Just trying to be humane and stay sane by connecting with people and bizarre hobbies I always wanted to learn.
So Social media and is in charge of bringing a diversity of opinions? Meanwhile social media says “we’re not responsible for fact checking”.

So… the news is saying it’ll be biased - flat out. And social media is saying it’ll let the liars keep screaming. What could go wrong?

Why am I even shocked that there is a Trump store? We are officially in the idiocracy.

This book sent me to his other books … and some of those I liked even more. Love this style of lots of research, some human stories, then you find your own path based on a lot of facts.

Ooh, I like your wording. our own legislators acting on the proven disinformation is disturbing.

After commenting on the bill, please in your spare time ask them how this helps their voters. Making it so we have to take time off work to vote helps who exactly? Click on their names to get emails? leg.wa.gov/legislators/

app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1584 we should all be commenting now on this bill before it makes any further.

I hadn’t seen the article - but I love that reddit and Bluesky both got this on my radar. Sneaky little f$ckers.

Sigh, somehow this makes me want to tweet suddenly. I won’t as it’s so not my platform. But I’ve never been banned before.

Fuck me. Google too? Can all these power players just stop doing weird and terrifying things for a while? We’ve got a maniac dismantling our government. We don’t need all these other 1984 style plot lines right now.

Hope parts are free quickly and that the temp holds a few days for you and Judith ❤️

Yeah, I have a dog in order to force myself to walk an hour every day. But nothing like getting onto an actual trail away from home ❤️. That’s a great hobby now

It’s wild that this is reality. I can’t fathom how this OK with people other than blatant misinformation and spinning of stories.

Ah, that makes sense. my boyfriend has been learning German for years because he works for a Swiss company. I tried French when I was a kid, but my pronunciation was unbearable to French people apparently 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Ha! I should do that. I’m trauma reading and being informed is not improving my mental health 😅. Need more hobbies

The failed kind 🙃. Supposed to be a jar full of broccoli and clover sprouts. Instead it’s a sad handful. I’m working on my technique. Luckily they only take a few days - so I can try again any day.

Didn’t you work in visual technologies? Are you part of that aquisition?
January 24, 2025 at 2:56 AM
Ooh, sous vide - tres fancy. Not entire sure what it is- but sounds ooh la la and fun. Why German? I’m still trying Spanish - but that’s going on 3 decades of trying to not be terrible at it 😆

And after actually validating (ugh) that article is there. It’s confusing- but it’s there. It’s not “great” in his ideas, but in his ability to sway the masses and blindly surge ahead despite his failures.

Are the oligarchs just admitting they and the government don’t care about the rest of us blatantly now?
