I have like. 4 times the followers that I did on the other site - largely due to being on a list or two.
But.
I don't really know what y'all are expecting!
Probably going to be a random mix of dog photos, various other photos, and me screaming into the void that is late stage capitalism 👍🙃

I've lived most of my life without my dad, who died young from brain cancer. I understand acutely the longing to talk to someone who's gone. But I'll never understand how anyone is remotely comforted by a predictive text generator babbling using your loved one's face and voice. That's not them.
The latest iteration of this doomed cycle is... a product that shows us what it would be like if you could pull up an avatar of a dead loved one on your phone whenever you wanted to and "talk" with them. www.welcometohellworld.com/for-all-thei...

What I wouldn’t give for one more “99¢ highball night” at The Corral circa 2005/2006.
When I was out clubbing every weekend I thought it was normal that every song was about drinking. Kesha, Far East Movement, LMFAO...
Turns out Millennials just really liked getting trashed to music about getting trashed.
Tbh I'd like one more night in 2010 😄🥳

Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists.
You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man, but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

Hate against Indigenous people is on the rise in Canada.
It often masquerades as convenience-conditional allyship, which is really only cosplay allyship.

Posted a wrong link to this yesterday. Was just pointing out that things remain the same - it's far too easy to get mad at Indigenous Peoples or newcomers than face the fact that this system is trying to kill us all.

As I said weeks ago, not funding SNAP would cause store sales to crater across America, putting store workers at risk of not only not getting food stamps but having their hours cut!
