Weak & Powerless,
With All The Gifts I Could Ask For.
Strange Brain; Broken Eidetics,
That Can Remember Things Seen Or Heard,
Only Once.
Yet Polymath Masteries Or Not -
Nobody Seems To Want Me.
Too Smart & Clever For Own Good.
Hanlon's Razor,
Dunning-Kruger Effect,
Damning Me To Poverty,
Forever.

Goodnight,
Void.
Old.
Haggard.
But Somehow Still Fighting.
To Do The Right Thing.
For Children.
Living,
Dead,
Even Yet Unborn.
I Mourn All The Millions Of Bright Futures -
I Can See.
But Which I Cannot Affect.
Or Failed To Effect -
& Lost To Suicide.
Void?
I'll Keep Fighting.
Gotta Go Down Swinging.

There's no code of ethics that exists anymore for the journalistic editors, but there never was one for most private industry work, anyways.

But my back hurts. Ugh. Move anyways old lady.

McRaeWrites @mcraewrites.bsky.social · 14h

Okay, enough hellsite owned by fascist leadership. I gotta get outta here, almost 6pm & still in bed in abject horror & anger at modern fascism.

Nice to see Sen. Gallego and Kelly going to bat for Adelita Grijalva, as they and everyone else should be.
Speaker Johnson is stalling her swearing-in because her vote would help finally reveal the Epstein files.

Speaks to the people who have always had stability & calm & privilege & resources, that they'll tolerate open fascism to avoid giving up even a modicum of comfort to protect their neighbours & communities from masked goons. I remember living in trailer in the fucking bush for summers sans utilities.

We aren't fighting fascism right now

and most people aren't willing to admit that because they don't want to say

" I am invested in a world where I am UNABLE to wield certain privileges when I am uncomfortable"

America is a failed state. The minute that orange fascist dementia-ed POS broke their precious Consitution multiple multiple times & nobody did anything about it? US needs to be balkanized yesterday to diminish the coming bloodshed by these fascist neonazis.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

The stupidity & ignorance being so rife that they aren't even good liars.

Antifascist means Antifa is pro Fascist?

Fuckin' idiots don't even know or care what words mean anymore, just more rambling lying bullshit to handwave what they want with zero pushback or legal accountability.

Danielle Froom 🏳️‍🌈 @danifroom.bsky.social · 14h

The media's really just going to bounce over the fact that at Trump's meeting today they said "we've been fighting antifa for a hundred years, since they tried to stop us in 1930s Germany" and everyone nodded along, huh

McRaeWrites @mcraewrites.bsky.social · 14h

Full on Nazi Fascist shit. Attacking Human Rights, Lying & Using Blatant Propaganda, False Imprisonment, Breaking Laws, & Worse.

Fascists are here & WW2 gave us the solution last time.

it always blows my mind when these people act like “the left just calls everyone nazis” these days and it’s like no. we’re calling nazis nazis! there just happens to be a lot of them in and around the government these days!

Eli Valley @elivalley.bsky.social · 17h

More history from this Nazi adulated by the Trump team. These are explicit, proud Nazis who scream and cry and call every referee they can find when you quote their Nazism back to them.

What happens to any Fae,
When words are meaningless -
Sans any true intent?
If words could be as meaningless as lies,
Then what is point of any verbal deal,
Or agreement?
If made via pure apathy,
Or conniving schemes?
Unseelie,
Myself,
Refuse To Play Such Letter-Law Games.
Intent Matters To Me Most.

The word "news" in the corner of the screen as Rupert Murdoch blatantly hires the same guy to be every masked scapegoat they need is just... Proof Murdoch needs to be tried & jailed for crimes against Humanity at this point.
