Smart. I should find the block lists and use them. I just woke up today to seeing all these magats on here and felt the need to say something.

SMH, so sad you can't see reason and facts. Sorry snowflake, its facts not feelings.

Well then why would the Dems need one? Seems to me they just need to agree on some things to move this forward.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · 2d

Do the republicans?

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · 2d

situation for them. Letting the right and their voters feel the pinch of an administration that holds all the power but is unwilling to wield it in the best interest of the least wealthy, shows the American people that we are not being represented by people who care about us.

Because what they are asking for is something that would help Americans and actually includes zero illegal immigrant rights. It keeps healthcare premiums down, things Trump signed into law on his first term. Republicans are unwilling to even consider talking about this. It's a total all-or-nothing

I mean, if that's what you want your life to be about. We get good at the things we practice. If you practice being angry, and vindictive, you get good at it. If you want to be good at those things, I guess keep on. Otherwise, try practicing something more peaceful.

I bet he will invite everyone in to see it and it will be open to the public because we paid for it. Right? Because he obviously wouldn't funnel tax dollars into a ballroom for him to brag about. Right? Nor would he use tax payer money to gild everything in the white house so it looks gaudy as shit

They need 7 votes. That's it. So how do you get those votes? Maybe talk? Guess who has been showing up every day to talk?The Democrats. Guess who has been ignoring them so they can politicize the shutdown? The Republicans.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · 2d

No. They shouldn't.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · 2d

Let's be clear: Republicans own the house, senate, and presidency. It's a failing of Republican leadership and they are using Democrats as a scapegoat boogeyman. Ya'll, if intelligence were money, you and your voters wouldn't have two nickles to rub together.

I see the right is still spending their time wisely. Says a lot about you that you spend your time taking enjoyment of others. The right would let Trump shit in their mouth if it meant that liberals had to smell it.

Hegseth is a drunk coward. What a fucking cringe of a man. He acts like some big tough dude but he's just a glorified podcaster in a position of power because he's buddies with the boss.

Okay, are you just trying to capture the post WW2 era boom again? Because in order to do that you would have to defeat the current administration since they are the fascists.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · 2d

Fuck off, skin job. The Dems are fighting for this country while this administration pulls it (and the people) apart. You're contribution to it will land you on the wrong side of history.

I have a close friend who's been using gamepass for years canceling today over this. Seems like the beginning of then end.

Got a pretty big and important job interview in a few minutes and my body chose to give me the scardey-poops. Gotta love anxiety.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · Sep 18

I've been made aware. Thank you for your service. Carry on.

If anyone wants real change in this country we need to demand our leadership take actual action or we need to vote out the leadership that is not serving us. This censorship and authoritarianism has got to stop. If Trump is not afraid to get rid of Kimmel, he's are not afraid to get rid of you.

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · Sep 18

Okay, but what is actually going to be done about it?

Talkren @talkren.bsky.social · Sep 12

It's wildly surreal to see the media trying to explain internet slang to those that don't know. This shooter was a shitposter and his engraving show that but its not lost on me hearing the news say shit like "...yes and 'OwO' is an emoticon that denotes surprise but in a cute and shy way."

RIP random FBI guy who has to go home and divorce his wife because he's gay now. Sad to see it, but rules are rules.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.

And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.

I refuse to sanitize him.

Might be relevant right about now.

"Gatekeeping" has turned into a catch-all for anyone trying to correct someone inside a hobby community, even done politely. Im into bonsai and see new people get corrected by veterans and they say "quit gatekeeping". Okay, fine but you'll end up with a dead tree.
