Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

I was in Ireland for a school trip when I was 15 and when walking around in a Superman shirt, I heard “AAYY, SUPERTITS!”
Hey @mattyzaddy.bsky.social, anything fun to contribute?

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.
All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

Not to mention that there's no place called the "Miracle Mile Shopping Center" in Chicago? He is maybe talking about Water Tower Place or Michigan Avenue more broadly. But right now he's advocating troops for a nonexistent location.

Be a good neighbor and shovel, but be careful shoveling this morning, Chicago. Wet, heavy snow mixed with slush and autumn leaves still falling means a serious risk for injury. #HeartAttackSnow

if you need another reason to boycott Target
A caravan of Border Patrol and ICE agents, including a van with abducted individuals, drove out of the Target on Peterson Ave across from Rosehill Cemetery around 11:30 this morning, Nov 3. They came from the service vehicle loading dock, where it seemed Target allowed them to remain for some time

Lesley is absolutely one of our industry’s best and this is such an important reminder for everyone but especially cities like Chicago where our neighbors are being hunted down and taken by Nazi fucks with no regard to our laws, let alone human decency.
Hey, so as a veteran and incident responder I need to warn you to pay attention to something in America.
The human brain is resilient. While you're watching kids get dragged away from the parents and people being beaten in the streets, you're accumulating trauma but also being desensitized.
