Unapologetic pragmatic leftist, unironic SJW, Arizona Cardinals fan, pro wrestling fan (PRO WRESTLING, not WWE), and he/him. Not necessarily in that order.

Old enough for my 18th birthday to have kids in college.

I support the transgender mice.

Oh no, chain emails have evolved from the 90s into current social media!

Awaiting my inclusion in "repost this and you'll get 10 cents for every like" and "repost this and if it doesn't get at least 50 likes you'll be cursed" posts.
A screenshot of a BlueSky repost with the names redacted and an image of a circle with the text "You've been thrown a FRIENDSHIP BALL. Throw it to someone who is special to you! A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end. It keeps us together, like our circle of friends."

More ICE commercials during AEW tonight, so here is the feedback form for TNT.

Attached is the feedback I gave as an example to spark ideas on what to say. I tend to try to come across as more reasonable in these things, but please put things in your own words that convey your own sincerity.
Screenshot of a text editor with the title "Additional Information". The text content reads: "Please do not air ads for ICE. Right now ICE is a highly controversial government agency, and allowing their ads to run on your network gives the appearance of taking sides in the current controversy involving that agency. Regardless of the legitimacy or not of the agency, ICE is viewed as responsible for the disappearance of many people's family, friends, and neighbors. Associating your network with them will create an association with many in their minds that will likely cause them (as it does me) to view your network and company in a very negative light that cannot be worth the money in the short-term. Thank you for your consideration of this."

Mine's just the opposite, he thinks he's much fancier than he is! He's very full of himself.

The CATO Institute (you know, that well-known "leftist" think-tank) did a study on political violence. Guess what they found?
Diagram titled "Ideology of political murders." The accompanying text reads: "As Trump calls for a crackdown on the “radical left,” an analysis from the CATO Institute of 620 politically motivated murders since 1975 shows that when 9/11 is excluded, most political violence comes from the right." Below this, a donut chart is titled "Murders by ideology in politically motivated terrorism since 1975, excluding 9/11." The chart shows the following breakdown: Right, 391; Islamism, 143; Left, 65; Unknown/Other, 9; Foreign Nationalism, 8; Separatism, 4. The source is "CATO INSTITUTE." The TIME logo is in the bottom right.

When should we expect to see your declaration of war on the far-right?
Screenshot of a tweet from David Shuster @DavidShuster According to Utah officials + police interviews with his family, Tyler Robinson hated Charlie Kirk because Kirk wasn't conservative enough. (Robinson reportedly admired Nick Fuentes). GOPer's now scrubbing X posts about dems faster than DOJ erases Trump name in Epstein files.

And not only is Donnie getting smoked, he's (potentially) partly getting smoked by a hispanic woman!
Picture of Camille Zapata, a part of Gavin Newsom's social media team, with the following text: "Say hello to Camille Zapata, the genius behind Gavin Newsom's social media posts. She leads the team of 3 brilliant people trolling 47 by mimicking his words and poor grammar. The team has an incredible spirit, feistiness and ability to sound exactly like Donny. They. Don't. Back.

Hero (2002). Overshadowed by Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but a fantastic movie.

I certainly trust her solid few years of progressive messaging more than a person with replies and quote replying disabled.
Post saying that leftists supporting an ex Republican is a common mistake they continue repeating without learning a lesson.

The Trump Effect
The S&P 500 has fallen 455 points (7.5%) from when Trump took office and 550 points (8.9%) from its high only a month ago. This should be called "The Trump Effect".
