I don’t actually believe there were any literal golden toilets, but rather that the term was a hyperbolic description of pork barrel spending. It’s basically a meme from last century.

This article casually mentions it https://www.chicagotribune.com/1992/08/30/everyone-knows-about-the-pentagons-gold-toilet/

but sadly it’s paywalled… here’s another though

–look at that date! that article is almost as old as ME!

If they made Elliott Roger a meme (for being a pathetic ineffectual piece of shit) this can be a meme.

Fucking REAL honestly!!! Any adult on that service is FESTOONED in Red Flags.

I stay the fuck away from it specifically because of all the pedophiles on there. Whole place gives me the ick big-time.

If I had excessive amounts of wealth, I’d seriously consider buying the entire thing just to immediately shut it down, except I know the predators will just find some other way to stalk their prey.

Shit, maybe it needs to be a Honeypot. If it IS one, it’s still not scraping enough scum, and its very business practice is inherently predatory too even WITHOUT the rampant child sexual molestation; it siphons labor out of children too.

Probably because it’s been downscaled from its full resolution.

Also rotated for some reason from the original? Or perhaps just rendered from the same mathematical sequence with some parameters swapped. Here’s an uncompressed one:

there are a lot of pieces that use one pixel per color too! you might really dig what people can do with it: it’s honestly astonishing the kinds of arrangements they can make just by mixing the colors.

not to mention how much of a profitable racket the democrat machine has built on losing elections.

Ever seen “The Producers”?
“It’s possible to make more money with a flop than a hit!”
(if you flop, nobody cares where the money went)
Well, with the democrats,
It’s possible to make more money with a loss than a win.
Because when their campaigns fail, all the money that was raised disappears into the wind.

Gone to “consultancy contracts”, “speaking fees”, “ad spending”, and probably a few other golden toilet seats.

edit: it occurs to me that the term ‘golden toilet seats’ might not be as ubiquitous as i once thought.

So, it was kind of a meme in the '80s, '90s, and '00s that there were budgetary line items especially in military spending that made no sense whatsoever, like “toilet seats” that allegedly cost hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars.

They were labeled as innocuous things toward which it was hoped no scrutiny would be drawn based on their description…
but no actual toilet components or accessories were actually involved.
It was a fraudulent book-cooking tactic to obfuscate what those funds were really being spent on.

Similarly, the United States Agency for International Development did do some legitimate work helping people, but SOME OF ITS PROJECTS were given green-washed and rainbow-washed code names, such as:
“HIV/AIDS awareness campaign on foreign university campuses”
where the work had nothing to do with actual disease awareness
and was actually recruiting students and radicalizing them toward anti-government sentiments
as a destabilization tactic.

(basically miniature CIA shit)

USAID also directly funded various news outlets around the world and “through the implication” influenced what kind of coverage they published.

It’s ironic that musk’s absolute dipshittery may have accidentally damaged the united states’ soft power imperialism. like, he might’ve actually done the world a net favor by total accident, with the unfortunate side-effect of some rather conspicuous tragedy and hardship in the form of people who were being legitimately helped no longer receiving that help, for instance in food supplies and vaccines…

The account was since banned, but looking into it, it appeared to be an impersonator account that existed to assassinate the character of an actual person named Danica Jefferies and in reality had nothing to do with her.

I’m guessing some virulent fascist with an ax to grind regarding some of the actual person’s journalism-adjacent work.

Looks like the admins have removed them! Like literally right now! Whew.

yeah it’s … pretty clear they’re a troll account–but also quite possibly running smokescreen for Schrodinger’s Racist: Whoever is operating this account, they’ll hide behind the excuse that it’s a “parody” or “just a prank bro”. This is likely just their attempt to shift the overton window of the spaces in which the account is operating rightward so that lesser racist and fascist activity doesn’t seem ‘as bad’.

i expect they’re using at least one VPN proxy so that the forcible excision of this account is less likely to trace back to them.

edit: oh shit. it just occurred to me that this may in fact be an impersonation-based character assassination.

The profile is linking back to other social media accounts under the same name, but it’s entirely possible that the account is not actually who they say they are, and are acting as disgusting and repugnant as possible so as to ‘expose’ the REAL person for views and opinions they may not even actually have.

this fails to capture the grades of saturation.

Here is every color in the RGB (#000000-#FFFFFF) color space arranged sequentially on a Hilbert curve (but scaled down to 512x512)

A dozen, a hundred, it’s impossible to tell.

i always felt weird about it. for me it never quite rose to levels of ‘the ick’ but i can totally understand how it might trip past the threshold for others.
