Social media is fun because you basically just talk to yourself and sometimes a stranger replies to yell at you about why you’re wrong

My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.
This is one reason I keep trying to remind people of the power that we have. That we have *always* had. Not because I’m in denial, but because I know history. I’m no sophisticated intellectual, but I do know we’re going to win even though the bad shit is really terrible right now.
Too many people on Bluesky think that relentless expressions of despair are a sign of intellectual sophistication.

BANANA POEM
Bananas are yellow
A tasty tube fruit
Yummy and boneless
In a tight yellow suit
Bananas with ice cream
Make my heart flutter
Elvis put them in sammies
With smooth peanut butter
They're healthy and filling
And favoured by monkeys
But eat em right quick
Or they get brown and funky

i am trying not to joke about the Epstein stuff because it's so horrible but there's also this ridiculous element where it's like... discovering Dracula is real, he's taken over human society at the highest levels, he's involved in tons of evil and also he's a huge dipshit
