Only human arrogance would assume the message must be meant for man.

It was very sad how little time it took for this trash to break containment and reach my mostly offline conservative relatives

It’s strange how many guys follow electric car news pages just to rant in the mentions of every post about how they’ll never buy an electric car. Fine? Then don’t.

I can never make fun of anyone for being scammed because I once preordered a fiesta cat plushie.

I think they should just have the courage of their convictions and admit they are conservative.

Another example of why there’s no “agree to disagree” on the fundamental dignity of people. Unless the social penalties for being a bigot are massive it will just keep getting worse.

Open homophobia has always been bad, but my God the replies under pride posts on Facebook are unreal. There are bots, sure, but there are also lots of real people perfectly comfortable spewing the most awful shit using their real name and photo. They have zero fear.

You ever say something out loud just kind of in passing then sit there feeling like you’ve been hit by a truck? Because that’s how I feel after this. Don’t do this to yourself.

I’m scared my brain is just like this now. Don’t do that to yourself. Find things to enjoy. You don’t help anyone by making your world smaller and darker.

A dangerous trap I fall into: believing that witnessing horrible things means that enjoying anything is immoral. It’s not. It’s just punishing myself for no benefit. That kind of thinking has ruined so many things for me: movies, tv, games, books. It also makes me exhausting to talk to.

I am looking through old family videos looking for clips for my dad’s celebration of life, but I’m too busy editing random clips of other family members to look like they came from an ID channel documentary.

Arnold Schwarzenegger had an incredible run of iconic movies in the 80s, but I’d argue his last decent project was True Lies. Even then I don’t think it’s great, there are just some fun elements mixed in with the mess.

This guy phones in to my favorite Australian radio guys, Hamish and Andy, and yells about apples. It’s incredible.

If you are not allowed to identify the secret policeman responsible for a crime, you must punish all secret policemen.

I was going to list out some trek actors who are underrated, then I remembered Robert Duncan McNeill exists and my brain core dumped trying to come up with something positive to say.

Spiner is a better actor than he gets credit for. I hate his hammy shit, but he really should be more prominent as a character actor.

Data really was a doomed character idea. I don’t think many actors could play Data without it reading as a joke. Spiner was so good you forget how silly the whole thing is. It’s just a guy caked in body paint who doesn’t know how to round down!

Someone is still vandalizing the free flu vaccine signs outside of my local grocery store. One of them has been kicked all to shit, and another is now just missing entirely.

There are so many phony service animals around here. Dogs with absolutely no training or capacity to behave themselves being dragged through Walmart with a fake SERVICE DOG harness from Amazon.

My instinct is to always make myself small and unseen, has been since I was a kid, so I’m trying to take a moment and breathe before I do anything, but man the shame is just palpable. I hate being from here so much some days.

My problems are tiny, but I am having massive guilt about the international travel I have planned. The thought of showing up places like Mexico and Brazil given how this country treats them and talks about them is just…God. A big part of my lizard brain wants to cancel it all and stay home.

You should see what Scottsdale is like. Men and women with, well, let’s say cosmetic decisions I would not make.
