whoever runs in the Biden lane in the 2028 primary is going to get obliterated

This reminds me of @leftistlawyer.com talking about getting complaints that she doesn't drive a nice enough car or wear nice enough clothing

I wondered how to portray them as both buffoonish fuckwits and losers, as well as monstrous killers, and I realize it's to portray them as hair-trigger murderers for the stupidest reasons, which they were, like their stupid answer to every problem is "kill it." Perfect opportunity for black comedy.

The crowd is LOVING James Talarico on Stephen Colbert

I'm suspicious that users with common or stereotypical Jewish names keyword searching to be crazy anti-Arab racist apologists for Israel aren't even all actually Jewish people but are just white Nazis doing a psyop to try to make people antisemitic

Israel apologists keyword search to lecture anyone critical of it regurgitating what they learned in school as if that makes them an impartial expert. Imagine if I took the KY public school history textbooks 100% straight and acted like an expert. Ones that said the Civil Rights Movement was rushed.

I'm sure we've all seen the graphic that lays out the United States ' relationship with slavery. It's good, but I never thought it was quite impactful enough. So I made my own. I've used a few key events, including my birth, to highlight how recent these events are in history. 1 square = 1 year.

I saw an EMS vehicle parked at a Steak N Shake and I thought "the beef tallow fries done gave somebody a heart attack"

Granting an ethnostate as reparations for any persecuted ethnic minority is a horrible idea on its face, because when that government inevitably has corruption, that corruption will be attributed to that entire ethnicity, because that government was formed in its name.

Since when did Pringles cans have Hebrew text on them

A logical step for Zuckerberg, a billionaire, who sees no difference between a person and program and no longer has any concept of respect or decency.

I just realized what Jared Fogle got arrested for doing was the exact same shit Epstein was doing, he was just a millionaire instead of a billionaire and that's why he didn't get away with it. Then I thought "he got too big for his britches" and I laughed out loud at my own fucking joke

I went for the salad instead of the falafel wrap with the deep fried falafels. Now I have a screaming craving for coconut bonbons at the candy shop. I know my body was expecting those oils and fats and now is upset to not get it. I'm negotiating to get chewing gum instead to cure the onion breath.

I saw a bike at the bus stop, and I was hoping whoever parked it there might have found a good place to lock the bike to, which would be very exciting for me since I also own a bike. But instead the bike's owner watched me from afar looking around it with desire in my eyes and was ready to fight me

One reason I'm self-diagnosing OCD is that I have a recurring thought that this country is a racist fascist dystopia right now because of a few times I was racist as an ignorant stupid little kid so this is all my fault. I know my brain just wants it to be my fault so that it's within my control.

I've been brainstorming for my novel since 2023 (it's fine if it takes years, it's my first book and it's largely so I have a project close to my heart to take with me through life) and now I'm moving on to the next notebook. I'm ending up striking out most of the first, I think that's a good sign.

Buddhism has a "thou shalt not steal" rule and it's phrased as "do not take what is not given to you" and I really like how specific it is. "Stealing" is vague by comparison.

I heard about the way in the Epstein files emails they talked about "jerky," and then I heard about the coded diary of a teenage Epstein trafficking victim who gave birth and then had the baby taken away shortly thereafter. I think Epstein and his buddies ate that baby and many others, as a delicacy

Writing my novel I realize I'm extremely averse to including any murder, even though it's a superhero story with guns in it and I was trying to include a drug gang. But it's also a drama above all else, inspired by She-Ra and the Princesses of Power which has war but we don't see soldiers' deaths.

I started studying Castilian Spanish, that spoken in Spain, and when asked where you're from, and you're from the Americas, you have to specify "North American" or "South American" Just putting that out there.

This is how I found out

A lot of the griping I just did would be better off in a group chat, and it was set off by someone being fucking rude to me, which is not a great motivator, so I decided it never needed to be bluesky posts in the first place and deleted them

Obviously the "the United States is actually the promised holy land" cult will be useful to US fascists in itself

I filled out both the 2025-2026 and the 2026-2027 FAFSA, and the race/ethnicity section was indeed changed a lot. I did indeed see the "Middle Eastern/North African" race added in the latter, which I loved, but it also changed to separate English and Scottish, which I always REALLY appreciate.

Shit like this is why YouTube addiction is so tough to beat

I love them all but if I have to choose the worst I'm going with toffee JUST because of how it gets stuck in your teeth

I would appreciate corporations not appropriating slang originating from the incel board on 4Chan. I still remember when it was known as a place that created mass shooters.

They are cooking us in innovation and frontiers. I would be willing to learn to speak Chinese, it probably wouldn't be that hard, but I'll be damned if you try to make me write it

happy valentine's! ❤ #nicktoonsunite #jimmytimmy

Whaaat I need more info on the ramifications of this so it's in the back of my mind while I wait it out

In this story, there is a lot of support for trans people that you rarely see covered in the media unless they're being attacked. Businesses and individuals all standing up and saying 'I will not be a part of this' and I think that needs to be highlighted because it can feel lonely out there.

The people pushing the line that Long COVID is completely psychosomatic don’t have a solution for the “social problems” they say cause psychosomatic illness, which means they’re useless even if they’re right.

I keep hearing that the Epstein files are so big if we held everyone accountable everything would collapse. And no it wouldn’t. These rich guys don’t do any actual work. They aren’t actually important or useful they are just rich.

Myself running for senator in Kentucky one day would be a long shot of all long shots, although we never know how things may change in 20 years or so, but it would be very funny for a Senator to have drawn professional quality mpreg in earnest. "Have you seen senator Valery's mpreg art"

Okay today's the day I'm in love with u Zohran

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”

Trump has lost the culture. But what if the universal conventional wisdom—that he won the culture in the first place—was never true? What if our warped media environment, then Trump's victory, created an illusion of MAGA cultural dominance that is now slipping. This is a long one, so strap in.

This is more of the same federal deregulation that makes it up to state and local governments to take the time and resources to address. This kind of Swiss cheese law is always inadequate to address issues that affect the whole country and always put everyone in the country at risk.

The SAVE act will disenfranchise millions, mostly women It requires ID that matches your birth certificate or passport If you’ve had a name change, your birth certificate won’t match The State Dept is banning libraries from processing passport applications They don’t want certain people to vote

It seems easier for progressives to have sympathy for trans women, because femininity is seen as delicate. They struggle to imagine trans men deserving of sympathy for having dysphoria to become masculine in a world increasingly equating it with monstrousness due to a handful of wealthy evil men.

Maybe if I were still medicated I wouldn't feel like crying for no reason

I know I should have more patience but it really is irritating how a US citizen can say "the US is the most powerful country on Earth" and people assume it's a brag or that we even think that's a good thing at all when this is not necessarily the case. "Powerful" does not have a positive connotation

I converted to Buddhism in college and it's survived this long through its time-tested wisdom rather than proselytizing and colonization. I would never try to convert everyone. It's an ideology of nonviolence and these Nazis need to get decked because it's the only thing they understand.

I'm only just now thinking about how most of the shoes we wear are plastic fabrics and pleather. ... I think I would like shoes made of cotton and/or jute.

My stance has been "everyone from the Americas is an American" and it has been met with "fuck off US pig" and "imperialism" but Bad Bunny proved me right so that was weird for me for a bit

That's an all-American, red-blooded patriot right there

Was there ever any doubt
