Which. I understand the not wanting to, hence the “this is a metaphor”, and i completely sympathize. I am just suffering as a result of the parked car’s poor life choices becoming an Everyone’s Problem

This is true also they *can* get thru because that car has not moved yet, and so after 10 minutes of angry nonstop horn, they *do* go around it every time.

It’s also not a metaphor. I have heard so much annoying honking in the last 80 minutes… yall. I’m having a pain flare. Could you just NOT?

The garbage trucks are in a bad mood this morning. This is a metaphor.

When you confront me, you don't get to pick and choose if *I* am "one of the good ones". *I* dictate that you confront me with the full force of bigotry you would bring to bear against my vulnerable peers, and *I* am going to respond, with the full force of my privileges, as if it is personal.

Today’s reminder that evolutionary “fitness” is much less like:
“I want the best partner to mate gametes with”

and much more like:
“am I still willing to procreate with you, the last man on earth, or would I rather JUST DIE”

Omg Australia why are you like this**??

**so creepy. yet so cute. yet so creepy.

I think we haven’t even yet gotten to the stuff Wyden is Not Allowed To Say.

The woman in that photo is almost 50 now. I wonder what she thinks about that time. Does she remember it as a fun and carefree expression of sexual inhibitions? Or does she see the machine that was telling her to feel that way for the gratification and profit of predatory men.

And—AND—if you were a teen then: YOU LOOKED UP TO THOSE GIRLS! The Girls Gone Wild girls were cool! They were attractive! They were who you were told you were supposed to look and act like!

BEING PRAYED ON AND EXPLOITED BY PERVY MEN MADE YOU COOL.

Add for Girls Gone Wild On Campus 2. The center girl is lifting her black tank top to show her boobs and stomach piercing. A censor bar saying “real girls!” is pasted over the nipples. She is blind with vacant eyes and smile. She looks <20 years old. Three smaller pictures of similarly shirt lifted girls appear down the ride side of the ad. Ad copy below reads “Uncensored! Raw! Real! Uncut!”

“According to TNS Media Intelligence, Girls Gone Wild spent more than $21 million in advertising in 2003, becoming the largest advertiser for programs on the E! channel.” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girls_G...

Imagine looking at this every day and going “that’s normal” 🙃 WHAT WAS WRONG WITH US?

Can I just say that it’s very weird to me that in ALL the discussion of the Epstein files and “what it was like back in the day” I have yet to see EVEN ONE mention of Girls Gone Wild? Like, we’ve just completely memory holed that every commercial break had an ad for Barely-Legal-Soft-Core-Porn.

I am not the target market for this piece, but think that whoever that target market person is, they are very lucky because *this looks amazing* 😻

Neurodivergent Mind: When Your Common Sense Is Not Common You thought everyone understood the way you did. Realizing they don't creates a sense of aloneness few understand.

"When your mind can intuitively grasp complex systems, rapidly synthesize information from multiple sources, and identify patterns others miss, it becomes genuinely difficult to understand why others cannot do the same."

🥴

Digital necromancy should be treated as akin to defiling a corpse and defaming the character of a dead person, by the law and by society.

This is hell cool. I want to be their friend

I HAVE SOMETHING TO COMMUNICATE

Well it’s a good think I already hate her guts.

For the love of god and all that is holy can we stop teaching evolution theory like it’s sexual eugenics?? Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick. 🤬

pizzagate and qanon were not onto something, they were orchestrated by pedophiles to make accusing people of pedophilia make you look insane so that they could continue doing pedophile shit. fucking christ

Using a gif or video, give everyone a sneak peak at your flirting technique!

I got a new phone last year, but the previous one I had for 10 years. So I’m not looking to replace this one for A Long Time

Oh I love this one!

I just—we used to do things differently. I know this. I was there when it was different. But everyone acts like this is just how it’s always been, that everyone has always walked around with a shield up saying “no new friends”.

Travel is hard and I am lonely. I am also incredibly full of thoughts and frustrations about groups and communities—but that’s just a day ending in “y”

A failure of vision. A failure of comprehension. The only goal: preserve the failed status quo.

Trump, in theory, offered change. Dems, in practice, don't even say they do.

Republicans are a fascist party. But Dems are the CONSERVATIVE party, always fighting for institutions, even when they fail.

It will be cringy, and that's ok. "In my empath era, sympathimaxing, doing the 'motional support with my boys"

Whatever you call it, kids, I'm here for it.

Anne Frank *had been* a legal resident. I thought that by the time the Franks were found, that legality status had changed, no? Which. Sounds rather familiar.

Better futures are possible, sooner than you think. Better futures are possible, now.

Leave no one behind. Keep pushing, keep trying, keep breathing.

It’s not over.
