I mean...now that you say it. Some hair gel and we are kinda there.

Yeah, divided up mine by continents with countries of interest with a separate tab for academics that post research so it doesn't get lost in the noise. Lists are great. Not being able to add people while I'm in the list from those I follow, less so.
April 10, 2025 at 8:08 PM
Yeah, I'd like to see that as well. Gets real crowded real easy.
April 10, 2025 at 7:39 PM
Yeah, doing that right now. Somehow missed that feature completely. Thoughts feeds were all that there was.
April 10, 2025 at 7:22 PM
Nevermind, it is actually, I'm just a dumbass. Thanks. I think it's best to leave it so people that don't know can see as well?
April 10, 2025 at 7:16 PM
Hey Bluesky, could we get an option to curate our own feeds with groups of people we follow? Instead of having to pop open the hood, if we could get an option to create lists of people that would be great.

I think this is what happens when you want kids but don't actually like women. You just go for the bare minimum of contact so as not to get cootiefied.

It seems to be an almost civilizationally spanning characteristic, defference to authority, even when that authority is fascistic. If Trump was the guy outside a 7/11 screaming about tarrifs, everyone would just avoid him. Millions of people voted for him though, so now he is wise...somehow.

Someone's gotta be the kindling for the fires they'll set.

Bannon and Musk sieg heiled and nobody in their surroundings paid it any mind. I don't know how much hope there is for those folks.
April 1, 2025 at 2:49 PM
Well, if the comments are anything to go by, the only adage that isn't absolute balls is the one you don't think about.

He'd defend it with the, it produced the racism as a reaction. The cop out is there in the 2nd half. Watched a recent video from him, he still thinks woke people and cancel culture are relevant topics to be concerned about.

Yeah, as long as their donors go to the same dinner parties as the republican ones that ain't happening...or are just the same ones that give to both sides. Wonder if someone would be willing to start grifting to the right to get the bag from the remaining Koch and then jump the fence.

Maybe also enforce a rule that you can't hold political office after 70? Don't even need to foresee problems there. The democrats are dying in their seats, literally.

I think it's good bread and butter type of content for right wing content creators trying to get their foot in the door. I remember watching a lot of sargon of akkad takedown and commentary videos in my teens. Ragebait is real easy to churn out.

How do you know that it's enough and you don't need to add anymore facts or stories into the book?

Do you think we have been teaching fascism and in general history wrong to elementary and high schoolers? Did textbooks go over such subjects in too shalow a manner maybe?
March 22, 2025 at 3:47 PM
It truly is amazing how someone can identify with the joker and still think they are a good guy.
March 21, 2025 at 5:37 PM
True, they are both numerous and rarely visible. It's very easy to dismiss people.
March 19, 2025 at 11:22 AM
Yeah, if only someone could convince the western liberal elites as well so they can stop running in circles like headless chickens and come out with a coherent ideological framework to staunch the bleeding of voters to fascism.
March 19, 2025 at 10:47 AM
Then if you are from where I'm from you run into the toxic masculinity part of the equation that believes you either work or you die if you have no-one to take care of you. The idea of integrating chronically ill or mentally colourful people into society to them is foreign.
March 19, 2025 at 10:36 AM
I don't think it's just that. I've had a lot of people tell me that people with mental ilness should just push through; or have told me, with crohn's that I just need to get out more. We do have an empathy problem, but it isn't the overabundance of it.
March 19, 2025 at 10:28 AM
So just pants? I can't think of any other differences between them except the useless pockets.
March 16, 2025 at 11:40 PM
Can you get around it if it just keeps on going like this though? These folks are trying to remake the USA in their image. That requires some serious overtime hours and they seem willing to put them in.
March 16, 2025 at 8:09 AM
The silver lining in all of this might be that people drink less simply because of money.
Or moonshiners make a comeback.
March 13, 2025 at 1:38 PM
Maybe it's time to give Gary Stevenson a call again or at least mention his ideas when the topic of "where do we find the money" comes up again. His ideas are good too.
