It took Nietzsche like four books to say this but this poster just...skeeted it out.
This is what happens when your entire politics is revenge, retribution, and anger. You can never build anything because building requires dreaming and dreaming requires joy.

Anyone else in the US able to get back on TikTok? Because I can, and I’m confused

I hope to find community here after the TikTok ban. Hi I’m Ben. I love D&D, cosplay, brewing mead, high fantasy and sci-fi. Anti-racist, anti-fascist, pro reproductive rights… you get the idea.

Rumors swirling of massive ICE raids in predominantly blue state cities starting Monday.

DO NOT COMPLY.

-Do not talk to ICE officers or answer their questions
-Do not honor any warrant not signed by a judge
-Do not consent to searches
-And if you know any undocumented immigrants, NO YOU DON'T.

This is dumb. Oh, and just a reminder that the Pod has yet to save America.

If y’all in the media keep talking about the Greenland, Canada, Panama bullshit, you’ll end up missing the truly horrifying things that could actually happen.

Well he’s 83, so yeah. I’d say one more 6 year term should do it.

Sorry, your policy doesn’t include thoughts and prayers.

Anthem might want to rethink this one after today. I’ve read the comments sections on the United Health guy and there is ZERO sympathy. Just sayin’

If the motive is a denied claim, this was always inevitable. And I’m surprised it hasn’t happened sooner or more frequently.
