Every day the fucking news has me like this

The guy who said we’d already be in mars by now and that a hyper tunnel would already be connecting LA to Vegas and that humanoid robots are going to eliminate poverty thinks the new mayor of New York is the swindler?

"The average voter believes a SNAP recipient gets $20/day, more than 3 times the actual amount of $6."

Yall remember how I said please don’t use AI as a therapist and ppl were arguing with me that there’s no harm in it.

A lot of Millenials are dying of very preventable diseases. We're also not having a lot of children. What will people think about Millenials based on the ones that survive?

I don't understand this idea that Black women would want to be anything other than Black women when y'all copy us SO MUCH.

Got another fun language brain thing for @krageinsf.bsky.social I was attempting to tell a friend I was tired in Spanish today, and said the words "Estoy pigonhada" 피곤하다 while SOUNDS like a Spanish word, is NOT a Spanish word. At least not in this context.

It's only 9pm, also I'm sick as hell. Very unhappy. Need rest ASAP.

It is not accurate to report that “millions will pay double what they are paying now” for health insurance. That is impossible. Those millions cannot afford to pay that and will not do what they cannot do. Millions of Americans do NOT HAVE an extra $1,200/ month just lying around.

I have been ignoring everything, including email, for the last few weeks, but finally just realized that I needed to make sure Flytrap could renew after backing the Kickstarter. Are you in the same boat? They're nearly to the goal!

WELP

The Ivory Coast is changing the way French is spoken and France is mad about it.

I just found out that white people don't have aunties who aren't related to them and that they don't know what "walking with a switch in your hip" means and I'm starting to believe that y'all don't have a culture.

“Trapped in an abusive relationship with America? You could be entitled to compensation.”

So I finally read the full article of that woman who dated conservative men for a year and it is infuriating. Mostly because she keeps making excuses and trying to "understand" them, and I feel like they're telling her exactly who they are. She just doesn't want to listen.

Wonho is such a bird, I swear.

I need to do a brain dump but I don't wanna think.

I don't know who Tara Palmeri is and I don't want to.

I finally have a blog post coming out tomorrow. You can check it out on this link or join the newsletter and get notified when it actually posts: deana-jones.ghost.io/p/130806cf-e...

I'm so goddamn tired of saying this but: this is it. All the worrying that trans folks have had since he took office? This is why. This is the first step on a short road that ends with the criminalization of trans existence in the US. It isn't doomsaying. It isn't panic. It's right in front of us.

So many businesses are just straight up lying in their mission statements.

President Trump’s immigration crackdown has led to increased ICE raids, resulting in human rights abuses in detention centers—incl. the abuse & neglect of disabled immigrants, Reina Sultan reports. A monitoring visit at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center has exposed inhumane & unlawful conditions.

I want to gently push back on this: not being able to read complex writing is not the same as being a low information citizen. Many people can comprehend the topics involved just fine if they are presented in an accessible and understandable manner.

This is what got me, his only defense is to claim he was as stupid as you’d have to be to buy his defense. You can’t call me a fool while asking for my sympathy and credulity.

I think I might actually quit social media all together and just blog. I dunno if I've grown out of it or if I can't handle too much distraction rn.

Independent Women Pt 2 by Destiny's Child is on my Halloween playlist. I think it's the Oompa Loompa song sample that makes it feel spooky but it definitely belongs. I don't care what people think.

Remember, if you get infected with the Zombie Virus, it is YOUR responsibility to position yourself for a maximally surprising and tactically advantageous position to catch the humans off guard. Nobody's going to put you in a closet, or walk-in freezer, or basement. You have to help yourself.

Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact: TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.

So I'm watching Bon Appetit, Your Majesty because a bitch loves historical romances, and there's a part where the main female character and the main male character are in this village that is supposed to be abandoned right....

🔥🔥Trump Administration Is Legally Required to Provide SNAP in Shutdown, Contrary to Its Claims! SEE YOU IN COURT! www.cbpp.org/press/statem...

On a Federal level Medicaid still can't be given to anyone who isn't a citizen. It's the healthcare of citizens that Democrats are trying to protect. Republicans are flat out lying. Don't let them get away with this bullshit.

They won't learn. And frankly, the wealthier white people in the suburbs and rural areas who are his core base hate poor white people almost as much as they hate non-white poor people. They'll be fine with the "trash" taking a hit.

If I could have any superpower it would be the ability to knock sense into someone. Because the way I wanna smack the shit out of everyone right now....

I don’t want to see someone who’s 77 running for office, but you know who I want to see running for office less? A goddamn Nazi.

What if I told you we could have Medicare For All AND deal with racism? AND deal with sexism? AND deal with transphobia? AND deal with able is? It doesn't have to be an OR.

I don’t know if there’s a more perfect illustration of the utter fucking nonsense that creative pollution by AI will produce than this choice to illustrate the power of Paramount’s new “localization” and “customization” technology by face-swapping Brad Pitt into the lead role of GET OUT

btw trump bombed another boat today

Someone on TikTok said that it is unfair for this man to be straight and serve like this and honestly.... they're not wrong.

Cuomo: "When I left office ..." Sliwa: "Andrew, you didn't leave—you fled!"

The VOD for Devil Night: A Kids on Bikes Story is now live on @apocunlimited.bsky.social YouTube Channel! A story born of my experiences growing up as a queer brown goth kid in the 90s. #TTRPG #KidOnBikes #ActualPlay #90sHorror #VtM #LARP

The East Wing is home to the Office of the First Lady and has played a key role in women’s visibility in the White House. This week, bulldozers began to tear it down to clear the way for President Donald Trump’s $250 million ballroom.

I kept my Zune for way longer than I should have, just hoping that Microsoft would bring them back.

You are the main character of YOUR story, but I'm not an NPC.
