But if you’re trans and don’t like Newsom because he is literally vetoing bills that improve your life… that’s too bad. If you wanted to be taken seriously, you should have invented some hypothetical voter and pretended there were tons of them, rather than having a stake in the conversation yourself

I just don’t know if I’ve ever seen anyone who actually thinks the systemic deprivation of rights to minorities and immigrants and poor people is a true evil that must be resisted, but goes “none of that matters enough if those people over there can exist without constant torment”.

Have any of the “we must abandon trans people and move to the center” folks ever cited anything showing that there is a large faction of people for whom depriving trans people civil rights is the sole issue that prevents them from voting Democrat Because…gotta say, that sounds like an ephemeral bloc

It’s great she’s showing an interest, but ever since my girlfriend started texting Kristi Noem, she keeps asking me about my plans to visit my aunt and forces me to answer directly into her cleavage.

I’m sure it’s nothing.

You can say that there shouldn’t be Die Hard sequels, except that Die Hard with a Vengeance is fantastic and flips the formula extremely well.

There are apparently 2 billion Bluesky posts now and I’m fairly certain a solid third of those are about cats, actually. Fix yo shit, Bluesky.

Screenshot showing result of search for cat, showing “no results found for cat.

So is search just…not working on Bluesky now? No matter what term I type, it returns zero posts.

If anyone is wondering why I followed you today, it’s probably because it’s freaking hockey time and someone had you on a hockey starter pack. Blame them. I’m just here for takes.
