The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

"How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavoured to form? His limbs were in proportion, and I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful! Great God!"
Made a colour variant Mr. Blobby because nobody can stop me anymore. I am beyond consequences.

The only thing that could bring me back to loving star wars again.... Mara Jade movie.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Then come up with a name for yourselves that doesn't erase the other *34* countries in the Americas
If your argument involves referring to Americans as “USians” it doesn’t matter how cogent the rest of your point may be tbh

Love to be awake at 2:30am getting angry over things already past and arguing with someone in my head. This is very productive and won't make sleep more difficult at all. Especially in my non-painkillered state.

There has literally never been a universal basic income trial program that didn't deliver real and measurable results above and beyond any other form of social welfare, and every time another concludes with the same findings the powers that be go "interesting! Anyway," and pretend it wouldn't work.

Which is why "affordable" housing more often excludes homeless people, and people on welfare, as they are priced out of it by being too poor
In “social” housing, the umbrella term for both public and community homes, rent is determined by income – people typically pay 25-30%. Affordable housing, however, is linked to market rent, with people receiving a discount of 20% or more.

Last night I had a dream that we were adopted by a HUGE domestic shorthair tuxedo cat and we named him Wide Piñata at his own suggestion. Pin-Pin for short.

We’re watching a shift where AI simulates the cohesion and reinforcement that used to require an entire online community. A single person can now build a complete parallel reality with nothing more than a prompt window. Which seems bad.
