athletic.
If I recall correctly, it was literally a full year of his "presidency."
I meant to reply to you with this comment. https://sopuli.xyz/comment/14793507
So not quite a year... but not far off from it.
And he spent more in 4 years on golf than I have made in my entire life time.
Roughly 50x the average lifetime earnings of people with master’s degrees

261 rounds across a single term, but not more than any other president. Woodrow Wilson played somewhere around 1000-1200 games according to different sources I read. Still, it's definitely worth noting that Trump's golfing this term has already cost more than some of Musk's cullings, to the tune of around $10.7 million.

Obviously the pattern has always been whatever he accuses other people of being is what he is himself, so when are we going to just call him what he calls other people? A lying, blood poisoning, shifty, ugly, authoritarian, with low IQ, tears in his sleepy eyes, bitch. All sourcable, although I can't be bothered.
It's like he has a team of people who's only job is to look for ways he can make himself look ridiculous. I couldn't look this stupid if it was my full-time job.
Someone needs to make a small, printer-friendly version of this that could be printed on stickers and posted on supermarket shelves.
Someone should plot the price of things (eggs, gas, the Big Mac) against the (date-referenced) count of times he played golf.
Every accusation is an admission with these guys
Honestly his accusations should be court admissible evidence at this point
First sitting president to ever waste his time going to the fucking super bowl.
He's going to Daytona or whatever too. The guy is a complete goldbrick.
First sitting president to ever waste his time going to the fucking super bowl.
I mean, Presidents have been going to sporting events practically since they were invented. The Seventh Inning Stretch came out of Calvin Coolidge showing up incredibly late to a baseball game. It's crazy for someone who needs the security detail of a President to get into and out of a location as insecure as stadium box seats. But that's more a logistical hurdle than a cultural one.
Its the genocide I object to. Its the concentration camps on the border and the bombs dropped across the Middle East. Its the gutting of health care and mass transit and financial regulations I find disconcerting. Going to the Super Bowl is the least bad thing Trump's done since taking office.
It's the hypocrisy that's being pointed out here. We are being flooded with hypocrisy and dishonesty. Your priorities are of course in order, but we shouldn't become numb to the hypocrisy that was the hallmark of tyrannical monarchs.
It’s also the costs, those little trips cost tens of millions extra to pull off, while they’re presumably carrying about waste and fraud.
The point is that this guy is the asshole at your job talking shit all day about how nobody else is working when they're never fucking working. That's what the story is pointing at.
I can -- and do -- hate the guy for other reasons, but he's a fucking goldbricker pretending that nobody else is doing their job.
same thing, same stories as 4 years ago, and even after over a million covid dead from this fucking asshole's inept pandemic response, young democrats didn't vote, stupidest shit i've ever seen in my life
The moron brigade has decided to blame COVID on Biden instead, since he was President during the worst of it.
Which is the mental equivalent of blaming the firefighters who spent four hours trying to save your house from burning down, instead of the arsonist who spent four minutes starting the fire.
Which in itself is dumb because Trump was president that first covid year (2020), which was the worst of it!
I can never tell reality from the onion anymore.
Satire is dead.
Golf is not for the peasants!
Projection, again? They would never...
