The thing that's obvious to everyone and that nobody can actually write in the press is that the American (and yes, I'm sure elsewhere too) right wing is led by bad people and the object is to make more people extremely bad in basically every respect. It's anti-society

I would do this more, but as it turns out, I don't have any friends. (I do still write the occasional Goodreads review and more often review the books I've read on my tumblr, but virtually nobody follows me there anyway.)

Or buy a bunch of different socks and don't care if they're mismatched. (This is what I do, unless I'm going somewhere where it will matter that my socks don't match, which almost never happens.)

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler

I find this to be true of 99% of ads I see/hear anywhere, actually. Also one of the podcasts I subscribe to *really* wants me to go to Texas, a place I have no intention of ever going even if I could afford it.

Immigrants are critical to our society. They’re also critical to the American economy, paying billions in taxes and boosting economic growth. The demagogues who say otherwise are just trying to divide us against each other to consolidate their own power. Don't fall for it.

Not the most terrifying thing but perhaps the most infuriating: every single thing we said about these fascist Republican fucks has been proved out and all the people who assured us that what is happening would never happen smoothly pivoted to yes it's happening but it will be fine.

You know how sometimes in war there’s the one side who has rules and thinks they know how war is fought but then they’re shocked, SHOCKED, when the other side runs out of the bushes and like, stabs their horses and shit? And that side wins? Yeah I think about that phenomenon a lot these days.

SCOTUS has ruled that presidents are essentially monarchs who can commit crimes, bribery is legal, federal regulatory agencies have no authority to keep us safe, and homeless people can be punished for being homeless. Is it any wonder why public approval of this court is so low?

Banning medical debt from credit reports. Cracking down on junk fees. Banning non-competes. Capping credit card fees. Negotiating drug prices. Expanding OT pay. These Biden policies don't make headlines, but this is what it looks like when government works for the people.

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

I know these are polarizing times, but if you take the time to talk to American conservatives and center-right types and really listen to what they believe is right and just and good, they sure do sound like the worst people on the planet .
