I wouldn’t tell anyone I win the lottery but there would be signs

Good time in good airs

You should follow my girlfriend @marigo2thepolls.bsky.social

I feel like the whole thing just makes it really really clear that for some people "is this policy any good" is completely incidental to the actual goal of politics, which is being popular. "I will lobotomize myself and replace my amygdala with opinion polls" is staggeringly common

fusionist conservativism was a synthesis between social reactionaries and market fundamentalists and it has evolved into a redefinition of "the market" as "the system that reproduces reactionary social values"

"the charismatic guy promising to cut through the bullshit of democracy with raw violence, which will not actually solve the issue but will inflict enough fear to move forward on a solution" is uh not a development that helps *liberalism* historically

I wanna play too. Good inventive to Bluesky more

Been chillin and grillin

Yeah not looking good for Bluesky tbh

Trying to like it here but it’s just not the same. I miss mucking about in the trenches

@iamtherog.bsky.social already pointed this out on twitter but I am horrified to learn that elon musk is so fucking stupid he thinks "climate diversification" is a DEI measure

I think everything would have been fine had eve just eaten a few more apples

This is going to be a great learning experience for the American people

Happy national girlfriend day!

New coworker

The Frankfurt school is just scholasticism for ppl who only know German

The difference between Twitter, threads, and Bluesky is when I post a chart about real GDP per capita Twitter goes "doesn't matter these numbers are all faked" , Threads goes "is this adjusted for inflation?", and Bluesky goes "smh yet Americans work more than feudal peasants"

Someone get Peter singer on here smh

I think a lot of anti infanticide sentiments come from ppl not interacting with newborns enough. They only see newborns on tv where the baby actor is a few months in and already cute. You can’t honestly look into an actual newborns eyes and tell me there’s a person in there

It's in Spanish too! https://seul.ar/corporaciones-woke/

I feel like there’s not enough dipshits on this website. Who am I supposed to dunk on?
