I was born and raised in central MA and have lived in the Pacific NW for 35 years now.
Compared to Portland drivers, we Massholes are the best in the world. I became fluent in WW1 Flying Ace profanity by the time I was in my mid-20's, just driving to and from work every day.

What Mr. Scalzi said.
I bailed on Twitter the second my journalism career ended in early 2022.
Only reason I was still on it was for work.
Don't miss it at all.
Were it not for the fact that its Marketplace is the main option for secondhand stuff over Craigslist, I'd tell Facebook to go fuck itself.

When your first line of defense of the indefensible is to crowbar whatever justifications that further minimizes victims and insulates the scum of humanity...?
You're not a journalist or an 'informed orator.'

You're a cunt.

You've reached the dregs of inhumanity worthy of that term. Full stop.

To be fair, I would've respected my father a hell of a lot more had he called me for this, rather than to rave about whatever Q-Anon/MAGA bullshit the internet delivered to him that week.

Good for you. Congrats on your condescension.
The actual journalists have all been elbowed aside over the last 20 years for 'influencers' who have no idea what ethics are.
Journalism is a supply/demand business.
Americans demand propaganda and bullshit.
Weiss & Co. are too happy to supply it.

I spent 15 years as a frontline journalist.
Journalism without standards is simply unconfirmed, subjective propaganda.
That's what people like Weiss want.
That's why journalism is dead.
That's why no one trusts the media anymore.

Another year, another circular firing squad comes along and gives totalitarians, despots and fascists more incentive to punish citizens more.

No. Not giving them a break. Eight Dems broke ranks in favor of a cheap non-fix.
They undercut all the momentum built up over the last week and reinforced all the MAGA bullshit that caused the shutdown in the first place.
Out of the f'n pool. All of you. Thanks for trying to drown us you hacks.

Or conversely, you could just convince the shareholders of Tesla to give you the most insane contract in world history.*

*Elon doesn't get the trillion unless he brings in $8 trillion in profit first.

With how much schadenfreude is powering the world against his Wankpanzers, don't bet on that.

Just wait. Some MAGA racist POS will say they've seen 'reports' of women paying for abortions with SNAP benefits.
Anything to punish minorities and the working poor into capitulation, while billionaires get CCP-style socialism.

My therapist: What would it take to get you to go back out into the world and be open to relationships?
Me: Amnesia.
Therapist: Huh?
Me: Once you learn that 'love' comes down to being 'transactionally attractive' enough to unlock emotional/physical intimacy, it's nowhere near as appealing.

Trump orders Pentagon to resume testing nuclear weapons 'immediately' The U.S. voluntarily halted nuclear explosive testing in 1992, though it has the ability to restart tests at a site in Nevada.

Dear Santa,
I promise I tried my best to be a good boy this year and what I REALLY want for Christmas is my own fallout shelter...

Whoever's come up with this horseshit has clearly never interacted with actual Trekkies.
My surrogate mom and sister LOVE Star Trek.
My son got his fandom for Trek by being around both his grandparents.
Trek is built on inclusivity and diversity.

Shove that 'red pill' up your ass.

Anybody else remember when Il Douche said on the record that we should 'nuke hurricanes'?
Given his undeclared, declared war on Central America and the Caribbean, I'm sure that's been a topic of conversation lately.

Reason 3,712 why I'm glad I got out of #journalism
Rather than informing people of actual facts, news media foments these bullshit conspiracy theories for ratings/revenue.

Meanwhile, still waiting on my check from Soros Political, LLC.
