'Bill Cassidy Can Go Fuck Himself' - Jojofromjerz [View all]

"Bill Cassidy can go fuck himself."

"And not in the lazy, drive-by, internet-comment-section sense where irritation clears its throat, mutters something impolite, and wanders off to microwave leftovers. I mean in the profound, soul-abrasive sense reserved for people whose cowardice arrives dressed as prudence, whose capitulation spends months laundering itself into something respectable, whose betrayal comes perfumed in physicianly concern and Senate diction while actual human beings pay for those choices in insulin rationing, delayed scans, emergency rooms thick with antiseptic, dread, and coffee burnt so dark at three in the morning it feels less like a beverage and more like survival dissolved into liquid."

"Bill Cassidy can go fuck himself so comprehensively, so humiliatingly, so spiritually inside-out that halfway through the ordeal he pauses, bewildered and winded, leaves a crumpled ten-dollar bill on the bedside table for himself, mutters, 'Keep the change, champ,' and shuffles away with the slow, nauseating realization that self-respect quietly filed for divorce sometime around the Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmation hearings."

"Because the grotesque thing about Bill Cassidy is not ignorance."

"Ignorance at least possesses tragic sincerity. Fanaticism has pulse. Even madness has the decency to commit."
