    Cards Against Humanity purchased the Texas property in 2017 through a campaign involving around 150,000 supporters, each of whom contributed $15. The land was acquired as part of an effort opposing Donald Trump’s proposed US-Mexico border wall.

    So crazy that this bit is still relevant today.

    Now watch as someone who has enough money to not give a fuck about anything for the rest of his life (and a million lifetimes after that) give a fuck about that

      That’s a potent symbol, but we’ve advanced quite far in the “removing People’s heads from a distance” department. No need to risk being tainted by the splatter.

        I’d be cool with a modern interpretation of a guillotine. It’s the end result I’m after.

    I am so so tired of pieces of shit. Really. It seems like they just keep on winning and they never get true consequences for their actions.

    Just saw a post recently about the wife of Anthropic’s CEO meeting with Epstein. I mean, it is always the same pieces of shit rising to the top. They are all in the same tribe. Just being pure evil for their own benefits. And it works! They just keep getting more “powerful” and “richer”. We never revolt. We just keep giving them more and more money and power. It fucking works.

    Society just broke me. Humans suck, we suck.

      You have to change your perspective, and understand that the story is still being written, and we are only approaching the end of the first act.

      The second act will start with the Midterms, and that’s going to get wild, as MAGA desperately tries to gain full control of the American population before 2028. If they don’t, they know Act 3 starts then, and it will get VERY ugly for them. But understand that the second act often ends with the good guys in a precarious situation.

      So keep your cool during the insane second act, so we can get through it, and have a great third act, with a happy ending.

      We’re still writing this story, so don’t give up yet.

      There is a cabal of people who truly rule the world, not the illuminate, but they all are kid diddlers. It’s a powerful expression to them of power to rape children and beat them. No better way to boost one’s fragile ego than hurting someone who can’t stand against them.

    I didn’t bother to find out what you get for the $10 to “join the committee”, I just know a lot of people will drop that on it because it’s funny and ten bucks is reasonable. lol. CAH is fucking smart and I love it.

    For those of you who play this. I make a lot of cards every few years as the inspiration flows in.

    Here are some that are inspired by the last 2 years.

    Feel free to drop your own ideas.

    I have a lot of expansion packs. I go through and pick out my outdated and unfunny cards.

    Print new text on paper and tape it over these cards.

    I use that “invisible” scotch tape as it’s also removable.

    Cause sometimes my texts also gets outdated and not funny anymore.

    Here are some I made about 10 years ago. With that taped method. Some of these are still funny too.

      These are genuinely very funny! I’ve seen quite a few official and unofficial expansions to CAH that are generally so so, but these actually gave me a good laugh. Nice work!

        Hey thanks. I aim to entertain!

        I keep a note on my phone and add ideas as they come until I get a decent size list and then I share it.

        Quite a lot of these older ones are from real life experiences or stories I heard from other people. Few from reddit popular stories. Like two broken arms and the safe.

        Black card ideas are always the hardest to come up with. Sometimes I think I have a good one but then it doesn’t play well.

        I used to buy a lot of the expansion packs and found that most only had like 3 or 4 cards I thought were funny so after accumulating a large stack of bland cards, I got the idea to just recover the text with something fresh.

    He does have crepe paper skin and hates being insulted.

    But, it’s all ephemeral to him, he gets pissy about it, then goes and snorts enough ket that he forgets his own name, and then goes back to the status quo of thinking he’s the smartest man in every room

    “Official Elon Musk is a Sad Little Bitch”, Elon Musk is gonna look at this and think “Yeah I am the misunderstood genius of this century, just like Tony Stark. Sucks to be so clever god damn it”. Yeah, he seems to be that delusional.

      Narcissists have to think like that, or they’d off themselves. It’s a defense mechanism. WE don’t have to abide it, though.
