Jokes on you I already fucked myself

Hopelessness and fear are their weapons, because they need you to do the work for them. You don't have to be naive to feel hope, and you can be fearful but let it not control you. I get doomy myself sometimes but a few things keep me grounded:

Ugh fuck this is going to kill people!!

Like trump didn't call in the generals. Hegseth did. Trump was informed by the media. I've heard conflicting reports whether Miller or Vance are involved, and we'll probably never know really. But it's not like Trump is at the helm and it's open seas and according to plan. Dude barely knows the day

I hate that we are so behind but it is objectively awesome news for the climate and humanity if China eats our lunch on renewables. I am no expert but personally don't understand why everyone's so obsessed with beating China at everything so I'm fine with this. If they actually do this, excellent.

He's right, and the worst of all are the ones bitter about their mortality and determined to cause pain on their way out.

I have the knowledge to talk about: 1. Art (techniques not history) 2. Arrested Development 3. Pink Floyd But I do not have the attention span to talk about anything for 3 hours

A political party that was serious about defeating fascism, strengthening real democracy, pursuing justice and promoting the common welfare could do a whole host of effective things before sending us each 7000 texts a day asking for more money. But that’s what they think their job is!

And you continue the pattern when you tell people the Dems need to start listening to "the groups" or "this is not the hill to die on."

Look he's generally on my shit list but this was the exact right way to respond and it's time some other people in positions of power learn this fucking lesson

In all seriousness, it is the height of illegitimacy to be governed by a demented pedophile who institutes taxes because he feels like it and indicts people he doesn't like via tweets. It's time for states that do not wish to be drug down into the Third World to discuss secession.

I have never found a portrayal of Christ more relatable.

How not to illustrate the similarity of bone structures between humans & horses.

I often criticize the Dem leadership, but this one strikes me as a good approach.

I don't understand how a significant portion of this country continues to see this giant diaper baby who never shuts his mouth and complains about everything as an exemplar of masculinity

Kash Patel will literally tweet evidence to jeopardize an active investigation but will tell you his hands are tied when it comes to releasing the Epstein files.

Jesus Christ

Many ICE agents should suffer huge criminal and civil penalties for their official actions during the Trump administration just serve as an example and to scare others away from ever acting this way in the future.

My parents said I would never amount to anything if I became a wife beater who spends his time hurting women, but jokes on them I just joined ICE for a bunch of bloody money

It is not a coincidence that most of the videos you see of ICE agents using excessive force seem to feature unarmed women half their size. 🙃

feeling this again today

Well I do the insides too but hey BOOK COVER ARTISTS QRP with your book covers 📚 #BookCovers

And here's my final post in this thread giving an overview of my themed pet portraits! I love working on these because they are an expression of someone's bond with their pet - probably the most pure and uncomplicated love there is. I'm always open for commissions so holler if you're interested!

Some pet portraits are more about personality and vibes than what the actual outfit is. Usually the owner tells me about the personality of the pet or their role in the family, and we come up with an idea together. (And sometimes it's really about the personality of the owner)

I'm a reporter not a political strategist, but one answer to the question of "What can the opposition do?" is "Use the extraordinary investigative powers members of Congress have even when in the minority to get new information courts and journalists can't get."

"You are paying taxes that will be redistributed to other people" sounds like a familiar complaint from the right! Also he never makes good on these types of promises bc he won't fight Congress about it so he just goes "well EYE wanted you to have the goodies!" because he just wants credit

Trump is absolutely cratering in new Quinnipiac poll: Overall approval: 38-54 Approval on economy: 39-56 Approval on trade: 39-54 On National Guard into cities: 42-55 On immigration, his "best" issue: 41-55 Trump is weak, unpopular, and failing. Treat him that way:

The mad king wants his war! How many times am I gonna have to be right

Does anyone know the owner of the Prytania/what they're like? Would they air this?

Just doing tech bro psychopath shit

When someone asks me what living in New Orleans feels like, I’m going to point to this video.

When you remember McDonald's breakfast isn't 24/7 anymore

PANCE

I will NOT boycott anything to defend this asshole

I guarantee this flip out and the one about the teleprompter are because he was embarrassed from being laughed at after speaking to the UN general assembly

Look, Biden deserves hell for his support of the genocide. The (very lapsed) Catholic in me cringed every single time he said he was “a zionist”. But I believed him. He believed in that and followed it straight into doom. I don’t know what Harris believes, or even if she knows.

Elected office is not an entitlement and having members die of old age in office is failure of party discipline.

I think the silence from Arab voices.on this day was a turning point for me; like I knew then there was no chance she was going to say the right thing on Gaza and that element of the voter base was lost.

Pop culture icons are always fun too!

Calling people Nazis = causing violence Being Nazis and doing Nazi shit = no violence caused It's clear he is saying that what Nazis do doesn't count as violent, only stopping them is.

Ugh never meet your heroes (or read their social media posts)

The suburban millionaires who serve as, as @patrickwyman.bsky.social put it, American gentry and often are the car dealership owners, are a plague on this country. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

writing "self defense" on all my ammo just in case anyone ever asks me any questions that are already answered by the ammo

Schrödinger's Shooter exists as both a deranged leftist motivated by dangerous rhetoric AND as a misunderstood troubled youth who needed Jesus until the waveform collapses

"Write something anti-ICE on the casings so it looks like Democrat leftie pinko commie did it" "Anto-ICE you got it boss"

Huh weird so regulation that affects your bank account directly just happens to cause the end of the world! Wow what a coincidence!

Yes I think as painful as the transition is for some, it's better for humanity on the whole if we're not given the power or deference we've been given since WWII ended.

This is a time worn tactic in the conservative-adjacent motivational speaker/business mindset/MLM speaking circuits. You mix in your ideological or scammy advice with some sensible (if obvious) advice to get people to more readily accept the thing you care about.
