"A few small beers" and Chill

It really is amazing that when a popular young Democratic politician who wants to solve real problems for people beats an old-guard institutionalist Democrat in a primary, the institutionalist Democrat just stays in the race and basically runs as a Republican.

I try so hard to let my nails actually get long!

Nooooo

Boooo they're uncultured

Gotta hit em with one of these

Do some of you remember how I said a few months ago that the fascists aren't having fun? They still aren't, lol.

Their parties [when they have them] SUCK.

They make bad art.

They aren't funny.

They CRAVE Leftist popular culture & resent the fact that they do.

They aren't actually having fun

this has to be coupled with the things that *don’t* count as a scandal: an array of harassment allegations, covering up Covid deaths, staying in a race after losing the primary, etc.

I love caring for my queer elders!!

“Do you really expect Mamdani to get everything he’s promising done?”

No. I’m sure a lot of what I want won’t happen. But I’m ready for someone who’s willing to actually fucking try rather than tell everyone why trying is pointless and must be saved for an undefined later moment

Walked by multiple USPS workers ony walk today. Shout out to the real boys in blue.

All I can think is that some people believe that being right about a doomsday scenario earlier than everyone else will make them the winner of doomsday or something.

Also I need to Yell at some healthcare people for making my patient's Spanish-speaking daughter feel like a burden for needing an interpreter 😤

I still speak like un bebé but I was able to complain with someone about a minor inconvenience, and isn't that what language is really all about?

I can feeeeeel the difference in my brain between carefully thinking through and crafting texts in Spanish, and having to speak on the fly. It's kind of amazing.

What kind of nerd is it when you put on the latest episode of Hearts of Space and after the first few notes you yell "The duduk! The duduk in its proper context!"

It's all part of slab culture and I'm unclear how much of slab is showing the cars vs driving them

Texas, baby! (I actually don't know lol)
