I'm not a lawyer but if you call someone a 'fucking bitch' after you shoot them 3 times in the face does that show malicious intent?

We’re not all like them, and that’s one of the reasons they hate us.
They think we’re being stuck up or fake by having genuine human compassion and not being entirely consumed by greed

The next time someone tells you the civil war isn't about slavery, I want you to imagine a hot August day in Georgia, as these union soldiers, starving, dying, surrounded by their sick comrades,

Thing that my brain keeps doubling back to:
If a car is rolling, shooting the driver will make sure the driver can't turn or brake, so the car will continue its course, which is exactly what someone in front of the car wouldn't want.

we need to be nourishing ourselves regularly so that there's enough bandwidth for action
AND
so that our spirits are strong enough to say no to the motherfuckers who want us to concede and fold
(all the people who didn't just follow orders? what were THEIR inner resources? Yeahhhh.)

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans fearmongered about gov agents going door to door.
It was their whole argument for the 2nd amendment.

Renee Nicole Good is the one whose reputation should be protected, whose death should be marked by flags across the country being lowered to half-staff, who should be getting tearful tributes and acknowledgments from politicians and media figures. These are the people we ought to honor.

Global law, including trade and oh I dunno not fucking kidnapping other world leaders from their beds ffs, only works on large-scale buy-in.
And it’s not by accident that the period from the end of WWII until now has been the most widely prosperous in all of human history.

Also the easiest way to help your community is to mask in public.
If you have an angry reaction to that you need to sit with yourself and examine why you don't want the most vulnerable populations in your area protected.

If you have had covid then the flu might kill you.
It mightve even before covid which is why we all cautioned folks against saying things like "just a flu". But now? If you've had covid, you should be responding to the world as though you have an immune deficiency, if you want to survive.
Mask up.

Society is *already* collapsing. The workforce *has been decimated* by COVID-related disability (that means at least 1/10th of the workforce prior to COVID-19 coming along is no longer able to work).

This could be one party's primary, and the other party can have the strange women in ponds thing, and I'm willing to wager it would improve matters.
One of my most popular posts on the other site we don’t talk about was a suggestion that we replace the entirety of Congress with shelter cats and I stand by it.
