Left leaning. Trying to do good even when I'm sounding like a jackass. I only block dumb or racist people. I'm a white guy that married a black woman in a multicultural family. I don't have my own family anymore.

The mental gymnastics to defend Palestine, but condemn Ukraine is bonkers.

My Dad (ultra conservative) hated Trump and thought he was a corrupt grifter businessman that just wanted power before 2016.

The 180 he did when Trump was the nominee in 2016 was stunning.

My Dad is a soulless ghoul who just wants to own the libs. That's all he is, he had no morals.

Some of it is due to B. During covid big businesses got to stay open and small and medium businesses closed.

I worked for a Telecom during covid and we were informed that if we were stopped coming into the office to tell the authorities that we were essential and to speak to our lawyers.

Likely because

A) a lot of taxes and regulations don't consider small and medium sized businesses fairly. Republicans push messaging about this.

B) The whole think they'll be wealthy at some point issue.

This is how the news should report Trump’s rants. If news networks won’t do their job, I guess I’ll have to do it for them. πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

They are thinking men will just say they are trans to get access and prey on women.

When I was in college the bars would have very long lines for the women's bathrooms and no line for the men...

The women would just use the men's bathroom... Surprisingly everyone was an adult about it.

Just an FYI there are stiff tax implications for being an ex-pat. They might think their taxes go away, but they don't lol

This feels cheap to say on Bluesky where most people will agree with you.

What's the purpose here? Were you wanting the left to clap you on the back? Good job, sir, very insightful, we had no idea.

Rand Paul just wants more cuts so everything is paid for.

Same reason hard line conservatives were against it in the house.

the deportations are not final. the regime and security forces fuck up constantly. escape and survival are not just possible but probable. this nightmare engine can be fought and is being fought.

That's the great thing, below the new standing "seats" there is a trap door and they just slide you down. No need to even stop the plane, hell if enough overweight passengers kick the bucket the airline will save on fuel!

Body disposal will cost your family $2,000, but think of the convenience!

There are a lot of facts we don't like to talk about. For me though it's that sickle cell might be less genetic disease and more evolutionary adaptation to fight malaria.

That one pisses people off for some reason.

As for race, my wife is a black scientist who is smarter than me.

Dear Governor Stein:
This is in response to your April 25, 2025, appeal of the denial of your request for an extension to the cost share waiver under major disaster FEMA-4827-DR that was declared on September 28, 2024, due to Tropical Storm Helene. You specifically requested an extension of the 100 percent federal cost share for debris removal and emergency protective measures, including direct federal assistance for an additional 180 days.
After a careful and thorough review of all the information available, including that contained in your initial request for a cost share adjustment and appeal, we have concluded that an extension of the 100 percent federal cost share for debris removal and emergency protective measures, including direct federal assistance for an additional 180 days under major disaster declaration FEMA-4827-DR is not warranted.

It makes dumb people feel less dumb and it makes people who lack creativity feel creative.

That's why it's popular. You'll see conservatives now just making arguments using grok.

Supposedly that's a woman, but I don't see many women on the left going to the route of calling people "pussy ass bitches"...

Then unironically blocking everyone....

He's getting at the idea that the more boxes you tick the better you are as a person and more valuable your opinion.

It pops up in corporate DEI and with how some circles think.
