LMAO someone in watercolor class is talking about how she dated a man whose parents escaped Cuba because they were wealthy and being persecuted for it

I'm really starting to dislike that asshole

Lia Smith, a transgender athlete who was on Middlebury's swimming and diving team, was just found dead by suicide this week. www.them.us/story/lia-sm...

If this goes where most marginalized folks think its gonna go & youre on here telling us that we **HAVE** to vote for him to get things back to “normalcy” when elections roll around I will block you like lightning b/c nothing will ever get me to support this heifer & screw you for thinking we should

Unbelievable

Interviewer: how do you feel about your performance Ohtani: Fuck off I have to pitch tomorrow don't you have a family to go home to *pause* Interpreter: I feel great

they let me spend 2 hours hanging out with him since it was empty at 2 am and we watched his Bird videos and cuddled 🥹 it was very nice I miss him horribly again already

I reposted this in the 12th.

I sure made a wise choice starting the replay of this game just around the time I figured it would've been over

The Jays and Dodgers will break for Christmas Eve to share a drink in no man’s land, show each other photos of the family they left back home, before heading back to their respective trenches.

“Well, it’s the top of the inning…again…”

the year is 2047. water is currency. emperor dwayne ‘the rock’ johnson is humankind’s last hope against the army of octopus that walked out of the seas three years ago. the dodgers and blue jays are starting the 17,432nd inning of game 3 of the 2025 world series.

This game is like I got caught smoking a baseball and now I have to smoke a whole pack of baseball

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms). It’s also concerning. 1/

Folks, Maya’s cat Eggs is in the hospital and facing surgery. It’s such a traumatic time. Let’s help ease some of the stress and help her with funding.

Other candidates can't do this because they don't actually care what we want. Think of how many town halls reps refuse to do. Think about how much derision some reps showed for constituents when they did do town halls. think about how Schumer invented a fictional couple rather than talk to people.

i feel like there is a chance dracula was just misunderstood & i could fix him by consensually feminizing him

Calm Down, the French Revolution Will Never Happen Here by Bari Weiss

People should also remember that SNAP is mostly a transfer to nonworkers—children, retirees, the unemployed, people with disabilities, etc—higher wages alone will not solve food insecurity in this country!

Getting rid of SNAP just frees people to retvrn to the idyllic lifestyle promoted by twitter trad influencers of subsistence farming

This is right up there with suggesting that people grow their own food in their backyards as similarly realistic

Eggs is beloved as is our favorite Canadian girlfriend ❤️

This is the reminder that SNAP makes money because ensuring people have enough to eat is a basic economic multiplier

Anyone done this bit yet

Suggesting SNAP be replaced with food banks is a proposal of equivalent seriousness to that anarchist thread a few years back suggesting that global insulin supply chains could be replaced by supporting “rural doctors and healers”

I think very often people do not realize the sheer *scale* of government, particularly the US government.

See also: folks who thought the death of USAID was a good thing, because then “non-imperialist” foreign aid would come in from *static noises*

It's just, so fucking weird to think I'm at most 2,3 degrees separated from this guy

My most extreme political viewpoint is that anyone writing about Trump who does not, at the very minimum, mention the rape conviction or the pedophilia, is probably doing so because they don't feel those sorts of things should follow a person around for the rest of their worthless lives

I can't wait to find out that someone uses the "developer strategy" of "arson" to clear new development of certain homes

starving over 40 million people right before major holidays + massively upping healthcare costs does strike me as a rather bold move this early in the authoritarian consolidation game for any given fascist regime, but I guess we’ll see what happens

i was close enough to the senior layers of my organization that i got to listen to a SVP say "as a mature organization, we are going to do layoffs every year," and hear them explicitly say that morale "problems" among US workers were not problems because they reduce the total cost of compensation.

You will be most likely dying alone and if you want to know how I can predict that, I can walk you through it

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern. Late last night, I woke up to my car, car port, and home engulfed in flames. I'm grateful for the quick response from Portland firefighters who prevented the fire from spreading even further.

Do you think she makes him do the blackface during sex

hey man if they fuck up food stamps it's gonna get real nasty out there basically instantly and i think people are radically underestimating how quickly things can and may go nonlinear

"things get bad when people are hungry" has been the #1 rule of societies since the literal beginning of civilization as a concept to the point saying hunger causes unrest isn't a prediction so much as it is an observation

Yeah I'm sure you do see it as reasonable, you're white

315/400! Only 85 more to go 🥹

White people cannot by definition experience any racism

A huge chunk of the American economy is predicated on precarious and exploited immigrant workers and it turns out “fostering an environment of terror that keeps them in their place and accepting horrid conditions under threat of being disappeared” is completely coherent for a large segment of voters

Y'all got any candidates who don't suck

Fascists went and torched a Portland City Councilor’s home
