Uhhh is the answer absolutely nothing? Because we all watched a live stream genocide for the last three years and I don't believe a fucking thing has been done.

There is also the matter of the 13 year old so we can, indeed, get lower.

Things are far worse than I ever could have even conceived of in 2020. That's really something.

Zhou heavily misreading the room.

Why do leftists hold so much contempt for Liberals? It’s pretty simple: For example, Stephen Colbert lost his show for upsetting the current administration. Colbert did not have the courage to stand up for what was right when it didn’t seem to affect his life directly. He lost his show anyway.

I stand with the trans community no matter how the political or social climate may change, whatever inane threats may come from idiot administrations. I'll stand w the trans community like it's a cause that effects my own damn children. It doesn't (that we know of), but they stand with you, too. 🏳️‍⚧️

The prompt, 'write about a version of you that no longer exists,' led me to write about something I never have before: My Dad. By leaving a version of “me” behind, I’ve become more like him than I could have ever imagined: READ NOW - gaslightnation.substack.com/p/write-about-a-version-of-yourself

Latest @mattxiv.bsky.social ep w @naomiaklein.bsky.social speaks to exactly what I've been yelling! "Recently, some right wing pundits began to speak up against the genocide. Their math is like 1+3 (self interest) where ours may be 2+2 (dismantle systems of oppression)..." Read now: rb.gy/89w1mp

People need to understand that we have no progressive options between the Conservatives and Liberals.

Today commemorates the Nabka, which continues to this day as Palestinians remain, for generations, unable to their homeland.

How is this even considered controversial. Like, YOU can live your life however you like, but it has nothing to do with me.

This particular individual using his pregnant wife as a human shield is, honestly, stunningly poetic.

Right after The Drama reveal, my husband leans over and whispers, “is it bad that I’d already be rationalizing it?” I know the movie has complicated and insightful racial implications to unpack, but also, don’t bother marrying a man unless he’s your actual ride or die.

I'd like to say this carefully and be sure not to mince my words: In 2026, only an idiot would believe that "men are protectors."

Insane to live in a world where I get to cackle at this, then immediately get reminded by the next post that we're living through some religious fanatic end-of-time bullshit – and the kicker is that these two posts actually kind of have something to do with one another.

"For me, #Yesteryear fundamentally hit as a novel about patriarchy so violent it makes our mothers fail us. About the parentification of children, particularly girls, in a world that infantilizes women." READ: gaslightnation.substack.com/p/review-yesteryear-is-about-the-daughters #CaroClaireBurke

They have a media team. This was NOT the goal.

Ok well if she says so.

Is my religion suddenly... based?

If we have to pick a dad I'm picking Spanish PM Pedro

"Political analysis and reporting free of tribal prejudices." LOL

Meanwhile, will someone—ANYONE—define wokeness!!!!!!!!

Big bad men do big bad things and we talk about their "cognitive decline" as the reason. I mean this so genuinely: I'm happy for all y'all who don't understand how narcissists work.

Less than 24 hours later. Half done.

Yeah they do space travel in the Parable series too, so.

With the new floor crossing, I want media outlets to forget interviewing conservatives for their thoughts. I want to hear Liberals talk about why they think their party is so attractive to conservatives.

Have not been SOOO excited about a book in a long time! Pre-ordered #Yesteryear in January and raced to @massybooks.bsky.social within 5 mins of receiving the "it's here!" email today.

LOL being "well read" is not about psychotically binging Twitter posts and gossip rags.

@mattlieb.bsky.social I will never get over blood l'eyeball

So happy to see my ballot #1 take the leadership. We voted to see a true, progressive party build something new. I think I speak for many when I say we want to see a lot of @votetanille.bsky.social in the future too!

"Could I have taken him in a fight?" coincides perfectly with my recent rewatch if Idiocracy.

@jmcelroy.bsky.social I must petition to do the Kingsgate Mall write up. It will be 100% and entirely bias. I took a picture to commemorate my newborn's first trip there. My friend once said to me "you really love that place, huh?" And I do.

Lost me at "quantity has a quality of its own" LOLOL

Accusations of "purity testing" are the refuge of people with morals that are inconsistent or performative and principles that are actually just preferences that rarely survive personal inconvenience. They are also active contributors to things getting worse and worse.

@moiradonegan.bsky.social Help please! I'm trying to remember which episode of IBWTR you broke down the history of HR?

I'm working on a #Grifter series & have created a Rubric that evaluates juuuuust how grifty someone is. It's totally scientific. Who should get put through the rubric? gaslightnation.substack.com/p/dare-to-grift-are-they-a-grifter

Alright I’m fucking done. Shoot a woman in the face 3x + call her a fucking bitch? Get your dick chopped off. Rape a woman? CHOP. Harm a child? CHOP! Participate in a human sex trafficking ring in *any* way? CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! I think we’ll see a complicated problem disappear by lunchtime.

LinkedIn lunatics, hating children and the male loneliness epidemic are on notice. gaslightnation.substack.com/p/2026-in-and-out
