Say what you will about Graber's tenure, it is undeniably taxing when you're constantly odds with the userbase about which ones of them are people

Called DWhite an Apex Glue Guy, the other day, bc it was the closest I could get to the weird hybrid of 'basically an all-star on both ends' and 'just does all the little things' that he represents.

Nah. All that happens when we stand together is a few unbelievably wealthy people get wealthier, and lots of kids get murdered. Neither of these are priorities of mine, and they shouldnt be yours - but alas.

5. Fascism is, ideologically, among other things, a yearning for a past that never was - it is lying about the world we shared, usually by insisting only a chosen people were in it at all. It's not a coincidence that pop culture devolving into nostalgia mining coincided with fascism's rise, here.

4. Whoever wrote this is in their 30's or *40's* - so either fully grown, or indeed beginning to decline, and they are writing this while the bombs are dropping, again, which they saw the first time, and all they want is to be a child without responsibility, ignorant of the world. Deeply pathetic.

3. The ecological damage that burning oil fields, anywhere, represents for the planet is hard to articulate - but every day of this is a step closer to the end of Winter, entirely, for everyone.

A quote tweet. Quoted tweet is from Daily Nostalgia, and it says "POV: it' the last day at school before winter break in the early 2000s" and there's a picture of one of those rich kid's super jungle gyms, covered in snow.

Quote tweet says "I literally dont give one single shit about anything other than ensuring our country returns to this.

The majority of the world can burn for all I care, as long as I get my homeland back."

A few things:
1. Bombing the Middle East bc people with oil didnt want to give it to us was what we were doing in the early 2000's, as well. Welcome home.
2. Endless wars of adventure and slaughter in pursuit of oil correlate really strongly to why this was the hottest Winter in US history, again.

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill herβ€”and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

anytime i run into that "dem candidates don't owe you anything, not even trying to motivate you to vote for them" kinda stuff i try to picture how obama's campaign in '08 would've gone with a platform and message of "i don't owe you shit"

Drains across the Iranian capital Tehran are continuing to explode after earlier Israeli and US strikes on oil depots and infrastructure.

Medical experts are warning the toxic smoke and runoff has increased the risk of deadly illnesses, including cancer.

The sheer *harm* Justin Fox is responsible for is difficult to grapple with - I'd almost prefer a cackling villain, even knowing the chances of him suffering any consequence for his actions is essentially null, either way.

But him being this boneless fucking dipshit? Awful. Just awful.

Collecting my child's ravaged corpse from a crater

It was a mistake on their computer actually. The missile. AI they said. Yeah the computer messed up somehow. So all in all just one of those things. Time to move on.

This is the one story of the world right now. Yes the U.S. election is important (and I still hope Trump loses) and yes climate change is an existential threat. But if we cannot pressure our government to do something as easy as just fucking stop arming and funding a genocide then what hope is there that they will ever do anything much more difficult down the line? (Killing people is easy as I said and saving them is hard). What hope is there that when the climate does finally take an even worse turn that this sort of wanton indifference to human life isn't how we'll start treating everyone? First at the border and then everywhere inside the country. Imperial wars always come home after all. If we can do all of this killing (with zero benefit to our country or our people by the way) then something like Palestine awaits us all in the near future.

Personally, I'd rather not have a pedophile prosecuting this illegal war. But I'm not here to tell you how to handle your business.

'Does not remove options off the table'

Are there any broadly ethical derogatory terms left for people who are incurious to the point of being unable to communicate?

Like, I need to call the press secretary - every press secretary - something, but most of the stuff I can bring to mind is fucked.

Some of the people I see expressing shock and dismay at carpet bombing and oil fires burning in the Middle East are older than me - like, how easy have things been for you, til *just recently*, that you missed TWO wars?

Oil prices jump after Qatar warns disruption could push crude to $150 Oil prices surged on Friday after warnings from Qatar that the war will force Gulf to stop energy exports "within days".

I always said that the primary reason for countries to invest in renewables isn't necessarily because of climate change, of course that's massively important, but they should've think about it in terms of national security and economic stability.

Please remember that we are at war right now not because we have to be, but because our government chose to be.

And every bomb could have fed thousands of children.

I dont see any problem with striking airbases when you are being bombed. That's arguably the most reasonable military action that could be taken.
