I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in. What should such fellows as I do; crawling between Earth and Heaven. We are errant knaves all

This is what the $2 bill used to look like before the #FederalReserve existed and before "In God We Trust" was added. This is from 1928. This could have bought about $40 bucks of stuff in today's money back then. #Inflation made US money almost 20 times less valuable in only a century. 😢

The #MAGAt king actually thinks #Medicare recipients will be willing and able to work crops and do farm labor. Tell me this is a glitch in the #matrix or a horrible #nightmare. How do so many people tolerate such #lunacy?

Hello? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone home?

This is #Michelangelo 's "Creation of Adam" #CreationOfAdam. It's not sexually suggestive, it's a work of #art. It's displayed in a church!! #SisteneChapel I'm assuming their moderator AI blurred it and I've appealed it but this is unbelievable. #BlueSkyCensorsArt #BlueSkyCensorship #Censorship

Hey everyone, the moderators running this site just blurred my photo of #Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" #CreationofAdam and labelled my account as continuing #nudity! The painting is displayed in a church!!! This site apparently supports an egregious level of #censorship. #BlueSkyCensorsArt

Full #moon transits in front of #Earth. Seen from the #DSCOVR Deep Space Climate Observatory 9 years back. It's a #spaceweather satellite that hovers in Earth's L1 #lagrangepoint right between the Earth and Sun. I love the beauty of an inverse #eclipse.

So the first twice impeached convicted felon president has just started us down the road to war with Iran....

Insomnia of late.

See, this shit you went through, most people don't know pain like that. They never will. And if they did, it would end them. But the people who dig in, the ones who keep surviving, those are the ones you can't beat. Those are the ones no one can beat.

Because once you've weathered a storm like yours... you become the storm. You hear me? You are the storm. And it's the rest of the world that needs to run for cover. - Mr Robot.

Another hell week less than a year later. Layoffs this week too. So far I'm two days in and haven't gotten an email of doom.

The Dude @androidhumanist.bsky.social · Dec 20

And the winner is, I'm in hell for a year then retire, and I have to watch the US fail. I realize this country was just founded as a tax dodge, but so many great people made it more than that. Now we turn back the clock.

The depression has set in. It's like 2016 but worse. My only hope is that Trump is so old and lunatic that nothing he tries can pass the rule of law. I'm so tired of this. #SoTiredOfThis #SoTired #NeedRetirementVisas_USA_is_Toxic

Shakespeare lived just after the reformation. It must have been hard to live in England as anything other than openly Anglican. They had to lie and pretend, to survive in a world they had no choices in. Seems the MAGA right want the same thing. They'd prefer obsequious autocrats to democrats.

Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?

The Dude @androidhumanist.bsky.social · Nov 6

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin?

The Dude @androidhumanist.bsky.social · Nov 6

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.

The Dude @androidhumanist.bsky.social · Nov 6

and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream, ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,

The Dude @androidhumanist.bsky.social · Nov 6

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more;

#Pennsylvania #HarrisPA We just need Pennsylvania. PA is the one state that will decide the election with its 20 electoral votes and they're at 50% reporting with a slight advantage for Trump. I'm terrified. Once it hits 80% it better be the other way around or damn close. 😱

I would actually prefer Zod to Trump. Both are megalomaniacal convicted felons who should never be allowed to hold any government office. But if I *had* to choose... At least Zod was an environmentalist who tried to stop the destruction of Krypton. #VoteHarrisWalz #HarrisWalz2024 #HarrisWalz
