Keep Your Guns, Your God, and Your Cousin-Wives β€” The Northeast Is Out, You Slack-Jawed Christ-Humping Chucklefucks There is a kind of despair that settles into the soul when one realises a long-cherished union has rotted from within, its core eaten away by cowardice masquerading as compromise.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. β€œWhat can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Yeah so apparently the one day "economic blackout" was being promoted by a single random dude. Not an organization, just a random guy named Jay (I think) who set up a "donation" page..but who is not a 501 charity. Whole thing was a scam.

I restarted donating to the Democratic Socialists. That's a platform I can get on board with.

Hey, did you know that there are protests going on right now, against the literal Nazis who have control of our government, all over the world? I've seen literally nothing about this on news outside of TikTok.

Doing is always helpful. I think I'll look into making regular donations to abortion funds. And volunteering. Not sure where yet.
