a frustrating issue with twitter being a nazi bar is that you can watch the people hanging out there gradually become nazis and get real fucking salty at the audacity of anyone pointing it out.
it's deleted now but for like a full hour the Democratic Party official twitter had accidentally put up the itinerary graphic for the DNC in Chicago like way ahead of the actual press effort to announce/promote it.
an amazing preview of things to come, i'm sure! off to an amazing start.
I posted about quoting that knzk Obama line "hell no I'm not registered to vote" and woke up to an Australian and a Swedish guy my menchies going back forth with each other about how it takes compulsory/automatic registration to make a TRUE democracy. 😒
every time I boost your post, please imagine me frail, laying on a makeshift cot, and handing you a small blue glowing jellybean like "take this ... it is the very last of my clout on this website... may it *cough* carry your post to the oasis of destiny."
tooo be fair Joe Biden only got into federal government a mere 51 years ago and spent a scant 8 years as the number two position in the executive branch, so you can see how he was ill-prepared to understand the unpredictable and relatively recent issue of conflict in the levant.
I love environmental storytelling. like in the first Bioshock when you see that splicer lady doing googoo baby talk over a pram, but then you get closer to the stroller and see that there's a gun in there. and you think "holy shit, that lady gave birth to a gun!!"
the way Shaun King keeps re-emerging for new scams is like the closest thing online has to Batman villains breaking out of Arkham every couple months. like you see that Shaun King is out and selling something new and think "didn't they get rid of that guy?" but nope, he's back for another crime.
identity is a negotiated projection between yourself and those who perceive you.
so, like all negotiations, start at a maximalist position. open with as much identity as possible. when you meet somebody new, come in hot with at least fourteen separate genders. insist that you're twenty feet tall. scream incredibly loud but act like it's a normal conversational level. let them negotiate you down from this.
Zuckerberg is such a dork. MFer just watched that The Social Network movie and was like "wauuww I am gonna model my whole life on this unlikable character. I am gonna miss the point here entirely!"
like the dudes who take Fight Club to seriously but with a less interesting David Fincher movie.
apropos nothing, it's been a few minutes since some dipshit posted "hey guys I am making a tool you're gonna love. ya see I've been scraping all your posts for the last four months and..."
gradually, but inexorably, people will come to understand that crossover thrash of the late 80s into early 90s is both the finest music ever produced and the greatest fashion/look ever donned by humanity.
and i will be waiting at that place of understanding to welcome your arrival.
it's some wild mental gymnastics to say the nazis were bad, but also sad beans and remorseful. it was so hard on them they needed a little drinky-poo at the end of the day!! but palestineans? not human. no heart. completely unprecedented evil.
has it ever mattered that Wolverine is Canadian? like is it a largely inconsequential bit of his backstory, or was there ever a writer that made him say stuff like "Canada isn't as progressive as its marketing would have you believe, bub! snikt!"
my uncle works in construction and he said autocad is gonna be phased out in the next few years and all architectural plans are gonna be made by Zoomers in Minecraft.
I don't know what good this possibly does for me to voice, so I would never weigh in on any discussion with what could be construed as a derailing opinion, but it does feel to me that after several years we can conclude that most of the disputes over what people do in the name of "safety" on this swiss cheese ass platform are minimally effective at making anyone safer and mostly expose well intentioned people to *more* abusive trash in their sisyphean task.
