To me the Charlie Kirk thing seems like the system was working as intended no? If anything, and if the right continues to slide into fascism, it's just the beginning.

When Trump was officially announced as the winner of the election that's basically how I coped. I kept telling myself that Trump and his administration would compound the contradictions in the system that have been getting worse over decades leading to it's collapse. I still hold on to some hope.

Nah. Apolitical/apathetic people bother me. My partner is trans masc. We discussed Newsom as a challenger to Trump without all the information (yesterday). I just hate the current administration so much. I'd take a lesser demon over Satan himself. I just don't see hope for the current system.

... Jesus. I need to be better informed on Newsom.

I can't help but feeling like if the system refuses to change, we refuse to implement ranked choice, or widely acknowledge progressive candidates than choosing to ignore politics and let everyone else decide your fate isn't wise.

Mamdani. Bernie, AOC. Too bad both sides of the isle like to gang up on them.

What makes me unable to stomach Newsom is how he talks about and treats the homeless of california. I didn't even know he was transphobic too. But if the american people will only vote for someone who puts on the best show, i'd rather him then MAGA.

Mamdani who would be 37 next election would be a much better choice. Or ranked choice voting with more than two parties. But just like i voted for kamala to try and save us from trump, i'd vote for Newsom. Reluctantly.

My partner and i were just talking about this. Neither of us "support" Newsome. I'm glad someone is talking to trump and the MAGA party the way they talk to others. I also would vote for him if the only two candidates were him and JD Vance or (god forbid) trump 3rd term and Newsome I'd vote Newsome,

Anger’s a second emotion, what shows up after something softer gets hit first. Usually fear, shame, or helplessness. Whenever fragile egos get angry it always reminds me how maladjusted and emotionally stunted or immature they are.

Alas probably not. I'd imagine just vaguely candy adjacent.

I like your idea. Better than this www.snusdirect.com/caffeine-pou... . No strong recommendations i just knew they existed and seem similar.

I believe what they were telling you is that a solution that respects law and procedure would likely be ignored, or repressed by a government intent on perpetuating the status quo, regardless of what a majority wanted, what is factually true, or what causes the most societal good. Idk tho.

Maybe if you drop an artist, mention your favorite song by them. Especially if it's not one of their top hits (by listens). I tend to not like a whole artists discography.

Thank you for reposting. We have about $300 saved out of our approximate 1000 goal. Between our untreated disabilities/conditions, the hours I'm demanded, and our lack of familial or social safety nets I'm barely staying sane.
