Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 05/10/2026For some reason I was watching a doc about Nostradamus that claimed a man in a blue turban would blow up the world. Orson Welles narrating maybe? I thought about that for years afterwards. 010
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Overturn any rock in this administration and you will find a seething, slimy mass of corruption. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 03/10/2026What if “the aliens” are just AI from another past civilization waiting for this planet’s AI to develop to the point that they can link up? 🤷🏻♂️ 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Good question. I always leave early trying to beat the traffic. 010
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 21/09/2026We are paying for the refunds on price hikes that we had to pay. It was double taxation on the American people. 🤯 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 16/09/2026“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational." - Guess who 0261
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Point taken, but $150 billion in medical debt seems pretty light. 201
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 12/09/2026To be fair, I wouldn’t fellate Donald Trump 1 day for $200,000. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 10/09/2026“We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections." That is our prez, folks. No subterfuge attempted. 010
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Pretty sure this is the lineup I’ll be forced to listen to in Hell. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 02/09/2026MapQuest still lists Lake Ontario properly if you find you need a pivot from other map apps as I did. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Not sure it’s a coincidence that the initials for Social Media are S&M. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 02/09/2026The short answer is yes, but that’s not the complete answer which is maybe where the profundity comes in. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Ah, well that may be too depressing for me to think about right now. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Lots. The American Rescue Plan. Capping prescription drug prices at $2,000 per year for seniors on Medicare. Imposing a 15% minimum corporate tax on corporations… 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026It won’t be me coming for you. You should direct your vitriol at the ones who actually would. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I blame Kamala not going on Rogan more than I have ever blamed the trans community. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I’d rather not, but winning elections is a numbers game and I would hope the trans community would realise that. The Arab, Black, and Hispanic communities didn’t and voted in the worst presidency in American history. 300
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I don’t support it, I’m just don’t want to alienate the independents who make a difference in elections. The MAGAts are hopeless. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026If the republicans “get rid” of you, I at least tried to prevent it even if you saw my tactic as wrong. 300
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I’m not saying don’t support it. Im saying don’t talk about it. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026And actually a poll that week had Americans right at 50% support. Clearly it was strategic as he had previously said he was against (which was also a political calculation- I doubt he was really against). Btw, Americans are currently 70% opposed to trans athletes in women’s sports. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026One last question, since you seem to discuss in good faith unlike so many others on here- if you were republican would you rather run against a dem opponent who is making trans women in sports their hot issue or cost of living that trump said he’d bring down and hasn’t? 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Logically, that argument should work. But a lot of Americans will get ginned up on nonsense again. It’s best to just not bring it up and then have the discussion once in control. Think of how Obama handled gay marriage. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Not all of them will show up to the polls next time. And shaving another % or two matters a lot. What republicans do understand that dems don’t seem to is that winning puts you in the position to make the changes you want to. Losing while fighting the good fight is still a losing. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Our focus should be how republican corruption makes the average Americans life costlier. That’s what average jane and joe cares the most about. That’s how we win. 200
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Over 70% of Americans are uncomfortable with trans athletes in women’s sports. What’s popular about that? That’s the issue I raised. Not the right of trans people to exist. Hopefully the overwhelming majority agree with us on that point. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026All because I think dems should focus on bigger issues than trans in sports. You people are children. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026So, I disagree with your framing but I’d like to applaud your actual discussing this and not just attacking me personally. Some people just like yelling. It’s pretty unproductive though. 200
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Firstly, I don’t think you know what giddy means. Secondly, I’ll never vote republican. You’re just trolling now. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Republicans don’t care about human and civil rights. Let’s get the people in who do care then we can hash out whether biological men should compete with biological women. It’s not a winning issue in the general elections though. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Ok. Don’t vote for dems that keep this issue off their platform and just enjoy what the republicans continue to do to anyone different from them. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Agreed. And it cuts both ways. The shouting over such minor issues feeds the imbeciles on the right. Tuck the issue away until we’ve regained control of govt. 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026What I said is to shelve this relatively minor issue to save democracy. I get it’s not minor to you, but big picture-wise 9 people in the sportsworld is small potatoes. 200
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/20269 athletes being denied the opportunity to play sports with a certain group (they can still play elsewhere!) is nowhere near calling for their deaths. 200
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I believe both of those are losing propositions so you’re asking the wrong person. 200
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Just would rather see dems in power than republicans. There are only two choices. Once dems are in control we can hash out trans people in sports. That’s my whole argument. 000
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 01/09/2026What camps are you talking about? All I have said is that dems shouldn’t focus on trans people in sports. There are bigger issues. You don’t believe there are bigger issues? 100
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Yes, it’s a real culture war for people like us who care about trans rights. But sad to say we’re not the majority. They get distracted by “us and them” arguments. We need to focus primarily on the issues that they care about (that also affect us) and win govt. back. Then we can focus elsewhere. 300
Madwit @madwit.bsky.social · 31/08/2026I understand that not everyone can see big picture strategies. But that’s ok, we need the more myopic also. Everyone has something they can contribute. 200
