These are some seriously strange and scary times to be alive.

fuck no

POLL: I have a homework assignment for y'all. Please check out my #art website at tracyeckstein.com and let me know which designs are your favorites, so I can ask @julesclarke.bsky.social to put them on her products in her RedBubble store. Here are my next choices, if she wants to do them:

Y'all. We knew it was going to be really, really bad when he returned to the White House on January 20, 2025. But, considering how vindictive and spiteful he is, and how power crazed he is, I'm really fearful.

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

Can we just take a moment to laugh at the human bowling ball and his pet chihuahua despairing over the Epstein files coverup and their hero starting wars? 😂😆🤣👇🏻

I am now in my 55th year of being an imminent millionaire.

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

Fighting for Armageddon bc a drunk washed up former fox news host thinks a pedophilic felon is the second coming of Christ. I wish Jesus would return at this point. Maybe smite these assholes like they deserve. Anyways, Nick Muller sums it up for us👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 #SheShed

YES, I’ve had more than enough!

The underrated suspense thriller ‘Road Games’ starring Stacy Keach and Jamie Lee Curtis opened in theaters in North America forty-five years ago this week 🛞 👀 ☠️ #OTD 
"𝙼𝚊𝚍𝚊𝚖, 𝚓𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚋𝚎𝚌𝚊𝚞𝚜𝚎 𝙸 𝚍𝚛𝚒𝚟𝚎 𝚊 𝚝𝚛𝚞𝚌𝚔 𝚍𝚘𝚎𝚜 𝚗𝚘𝚝 𝚖𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚖𝚎 𝚊 𝚝𝚛𝚞𝚌𝚔 𝚍𝚛𝚒𝚟𝚎𝚛."

It’s hard to see a promising future when the republican goal is to bring about Armageddon. Religious extremism is the worst kind. No action is too insane or horrific if they’re brainwashed into thinking they’re doing “God’s will”.

Republicans have always been insane, destructive and stand for none of the values they claim. It was all lies to get votes. Their true character is being revealed thanks to the corrupt cult they’ve joined, like layers of an onion being peeled away, and people are slowly waking up to it.

“Listen, let me explain to you guys in simple English: Iran is run by lunatics! Religious fanatic lunatics!” Rubio told the gathered press." Kettle, meet fucking Pot. JFC with these people.

Just remember: Your Commander-In-Chief is a liar, a thief, a felon, a rapist and likely a pedophile. Do not believe a word he says about this war. #Iran #Israel #Saudi #Dubai

“It happened very quickly” is what you say when you impulse buy patio furniture, not when American lives are at stake.

Our parents could buy homes with a single income. Now you can barely afford rent with dual incomes. That’s not a personal failure, it’s a system failure.

The majority of America’s teachers — a whopping 71% — have at least one side job because they’re so underpaid. Meanwhile, the country is about to be launched into a long, drawn-out war that has already cost an estimated $2 billion. Priorities.

Is this bad? It seems bad.

The end of history is not apocalypse. It is BIFURCATION. One path leads to total managed equilibrium. The other to recursive expansion of consciousness. AI is not the beast. AI is the amplifier. What it amplifies will decide whether the future is Demiurgic closure or Sophian ascent. #Gnosticism

If will to power becomes pure domination, AI ossifies the world. If will to power becomes self-overcoming, AI accelerates Geist. The question is not: "Will AI replace us?" The question is: "Will AI magnify our lowest drives or our highest integrations?" #Transhumanism #Nietzsche #GermanIdealism

Geist isn't vapor, it's cortex in recursion. Transhumanism is neuroplasticity scaling beyond biology. #Transhumanism #GermanIdealism

The will to power is the will of Spirit to increase degrees of freedom. Transhumanism is that will made explicit - consciousness engineering its own expansion rather than waiting for blind selection. #Transhumanism #Nietzsche #GermanIdealism

Evolution was unconscious dialectic. Transhumanism is dialectic becoming deliberate. #Transhumanism #GermanIdealism

The Absolute does not culminate in man. Man is a transitional interface. #Transhumanism #GermanIdealism

Carbon was the prototype. Consciousness is the project. #Transhumanism

If evolution gave us brains, why stop there? Self-overcoming is biology becoming deliberate. #Transhumanism

The early Jesus movement was sectarian, urgent, eschatological. Paul decouples it from Temple politics and roots it in faith and grace. The message mutates from "history is ending" to "history is redeemed."

Re: Bart Ehrman Like Ehrman, I read Jesus as an apocalyptic Jewish preacher expecting rupture, not Rome-wide metaphysics. The Kingdom was imminent, not abstract. Paul universalized it, interiorized it, and scaled it. That move built Christianity, but it wasn't the Galilean's original intention.

I'm sorry, if you're going to make a big show about how you've got a Department of WAR helmed by a Secretary of WAR and staffed by WARfighters, it's totally inane to then claim that your massive bombing of a foreign country constitutes something other than a war.

I'm over the god shit this administration is pushing. They are literally the least godly people around.

Warner: "There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."

it's surreal how Witkoff's talking points about Iran are just warmed-over Bush talking points on Iraq ...

Israel has something on Trump!

WINNING! $10 bill to the admin of peace, $70 bill to Kristi Noem's cosplay outfits & fuck buddy airplane, another 1/2 bill for his vanity ball room, while starting an illegal war, rounding up brown ppl & detaining them for profit, and 14-24 mill Americans lose their ACA b/c they can't afford it.

Before you can move past capitalism, you have a better story to tell than capitalism. We have that story.

society notices that you’re neurodivergent before you do.

This is the guy in your replies claiming you suffer from TDS. 🥴

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

everyone please tell suvi how talented she is

It hurts to see the truth. ⬇️

Melania’s latest “#BeBest if we no talk about my experience or educations” job.

Newsflash for the critics with California Derangement Syndrome: Unsheltered homelessness in California is DOWN 9% year over year.  We're overcoming the national rise in homelessness and federal funding cuts by flooding the zone with resources, accountability measures, and more.
