Earlier I distinguished the difference between socialism & social democracies (nordic capitalism). Someone asked me why socialism is bad.

In good faith I answered with this thread: 🧵👇

Then they blocked me. 🥸

I wonder if this was a block-worthy assessment of socialism. 🤷‍♀️

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

Today is the 5 year anniversary to when I slowly started losing my mind during the pandemic and began dressing up as works of art.

As my Twitter account has long been abandoned, why not make a thread of my madness on BlueSky?

Started watching Cory Booker speak on the Senate floor 24 hours ago… Since then, I’ve had a full night sleep, got my kids off to school, worked a full day, had dinner with my family. He’s still going; an example of bravery and patriotism. Finally someone in the Senate is doing something!

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Walz: For three days on Fox News, you know the bung holes in the morning talking about, “Walz doesn’t even know who the leader is.” They know who their leader is because their lips are chapped from butt kissing one person

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.
