I'm so tired of being held up as the great evil in a world awash in true evil by a cult of pedophiles for what, exactly? Loving another man and building a life with him?

Pope Leo XIV affirms family is based on union between a man and a woman, unborn has inherent dignity Pope Leo XIV has affirmed core Catholic teaching on marriage and the unborn in his first meeting with the ambassadors accredited to the Holy See.

Okay, I waited a bit, resisted the early bandwagon, withheld judgement, but now I can say that Pope Leo can go fuck himself, and do not come at me with any feel-good takes. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, and no, Francis was not that much better.

Capitalism will destroy us all because too many people were indoctrinated to believe Socialism was the real evil.

The thing about watching a JD Vance speech is that everyone knows heโ€™s a little pig man. Everyone knows he exists to squeal for Trumpโ€˜s amusement. No one respects him and he clearly doesnโ€™t respect himself.

People (MAGAs) claim Trump is "pro-gay," despite not ever giving support to any form of gay rights, but he also holds Hungarian dictator Viktor Orbรกn in high regard and says he wants policies like his in the US. This could very well be our future, and you're damn right I'll be showing up to march.

I am not spending the next (waves vaguely) however-many-years freaking-the-fuck-out every time that asshole signs an executive order. Seriously. Get a grip. He wants you to react. Your reaction doesn't change that it's an empty act designed to upset you. Don't give them what they want.

So the reason I used Twitter so much was I was able to get real time news and hook into lots of different conversations.

Feel like this isnโ€™t quite happening for me on here. Is there a way to make it happen? How are people using the various tabs?

THIS. I limit my Bluesky time because it's definitely doomscrolling and bad for my mental health to read post after post about the latest news in dystopia. Culture, especially pop culture, is not the enemy right now. I'd argue it's much needed pressure relief for many who are trying to stay engaged.

Call me crazy but a case of arson on a Swasticar could just as easily be an insurance scam by the owner knowing Tesla has become a toxic brand. The false flag opportunity is just an added bonus for a MAGA diehard with a hefty car payment due every month.

It is genuinely your moral duty, if youโ€™re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your labโ€™s still open.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

There is no point in Senate Democrats voting to fund the government only to let Trump and Musk do whatever they see fit with those funds.

Dems should only vote for a continuing resolution if it stops DOGE pillaging and fully funds services.
