To add: the whitewashing of Lincoln’s views of black people/the North’s policy of indentured servitude is just sort of brushed off.
The South has always been a scapegoat for racism in this country bc as long as they can point to someone worse, they don’t have to take accountability themselves

The thing about liberal white Yankees saying that the south is unnaturally racist compared to everywhere else is that seems to be a phenomenon that exists only to make the Good White People feel better about themselves, but y'all aren't willing to commit to re-education camps for red states soooo

Finding out Predator Badlands was inspired by Shadow of the Colossus and Monster Hunter makes so much sense. Like oh yeah. Of course.

Miles Morales is 15 years old next year, and Marvel missed the window on giving him a distinct code name after year 2 or 3. Ain’t nobody calling that boy Spin, and no one over the age of 4 is gonna mix him up with Peter, let it go.

The weird liberal image rehab/baby girlification of George W. Bush is an unthinkable evolution of how his presidency was thought of at the time and honestly terrifies me for how Trump will be remembered when someone worse comes along.

One of the weird side effects of how memory-holed the George W. Bush presidency has become is people thinking the political critiques of Wicked are accidentally relevant to our current political climate and not pointedly aimed at another horrifying administration.

I’m incredibly angry right now. The fact that people had the nerve to harass my girlfriend over a criticism to the point where she took it down is sickening.
Whoever did this, I hope you’re happy that you silenced a woman’s voice for having a difference of opinion from yours. Fuck you.

I've been bombarded with harassment all night.
I've been called a transphobe, a ragebaiter, the problem with Bluesky and so much other garbage and my attempts to distract myself have been impeded by more harassment.
I'm sorry I don't like your stupid fucking series.

I mean... accurate, but it's a rhetoric thing 🤷♂️
People don't really HATE "aristocracy," just 'bad guy ones.' "Aristocrat" sounds like PBS/BBC shows about pretty dresses or cartoons about fancy kitties 😅
"Oligarch" sounds like a monster The Hobbit fights 👍 It sounds Russian - NOBODY likes them 😉

I actually take issue with Bernie’s insistence on calling the US an “oligarchy”.
Because when you have a class of landlords who inherit all their wealth, own all the land, and a small handful of powerful families keep ruling the country, that’s actually an “aristocracy.”

The important thing to bear in mind as Trump's popularity begins to wobble is that the disastrous economic consequences of the things he's done in the first 10 months of this term have not even *begun* to hit. We've been coasting on the fumes of the economy he inherited and soon they'll be gone.
my wife and her entire team were fired over Zoom from their program manager jobs at a local nonprofit Seattle hospital this Spring because Trump just stopped paying Medicaid reimbursements. and this is a relatively affluent urban center
we're really not prepared for what's coming
we're really not prepared for what's coming
As a direct result of President Trump's Big Ugly Bill, almost 300 jobs will be cut from Providence Swedish's First Hill, Cherry Hill, Ballard, and Issaquah hospitals and clinics. These are not the only layoffs we've seen in our health care system in Washington state in recent months.
