A thought occurs to me: The validation provided by Mike Lee and Vance re: use of military force was that it did not require congressional approval because it was used to protect law enforcement who were enacting an arrest warrant, (1/2)

The argument for educators in the past used to be “you won’t always have a calculator in your pocket to do this work for you” Now the argument is “the calculator in your pocket is a fucking moron”

There’s a long way to go before the basic humanity of Gazans is being recognized and supported, but I have to hold on to hope that this at least is the smallest incremental step towards the end of a genocide.

Getting republicans to cry about woke is so easy it’s like shooting crackers in a barrel.

“Guys, do we really have to do this? The ides of march falls on a weekend and I was really looking forward to putting the senate into recess so I could hit the putting green in my district with Cassius over the weekend.”

It’s the shooter from Degrassi.

I’m going to call my congressman and tell him that I’m his grandson and I’m in jail and he needs to send me $500 in gift card codes for bail.

It is the second day of the new Trump presidency. I am a Jewish American educator of English as a Second Language students in Chicago. I am going to bed trying not to replay Elon’s nazi salute in my head while combatting the dread that I’ll be physically fighting off ICE jackboots 1/2.

Sometimes my psyche reverts to peanut size toddler brain

Stardew Valley is a very cute farming and relationship simulation game where I can escape reality and name a pig Farticus.

I find it pretty sketchy that Carter died this late into the year, like other elder luminaries such as Betty White. People say he loved his wife but I’m thinking he’s buggering off to a pair of big ol’ bouncing Betty bazongas.

I’m being told that the Democratic Party will be selling Jimmy Carter’s fingers and toes as relics of a bygone and purer political era.

They found Jimmy Carter dead in the woods after he disappeared on a Bigfoot hunting expedition

Parents are afraid to send their kids to trick or treat because they leave the house as goblins and come back as ghouls

People have been dreaming about a new console so naturally we’ve decided to make an alarm clock so they can wake the fuck up

like if you convinced me that it was impossible to do good things via the state then I would simply switch to team How to do Good Things via the Organizing Space / book club / friend group / cast-iron skillet. i cannot imagine spending my one life as a missionary for the church of "that won't work"

pessimisms of all kinds seem performatively self defeating to me in a peculiar way - it's not so much that I can't imagine being convinced of some version of "good things aren't possible (through the state / in general)", but I can't imagine doing theory about it

Little known fact, but the reason it was known as “the orb” was due to a failed American heartland campaign to name it after Roy Orbison in 1960. Alas, “Only the Lonely” know how that failure felt.

[Herzog]: The phallus… a ubiquitous symbology of grim satisfaction and petit deaths. A bacchanalia of sucking and fucking - from within a choking, filth producing, corpse-derived petrol can be guzzled contemporaneously with the life giving seed of man.

The sheer amount of “so you hate waffles” styled responses to this are baffling. We’re coming into our twitter age so quickly.

This is exactly the thing I’m taking away from this whole fiasco, with an addendum. In nearly every case so far if labelers collapsing, in specific regards to antisemitism labels, a consistent and disturbingly normalized response I’m seeing is “well yeah Jews should have a voice but not THAT Jew.”

Ok is it just me or are there a significantly outsized portion of Kiki’s? Is this some kind of weird Stanford experiment, where we are creating an artificially empowered and abusive majority?

Bro I’m so done with the internet

Welp… *slaps knee* time to head on out to the lake house and wait for this all to blow over.

Bluesky Lowbies: This is a place where everyone I’ve ever had a banger riff with commits ritualistic posting seppuku

No idea who caught it this time, yet I am here to remind you all that -

Allow me to scream into the void for a bit: my dog, who is my absolute best friend in the whole world, will be going in for major life saving/altering surgery tomorrow morning. It is a risky surgery, but necessary for her to extend her life beyond a maximum (and likely miserable) year or two more.

You know, when I wrote the thing she was responding to here I wrote it as a parody, but it sure looks like someone took it as a testimonial for their bad exposé instead!

I WILL be HEARD. This site will die in DARKNESS if they don’t get this unmanageable LIBEL issue under control IMMEDIATELY. I call on bluesky MODERATOR and renowned RACIST Kairi to STEP DOWN immediately or I will be pursuing LEGAL ACTION in the ADMIRALTY COURTSz

Any time I see a Christian refer to a different brand of Christian as “difficult to build communities with” I begin to imagine my blank state drilling a hole into the space between their eyes.

Yeah they won’t listen to you - yeah, because your religion needs a winner.

There are two truths: Nobody hates Star Wars as much as Star Wars fans. The only thing Star Wars fans hate more than Star Wars is other Star Wars fans.
