i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

We should *want* developers to take their time for the sake of both getting a *good* game and for the devs to not be rushed and overworked.

it’s not that i’m trying to act younger than my age, it’s that i’m genuinely immature

How are y'all dealing with the cognitive dissonance of much of your daily life continuing as normal right now even as really really really bad shit is happening in government (that will certainly have ripple effects that will reach us all)? Because I'm honestly feeling a little insane right now.

Guys horrible thought but what if the 2010s were the good times. Like what if that's as good as it got...

See now I’m starting to think that these people want a machine to summarize things for them because when a human does it, the human uses words like “no” and “that would hurt people” and “that’s illegal.”

Through comments, I learned about other big myths Americans believe about foreign aid:
1/ it's risen past 1% in recent years, esp. due to Ukraine - false, max is about 0.5% in 2022 $80B
2/ it's used mostly *not* for humanitarian aid - nope
3/ It's mainly about military objectives - nope

.
So when exactly do the ‘checks’ and ‘balances’ part kick in?

Or is that just a fun little slogan like

‘thoughts and prayers’?

Love this journey.

i want gayer games with gayer graphics made by the gayest people and i'm not joking

I think I’m going to stand outside and scream for about 5 minutes later today.

Liberal wypipo, the women in particular, continue to be baffled and deeply perturbed at Black folks choosing to live and focus on our own lives despite the chaos *their* people overwhelmingly voted for and I just want to remind yall that Black people do not solely exist to be activism foot soldiers.

a white sheet of paper hanging from a black clip against a blue wall. the paper is a worksheet with the words, "my dog is a..." with the instructions to circle one of the following words, "hero," "companion," or "worker." instead, the word "circle" has been circled in pencil, and the rest of the sheet reads, "because he is round" in crude handwriting. next to the explanation as to why the dog is a circle, is a drawing of a very rotund dog with a tiny tail and little feet. this is an A+ assignment if we've ever seen one.

This kid slightly misunderstood their homework assignment and we could not possibly love it more. 12/10

OK, I get being a responsible adult… but, every day? Every single day? That seems a bit excessive.
