A side effect of having a kid who never sees toy commercials (bc all we do is watch Netflix) is that her Xmas list is things that straight up DO NOT EXIST.

journalists need to start bringing a bag of tomatoes with them
RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

Daughter is going to school dressed as Fionna from Adventure Time, so I'm making her a needle-felted Cake to bring with her. So far I've only stabbed myself once!

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.
Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

A shell company bought the commercial property where my favorite coffee shop is. The rent has doubled. Coffee shop is closing.
Why is this "progress"? I know there are so many other things going on, but this... ugh...
FUCK GREED and the people who worship money above all else.

I need help thinking of my protest sign for this weekend. For the last several protests I've had a "SCIENCE makes America great" sign, but I think I need a new one.
My only (rather meh) idea so far is a bull saying, "This is some ME shit."

We didn’t need another Tron movie we need another Reboot(1994) that will teach the kids of today that playing video games can kill the sentient beings inside the computer and that going on the internet will cause you to age exponentially.
