Saw a Reddit post where a guitarist was asking what to do when he doesn't feel motivated to practice. Half the replies were like, "Oh, I always want to practice!" or "I don't know how to stop practicing!" and like I'm happy for you guys but you're not really solving the problem at hand, you know?

as a constitutional originalist i stay true to our founders' idea of America as a sinister beacon luring victims to wastelands littered with corpses and shambling skeletal living ghosts. a pitcher plant so sickly sweet in smell you notice far too late the great mound of rotting flesh it grows from 🇺🇸

$39 a year folks. Thats what killing 600,000 to date will save you.
Would it be nice to live on a world where every country with the means worked to make the world a better place?
Yes. Of course.
In the meantime if you say preventing the deaths of millions isn’t worth $3 a month, fuck you.

I dunno. I do like our government spending less money anywhere they can. I like even more if my taxes go down as a result. Since when is our job to be the world’s mom and dad? Did other countries step up to fill that gap?

Not that there could ever be any justification for cutting off this kind of aid, but what did we even gain from this? Half a million dead and for what? The thrill of owning the libs?
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc
The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands
The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

You can’t gleefully cheer on the demonization and firing of civil servants in the place they all live then be upset that your neighbors don’t care if you live or die. Vogt said he wanted government employees scared to go to work, this is the political environment they built.
There's so many of these btw, NoVa right wingers realizing that their neighbors genuinely hate them

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.
