heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

I had too many Gardein Chik'en nuggs last night and now have a tummy ache. I blame @pupgir.bsky.social for this tragedy.

Emergency rally against Fenway Health's capitulation to Trump today at 4:00. The institutions that are supposed to protect us cannot toss aside Transgender people to protect LGB people. We are all in this together.

Holy shit! Of all the possible Hermits, SCAR was the Ore Snatcher?! That is too funny! I thought for sure it was Jevin.

My therapist sent me these anti-capitalist affirmations today. Based. Going to try to remember this every day.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Don't photograph anyone else at a protest either.

New: hackers just doxed hundreds of DHS, ICE, FBI, and DOJ officials. I went through the data. In many cases does look legitimate, sometimes includes residential addresses. “Mexican Cartels hmu [hit me up] we dropping all the doxes wheres my 1m [1 million].” www.404media.co/hackers-dox-...

If you don't have principles, you can't be a good person. If you are willing to abandon your principles to "win", you can't be a good person. If you think the end justifies the means, you can't be a good person.

Decolonize Russia

My cousin has twins who the whole family called Felony and Misdemeanor growing up. To everyone's shock, neither is in prison yet. *Yet.* I'm talking about you, Felony. We all know it's just a matter of time.

Anyone who puts carpet over hardwood floors is a monster.

Watched my cat try to swat a gnat outta the air for a few minutes before just reaching out with her mouth and eating it mid-flight. Could she do that the whole time and chose not? She is a weird, fascinating little creature. I love her so much.

If I put standard multiplication in front of my kid, they completely blank out and struggle. I put multiplying fractions in front of them, they blow through it like it's the easiest math they've ever seen. How is this possible? HOW?!It's so fascinating yet perplexing.

If anyone out there knows where I can buy a copy of The Age of Scorpius, PLEASE tell me. I need a physical, original copy of this book. Audra Winter really lost the opportunity to take advantage of rubes like me that's morbid curiosity will willingly give her money for a flawed copy of her book.

There is something strangely satisfying about building Legos while watching Minecraft videos.

Every single app is depressing as fuck lately. Including YouTube for the most part, especially now that Hermitcraft is going on a well deserved break. Like come on, internet. Can we please have some semblance of joy in our lives?

With all the tariff bullshit on top of her health issues, Bibi needs all the support she can get. I can & do personally vouch for the quality and value of her goods. I encourage people to tip, since she has to undercharge to compete with inferior mass manufactured dreck.

Bump, my friend increased the goal. They got harassed and kicked out of their space, they found a spot and need to put down a security despot ASAP! Mutual aid! If 1% of my followers donated, you’ll help house some QTPOC folk!

My kid is as obsessed with the Age of Scorpius disaster as I am. Why? Because they wanna be a writer someday and say this will teach them what not to do with their stories or how to act if criticized. This is a child with ADHD. If they recognize something's wrong, then a 22 yr old had no excuse.

Has it been long enough that we can start making fun of Charlie Kirk again without getting banned? The bitch is buried, so it's not like he can voice his opinion on the matter.

I *NEED* a physical copy of The Age of Scorpius! Someone, for the love of everything good in this world, tell me where I can get one! I can't find any for sale, and it might literally be killing me. Please point me in the right direction to get my hands on it.

"Books like Age of Scorpius is why I don't read indie books." I'm going to stop you there homie. I got 4 words for you: Fourth Wing and Twilight. I rest my case.

Yay! I wrote three times this week instead of once! Maybe I'm finally getting back in my groove.

Some people would argue that by this document, we've been experiencing the early warning signs of fascism since at least 9/11

My kid was complaining that ever since MatPat left, the Theorist channels have really changed. "They just don't take the big, crazy risks on their theories like they did before he retired!" I think this was my kid's first, "back in my day" moment, and I find it hilarious. They grow up so fast.

I ate an entire block of barbecue tofu and have absolutely no regrets.

Bluesky used to be fun. This place sucks anymore. I just wanna talk to my mutuals and look at pretty pictures. There are no safe spaces to just be silly and enjoy ourselves or offer a respite from the category 5 shitstorm of the world. I just want one damn safe place, but fuck us all it seems, huh?

You Leftists just believe whatever you want instead of looking for trustworthy sources like the federal agency run by a qanon guy and a podcaster that answer to a pedophile with dementia

so hey, with the entirety of the FBI in a fevered state to find any shred of evidence that THE TRANSES and THE FURRIES caused a political assassination, keep in mind that discord isn't private its backend is available to people that hate you, your servers aren't private, your DMs aren't private

Watching a ton of small/new festivals crash and burn, and I wonder what made these people think they can run festival. Like if you personally can't throw your own wedding without an event planner, you can't run a festival. Hire someone who knows what they're doing, so you don't fuck people over.

By jr high we knew almost every teacher's political views, and we weaponized it by knowing if we brought up certain topics some would go on long rants, getting them to waste class time. It was incredibly fun.

Hey, I know books are expensive and money is tight right now. But if there's a brand new book you really wanna read — including my own Lessons in Magic and Disaster — you can help get the book into way more hands by requesting it from your local library! It's easy! Check your library's website.

Another important point to make is that while vaccines reduce your risk of infection, they don’t stop it 100% and therefore it’s helpful to wear a mask any time even after you are vaccinated, as it provides you with an extra layer of protection.

Just read the indictment. Gonna guess this is the most detail we get about why this happened. Presuming these messages weren't some sort of misdirect, he hated Charlie Kirk because Kirk was hateful. Honestly doesn't sound like he had a super clear idea why he inscribed the memes on his bullets.

You know someone was a truly beloved hero when the president has to threaten to put people in jail if they don't mourn loudly and performatively enough

The whole thing with Charlie Kirk really does confirm what I’ve long suspected about right wing assholes: They want it to be illegal not to like them. It’s the same reasoning as incels but for everyone’s attitudes towards them, not just women.

The Alien franchise uses science fiction to answer the question: what if a wasp got into your car?

This account is compiling a list for conservatives to go after that it accuses of murdering Kirk. They claim identifying nazis incites violence but accusing people of murder for not performing sufficient sympathy is fine.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

I led Marmotur into the heart of Mount Doom,

This is the kind of shit that people like Charlie Kirk say are "acceptable consequences" of rampant gun ownership. The beliefs of this school shooter and Charlie Kirk's beliefs are of the same vein. These events are not unrelated. People like Kirk stoke the fires that people like this one act on.
