If you are anti-fascist, you should be pro mask. Both for your own security reasons as well as being a good human being who gives a shit about other people.

I heard Bill Burr and a bunch of well-known actors are on broadway doing Glen Gary Glenn Ross. I haven’t been to NY in 25 years or anywhere since the pandemic and I love a play. So I goog the ticket price. It was $675 a seat. Lmafo get a grip dickheads

I am tired of people ignoring that disabled people OF ALL AGES need Medicare & Social Security, not just seniors. In this fascist regime leaving us out is dangerous. It WILL get us killed faster & with less pushback. Stop making disabled people afterthoughts— that’s how we got here to begin with.

Elon Musk has fired thousands of USDA workers, which could cause grocery prices to rise and invasive species to spread. DOGE fired food experts, inspectors, entomologists, and more. Now food could rot in ports or be riddled with invasive pests. www.wired.com/story/usda-f...

I’ve never seen us write “Who is we?” so often😆 Stop including us in your nonsense! 92%of us are minding our business!

ILLEGALLY & secretly transported him OVER STATE LINES to "detain" & isolate him in Louisiana. What, there's no ICE Detainment Centers in the Northeast?? Hear that his lawyers have STILL not been able to speak to him face to face. "CRUEL & UNUSUAL" ring a bell??

Columbia is welcoming ICE agents into their campus, with or without warrants, and instructing faculty not to interfere with their operations to arrest, harass, or deport students. It is clear now that Columbia will take no action to protect students on visas or with green cards.

I...live in the US for much less money and much less hope of a turnaround.

Just heard my first ice cream truck, more reliable than a groundhog, spring is on the way. It’s 49 degrees, but still.😆

I slept terribly and everything hurts. Cool.

Remember, when people tell you big pharma can’t be trusted because they’re in it for the money; the wellness industry is substantially bigger than the pharmaceutical industry

Chicago landlord ordered to pay $80,000 for threatening to call ICE on tenants

None of this is normal so if you feel off that’s *absolutely* normal. I’d be concerned if you didn’t feel unmoored and unsettled.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that autocorrect is getting less and less helpful. The admin is anti intellectual and it’s been seeping through the culture since 2016.

Anybody have some funny movie podcast recs? HDTGM and Newcomers are my faves but I’d love a few more. I like breakdowns like CinemaSins too, for context.

If you see something No you absolutely did not

The day was mostly good for me, I guess the relentless fascism got to me eventually and soured my mood.

In another timeline I’m working on my second book. My first one did OK but fueled me to do better. I have my Masters. I’m still in BK but have outdoor space. I have another cat, maybe a dog too. I travel a few times a year for inspiration. I can almost touch that life. But I’m living this one.

Anybody else play Sims on console? I’m an extreme beginner but I just installed a pool next to my barn and I’m feeling elated.

The fact that its on MLK Day makes my teeth itch in a horrendously ugly way. Anyways nah — you ain’t gotta watch that shit. Go volunteer in your community or do something nice for black folks trying to keep their heads down or something.

The United States is a third world country masquerading as a first world

If you’re not afraid of getting canceled, you fucking coward, why didn’t you let them print your name?

Forty acres and a mule.

Watching #BrilliantMinds, where a caring, empathetic doctor does anything he has must to help his patients. Fantasy, but maybe that’s why I find medical shows comforting. Plus #rainbowsunfrancks!

The social contract is broken, I fear.

Anyone else get bronchitis lately? I’m over the worst of it, surprisingly. But I’m on rest/chill mode for the foreseeable future. Lots of liquids.

White supremacists.

24-hour news is so grotesque in times of crisis. I don’t know how these people live with themselves.
