I had a great image I was going to post here, then keep scrolling for the promised land of bathing birds. But I hit a wall. Remind me, as my TBI won't. Toodles. xx

Yes! Before I became too disabled to work, I happily paid for those who couldn't afford to go out with me, donated my time to shelters, my back & truck to moving others in need, and did not begrudge paying taxes for all sorts of things I didn't personally need/use. It's part of our Social Contact.

True, sadly. The Religious Right and The Heritage Foundation have been working on this for fifty years. I keep forgetting how vile a vast swath of Americans are. I suppose I've lived in areas where this isn't really the case, quite so much. Thanks for reminding me of something I keep ignoring.

The conversation is so old, that the $15 an hour minimum wage is outdated. Last year, to make enough to live on, it would need to be around $24 an hour. As of now, you won't be afford to cook anything with eggs at home, with that. Later in the year, when there's no fresh produce? Real hunger.

Absolutely. The thing is, AirBnB started out for a fun way for people to make ends meet. As usual, corporations and businesses have ruined it. They did the same to Etsy. If a person or company sells on Amazon because it's the largest marketplace, Amazon will copy their product & sell for less.

It's legal to pay disabled people less than the $7.25 minimum wage in 37 States: A lot of people can't afford healthcare or food, however many hours & jobs they work. Sweeping cuts by Musk ($8 Million a day in Government subsidies/contracts) mean people are being laid off with no warning. "MAGA"

But now, it seems some in the left think RFK Jr is acceptable, and fits with "our plans." In case you missed it the first time, if that includes you, you and I are done. I haven't been fighting Suicidal Depression for decades, just to sacrifice myself to your cause. Nor the racist oligarchs.

If you believe that he is a good guy to be in charge, unfriend/unfollow me now. Whilst I am no fan Big Pharma, if it wasn't for them, I'd be dead. He was claiming vaccines were somehow bad. Seriously, if that's your thinking do, kindly, sod off. 2/

If you support the current government or voted for it, history won't care what your reasons were. You only have to look back 80 years to see how you'll be viewed. You may think it's great that the government is being destroyed because it is deeply flawed, but you and your cause don't matter to 1/2

Anyone who says that RFK is good for America, because he'll somehow make the medical industry transparent, or for whatever reason, is a racist cockwomble.

Malicity D'Obscuro @malicityobscuro.bsky.social · 18/02/2025

Thanks. I knew the stigma of being disabled was massive already, but now Musk has subsidised it. So, today I need to get over this latest indignity, because it won't end with this. It didn't in Nazi Germany. And yes, yes it can happen here, FFS. 5/5

and I hate that I can't now. My late father referred to my being on SSDI as "sucking off the tit of society." Even now, that hurts. It's just more to carry, really, in a heart and mind that already feels so much guilt, shame and self-loathing. 3/

Being termed a "Parasite Class" member is just more fuel to add to the stigma of being disabled, poor, or in need of help. This is the sort of approach Nazis used to make the Jews, gays, Mormons, physically/mentally challenged/ill, dissenters and other people seem like "vermin" that Germany 1/

Oi, so if I want to follow IRL friends, & virtual friends like you on here, but you end up disappearing in notifications...do I cull whom I'm following, because the big accounts will pop up anyway, or is there a way to make some accounts posts appear first for me? Off to empty the leak buckets. TTFN

There has to be a better name than "predator," because in nature, those creatures serve a function. They're financial vampires, and that's an insult to vampires. There just isn't a term vile enough for them yet.

Fair play. The richest country in the world hasn't figured it out. "Number One"? My arse.

Malicity D'Obscuro @malicityobscuro.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

I hear you! That's part of it. But also that I keep up with the news means I need better meds! Happily, some guy who abused smack and coke for over a decade for his self-diagnosed "ADHD," with a niche fetish for dead animal play and a brain worm, thinks we shouldn't be on them. And he's in charge.

Haven't watched that, or Dumbo, or the Lion King. Even the death of cartoon animals was/is too much. I think some of it is just a reaction to trauma, but some is just good old issues with brain chemicals being on the fritz. Here are a couple of good animal memes.

I'm just barely able to watch anything with any sort of stress/drama/pain, even the most benign things. Even films I know well can trigger me, as I'm really not well right now. As a child, I couldn't watch Rudolf, as the bullying set me off. My mind hangs by a thread, so I'll wait, & maybe see.

She's just a symptom of Trump's Pathocracy, and what the Right/Heritage Foundation/Evangelicals/etc. have been working on for 50 years. The Bible is for thumping twits who wish to take care of the stranger in their own land, the sick, poor, needy, homeless and such, oh, and cherry picking.

They're why we can't have nice things. They used to watch where artists like me moved to, to buy up land in "bad" areas. Now they have algorithms. They took over Etsy, used AI to be "creative," knocked off any handmade items, & mock us for needing help, whilst they hoard millions in gov't subsidies.

Malicity D'Obscuro @malicityobscuro.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

JFC. It's "used to." Maybe pay actual humans to do the work, you tosser. The mediocrity of the slop AI produces will only get worse, as it's stolen from the best, and now is stealing from itself. Also, it has impossible body standards. Image 1. "Is that a hand in my chimera?" Image 2. Ouroboros.

I'm sorry, I thought Trump cancelled Black History Month? So, it's on again for pedos like him? JFC. Honestly, I'm glad my parents are dead. If you'd said any of this 20 years ago, it would have seemed impossible. Like the raid on Entebbe having so few casualties.

This guy was once banned from Twitter by Musk for posting child exploitation photos. He spread the crazy conspiracy that Hillary Clinton & Huma Abedin raped/abused little girls & used their skin as masks. Now he’s invited to the Trump White House. No words. You can’t even do an ‘Imagine if Biden…’

Americans don't want to think about what crappy "allies" they've been, historically. Over 40,000 UK civilians died in the Blitz, alone. Plus millions in Europe;. it took Pearl Harbor for the US to join. Only the US has dropped nuclear bombs. Seriously, it's going to regret this, one way or another

I have a PADL, Green Card & UK PP that need updating. I hope when they deport me for being on the SSDI I paid into, I can be put on a train to Canada/Mexico, & then fly from there. Any form of American transport is suspect now, but at least with trains, it's a shorter fall if it goes off the rails.

Malicity D'Obscuro @malicityobscuro.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

I'd rather be a member of the "Parasite Class," for being on SSDI after decades of work, than be part of Trump's Pathocracy. Bugger them all sideways.

And people wonder why America is now in lockstep with Nazi Germany. It refuses to teach even its own history, let alone Global History. So, the lessons of pathocracies will have to be learned in real time.

I think that Americans believe they are invincible, have been great allies, are beloved and admired globally, are "Number One," and on and on. They ignore lessons of even their own past, let alone those of the world. It's far easier to selfishly accept the propaganda, than see how wrong they are.
