The stuff going on with Dread Central is wild. A writer releases an article wherein she has receipts of bullying, harassment, and extremely poor management practices. DC says nothing. And now has a new owner? Bizarre.

Craig: "In my district, 2 days ago a special ed teacher pulled into her school parking lot, her windows were smashed, she was taken & detained for 12 hours. I've never seen such an out of control agency. That's why as soon as I leave, I'm joining a group to file articles of impeachment against Noem"

Amazing how quickly the pretext for invading a city just falls away. The circular justification in Minneapolis is now “we are punishing the city for resisting our punishment.

HuffPost has obtained a video of a physician trying to give medical care to the woman shot and killed by ICE agents today, and not being allowed to go near her. The ICE agents claim there are medics on site, but witnesses scream that there are no medics present. Full Story: bit.ly/3YwbaQR

The Far Right cult in America is truly insane

Matty Z @mattyzaddy.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

So America just invaded a sovereign country and captured its leader. Absolutely fucked up. Maduro is not the issue— he's a prick, but his own people could lead their own revolution.

How cringe was I when I got engaged? I hired a guitar player to play SLIDE by GooGoo Dolls when I proposed. 😂 God so embarrassing

Unsubscribed to Shudder... which made me sad, tbh. But I honestly use it maybe twice a year in earnest?

If you’re the EIC of a place and you get called out for being a weirdo, do you think blocking the person you attempted to bully is the way to start the fake apology tour?

Today was such an odd one 🤔

Matty Z @mattyzaddy.bsky.social · 28/12/2025

Was just at the building gym to run a 5K on the treadmill, where we only have two treadmills. Both were taken, so I wait my turn. -st person leaves, clearly not going to wipe it down for the next user (ie, me) so I ask if they're planning to do so. They acted like they had been accused of murder.

Any fitness person advocating intermittent fasting is an instant unfollow. Get your bullshit outta here.

God, 2025 was sure weird right?

Also, Loop earplugs are the best gift I could have ever given my sensory disorder self

I live alone and I spend a *lot* of time on my own so I speak to myself very, very regularly and sometimes when I make a decision I'll look around left and right and say out loud "is that ok with everyone? yes?," and then I go on about my business

2026 needs to be the year we avoid ragebait on social at all costs. We need to literally ignore the rants and raves of the cult that now dominates America. We are giving in to them every day, and we are only making it worse. We're all arguing with bots and cult members— neither are persuadable.

I don't post much anymore, but as someone who had a podcast previously on Dread Pod Network, none of this is surprising. Good people like Sharai deserve better than strange gatekeepers like these... and certainly people who understand what management actually looks like. What a shame. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So in my continuing adventure with dating apps, I signed up for The League, which I had never heard of, but at my stage in dating it's always like, well might as well give yet another one a shot. This app is insane. So confusing... and check out the upgrade options 😂 One of them is legit $4,999 🤡
