The tactic of "we thought of a complicated, clever reason why the good thing that works is Bad Actually" shows up *everywhere* these days, and I can't tell how much of it is people who desperately need to feel clever and how much is deliberate sabotage.

hi from Minneapolis. these folks are catastrophically overthinking it; the immediate need when agents hit a block is for people that speak *any* language to know it's not safe to go out. that need is far more pressing than whatever this infantilizing "actually it's racist to make noise" shit is.

This, by the way, is why no one trusts your so-called movement: you're more obsessed with internet grudges than you are with real world impacts.
It's fucking pitiful, and you should all be ashamed (not that you're capable).

Also you all never appreciated Lin Manuel Miranda's direction of Tick, Tick... Boom! It was legitimately a great adaptation and probably the best movie musical of the last 20 years.
If you want a good movie adaptation of a Jonathan Larson musical, Tick, Tick... Boom! is right there!

Came across an account on TikTok that had montage videos made to "I Can Go The Distance" about both the Seahawks and the 49ers posted two days ago and that's how you game the algorithm, baby.

And if you think a general strike is logistically impossible but starting a civil war and winning isn't, you're so far disconnected from reality that your opinions are meaningless, because everything that's hard about pulling off a general strike is orders of magnitude harder about winning a war.

"This is the most cursed Bills game yet" oh you sweet summer child. Let me introduce you to Timothy McVeigh placing a $1000 bet on the Buffalo Bills in the 1993 Super Bowl, certain that they couldn't possibly lose three years in a row.
How Football Fed Timothy McVeigh’s Despair
The Oklahoma City bomber was once a promising young Gulf War veteran. His slide into isolation and extremism happened to dovetail with the fate of his beloved Buffalo Bills.

In awe of the patience of this person's wife and two friends who agreed to be subjected to the exact same basic pasta and sauce dish trying out 24 different brands of canned tomatoes, three different times per brand for sake of batch variation.
I probably would have considered divorce.

We have to come together as a social media platform and make “Stephen miller is the real president” part of the conversation
Together we can trigger Trump’s narcissistic injury and little Stevie will be cast aside

This is known among psychiatrists* as the Denethor Effect.

The death spiral for any mental disorder is when you start believing that nothing at all can ever get any better, and that all advice is useless.

As a side note, this is why DBT Skills really didn't work for me, because it was all *surface level* advice, and what I really needed when I was at my worst was cognitive processing therapy which was hard and sucked but helped identify some of those core beliefs that were driving things.

I am a person with a mental disorder who has just about abandoned almost all online communities for said mental disorder because any said community of a certain size almost always starts to turn any genuine advice into "you're just being ableist for expecting me to try and help myself"
This is a great place for people who have well managed mental disorders to find people like them who can sympathize and it is an even better place for people with poorly managed mental disorders to *ruin* themselves and each other by validating your most destructive coping mechanisms.

I have not yet watched Heated Rivalry because I've read enough fanfic in my life that I was positive I was going to see every trope and plot twist coming a mile away but now I'm gonna have to actually watch it because fuck me if I'm gonna let Gary Bettman be more woke than me.
Gary Bettman, talking to reporters in DC, just said he binged all six eps of Heated Rivalry. He likes it.
