I never know what I'm doing. Always has an opinion on: books, politics, capitalism and the sad state of this simulation. Often sarcastic. Sometimes curses.

I got to tell some people today how much I love @bsky.app and don’t worry, I cringed at myself way harder than any of them did, I am sure. #YOLO tho, we can’t live this life with regrets. πŸ˜‚

Listen, I am far from perfect, have plenty of my own issues but I tell you what… at least Kendrick Lamar didn’t make fun of me straight to my face on national TV.

End-stage capitalism is an unelected billionaire taking control of $6 trillion in public funds. If Musk gets his hands on the Treasury, he'll have more power over working-class lives than the government itself. My advice: Read Marx, Luxemburg, Gramsci, Fanon, Chomsky, and Parenti. Do what they say.

Oh, and if you identify as pro-Palestine and you AREN’T loudly denouncing the very blatant antisemitism unfolding before our very eyes with the same fervor,I fear you have lost the plot. Because we believe Palestinians have a right to live freely and safely, we must also feel the same for the Jews.

Elon’s blatant use of the widely known Nazi salute is not just offensive to Jews around the world, it’s an affront to every single American, essentially proving that we are so stupid that we will turn a blind eye, and even make excuses for, their deplorable behavior. It was test that many failed.

Are we ready yet to accept the reality that Trump’s support of Netanyahu and mass slaughter of Palestinians has absolutely nothing to do with Jewish safety and everything to do with racism, religious extremism and white colonialism? Jews are in far more danger BECAUSE of those two fascists.

People wonder if our society is beyond repair. I wonder if it is worth saving, if we even deserve it.

So, uh, Elon just gave an incredibly intentional looking Nazi salute at the inauguration and not a single mainstream media outlet is covering it. The few tabloid like articles I found are calling it an accident. We barely made it three hours…

I don’t think he’s a bot, but I do think his main personality trait is hating Bernie, from what I can tell from his profile. πŸ˜‚

I don’t think that’s a conspiracy theory, I think that’s common sense tbh.

You don’t need to apologize to me for men. You just need to keep telling them they’re stupid, like you’re doing now. Actions > Words πŸ˜‚

You know, whenever I come across someone like this, I think to myself -this has got to be satire bc the guy is proving my (and, in this case, your) point for me. SURELY he sees the irony of it all. But then I realize that they’re deadass serious and George W left more children behind than I realized

It’s also really rich that he’s still telling me, a woman, how we felt about Bernie. I know more women who voted for Bernie than Hillary in the primaries (myself included.)

No, I meant the stupidity that resides in our society, evidenced by your inability to use critical thinking to arrive at an informed conclusion based on actual facts.

Well, obviously. Hillary was doomed long before the 2016 election, albeit through no fault of her own and insanely unjustified, and the DNC was too stupid to even consider that as a possibility.

Everyone hoping that TikTok comes back, which as far as I can tell is the vast majority of its American users - even those who hate Trump.

And there it is. Scam and grift revealed. Watch who gets rich off this. Interested also to see how legacy media covers this, which has been putrid so far.

The Press in the Third Reich After rising to power, the Nazis eliminated freedom of the press in Germany. Learn more about how they established control over the press and manipulated it.

Even the briefest of google searches would provide a plethora of information on how Hitler first banned, then took control of, newspapers that had previously been under opposition control. Today, social media is more a source of information for young people than newspapers, so…

We’re all falling for the Nazi Propaganda Masterclass by Trump with his handling of #TikTok. Don’t get me wrong, I’m gutted about losing that app, too, but I can assure you that if he β€œsaves” it (don’t forget he created this ban during his first presidency) it will be a shadow of its former self.

I don’t read for the spice, but I have friends who do. Personally, I’d be fine without it but a lot of the romantasy books that I like have at least some. But I read for the stories/characters. Fully support those who love the spice, though! What kind of books do you like? I might have some recs
