I want to be more active on here but I'm tired of all my social media being all trump all the time.
I miss when social media was mostly silly fun things rather than doom and gloom constantly, but I guess that reflects the world right now.

Only unbelievable if you never researched project 2025.
Seriously people you don't have to keep wondering what they'll do next.
They wrote it down, released it online.
And still 2/3s of Americans couldn't be bothered to vote against it.

Decided a week or so ago to start writing down a variety of stories from my life purely for archival purposes...but it's turned into something a lot more than that.
Stay tuned for more, but I plan on making a substack and releasing them one chapter at a time.

Been away from paying attention to politics that closely.
Boy am I glad everything is normal and nothing crazy is going on.
Certainly no global network of pedophiles headed by an orange faced clown that's for sure.

Holy mother of god. I wasn't even in high school yet. I have never felt so old.
Where were you when Rich Hill made his MLB debut on June 15, 2005?
I was at John J. Daly Elementary School… as a fourth grader!

I wish whenever Democrats did the boilerplate "Of course I believe that violent or destructive protesters should be arrested," they'd add, "Unlike our president who pardons them if they are beating on cops for him."

Used to live a couple of blocks away from here when I lived in LA. Unbelievable to see military deployed for intimidation purposes.

I wanted to buy onions the other day.
Picked up 4 or 5 white onions, put them in a bag. Then saw "product of USA." Put them back. Bought Canadian yellow onions instead.
And I've only lived here since January.
I want as little of my money going to the US as possible, and I'm by no means alone.

They never talk about their own privilege of living the lives they do without the pitchforks coming out
Stephen Miller: "The writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion. So I would say that's an option we're actively looking at."

Sure sounds like DOGE knowingly broke a bunch of government systems so they could give contracts to their billionaire buddies to rebuild them
For pretty much any government agency you can think of, if their software doesn't work, the agency doesn't work. DOGE fucked up the FAA's software, and people are going to die because of it.

But he was able to manipulate the stock market a variety of times so he and his billionaire buddies could time the market with options trading, so if you're a billionaire sociopath it has been wildly successful
So instead of trade deals he’s just going to publicly negotiate with himself until he walks back the tariffs?
We get a couple of months of supply chain shock and nothing to show for it besides damaged relationships across the world.

Totally agree. I just haven't been able to get interested in shows like Succession, White Lotus, etc because I'm so bombarded with rich people's bullshit in real life that I really could not care less about fictional petty rich person squabbles.

Fuck you, MAGA voters. Also fuck you US media for minimizing so many abhorrent things along the way which led to this being normalized.
Why is this ICE raid of American citizens NOT a national story? Google News says it’s not.
Plus, how does ICE have authority in Oklahoma City to break in a home without wearing uniforms? It’s 400+ miles from the border.
