Love the charts. I wish people were more curious about why people's lived reality doesn't match up with the charts, because nothing is more frustrating to poor people than feeling like they're being gaslit by exasperated Democrats
Everyone has utterly lost the plot about the actual material state of the economy. It's as if the last 4 years did not happen. Denial of the shape of the earth. There's really no other conclusion other than that nothing actually matters anymore. We're through the looking glass into pure vibes.
Just to Start, since this is a member of my discipline either obfuscating the truth or forgetting it: The cost of shelter has risen much faster than the cost of the items used to measure inflation (usually a 'basket of goods')

Clinton should be in prison. Trump should be in prison. Bush should be in prison. Hell, Obama should probably be in prison. Fuck it, elect a dog. There's no rule that says a dog can't be president.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

Seeing a bunch of confused/logic dunk posts about tariffs and while there are a bunch of things that maybe aren't too clear in Trump's strategies he spent what felt like a year acting like tariffs were a tax he could impose on foreign companies & people. He clearly thought he could tax the world.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

This is, I think, one of the biggest things that people struggle with, because our society is steeped in ideas around people inherently being "good" or "evil", "deserving" or "undeserving", and so on, exactly because it's a eugenicist hierarchical society.
This is, of course the divide between conservative and liberal/leftist thought. The right wing is obsessed with what's in people's hearts because they think evil is inherent, something you are or aren't. On the left, we care about actions. Evil is what you DO.
Okay real talk? I kind of don’t even care about what Epstein was or wasn’t attracted to, what matters is what he fucking did and what people participated in and enabled

one dope thing about getting older is actually getting to see some shit you thought was neat many years ago bear fruit. I felt like this following the application of ketamine therapy for treatment resistant depression for like 10+ years, only for it to be a real thing now that saved my life
So, a bunch of my friends back in college actually researched the potential future mRNA applications could have.
I genuinely thought it sounded magical, something that might happen in the next century.
And now it's real! It's effective!
