Threads is a WILD RIDE

It's like all the cracked conspiracy theories of early 90s UseNet passed through a White Folks Using AAVE filter and laid over the most intense algorithmic exposure model yet created.

Still better than X.

Barack Obama only pops up to remind people that yes, it's the WHOLE party that's useless.

I've been called an "n-word lover" enough times in my life to understand that white women who don't follow the script are not just disposable, but are a direct threat.
But that's never a reason to fall in line.

David Bowie was one of the musicians who slept with 13 year old groupies.
By any rational standard he was a creep,no matter how much you like his music.

Roman Polanski is a brilliant filmmaker whose work I really appreciate. And a complete creep.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

What a useless political party.

Late 90s/early 2ks in my area there seemed to be just a huge number of young people in Jettas driving like they stole it. I don't think it was universal.

I have noticed that the "jackass driver who has no idea what they're doing" that has moved from various car archetypes in my life (Jettas, BMWs, Escalades, huge GMC trucks) has seemed to shift to Teslas lately.
(The fuckoff huge trucks are still a big issue though)

So the chick who is supportive of her rapist husband and her child-rapist brother is using a "supporting Trans kids is pedophilia and predatory" attack on a guy who notably doesn't support Trans kids.

We are the dumbest country and it's not even close.

Wanting better things / having policy goals = circular firing squad.
Got it.

Why develop anything meaningful - like policies or stances - when you believe your potential constituents are just gormless dorks with no values seeking a catchier slogan?

Dude, at least a statement of disagreement, as useless as that is, would be more than the complete silence on offer.

I voted "the right way" and stayed engaged with political minutia for a few decades, arguing very similarly to you regarding engagement with the process. Eventually a person who isn't delusional stops and evaluates the intractability of the situation.
Go be smug elsewhere.

Actually, I'll expand. I've been a voter since December 1995. This is not a new issue. And volunteering for a party I'm not a member of while living in a deep blue dot in a wildly gerrymandered state is not going to fix the broken-ness of the US political system.

I'm so so so tired of this scolding liberal shtick.

Not once in my life has there been a US candidate that aligned with even half of my opinions, yet I've dutifully avoided letting perfect be the enemy of good for over 30 years of voting.

If we never demand better we will never get it.

It's nearly impossible to compare the two so far.

Wade Barrett saying "Female" over and over is my only takeaway from this match so far. #survivorseries

I like how they specifically said the 75 million is *not* an admission of guilt so I guess it’s just a bribe for no reason and they decided to put that in writing

I really enjoy watching people be upset when a storyline in wrestling doesn't go the way they expected/wanted it to. It's why I check out social media during shows.

Well it started at 7.
And at least involves fighting and drama and bloodshed
