Well this is an account I was using for different things, but instead of actually blocking a hundred folks over on my old main account I’m just going to migrate here and not deal with the headache.

Only following folks who don’t shrug at the things that make me angry.

Yep, the level of vicious bigotry is extreme and we can cannot give an inch. There is a movement on the far right, supported by billionaires and powerful people in the White House, who want to ethnically cleanse Somalis from the U.S., and we must describe it as such and treat it as such.
This is the "testing the waters" phase of the playbook. The GOP ecosystem targets groups like Somalis, Haitians, and trans people specifically because they've calculated that the average person's passive disapproval won't ever turn into active defense. They're exploiting public apathy.
i'm really having a hard time getting past the "surely we can all agree that Somalis are worse than trash" thing. this feels new and very bad

Been thinking about the Platner tattoo thing.

I’m as open as you’ll find among leftists to welcoming in ex-idiot shithead edgelords with terrible tattoos and a history of awful comments/behaviors.

But you have to prove the “ex-“ part, and even then that doesn’t mean you should get a Senate seat.

When someone doesn’t know how curmudgeonly I am and shows me something I viscerally hate, but I’m trying to be nice so I just nod and pretend it’s really cool.

I just watched this this morning and it was right, and infuriating, and terrifying, and enraging, and I wish someone would do something. Anything. At all.
Ayer veía este video de @hankgreen.bsky.social y es increíble como usaron la Argentina de prueba piloto.

En el video habla de la crueldad del gobierno y que toman la desición de quitarle la comida a la gente con la excusa de que "no hay plata"

I guess I don't know if she was ever "raveled" in the first place but everytime I see this Karen show up in the news she seems like she's becoming more and more unraveled slowly over time.

BOSTON (AP) — Judges order the federal government to use contingency funds for SNAP food aid payments during the shutdown.

I cancelled a monthly sub & created a sustaining donation in the same amount for the NC food bank equivalent to 175 meals a month. Now my dollars are not going into the economy bc I'm helping an org when the govt refuses to. Think about the wider economic implications of the lack of SNAP.

I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So you won't catch me repeating the rumors about JD Vance and Erika Kirk.

Sharks broadcast going absolutely ga-ga over Orlov having a physical game and “what if he can do this every night!”, and I feel obligated to point out…

This is the deceptive promise of Orlov. I’m a big fan of the guy, but he’ll have 1-2 of these games and then not throw a big hit for a month.

Unlike in previous years, there really isn’t any shame in losing to this Sharks team. They’re okay! They’re competitive.

There is a lot of shame in getting the doors blown off you by this Sharks team, and only being able to score 1. They’re not that good, especially defensively and in goal.
