I don’t understand this weird air of superiority about Twitter. I don’t find it noble to be surrounded by slurs and pedophiles. Dunking on them isn’t much better.

It’s comical that cishet white men can somehow understand that one’s past can have an effect on their future…but only apply it to other white men and for some reason also to a fictional murderer with superpowers

most of his comment section seems to share my feelings on this. the word never went away and its meaning never diminished. hell, i think the big reason it's suddenly so popular again is because the recent rise of right-wing fascism has made it okay to openly treat disabled people as subhuman.

the resurgence in people saying the r word is a resurgence in ableism and not just a natural changing of meaning fuck you etymology nerd

i'm sorry to anyone who likes the etymology nerd but i staunchly disagree with his latest video about the R word. it feels incredibly tonedeaf and has seriously harmed his credibility in my view. hearing the R word in casual conversation still makes my blood run cold.

Did not have on my bingo card the Etymology Nerd coming out in favor of using the r-word, and yet here we are. Fascists have been demanding they can use any and all words that they please, namely slurs and derogatory words and phrases. I have seen people use the r word. Cannot see them the same.

The r-slur is not being said as a means to remove its power. It’s being said because the world is backsliding socially and politically into a hellscape. America itself is governed by mean dipshits who have emboldened a bunch of limpdicked fools who think cruelty is what makes America great.

I am impressed that any person can watch The Boys from start to finish and think that Homelander—who spent the first season obsessing over a woman and her breast milk and ended the second season jacking it while yelling “I can do whatever the fuck I want” on a rooftop—is supposed to be the hero.

You forget: Thomas Massie still supports Trump’s agenda. Him being good on Epstein doesn’t mean he doesn’t want Trump in power.

So that Etymology Nerd guy tried to make a justification for why the r-word is fine, actually. Fuck him. That word is enough for me to cut someone off completely because if they’re willing to use it knowing it’s offensive and cruel, chances are they have other shitty opinions too. Zero tolerance.

Everyone involved with this needs to be [SATIRE] with the thinnest of piano wire.

Spoilers for The Boys TV series final episode alert: Conservatives are mad that Homelander pathetically begged for his life before he was killed after being depowered. They miss the point of the scene and the character—he was a twisted and deranged monster and his powers enabled his behavior.

I don’t feel sorry for Thomas Massie. Him doing the bare minimum to be a decent human shouldn’t be rewarded after his longtime bootlicking finally hit him in the face. Yes, he’s good on Epstein but that is, again, the bare minimum. He still voted for all the other terrible shit.

How do we even deal with this? They are literally making our lives worse out of malice. Meanwhile a bunch of mean fucks will talk about how “based” this is just because it hurts people.

There are so many people on the left kissing the asses of white Christian nationalists like Tucker Carlson and Thomas Massie because they attack Israel, ignoring their contempt is only because they hate Jewish people and not because the nation itself is carrying out a genocide.

The only thing that gets Lindsey Graham harder than getting railed by white twinks is bombing brown children

Thomas Massie is another politician you don’t have to just hand it to. He’s good on just a couple of things but is otherwise just another white supremacist obsessed with guns.

These loser dipshits think that because the country sucks right now that they can just do whatever they want. It’s good when they get a reality check and see that the hey aren’t gods, just emboldened psychopaths.

What even happens if the unredacted Epstein files are released? I think it’s clear that Trump can get away with literally anything. There can be things in there that literally say “TRUMP ASSAULTED CHIIDREN” and people would treat it like the score to a minor league baseball game.

Opinion | Democrats are the real racists. Also, here’s why I support the Confederate slave states furiously redrawing their maps to replace all Black Democrats with white Republicans.

I don’t want any leftist allies who think Marjorie Taylor Greene is an ally and AOC is an enemy. MTG criticizes Israel because she is explicitly antisemitic, not because the government is enacting a genocide. Wild that we have people actually pretending she’s worth a damn on anything.

Every time Trump says something rude to a reporter, I wonder why they don’t talk shit back. He’s the President, not royalty. That makes me so mad.

Curious how gutting the VRA can be excused as a distraction from class warfare

A lot of white leftists think that Black people who vote for Dems are just incompetent rubes being tricked rather than us understanding that there are currently only two viable parties and one seems to be on the verge of re-legalizing slavery.

Comedy isn’t even legal anymore. You can’t tell women they’ll get raped by brown people and that a country should be forcefully colonized or they’ll just look at you like this

There are no jokes in this crowd work. It’s all just the same angry bigotry you’d hear on social media told by a porcine freak who looks like the kind of guy who’d say that stuff. Right-wing comedy is always just their cruelty but told in a way to get people to laugh

COVID really changed things a LOT

Great but…they could before??

the thing about the necessary reforms is that it will be very difficult, you will be fighting against fox news and asymmetric media output because you refuse to give left-leaning creators the money necessary to make a living speaking truth to power

Y’all are gonna be surprised when he gets in office and starts governing like a straight white man with a Nazi tattoo and a history of awful behavior, just like John Fetterman sans the tattoo in his case.

But it is now. And that’s the problem. This administration has normalized the worst possible behavior for a governing body. And it’s only going to get worse from here. We have to deal with a bunch of petty sociopaths and psychopaths whose governance is based on their whims that day.

I don’t trust Graham Platner. I hope he wins only because we don’t need any more Rs in power, but I’m sick of people trusting every cishet white guy who acts like an iconoclast, regardless of their red flags.

In all seriousness: when did we enter the era of fascist gay rich weirdos taking out their personal problems on the country?

It would be nice to not have a bunch of king judges who get to govern the country until they die

This soon to be corpse actively voted against anything that would make it easier to have kids and raise them. If he wasn’t dying/afraid of Trump running him out of government he would still be part of the problem.

The day when it happens for real will be so grand.

Leftists have been ready to launch Kamala Harris into the sun for any reason at all, but are willing to work with Marjorie Taylor Greene because they think her explicit antisemitism is the exact same as opposing Israel’s corrupt government. So annoying.

God forbid we forget that we enjoy things AND can be aware we’re living in a messed up time

This, exactly. One of the biggest misconceptions about fascism is that it looks like goose stepping Nazis all the time. Instead, it’s amorphous and takes the shape of the country it grows in. I cannot recommend Robert Paxton’s The Anatomy of Fascism enough.

It’s annoying having people try to pretend to be like average joes by putting on “lower class” affects when they’re actually filthy rich and part of the elites. No one should take Theo Von, a member of a super wealthy Polish bloodline, with any kind of seriousness. His whole act is a persona.

Just gonna say it: I think people need to stop basing their politics around people they wanna fuck

I predicted that white liberals and leftists were going to get a lot more racist after Trump’s second election not long after his inauguration. From what I’ve seen I feel very vindicated in saying that considering their utter contempt against Black voters to their endorsements of living red flags

Bro could have just said “yeah, I know that Rowling really, REALLY hates trans people but this is a guaranteed paycheck so I don’t care” Or you know, just shut up and play the old magic guy without trying to justify it more.

I thought it was gonna suck trying to cut back on sugar until I realized there are so many healthy sweeteners when used in moderation like blended fruit and honey. I haven’t had any added sugar in weeks!

It’s perfect.

I love almond milk now. I use unsweetened vanilla flavored almond milk in plenty of places I would have normally used regular dairy milk. I like the texture much better, especially in smoothies. I need a bigger blender to add more ingredients, though.

Hot oatmeal every day can get somewhat old, so I started mixing it up; lately I’ve been putting my normal serving size of oats into a container and soaking them in unsweetened vanilla almond milk overnight, then adding them into a smoothie made of frozen fruits, Greek yogurt, and a bit of honey!

Woke 2.0 always comes off to me as “we want what we wanted before but we wanna appeal to Nazi manchildren so we don’t get called cringe”

If you like strawberry shortcake ice cream bars, here’s a cheat code: Oikos Triple Zero mixed berry yogurt + 2 - 3 tablespoons of flaxseed meal + chopped walnuts. Trust me

As I’ve said a million times, Trump’s not immortal. What do they think is going to happen after he dies?
