I think Bill says a lot of arrogant things and doesn't listen so well, but he certainly does a better job than most to unmask the Scooby monsters on the other side, the country heals when the right wakes up. Colbert, Kimmel, Fallon, none can get an audience over there, Bill's work is necessary.

How about one step further, we would all have a better life if people just stopped lying... For any reason... just stop, it brings nobody anything. Believing women would be automatic.

The desire to provide for your family or even feeling a failure to not be able to do so has nothing to do with machismo and everything to do with love of family. Many mothers feel the exact same pang of guilt and failure when they also cant provide. Let's please not cancel this human evolution yet.

Maybe instead of dehumanizing immigrants we use proactive methods to transfer their credentials from where they studied into the US workforce in their focus and skillset and then they wouldn't have to take the only pay they can get by doing the job of dehumanizing immigrants.

Send refugees to small and medium towns. Bringing their culture to where it has a much lower chance of interaction enlightens the receiving nation's collective understanding and it also forces the newcomers to integrate as the pool is too small for them to insulate within their own kind. Win/win/win

I have been getting blocked very consistently for months now and all I do is comment and repost and once in a while put up my own posts that are all middle of the road. I have no idea how to address it... There is definitely a "trust the accuser" algorithm going on here.

A bit more constructive dialogue could be nice. Sometimes it just feels like everyone raging against a machine but the machine isn't here to know it's getting raged at.

0% federal loans to small businesses for CNC laser and plasma then if you actually give a $hit about Canadian value added steel products. Helping CN and Bombardier isn't enough. Covid killed the Canadian entrepreneurs that sponsor local kids sports and community service clubs, we all use steel, help

True. The reality is most dudes also reject guys like that too. They blame women because they are morons, they are lonely because nobody taught them how to be loving and civil regardless of whether or not they find the other person attractive or vice versa.

You are right, the laws were put in place in the 30s and 40s, but the work completed through the 70s-90s. There is without a doubt the biggest greed demographic in history currently within the boomers, but it is not generational universal. There is way more generosity amongst them than in my peers.

Jon Caften @joncaften.bsky.social · 17/07/2025
Agreed. However rooting for all males to be unhappy because they don't deserve to cure their loneliness specifically because of their gender is a position that is very discompassionate. Hating on all instead of those who actually are assholes will potentially lead to Kaitlin's own loneliness.

You haven't met enough good men yet Kaitlin, they still far out number the horrible ones. Generalization is the core of why women have been oppressed; Some shithead men treat them like women instead of fellow humans.

It's #WorldSnakeDay! I'm sharing my marker drawing of a rainbow boa that I did for Chinese New Year this year. 🐍 #SciArt #AnimalArt #FineArt #Copic #Illustration
Detailed marker illustration of a rainbow boa portrait. The snake's head is shown over a loop of its body, with a dark blue to black background. The snake is burnt orange with black looping patterns, and has rainbow iridescence on its skin.

@0nidania.bsky.social What is the game? Announce your intentions if you have a spine, maybe someone else will agree with you. This trolling stuff is just weird, why join a social network to be anti-social, you can do that by going for hike, a bike ride or a swim.

The creation of the internet yes, the pollution of it is my Gen X peeps. The Rural Electrification and Interstate system was built by boomers. I don't know why our generation and younger try so hard to demonize our parents, most of them had a work ethic and commitment to community that dwarfs ours.

Bonds were meant to help society move towards a common goal because those who could afford them would get reasonable returns but would also get a stronger business environment or community. That bond interest became the main motivation of these programs undermined the capacity to impact positively.

True, but it is real world convenience that we would probably be able to afford to maintain if our taxation strategies weren't now so protectionary of publicly traded and/or financial services entities. They were less population with less efficient construction methods yet still afforded building.

Somehow this Carina Wolff person can put me on a red flag list but I can't ask them or Bluesky why? I guess bluesky has a "always believe the accuser" position? All my content or shares are pretty middle of the road and yet I have been blocked by lots of people, I don't get it.

If laws on the books of No Duty to Retreat ("Stand your ground") are as legal as any other law, if an individual posing as an ICE officer tries to breach your peace without identifying themselves it is legal to murder them where you stand. This will start happening a lot more I think.
The premise of your right to not have your peace breached means you may use lethal force should you feel threatened. ICE agents may soon find themselves legally shot in the face obscured by their masks.

I think as a fellow YouTuber with over a million dollars worth of produced content and less than 250 subscribers it's fair to say YouTube is not even part of human evolution anymore. I get about 20:1 A.I. suggestions in my feed vs genuine hard built content. AI cares not about overthrowing anything.
