Coming Up Violets

Someone please bomb this country.

Republicans will of course continue to pretend the entire city is on fire and everyone will shoot you.

Mom’s dad was the principal Trombonist at the Metropolitan opera in New York City.

Dad’s dad worked in a wood treatment plant in Georgia. After he retired from there and became a truck driver, they banned every single chemical he came home soaked in for years.

So, so fun.

BENGHAZI!!!

Do I still hope someone shares the video where the disgusting little cretin says “Don’t vote or vote Democrat. This administration needs to be shut down” allllll over FilthSocial, etc? Yes. Yes I do.

WHY would you make that disgusting photo of that repulsive rapist’s MOUTH HOLE your cover phot and shove it into all of our faces?
I’m really gonna have to start ting accounts that do this. Gross and unnecessary.

Nice.

It’s not that often I can pinpoint the exact first time I’ve ever heard a word. But this is one of those times! A momentous occasion. I have never once encountered the word “Wasian,” I’m as certain as I can be, in my life.

Sorry to come off as a ‘splainer, but you might be surprised how often I say that to someone and the person had no idea. Then they learn some cool history! The Stuff You Should Know episode about them is great.

It’s not like that, I’m just saying it’s not a bad thing so don’t be afraid to be seen as one! Heck I’m about to start calling myself one if this crap keeps up. Yeah!! Break the damn machines!!!

It’s SO useless. I asked it to make meal plans that abide by the IBD-AID diet? It gave me meals containing things that people with IBD should NEVER eat. I asked it to make me a fairly simple reference image? It failed in every possible direction no matter what I told it. Got that out of my system!!

Fun fact: the Luddites were only painted as “afraid of technology.” Really they were the original labor activists! So be a Luddite!

I confess I tried it a few times… I quickly discovered that it was totally, utterly worthless. Unhelpful. Not useful at all. That’s part of the reason I’m so hardline anti-AI.

Those of you who have never used it once, I ASSURE you, you are not missing *anything*.

I used one a few times to see if there was anything to the hype and if I was sure I was against it. There wasn’t. I am. It’s crap. Totally useless crap. You’re not missing anything.

Fun fact: the Luddites weren’t afraid of technology. They were among the first labor protestors!

I normally hate auto-captions for the reason that they’re phenomenally inaccurate. This time? ::Chef’s kiss::

Jesus H. Christ. I wish I could personally Underground Railroad them out of there but I live in Alabama, which is not even en route to anywhere much more desirable than Kansas.

My assumption is that they simply saw a traditionally female sounding name with an M marker and said, “aha, clearly transgender! I am very smart.” even though that doesn’t even make sense if you actually think about it first half a second.

But still, openly pre-genocidal behavior.

JFC. Openly pre-genocidal behavior here.

Oh, my god, this is so extremely fucked.

Along with hundreds of schoolgirls.

With no context, how are you starting the week?

Meta at work, but half those accounts might be fake (also meta at work, hard at work on dead internet theory)

This. The New York Times has been a fascist rag for a while now. The best course of action is to boycott, shun, ostracize and make them pariahs.

The Boy Scouts was a Mormon organisation??
I thought it was a Christian organisation.

I thought people were just using that because of the character limit. Like, because it is three whole character shorter. Are you saying people are actually using it for some sort of intentional purpose? If so… ick.

Two small pieces of wood have been cut into roughly the shape of the state of Alabama, then painted with a diagonal rainbow (the gay pride flag) plus brown, black, light blue, white and light pink (for people of color and transgender folks). I have then painted the words “Y’all Means ALL,” and, “No Fascist USA” in white, which I will then outline with a darker color. Next, I glue a small magnet to the back of each one and paint my signature on the back. Then they’re varnished, dried, and ready to go!

Working on a new set of these again, because every time I paint more, people come in and buy them! 😅

Yes, even here in Alabama!

That’s true too. But I do believe they really REALLY want us all to shut up about Epstein and how they’re all kidfuckers. We’re not gonna, though.

Still, saying the regime is throwing more shit at us hoping we can’t focus on any one thing doesn’t inherently deny the horror & evil of each thing.
