Is their meltdown over Trump's SOTAK speech that toxic? Or over his shock-and-awe of train of successes?

I'm guessing it's Newsome having Charlie Kirk on his inaugural podcast and agreeing no men on girls' teams.

We appear to be experiencing unusually high traffic, which is causing the site to slow down and crash

In order to compensate while we investigate the situation, we've temporarily switched to registered members only, which significantly reduces the load on our database. Hopefully this is not a major problem, and we'll have an update for you soon.


     My guess would be spiders for LLMs. Naturally, the assholes think it's an attack, as if anyone gives a shit what 65-year-old pseudo-insurrectionary keyboard warriors think about anything.

I'm not seeing anything unusually obscene over there, just the normal level of obscene and stupid.
I think he is having some sort of load problem, earlier I was getting a lot of timeouts.

Entertaining thought to say the least. But with control at that level, I would do everything I could to protect that gold mine of stupid. There is WAY too much comedy coming out of that nuthouse, we don't wanna lose that source of entertainment.

I found it!  This is why DUmp land is shut down.
They are in a rage that some democrat congressman's kid lost their job watering plants at the VA. Bastards!

Elon hates plants!

I thought it was going to say please do not water these plants because they’re plastic :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Or maybe old senile Joe was going around watering them when he couldn’t make it to the bathroom :lmao:

USAID tax dollars were shut of to The DUmp and the shutdown is just a money drive.

With a money-laundering org or two in between, that's entirely plausible.

Is this a sign Trump, et al, did something really good again? Or did car repair insurance sales bots discover DU?

It could be or is gonna ask for some donations so he can send the server in for an oil change and a grease job to keep it from going down again. :-)

I’m surprised we haven’t seen him a old friend MVD doing a begathon in these troubling times :lmao:
