I made the mistake of creating a Twitter account to see what people are saying over there and on my god it's worse than I remember. Just an unending stream of uncensored slurs and hate. I hope they are all bots because if those are people I'm not sure where we go from here as a society.

Mfw it looks like the guy who killed Charlie Kirk was actually a Republican, lifelong pro 2nd amendment, MAGA nut job. I wonder if the GOP members that demanded democrats take ownership for this "violent leftist" are gonna take ownership now that we know it was one of them.

I think the odds are low that it's more than just a rumor and I haven't earnestly prayed in years but God please I hope he is unalive. Please send him on his way.

Is there a word for the despair one feels when your government is seemingly intentionally evil and yet no one in power does anything? This isn't a new feeling obv but I need a snappy word for it. Is there a word like schadenfreude we can take from German for this? Other languages are available.

Maturity is being able to put aside any nostalgia you have for magical wizard children when their existence as an intellectual property is directly used to further the political aims of bigots. I'm tired of excuses. If you are incapable of realizing this you are immature and a bad ally.

I am actually kinda annoyed that a serial sexual predator in Annoying Orange drag (but make it fascist) was able to bully one of the wealthiest companies on Earth to just incorrectly label a geographical feature so he could stroke his ego. I will literally never stop calling it the Gulf of Mexico.

Are you seeing a LOT of news about planes having accidents? It's probably not because more planes are having accidents. It's because the news knows you care about that this week. As an example, I just searched for "train derailment" news and found three in the last 24 hours.

I was watching some human filth gleeful tell a TikTok Live to report illegal immigrants to ICE and it got me wondering. Wouldn't it be really funny if a group of people started reporting people who definitely have status? Like, hypothetically I could report myself and waste some ICE agent's time

Trump has been president for 2 days and from what I can tell of these new executive orders I am now a female or nonbinary (depending on your interpretation) illegal immigrant. This is cool and normal.

Question for non American TikTok users, is your fyp also suddenly FULL of bible nonsense and Christian propaganda or is that just an America thing. Xiaugongshu looking better and better lately. Maybe it would have been better to just let TikTok die.

Is it possible to claim asylum fleeing from America yet? An oligarch literally just did a Nazi salute on national television TWICE and people cheered. We are so cooked.

🧵 My headphones were dead at the gym today so instead of listening to something I was thinking about the political implications of the 2005 movie Robots and wondering why it took me so long to be radicalized against capitalism. For those who don't remember, the movie takes place in a

Just moved to REDNote now that TimTok is going to die. Any Mandarin speakers out there with good resources for learning?

I wonder how often we'll see Republicans deadnaming the Gulf of Mexico if we legally change its name. If they can all stop calling it the thing it has been referred to since the 17th century we should never allow the excuse of "not being used to it" to exist unchallenged for trans people.

Just a reminder to anyone in the DC area on Monday the 20th, you don't have to attend the inauguration and if you don't it will make the orange man sad and insecure.

I heard that they indicated Luigi in NY for killing that CEO. In a completely unrelated thought, I hope NYers getting jury duty in the future know about jury nullification.

There's something really profound about going to an Irish Pub where 99% of the clientele are white middle aged men watching sports and taking over the jukebox and playing the Wicked soundtrack. The tonal, cultural dissonance is literally measurable. It's really something everyone should experience.

It's crazy how different this place is than the other one. I can actually spend more than 5 minutes on this app without becoming depressed or angry. Instead it's people making jokes about cuneiform clay bulla, cats, or Eleanor Rigby in a Burger King bathroom hovering to shit. A breath of fresh air.

About to watch wicked and my expectations are defying gravity but in real life and not a video game

Be the change you want to see. Send your next tweet on blue sky instead. It will make lon cry and I'll laugh

it's such a strange kind of almost whiplash when you are at a friend's place for lunch and they've invited a friend that brought along their roommate. And you think "oh that guy is cute" only to later in the meal get into a debate with him where he thinks we don't live in a capitalist society.

ok real talk, ABBA just never missed did they. I can't think of a single song of theirs that isn't at least good.

new york city is going to the dogs! ha! i only say that because i’m walking around new york city and i just saw a dog. that was actually pretty alarmist on my part. sorry. i shouldn’t have even posted this at all

New app, new me. maybe I'll actually use this place more than once.
