I have no idea what I'm doing here, but I assume I'll figure it out eventually.

Off to go lay off one of my favorite employees, have cried three times already this morning. He was planning to retire in a few months, literally the only thing helping me get it together. Gotta love corporate America. Okay, just had to get that out.

That alone has me determined to visit more. He thought it was $15/hr because he watches Fox News, and gasp, they mislead their viewers. (???) I swear I could radicalize him with some well placed facts. As long as he stops showing me shirts with guns on them from Temu.

Spent the morning trapped with my dad so heard about how climate change is a scam, Reagan was the best president ever, and some people in marginalized groups are actually okay. But the migrants are here to take our jobs. I missed my echo chamber. Then I blew his mind that fed min wage is still 7.25.

Came within a hair of sending "Arousing!" in a Slack message to a colleague. GD migraine and autocorrect.

It's hard to keep up with how problematic people are turning out to be. I am here for the takedown of celebrity culture, though.

The US being in the top 25 makes the entire list suspect.. What does it mean to be "happy?" Is it indoctrination and brainwashing? Comfort at the expense of others? A sense of superiority?

Just noticed that I accidentally named my Monday alarm “money.” If I subconsciously wanted a prophecy, I should have gone with “sleep more,” but I’ll take it if I can retire someday.

Thursday has the added complication of sometimes being mistaken for a Friday. Like this past week when I laid in bed for an extra thirty minutes thinking it was Friday with no morning meetings or workout.

It's so weird to try and apply capitalism to pets. They aren't an investment, or at least they shouldn't be.

Really well done, great article! I have been shocked by his blatant and aggressive actions, though I realize now I shouldn't have been.

That's where income redistribution comes in. Instead of everyone at the top hoarding wealth, some of it is actually invested in ensuring proper coverage.

Jeff Jackson, for example, would likely be president within a decade before this. He had a loud and enthusiastic following. Gen Z is pretty unforgiving of hypocrisy. Of anything really. 😕

I’m not saying it’s a good thing. I’m saying it is inevitable considering the noise and overall visibility. They’ve already alienated a lot of young voters. This was a bad move.

Yes. I think every House rep who voted yes will see how big of a mistake when they’re voted out later this year.

Wondering if there’s an influx of new folks here with the imminent TikTok ban. Are we organizing here now? And deleting meta accounts?

Vance would outshine him among his most likely fan base. No way he'll choose him. Honestly, it might even put a bigger target on his back with some groups that could actually get it done.

As someone who was sick for five weeks across the GD holidays and my one full two-week vacation I get to enjoy and then got a multi-migraine-triggering sinus infection, agreed. I miss when kids wore masks at school.

They were talking mostly to young white women, who are still protected sometimes by white supremacists.

Friend, Israel admitted to creating those tunnels. I think we're done here. You aren't interested in a conversation or exchange of ideas, just reiterating talking points and propaganda.

Sure, and it's also a war crime to bomb civilians indiscriminately and to target civilians. They're sniping grandmas and kids over there. I can't look away from the reality here and reduce these people to unfortunate casualties of a "necessary" war. My comfort is not a priority.

Did you imagine that I am defending Hamas? I'm talking about Palestinians, not the wealthy Hamas leader who is safe on his bunker. Is it really so hard to separate those in your mind? Maybe it's time for you to learn critical thinking.

Sincerely, look for information about what's going on there daily, seek reports of info that aren't completely sanitized. Check Bisan and Motaz, citizen reporters. I deeply hope you and those like you just aren't seeing the reality yet.

I get that. Do you get that over two million people in Gaza are literally starving now? You can find pictures of children waiting in food lines and sobbing because they waited all day and got nothing. Are you seeing the amputation on kids without anesthesia? The situation is dire.

Two days. It took 2 days posting on this app again to find the boring conservative who wobbly lobs a vicious "you're just an SJW" at me. I hope your red hat permanently adheres to your head. 👋

You don't give a fuck about people unless they're bringing you something you want or have light skin. See, I can make assumptions based on very little info too!

It pertains to your original comment. Eh, not worth arguing with you over the value of commodities vs human life. Hope you reflect on the insidiousness of white supremacist capitalism sometime, best of luck.

I notice too that you didn't address our for profit prison system. It's almost like choosing not to care about atrocities here at home, almost like you've been conditioned to ignore them and focus on the "other."

No one has died from what the Houthis are doing. Their aim is to disrupt and stop the genocide, not murder people. Interesting, isn't it, that our govt cares more about commercial disruption than the millions of displaced, starving, dying people.
