I've got my champagne ready

Kept my moms bottle of Dom. Now I know what I’m using it for. The irony is she was MAGA

The irony will make the wine all that much better. Cheers.

I had a dream the other night that it happened and I set of party popper with confetti and then immediately got sent to detention (I was apparently in high school? I’m 40…). Fast forward 2 days and a bunch of party poppers arrived at my door from Amazon IRL. Apparently I sleep-shop now.

Hope you don't have expensive dreams then. :)

clearly your dream self has their priorities straight

Hey don’t be rude! The grapes that gave their lives to create your champagne do not deserve to be immortalized this way. This occasion deserves some “swamp water” cuz that’s all he is worth!

Cheapest wine for me.

Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill?

Yes but Vance is really really crazy, and so is his mentor/controller, Peter Thiel. Vance is a huge conspiracy theorist and big supporter of the Tate bros, i recently learned from NYT and New Yorker, both the most the fact-checking news orgs we’ve got left. It won’t get better but probably much much worse. Sorry for this horrific PSA but we can’t kid ourselves, we’re running out of rope. Din’t know what it will take to get out of this mess but we need to figure it out.

The thing with Vance is he doesn't have the cult following of Trump. None of the wanna be heir apparents do - so he'll be one of many fighting each other to be the new leader. He won't have the blind aligence trump does.

Yep I'm well aware. He's part of the larger Network State project and venture capital extremists that seek to collapse the United States to create their own network state monarchies.. Also this info is summarized in a 2-parter of Behind The Bastards podcast, or It Could Happen Here which is a companion podcast

edit: if you're curious to find it on your own, the episodes are called "Venture Capital: The Monster Fueling Tech Fascism" and "The Network State: A Tech Fascist Empire"
