for the record, if you reply to my posts expressing that you think that maybe Trump is an invincible mastermind who can get away with anything, and I don't know you, I'll probably block

I'm gonna pin this so also, for the record, if I don't follow you, please do not take that personally

I shit you not when I say there's a chance the GOP may damn well lose the House even BEFORE the mid-terms. Credible reports of 20 GOP reps potentially resigning in unison. First, let me say BWHAHA EAT A DISEASED DICK. Also, YOU WILL NEVER FUCKING KNOW FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR CRIMES.

One day I'll turn my wireframe of Leviathan the Commonwealth, a White Wolf game where you play controlling members of an government agency or corporation that manifests as a Kaiju for giant monster fights in the Realm of Public Truth, into a full thing.

My grandmother got shingles in 1990. By the time she was finally prescribed steroids it was too late. They were permanent. She spent 10 years in constant excruciating pain. It destroyed her QoL entirely. My grandfather was destroyed by her care. He killed himself 2 wks after she died. Get the vax.
people gotta talk about their shingles experiences. no one is going to enjoy this
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

you don't get to fuck the elephants and cover the circus, that's like the most basic journalistic ethics imaginable and I'm sorry I don't care if the elephants were dominating and patriarchal or whatever, if those are insurmountable obstacles for you why do you have the prestige job

stop letting the worst people alive just randomly claim to be autistic as a cover for their horrible horrible antisocial behavior, being autistic doesn't make you a fucking monster, and it hurts autistic people to allow fucking monsters to claim autism as a shield without challenge

Welcome to the jungle
Our work week's just 4 days
And everyone gets medical
Plus a good 401K
And if you are harrassed
In any way sexually
HR will get on top of that
With confidentiality
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
My... My... My employee
Oooh
We hope you will succeed!

Uh does anyone want some very very very hard earned wisdom about overhyping a game early in its development cycle?

I think a large part of this that there's this sense that the provincially minded broke whatever implicit truce existed and are now attempting to burn down universities because they had to see a gay person on TV.

It's hard to know how much to blame the internet specifically, because the trend had been going for quite a while and probably got off the ground with Fox News, but absolutely yes

I think also part of what the internet did was allow disparate rural areas to form cross-cultural bonds with other rural areas.

It’s forming a rural culture that’s just their shared resentment to cosmopolitanism rather than like something that was just a little less exposed.

more seriously I think the main problem here is that mass media in general and social media specifically really, really broke the societal pressure valve of allowing the kind of latently prejudiced to sort of passively opt out of change. ragebait is fundamentally corrosive to social cohesion.

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

By using Elphaba as the new scapegoat, replacing the animals as the source of problems in the minds of the populace. This is Elphaba's plan, it is my reading of the song No Good Deed.
