So on Thursday, I put up a post full of creepy pictures of Steve Bannon, just for the heck of it. The very next day he was booted from the White House.
Who knew I had such power?
Anyway, here are a bunch of creepy pictures of Sebastian Gorka I made with the help of DreamscopeApp. (Click on them for full-sized versions.) Will lightning strike twice?
Good idea, but I’d make a voodoo doll too, just to be safe.
I learned from the manosphere that correlation actually is causation, so this seems pretty scientifically sound to me!
I like the background on the “fire and fury” one.
Apparently, Bannon has declared war.

Good. Let them eat each other.

Bannon versus Trump.
After all is said and done,
We win either way.
Gorka! The power of David compels you!
Omg! I suggested that on another thread! Lmfao!
According to Juicebro Theory, if things happen at some point after you think them, it means you have Juiced them into existence, bro.
OT but really funny
Donald and Melania Trump to Skip Kennedy Center Honors

Translation: We’re afraid to go out in public!
(Cackles gleefully)
David, I have complete faith in your power to boot villains from their positions.
Can you do this magic-picture thingy with Trump and Pence next?
Thanking you in advance.
Could you curse Robert Mercer with bizarre pictures?
He’s the billionaire donor who supported Trump when most others were uncomfortable with his erratic behavior. He assembled a large circle of political operators, most famously Bannon, to sway American politics during the early 2010s. When Trump won, Mercer pushed a host of those people into White House positions, the best-known being Bannon and Conway. Mercer is also the link between Trump and Cambridge Analytica, the manipulative tech company that pushed Brexit, helped get Trump elected, and, like everything else Trump-related, has ties to the Russians.
The New Yorker did a long profile of Mercer, and it is really scary: The Reclusive Hedge-Fund Tycoon behind the Trump Presidency. It’s amazing how many ridiculous right-wing beliefs he has adopted or supported.
In things you can’t unsee news (I’ll put it blockquotes, so you can avoid needing to unsee it):

Oh yeah it does look like what you described. I feel like there’s a message in there but the commentary escapes me.
I got Dreamscope and I can do it! Hold on….
I’m workin’ on a photo of Trump & Pence at the moment. It really takes a while to make these things. I should get the paid version.
@Axe
What’s the alternative, keeping a penis unleashed? No collar, even? That’s just irresponsible.
That leashed penis; *Eugh!*
Thanks….uh….Axecalibur….
@Oogly
Perfect encapsulation of the Trumpocalypse: Dweeby neonazi lorded over by angry, barely restrained dick
@Petal
With this administration, might could use a muzzle on that thing too
@Axecalibur: Middle Name Danger
Perfect.
@ SpukiKitty
Well, I was being rhetorical, but if you feel like it, have fun. I’m not big on these weird images, but I really wish I could lay a curse on these people.
Can one point me to a primer on how that particular people is an horrible person ? I didn’t heard of him yet, unlike Spencer or Devos.
I would like to second @D’s recommendation on the NYT article about Robert Mercer.
If you are unfamiliar with this person, this is the thing that leapt out at me when I read the article.
(@Ohlmann, @D has a link to the article this is mentioned in)

I know it was a sort-of joke but I figured, “Why the heck not?”.
*Oogh!* The guy’s like a cartoon villain. He also thinks “weak” people shouldn’t be “strong”. The hell with growing and climbing the ladder! If you’re dirt you’ll always be dirt.
What an evil excuse for a human being!
Also; My Dreamscope is still taking HOURS to made that Trump/Pence pic! THE HECK?!!!
@David, you should do this on Thursday, since the CEO in chief always fires people on Friday.
And don’t forget Gorka’s equally evil wife.
Since Randian Objectivism is so near and dear to so many Republicans and their backers, I would HIGHLY recommend you read the devastating takedown of Atlas Shrugged by Adam Lee on Patheos. It is a long series but SO worth it for the impeccable refutation of each and every one of Rand’s premises.
Awesome! Thanks!
I’m giving up on the dumb Dreamscape think for now. IT’S TAKING TOO DAMN LONG!!! HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CONVERT ONE STINKIN’ jpg FILE INTO “JEWELED BIRD”? HOURS?!!!
I have never been able to force myself into reading much of Rand’s “philosophy” — it has never seemed to me that a society based on pure (or nearly pure) self-interest could actually work, unless your vision of a self-interested society was one in which peace and justice abounded, which does not seem to have interested Rand.
But I have a question: can anyone think of another female writer whose readers and fans were so disproportionately male?
