We are all in a state of constant panic and terror. It’s important to take a second when you see something online that triggers you to ask yourself “am it really triggered or am I just experiencing nonstop psychic damage from the world and my brain sees this as an outlet for my fear and rage.”

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.

The levels of grift in the hate-your-body economy continue to reach for new levels of creative destruction with the onset of GLP-1s. I’m watching them spin up a “loose skin” panic in real time.

I’m not sure America can exist without the idea that bodies must be punished.

There was a guy I worked with in corporate video that told me if you have unreasonable, ignorant clients that want to fuck up their own production, you can try to stop them "but sometimes you have to give them the controls and let them crash the plane"
CBS has scrubbed Dokoupil’s botched segment from what it calls the “full broadcast” of his Evening News debut, re-recording it for YouTube viewers. Watch how markedly different it is: youtu.be/uJjWTFZW2Eo

Guess who has the flu? and that's with the vaccine

RFK can go to hell
1). The US is in the middle of the worst flu season in a decade.
2). Pertussis cases are the highest they have been in 20 years.
3). Measles has rebounded and elimination status has been lost.
RFK.Jr. has not recommended vaccination, instead he is aggressively rolling back vaccine policy.

Twitter is owned by a fascist, Facebook and the Washington Post have gone MAGA, and now CBS News is about to be turned into far-right state TV. Here’s why America has a liberal media bias problem.

If you’re such a Big Deal on Twitter, why don’t your followers follow you to another platform? You’re, an infielder, right? You tell people what to do, right?

Maybe you’re not the Big Deal you thought you were
