Holy shit the cowboy bepop soundtrack is way better than I remember, wtf this is unreal.

"Oh no you can't 'touch grass' because you live in an urban environment with no vegetation or trees or grass or anything? WELL then touch concrete, idiot."

People can say what they want but the real US left is developing rapidly. People are falling into different communist strains of thought. Orgs are exploding. Lenin lives

2026 has been the worst year of my life. 2025, a close second. 2024, coming in third. 2023, [...]

Bernie served his purpose in radicalizing millions, now he's a relic of a method of political participation that has long shown its face to be completely useless

Smarmily going, "uhm you know the cat can't read your replies when you say 'hello' in the comments, right?"

I've realized that I basically don't know anything about China, so I've started reading en.people.cn just to get a picture. It's interesting.

I am a little more sane now.

HOLY SHIT IT'S ONLY MONDAY!?

I take history for granite. No, this isn't a pun—give me your chunk of granite now, loser; else I'll teach you a lesson about who writes history

Don't mind me, I'm just singing Stevie Wonder songs in my room. Alone. Oh, what's this? You've brought your synthesizer to complement my contralto? Well, if you insist...

The Club Penguin Generation is rioting in the streets.

The vast amount of money that was made from buying and selling human beings still exists today. We’re surrounded by it. It sits in the bank accounts and investment portfolios of the rich who’ve touted it for generations as proof that they work harder than the rest of us.

Instead of screaming "AHHH!" throughout various points in the day I am now switching to moaning "ughhh."

The solution is not more discourse; some people need to be given extensive wedgies on national television. Broadcast. Live.

Started using an internet blocker while I write and holy shit I'm actually getting stuff done? Why have I never done this before??

New world is struggling to be born, time to perform a C-section.

The fires of hell would not burn hot enough for these people.

I remember it was such a shock to me when I learnt that we don't live in a democracy. I was like "wuhhhhhhhh no way, that's impossible. I mean look at all the ways I can participate in society: (1) vote, (2) .........., (3) ...........

*Feels lonely 👎 *Goes on Bluesky *Reads about all the awful shit going on that I can't change without mass organizing *Feels despair, feels anger *Feels less lonely 👍

Is it just me or whenever I search something and click the first couple results, it's some AI-generated website with the same style and formatting?

The Internet Discourse of the day flutters its eyes at me. I avert my gaze. "Temptation leads down a dark path," I mutter to myself. "You will not get me. Not ever."

I can't stop thinking about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. the US has been enacting unimaginable violence around the world without consequence for 80 years. this is just the mask off era: justifications are no longer felt to be necessary. the form has changed but not the substance

Kafka's The Castle but it's a hospital waiting room and I've been here all night waiting for a 5 minute doctor's appointment.

I fucking hate this guy and I voted for him because I thought anything was better than Poilievre. The competition was between a neoliberal and a more overtly racist neoliberal; both of whom are basically fascists. Fuck, I hate this fucking country. As I always say, Canada is America with maple syrup

Ah. ah. ah. ah. ah. ah. ah.ah. hahahha! H.aa...ah.

People talking about the violations against the "rule of law" need to get their head out of their own asses and smell the roses. Do they actually think this thing we call "the law" ever applied to the bourgeois who write it? How can you live in this world and be this naive?

Fuck.

Some dude in a toga asked me if I wanted to take over his shift at work pushing a boulder up a big mountain. I said sure, why not?

[me watching Nuzlocke videos and playing Stardew] I'm having an enjoyable time right now. I wonder what's happening on Bluesky right now? [OhgodOhfuckOhShitOhFuckThere'sNoFuckingWayWhatTheFuckThatCan'tBeTrueOhItIsOhFuckTheseMotherfuckersFuc...] Hooboy. Well. Time to plant some tomatoes!

When a book opens with a map, that's when you know it's a good book

It doesn't feel like a new year. As others have pointed out, it feels more like we reside in a timeless hell dimension where the clocks have all shot themselves and their gears are strewn across the ground like shards of glass. Things change; nothing ever changes. Careful where you step.

It's so interesting how a single book which, for example, has a 3.2/5 rating on Storygraph will have a 3.8/5 rating on Goodreads (owned by Amazon) and a 4.5/5 rating on Amazon's website. Why is this the case?

For me, "growing up" meant one thing: unsubscribing from Kurtzgesasdsjagt (looking up the proper spelling) Kurzgesagt.

Hold on, how are there people on our flat earth who are already wishing each other happy new year? It's still 8:00. This makes no sense....

Oh haha, "CBT" is both the name of a popular form of psychotherapy and a sex thing. So when you're joking about how "CBT has really helped you," you're making a witty double entendre. Ha-ha. Very funny. NOT! As a critical psychologist and sex historian, in this essay I will—

At midnight today, it will have been 2016 for the past decade.

To quote Goku,

If I ever stop posting for a long time, it's probably because I've been hit by a car and am now dead.

Thank you Bluesky for helping improve my conciseness. Writing a post, cutting it to smithereens, only to build it back up again to reach the exact character limit. I am reaching unseen levels of brevity and wit 💪

It just occured to me that if you have a three-book series, and mention a Chekov's gun in book one and have the metaphorical gun fire in book three—no matter how stupid the gun or thingamajig—readers, such as myself, will eat that shit up. Literary distance obscures stupidity.

Reading Lenin taught me how to properly use "i.e." in a sentence and that was the greatest addition to my writing; the semi-colon being a close second, of course.

Is Hinge a "dating app" or a "mechanical bearing that connects two solid objects"? Which is it, WIKIPEDIA!?

It's called Heated Rivalry but it happens *on ice*!???

I'm playing New Vegas again for the second time after 5 years. I think it's interesting playing the game (as a teenager) versus now as someone with a more coherent political ideology.

wish they would just say UBI and universal healthcare “won’t work” bc keeping people sick and stressed and scared is the only thing allowing me personally to rob them blind

Gyms should be MUNICIPAL.

I remember reading somewhere how lonelier people take longer, hotter shows to mimic the sensation of being held by another human being. Now is it true? ..................Yeah. Yeah.
