And if you’re having a hard time getting why someone has been deeply rewired after watching video after video of people pleading for their lives, after a stream of news reports of mass graves, bombed hospitals, and children in bags while the govt shrugs, idk, ask yourself why you haven’t been yet.

It just blows my mind when pundits are sitting there like “I don’t get it, the job market is great! It’s a great time to be young!” Okay, maybe compared to 1824, but the vast majority of young people are really struggling, materially and emotionally, right now! Dismissing genocide isn’t helping!

And if it seems like this isn’t connected to other domestic ills—it is. We’re sick, broke, can’t find good jobs, and teetering on homelessness, then listening to politicians beg for our votes as they dump trillions into the military and a genocidal “ally.” Of course they’re checked out!

“Why aren’t younger people voting???” Palestine. The answer is Palestine. Gen Z is more tuned in and getting news from more diverse sources. Any major media outlet that ignores this is contributing to the normalization of imperial violence that younger generations are finally rejecting.

imagine how much great art could have been created if we took a fraction of the money spent on getting computers to make shitty art and gave it to actual artists

I was one of the lucky ones who got diagnosed as a kid, back when they still used Asperger’s. My mother had never even heard of it. My grandpa, meanwhile, was very socially and emotionally removed, and only talked about like three things ever. But yeah, autism, just a passing fad I’m sure.

I could wax, but I really like this write up of everything the album is. The balancing act of such bleakness and hope is really masterful.

Spreading the word that Spanish Love Songs is one of the greatest punk/emo bands in recent memory and Brave Faces may be an album of the decade.

Adam Liptak should be fired for this. It's not some sort of minor technical error or a debatable issue. He's simply lying.

Appreciate it. I don’t understand this answer. There seems to be an implication that there’s some conclusion I will or will not reach, which, yeah, but I’m interested in your thoughts. If you’re not interested in answering, that’s totally okay, just say the word and I’ll move on.

again, I’m struggling to understand how allowing the Right to regain power this year would lead to any improvements, other than ushering in the worst of the destruction sooner. I know what’s also something some folks are into, but I’m personally not one of them.

Dems are also, IMO, the weaker enemy w/re: who’s easier to organize under and against. Especially because in Blue states, there are people with a tiny bit more freedom and flexibility to do so. So while I do sympathize with folks who say voting Blue is pointless bc things happening now 4/

a party that hunts for sport. I saw someone compare voting Blue as the political equivalent of hitting the snooze button. It will put off the inevitable for a little while, but in four years time the Right will come roaring back. At least there’s a little more time, but people gotta act. 3/

Something Dems don’t seem to fully be up to task for atm. Ideally we wouldn’t be voting between Dems and Republicans—it would be against Dems and a leftist party, against which Dems would almost certainly lose in time. (Ideally) But right now, we have, as you pointed out, a neglectful party and 2/

Hey there—first, I wanna say this is coming from a place of complete and total respect. I agree that bad things are happening now—and indeed, in Red States, aspects of Project 2025 are already happening. Many people are in your position. And I get it. But I genuinely don’t understand what not

Pure Protein also makes a Protein Puff that’s pretty indistinguishable from an actual Cheeto!

Otherwise, I’m thinking I’ll need to cook up some pea soup protein nature brick out of unflavored pea protein, sun dried tomatoes, and nooch. Godspeed 🫡

Omg I was JUST thinking this today. I also don’t eat meat, so a savory protein snack that isn’t jerky would be ideal.

I know Quest makes protein chips! I’ve tried them and they’re pretty good.
