little ficket

supposedly Florida public records show that she registered Republican last June, which is what he's reacting to.

The decadence of fools generationally dissociated from human history and the material basis of their own society.

this is so fucking accurate. unreal

I think really the story of the past ten years was people taking for granted 21st century liberalism was locked in and therefore you could just kinda be fashy for a laugh only to realize a moment too late Skinhead Steve wasn’t joking after all.

by age 30 you should:

- have a bluesky
- post 100 times a day minimum
- be 36 actually

I think that's why it's one that right wingers have clung on to so fiercely.

exactly. and that if this is such a problem, these sports need appropriate weight/physical classes, not gendered leagues.

It’s been a long time since I went to a shop on a rainy night and bought a strange mirror that showed me nought but the corrupted lies of my darkest heart and then upon my return found the shop had vanished

Whatever happened to that? Was that just a 90’s thing?

Transgender people aren't even close to the real problem. We just show everyone what the real problem is, which is that standards for women are so severe society thinks it's ok to destroy you if you don't meet them.

Being right wing is so hard bc you’re not allowed to acknowledge any actual phenomena that shape the world, so when you try to describe something you just end up sounding like if a person speaking in tongues worshipped the internet instead of god

I don’t know what changed, but this is what it feels like to use this website now

Waluigi is in JD Vance’s Discord.

Bowser voted Kamala and is a pronoun respecter, but Wario definitely voted Trump.

And this is definitely my own bias but I've simply never known anybody who preferred animals or pets to people who wasn't one of the worst human beings I know.

like I'm not about to sit here and listen to how terribly behaved some kids are and let you expect that I'm also going to believe you when you talk about how totally unproblematic your pets are. You just hate children and overcompensate by pretending that loving animals is somehow more pure.

I absolutely love pets and I think they are family, but don't compare your pets to people's children, especially not with the intent to claim your pet should either 1 have as many privileges as someone's child or 2 have fewer restrictions because "people let their brats do [x]".

If having a pet is no different than having a child, how come so many pet 'parents' only choose a pet after they realize they couldn't commit to a child?

clippy saying “oops! it looks like you’re confusing the personal with the systemic. would you like help?”

For further reference, each the 31 golf courses within San Antonio city limits uses anywhere from 80-200 million gallons of water per year. Again, that’s per course.

Any article that features large numbers but doesn’t contextualize those numbers is worthless to the vast majority of the population.

I've said it before but the idea that being healthy and Doing Well make you Hot is very pervasive and very dangerous for young people with serious body issues. The idea that starving yourself to get defined cheekbones will be praised as a glow-up, just for a single example.

The "work on bettering themselves and become a good person" is also why the manosphere, looksmaxxing, workout crossfit bros, clothes horse right-wingers also seem like a good source for advice.
Young men are doing what people have told them to do!

this is the only context I see it in, especially among autistic and ADHD people like myself. hard to blame them for that.

It's so hot outside shrek is in my pants arguing with my ass about whose swamp it is

succumbing to admitting that this boomer meme is funny

she did everything she could with the time she had trying to appeal to as many people as possible. the fact that it wasn't enough to convince people says more about what she was up against than what she supposedly could have done more.

your pov makes no sense, you can claim to see the issues that held her back and simultaneously blame her for not being able to overcome them, despite the fact that her success depended on the participation of dozens of millions of people.

I used to be like this for years, so I understand why they argue the way that they do, but at the end of the day it really does come down to washing your hands of it all because you know that it should be different/perfect, and forgiving yourself prematurely for not trying because it isn't.
