We really need to just start calling out the “speak positivity” spiritual bypassers for the toxic control freaks they are
That man really sat in the car and told me that saying “weekend” is speaking a spell over yourself. You’ll be weakened 🤣🤣🤣

Then he said you gotta do your research

Dems are handling white people the way they’ve usually only handled marginalized folks and it’s wild to witness

The goal is grey rock interpersonally , utter destruction structurally

It’s not “silent treatment” if I honestly don’t want to talk to you because you use any interaction as an excuse to be a manipulative abuser

Grey rock is minimum contact with no info

BUT IN SERVICE OF DOING OTHER THINGS

also if you notice you're complimenting someone when they're not around, tell them the compliment directly, it might be the only way they ever find out people are saying nice things about 'em
Hey, say something nice to your internet pals today, okay? We're all overwhelmed all the time with so much negativity, it can be nice to consciously break that.

They think everything is narrative
UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

I just need like 10k . I want 500k and I’m grateful for what I have

But my hod I am offended by how much I have to think about money when I have other stuff to do!

I need to be doing META DATA

There's also a line most "empaths" need to find- which is you can understand why someone is like they are or does what they do- and still condemn actions as harmful even if you don't condemn a person.
You do not have to throw the baby out with the bathwater but the bathwater must be thrown out.

Yeah nah
Pushing a long term ally to fold because someone supported you late and weakly?

With no direct quotes from the candidate or the campaign
basically, politics

Mamdani isn’t his dad.

And it’s wild how folks who were critiquing Mamdani for lack of experience

As well Ossé left DSA in 2021

So any discussions would solely about WFP and Dem
Hakeem Jeffries is about to get a primary challenger.

I'm just going to point out here that in both instances of NYT saying that Mamdani tried to stop him from running, they have zero people on the record, and it doesn't even look like they asked Mamdani for comment at all.

If no one’s feelings are wrong? Then you and the Dems would have a much clearer message to tell us

And the message would not be “uhm sure this feels bad but we have bigger fish to fry.. enjoy your sky rocketing premiums”
No one’s feelings are wrong. That’s not my point. We’re in a real battle, against a corrupt and malevolent foe, with huge stakes. We must win.

Again ask your average exvangelical about a “nice church lady”
Or your average decent woman about the REAL folks of mean girls

It’s the people claiming to be for you, while using YOUR power and work for their gain

And minimizing you in public

It’s gross and abusive

I know it’s a dunk, but forcing people to deal with your uncleanliness is a sign of domination and control.

It’s heavily racialized because so many non western cultures especially post colonization emphasized it heavily

So that's why he hates people eating with the hands so much

What’s “internal”

Because apparently some of us are not on the inside and in EIGHT MONTHS you and your party have not listened or issued real statements that show us that

We’ve seen more briefings on abandoning “special interests” than actual outreach

While we get tear gassed in your cities
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.
November 10, 2025 at 10:15 PM
No. Stop it’s cruel and condescending and tiresome . It’s been a year of bad communication, mockery and targeted decimation.

don’t tell us where to put our energy

Tell us how you have made and will make the issues grow away and how you understand us

We are not the same sir and Dems showed that
But there are real dangers out there that must be fought; and energy spent fighting each other is energy lost to that bigger fight.

I respect the transparency in this, but the problem Senate Ds created is people don’t trust them to really fight for us. This will make it so much harder for them in Dec & Jan, because average voters are gonna be like, ‘We’ll believe it when we see it.’ And Senate Dems did to themselves.
That December vote is a huge moment we can turn into a victory. People are watching. Good bill, we win; they cheat, they will lose. If we fight united.

I don’t know how to frame it

But there is a very real essay inside about how people who are downwardly mobile / can’t hide their contempt for people who are really poor and often get openly abusive about it interpersonally
