“Voting is useless!”

I actually learned extremely recent history and saw how hard Black people had to fight to get that right. Fuck my fellow white people on their privileged high horses forever.

@amaditalks I don't understand how it is that we have to *keep* having this conversation. But, well. Here we are.

When all your media outlets are owned by corporations owned by right-wing bigots, what do you *expect* them to say about politics?

I need more shitposts on this feed, damnit.

@multiverseofbadness I just simply do not understand why people are giving him airtime to spout the nonsense I've seen to his base. As if his nazi rallies aren't enough?

From what I'm seeing here, I was *very* smart to take dance class instead of trying to keep up with that disaster of a debate.

I just left the most awkward and ridiculous message on Governor Cooper’s answering service re: the mask bill (that he can’t stop anyway because NC’s Repugs are about as fascist as the rest of them).

When the whole town decides it wants cheesesteaks after you picked up the cat food and thought it would be a quick stop on the way home.

For all the things that were awful this year, I'm at least glad I came to this place and found all y'all weird nerds.

There’s an article praising men in their 80s for still working in music.

They’ve been tearing Madonna down for being “too old” for decades.

…she’s in her 60s.

Someone tried it with Dolly Parton recently.

…she’s in her 70s

But men in their 80s? “Still going strong.” K.

“This is who is waging the war against presidents of universities. An antisemite who is part of an antisemitic party led by an antisemitic presidential candidate which are both blamed by the majority of Jews for contributing to mass shootings of Jews in America.”

I am, once again, urging everyone to read Elad's work.

“‘What this advertising boycott is going to do is, it is going to kill the company,' Musk said Wednesday. 'And the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company.’”

"Those advertisers" is a very weird way for him to pronounce “I.”

“We find this rhetorical tactic antithetical to Jewish values, which teach us to repair the world, question authority, and champion the oppressed over the oppressor. It is precisely because of the painful history of antisemitism and lessons of Jewish texts that we advocate for the dignity and sovereignty of the Palestinian people. We refuse the false choice between Jewish safety and Palestinian freedom…”

I continue to find my people.

“And while I’m happy that they eventually got a fair deal and immensely proud of what our union accomplished, I’m also furious that it took the studios 148 days to achieve a deal that they could have offered on day fucking one.”

Louder, John. Louder. 🔥🔥🔥

@bkm @PacificNic I'm calling the police. And I don't even *like* the police!

@bkm @PacificNic Ok. I'll let it slide this once. But if I see this suggestion again…

The fact that this dermatologist's office can't even tell that I was a patient there for several years before the PA they had me seeing left—without them telling me ahead of time, or even after until I tried to schedule an appointment and couldn't get the online request to work—is really, really some shit. But people want to know why I want nothing to do with them? Lol ok.

“OMG. I hate facebook so much. I never use it."

...and then they get hype for all their online lives to be on Zuckerberg’s latest disaster.

I made two snarky posts. I'll let my “social graph" follow me there. They know where to find me, should they ever care enough to try. I'm not holding my breath. So much for genuine connections or whatever if people can complain about how many apps they've downloaded…but have never once tried a decent Masto app.

@maskedscheduler That's fair. I actually wondered if they were even going to figure numbers on that the same way they normally would or if some other kind of magical "new" math was happening.
