away, carry on

I’m excited to announce that I’m running against Sen. Tammy Duckworth in the 2028 Democratic primary (tune in 2 years from now to see if I’m joking about this)

We live in this great world where people will compromise with, enable, and even openly collaborate with fascists, but will come together like the goddamn avengers to stop progressives and real people who want to stop doing the same failed things over and over

We genuinely need to burn the entirety of establishment corporate journalism to the fucking ground

apologies to the like six people these networks employ that aren't fucking corporatist ghouls

I am not very good at holding myself accountable on stuff like this, as it turns out

Operation Le Epic Bacon (bonus points because of the Islamophobic implications of the bacon part)

"preemptive strikes" WAR OF AGGRESSION

prison for everyone involved in this illegal war of aggression

Trump pooped himself on live camera 17 days ago. It’s weird you get to go declare war after that imo

Imo what is happening on x is that the algorithm loves racist and anti semitic content, and the people who are on there marinate in it all day, and the epstein files has offered an excuse for even left identified people to indulge in the trangressive pleasure of public bigotry as a little treat

The global wellness industry, at $6.2 trillion a year, is 4 times larger than the global pharmaceutical industry.

We can have all the Discourse we want about whether Trump has the manpower to cancel/suppress the midterms, but the fact we’re even talking about that means we’re in the Sunken Place

If their efforts to fuck shit up are even, say, 20% successful, we’ll be in a really dark place

People simply saying it wouldn't work or he wouldn't do it...even if he tries, even if a little bit happens you do realize the chaos this would cause.

All these people have to offer is “we’re going to keep the Dems as a center-right party even if it kills the republic, and fuck you for thinking you ever had a meaningful choice in the matter.” Centrism is cancer

Getting furious at porridge. Steam coming out of my ears at the mere thought of plain Greek yogurt. Putting “there is nothing in the world I hate more than Cheerios” on my dating profile

I swear to God, nobody ever reads the charts

Leftists DO vote for Normie Dems! In these polls, 90% of socialists, 95% of progs say they'd vote for Kamala Harris.

A higher rate of libs & centrists ("Normie Dems") DON'T vote for Dems. They vote Rep instead, 2x worse!

👉 Centrists are the problem 👈

Metacritic has sent a reminder email to all games site editors/publishers which is pretty strong, and great:

Just as there’s a Rotating Villain on the Dem side (shithead centrist standing in the way of good legislation getting past), the GOP has a Rotating Hero (“moderate” R who is thiiiis close to defying Trump on something meaningful)

You can't vibes your way out of this and end with "yeah idk but people saying I'm wrong are tedious doomsayers." You're paid a six-figure salary by the "I hate trans people" & "Maybe racism is good" outlet while journalists doing OG reporting have to beg for money from readers! Shut the fuck up!

This is a frame that people really like about a certain kind of conservative woman (always white)
- she is nice
- she is a problem solver
- she has a conscience (but always follows The Rules)
- she softens and sells cruelty as safety
- she talks "tough" using household language

if you’re a leftist, you need to understand how widespread it is for white supremacists & fascist conspiracy theorists to use populist language to advance their violent, bigoted agendas. they are not on your side. they do not get grace or uplifted due to being a broken clock.

They hear what North Korean defectors say about the media over there and think, “hey, let’s do a fascist version of that here!” I’m sure it’ll work out

CNN follows NPR and Politico in finding that DOJ scrubbed the Epstein files of evidence related to a woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was 13 years old.

Marxists & communists are also anti-fascist btw, that’s one reason I am nonsectarian in what varieties of leftists I work with.

Anarchist, Communist, DemSoc, Progressive, Maoist, Socialist, Communalist, Georgist, Posadist, whatever.

Do you want total liberation & oppose fascism? Great, let’s roll.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

re: Kansas today, but everything generally—I don’t repeat what’s become a talking point about the number of trans people being so small to be so targeted. The number of people harmed is not a fight I want to have when that number could be one and the harm would still be wrong.
