every conversation i have with @triumph44.bsky.social

The moment Biden got elected, the Dem institutional complex was like "Welp, thank goodness all that nonsense is now behind us and over forever and will never be a problem ever again. No need to worry about it or make sure it doesn't happen in the future."

Never mind the evidence: San Francisco, after several decades, is moving to abandon harm reduction as a principle in its substance use policy. Supes push measure to require supportive housing to ban the use of illegal drugs.

If you are not from Jersey or haven’t lived in Jersey you cannot comment on diner culture. Your state does not understand or experience true diner culture. You are an outsider to diners. This is not up for debate.

Literally just had this experience yesterday when at a diner. A true My culture is not your costume moment. 😀

#caturday #cats (this guy is on drugs until his surgery & he’s not mad)

Truth. #Caturday

the thing about New Jersey is that it might be the Northeast but it has borderline Southern summers because the subtropical climate zone extends all the way up to NYC so like. you need AC starting in April and it's kind of non-negotiable

This little criminal is at the vet today for tests, to see if he needs surgery. :-(

As someone who doesn't want children the only thing that could change my mind is if a weird guy on the internet told me I should

I do not think this is actually what we need to make campus discourse better and more balanced.

Ugh.

People also don't understand that working for non-profits is not "laid back & chill" just because it is not "corporate." Non-profit is a million times more stressful & I would like to escape the trap

Gemini: The acute agony you’ve been experiencing will let up a bit and morph into more of a vague dread that’s actually much, much harder to endure.

Goats!

I lived two blocks from the 7 train in Sunnyside, & basically next to the NE Regional/Acela in Astoria. That's excellent background noise. We need buildings that the trains run through, like in China or Disney World.

A key North Jersey experience is hearing a train whistle somewhere in the, it's comforting especially at night.

fraudulent addiction treatment will remain common until we actually have standards of care that don't allow billing for "faith based" approaches led by poorly trained peers. www.propublica.org/article/kent... if you wouldn't pay for it for depression or cancer, you shouldn't pay for it for addiction

Thinking about getting into potions.

We invite you to treat yourself to the healing power of watching a rescued baby goat boinging around.

He is done with this bullshit

Menace of society

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

I’ve been reading more about Vance’s ideological transformation and believe he would be more dangerous than Trump.

Concerned

People should be able to hibernate Vote yes to hibernation!

(2 is obviously the correct choice)

This is the most important chart ever

Even Carl Schmitt is done at this point

Soup is an underrated beverage

Everyone should do this, fuck JD Vance

The most New Jerseyan thing possible is desperately wishing to run and find new places and then realising that you just kinda lucked into the best place you could reasonably live in already.

Cheerful thought: He will make it through his term if it kills all of us. Would JD Vance be worse than Pence would have been? Close call.

"There will be feasting & dancing in Jerusalem next year/ I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me" Chag Sameach Passover!

Yessssssss 🙌🙌🙌🙌 Jewish belief in right to abortion for the WINNNNN

Yes, I think we are exactly that stupid.

'When we look at government, we should not see God. We should see Pharoah. Government-worship is Pharoah-worship.'

Yeah

This is my hot take, which annoys @triumph44.bsky.social. I just don't think It Will Happen any time soon. Especially since he's been looking less...deathly...lately. Sorry. This brings me no joy, much like my 2015 take. I will be happy if I am wrong about this!

This basically applies to everything. And I think it's bad to make excuses for politicians.

The Cult of Mamdani is full of entirely unserious people

i'll be fine once i am not insane

Yes I have to post another picture of my beautiful cat

New toy!

Did my cat write this?
