Fuck the stock market reports, this is what real life is like

don't hate me but. really whelming design on my boy essek.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Millions of conservatives believe that most US cities literally burned to the ground five years ago and there’s no convincing them otherwise, because they’ll never go visit.

Pray for me and my mask on this flight y'all I'm surrounded by the four horsemen of the coughpocalypse

I hate crypto, I hate online gambling, I hate AI, I hate pay-later, I hate subscription models, I hate the gig economy, I hate ring cameras, I hate drones, I hate self checkout. I don't want to come off as a luddite but capitalism's hold on tech sucks.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Get in loser we’re creating honest sentimental art without a trace of irony and putting a piece of ourselves out into the world

medical debt is the #1 cause of bankruptcy in the U.S.

I love how Rs are always given the free pass to 'not be informed' about what their own party is doing or the President is doing because they've been saying 'I haven't seen it' for 10 years now and that's good enough. Tweets, pressers, statements. They always look away for some reason and that's OK.

"But Dave, *how* do they win in this info environment?" I don't know! The right spent decades patiently building institutions, patiently buying up properties, patiently eroding the public's trust in real journalism. Fighting back against that -- starting 50 years too late -- is going to be tough.

Done. Super easy. You do not have to fill out a category. You can submit anonymously. Fight for your right to vaccinations. Vaccinations are a miracle of science, and that it is being passed off as more dangerous than the diseases it prevents is completely idiotic and bad science.

“There is a loneliness epidemic among men” have they tried not devoting their entire identity to hating women and everything feminine? Might help.

Democrats shrink the federal deficit and Republicans explode it and the entire media apparatus tells the exact opposite story, and now a bunch of vultures who have only ever robbed us and left us bleeding by the side of the road enjoy comfortable leads in most public opinion polls on the economy.

The fact that AI generated kid-lit is a thing shows that some people view kids' media as something meant to distract children, and not something that's integral to cognitive development.

i want to be a killjoy: we need to make it socially unacceptable to ask chatgpt anything

GUYS. The comment period for this ends in THREE DAYS. PLEASE if you have even a little bit of time, submit a comment here: www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD... Let them know EVERYONE should be able to get COVID vaccines. They BACK DOWN when WE PUSH BACK. www.statnews.com/2025/05/20/f...

40 years ago today, Philadelphia police bombed a neighborhood killing 11 Black people, including 5 Black children. The only person who went to prison was Ramona Africa, a Black woman who survived the bombing. Chances are this is the first you've heard about it. www.qasimrashid.com/p/today-mark...

You have to care so so deeply, regardless of whether or not someone else is going to think it's embarrassing. Say something true and beautiful. If it sucks, hit da bricks.

I don’t care if you hate porn. Please for the love of god don’t get stuck there cognitively. Anti-porn legislation + how trans and NB people (even cis drag queens/kings) are being consistently described as sexually deviant = the groundwork is being laid for all queer expression to be made illegal.

wore a bucket hat to rehearsal and Joe called me Hip Hop Veggie Tales :(

I need to draw OC for my health...

Fundamental problem is that comfortable, white Americans can never, ever imagine shit getting bad. This is exactly the same problem with climate change. Everything has to end up ok because others is literally unimaginable.

FORMER BULLIED LITTLE WEIRD GIRLS WITH NO FRIENDS, ARE WE EVER MAKING IT THROUGH THE OZ DUST BALLROOM SCENE WITHOUT CRYING UNCONTROLLABLY? (NO!)

Happy May 1st. The value of your labor belongs to you and the actions of the state are best understood as as a coordinated effort to distract you from this. The state fears an organized and unified proletariat like it fears death and rightly so. Power to the workers and power to the people

you don't need chatGPT i am perfectly capable of drinking a bottle of water and lying to you

I’ve found it’s more visually appealing to just paste in his head at the inflection points

im just so fucking sad about all of the wonderful kindhearted people who are trying to make the world a better place being needlessly punished by guys who are upset the internet let them know how unpopular their ideas are

I'd like more people to realize that we going to have to craft solutions without the support of people who want the problems; working without seeking their permission makes the job far easier; wasting time seeking their approval only reinforces their self-appointment to Certified Solution Approver.

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

The correct response to rfk saying he wants to exterminate autistic people is to loudly tell him "die, motherfucker" instead of trying to explain that human lives have value.

but could a depressed person do THIS? *recreates childhood home in Minecraft*

JKR funded the campaign group behind all this btw. This is why we beg you to stop engaging with Harry Potter media.

living through the rise of fascism lets me know how much of it occurs just because people don’t want to appear alarmist

my personal recession index is how hard I've retreated into fandom spaces again and brother according to the open AO3 tabs it is NOT looking good

“But we don’t have the money” they say about housing, health care, and education.

ChatGPT ass presidency

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

I'm 18. The economy enters a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican president is responsible. I'm 29. There is once-in-a-century pandemic that leads to a once-in-century-recession. A Republican is responsible. I'm 35. Tarriffs trigger a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican is responsible.

Beating absolutely VILE Connections has us celebrating like we just landed a rover on Mars

I'm having possibly one of the worst hard times of my entire life but you know what would fix me... a mel/zag reunion sequence...

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

Enforcing a G rating on the entire internet is fascist and if you're clutching pearls directly at strangers instead of cultivating your own space you're part of the problem.

Governments don’t need to be profitable. Money is fake. Food is real. Medical care is real. Violence is real. Safety is real.
