I took a step back from this app for defending Obama for not speaking out. I pointed out that the wannabeking has the evil in him to threaten even B. Obama's freedom. Got hit with verbal abuse. I am not clairvoyant for predicting yesterday. I just pay attention.

You need to stop focusing on the people getting the most convenient media attention and notice the ENORMOUS number of other folks working hard in the trenches every day.

There have been plenty of House primaries in blue districts. In 2022 Brand New Congress PAC ran a stack of candidates so need people to stop acting brand fucking new because David isn’t the innovator. I track shit on purpose. DNC officers never got involved and should never.

The phrase ‘just deserts’ has only one S. It has nothing to do with desserts 🧁or deserts 🏜️. The word ‘desert’ is spelled like🏜️ and pronounced like🧁. It's related to ‘deserve’ and means “reward or punishment deserved or earned by one’s qualities or acts.”

Oh, and by the way, it’s not illegal to obstruct random people with no identification or uniform from kidnapping people on the streets. That’s just being a good neighbor.

And then they shit on the artists who are actually revolutionary, only to insist they totally always liked them decades later when history vindicated them/they got dug up and turned into nostalgia cash cows as symbols of a bygone era.

maybe we should consider that just because something is published in book form rather than online self publishing, it doesn’t inherently has more value or quality. idk though.

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month. It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

There is no honor in making others struggle solely because you did. Persevering through difficulty is worth celebrating, but is worth even more if you can lessen the burden for those who come after you, especially those less fortunate, less privileged. That way lies glory.

Also, consider NOT calling TERFs the "b**ch" word. It just validates their entitled sense that misogyny against cis women is the only evil in the world. Call them "assholes," because they will smell bad until they clean themselves up. Call them "dicks": that's how they act and it will piss 'em off

Does anyone know of any mutual aid networks that specifically help people who are getting back on their feet after homelessness and/or help people whose pets have had expensive emergencies? One of my close friends is in desperate need of funds to get his cat back from an expensive emergency vet!

He had to be talked out of primarying Obama. He stayed in his 1st run for months after he mathematically lost. You trashed actual civil rights icons in his name. You ramped up the harassment in his second run & routinely & grotesquely threaten conditional allyship if anyone points out poor behavior.

My great uncle, worked the railroad and had scale models, would put a hole through tools and remote controls and tie these things to tables he drilled holes through. But I would be yelled at for suggesting he was on the spectrum by familial adults who completely understand the impulse.

I need people to understand that Barthes meant "Death Of The Author" to mean that authorial intent should not be the primary lens by which to criticize and understand a text; it has nothing to do with "is buying a book by a bigot acceptable" it is about LITERARY CRITICISM

For a sincere Catholic, having the frail, elderly Pope drag himself back from the brink of death to summon you to his office for remedial catechism would result in guilt so powerful that they would have to invent new physics to sound its depths.

To be clear, the narrative shift didn’t just happen, it required courage and action by courts, Senator Van Hollen, union leadership, protesters, reporters and, critically, Abrego Garcia’s wife. In the 1960s, civil rights leaders called it “dramatizing injustice.”

So after menopause, do women automatically become non-binary or do they need to file some paperwork? Because this bioesentialism bs is turning cis women into incubators by law at a frightening rate.

If you're a writer, research & write stories about anti-fascist resistance. If you're a game designer, make games about resistance. If you're a teacher, teach about the history of resistance. Every culture worker alive right now has a pressing responsibility to do this. Our lives depend on it

While there can be a conversation argument for bringing back extinct species this company has not achieved that result. They just made genetically modified grey wolves that may have some features that resemble dire wolves. Always good to be critical when it comes to tech industry hype these days. 🌎

No, the dire wolf has not been brought back from extinction
Colossal Biosciences claims three pups born recently are dire wolves, but they are actually grey wolves with genetic edits intended to make them resemble the lost species

“Why do you criticize the left so much?” Because the right wing are either dumbasses or demons and the Dems seem pretty married to bipartisanship at this point (though it does seem like their voters are getting disillusioned at this point). I criticize the left because it NEEDS to become viable.

It was a mistake to look at some forums and reddit in regard to the US tariff and Switch 2 pre-order situation. Good gravy. I know things are hard to absorb right now. But no, this isn't some grand Nintendo conspiracy, and no the tariffs aren't just going to be a lol/jk situation. Call your reps.

God is dead. The words flashed across the TV screen hanging above the bar. Some ad for a new game, Aylan thought absently, too engrossed in his beer to really care. He’d hear all about it from the kids next door, through the paper-thin walls of his apartment. The reality of the statement wasn’t something he really questioned. It just was. God is dead. Water is wet. Rent is due. It was background noise, those facts of life you don’t think about when you’re not three beers deep at some cheap bar that doesn’t even sell real food.
