Unsurpassed Travesty

being literally wealthier than kings and monarchical dynasties with no corresponding social obligations is extremely corrosive to both the individual and the body politic, and taking 95% of everything elon musk has would be better for him, personally.

the monarchy should be abolished, etc., etc., but the king of england being like “nope, fuck that guy, you can take him” about his own brother is kind of wild to watch

doug burgum ordering interior staff to bake him cookies and make sure they’re warm when they bring them to him almost seems quaint compared to ten months later. it will also get worse.

legacy political media is going to look back very fondly on woke 1 when we get to woke 2

the degree to which the incel looksmaxxing crowd doesnt know what looks are even attractive to women is kind of impressive considering the lengths they go to but then you remember none of them have ever talked or listened to women about anything and it suddenly starts making sense

pov: you’re about to get freshly baked biscuits

The "Accountability" issue is getting muddled and we should be clear about what it is and isn't. I don't need Democrats to post Trumpian memes and say swears on TV, I want them to impose legal consequences on our criminal president and his accomplices. Until they can, they should cheerlead for it

Two bunnies ride on the shell of an enormous snail, as it makes its way through a patch of mushrooms in the fall. The mushrooms and plants around them are also giant, so it's possible that the bunnies are just tiny and everything else is normal size

Daily bunny no.3235 will get there eventually

it’s insane that a decade ago we all agreed that giving mass shooters the attention they desired was a bad thing but now because rightwingers will quite literally lie about the shooter every single time we all have to be acutely aware of the shooters intentions and ideology

bullying always works

it’s so cool everything is either a scam or designed to take away human rights or both now

one thing about jesse jackson i always keep in mind is the sister souljah moment was using her as a proxy to take a shot at him, as the dems giving a big sign they wouldn't be bound to listening to minorities or 'special interest groups'

and that coalition has been in charge of the party since

I just got a Batman tomagotchi from the 90s. So far all he does is pace around nervously, do pushups, and think about Batman.

in it voted 5

OBAMA CHOOSING A FURSONA: Uhhhh…let me be deer

A brutal attack you say? Beaten up in the tweets you say? Oh gosh how awful

The thing about Trump talking about aliens is, have you ever had the same conversation with an older family member? You've heard that story a million times but they're telling it to you again?

Aliens is one of these stories, the pedophile grandpa can't stop having the exact same conversation.

It's hard to even post about hobbies when every hobby feels like it's in a constant state of investor-induced freefall.

hahaha seriously though we should charge these people as child sex traffickers

I see a lot of people frustrated with lack of accommodation for low-medium needs autism, ADHD, anxiety, and depression and I want to caution us all to keep in mind that high/severe needs people with mental illness/neurodivergence are neither your rivals, nor are they receiving higher quality care

and it's *so little* money

for us, the difference between "good headspace, able to get life done and create things" and "total burnout" is like $800/mo

most artists aren't asking to be rich. seriously, just make life a little fucking easier and we'll handle the rest and keep you entertained.

it is quite literally a global security issue, as the very rich are in some cases more powerful than entire governments

the main reason to go after the rich is that if you don’t the entire structure of your society is predicated on the whims of people who are entirely disconnected from ordinary life

billionaires are simply too dangerous to exist, and any budgetary stuff that comes out of it is just a bonus
