That feeling is why I #SharGoodNewsToo Many things are terrible, but the year we have a malaria vaccine, a shot that gives 100% HIV protection, & global carbon output is finally *falling* not rising should see a mix of headlines not 100% bad. They want despair; despair stops action #HopeIsResistance

It’s as if the NYT wants us to know they hate fucked Hillary to the extent that loser Trump got elected, and they’re gonna show us we better r expect them, or they’ll do it again. Like a hot tempered dad that beats you, and gets mad that you don’t respect him, so he beats you more.

Happy 4th of July to our friends at home in the US. In the words of Woody Guthrie:

In the shadow of the steeple I saw my people,
By the relief office I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?

I don’t see that. I see a whole ruling cadre that’ve made it this far w.o. any consequences, ever. Between L Leo’s payments, Fox & Friends ego stroking, and the realization they really have no limits on them, they’re free to slap us around. I wonder if Biden has the huevos to even see the problem.

I don't want to think of myself as an accelerationist, but watching those 2 pale riders jibber & jive about the empire we inhabit? Not good.

Thoughts- One of the recurring fears in the American FP space is Taiwan. China’s been trying to build up its position w Russia as a counterweight to the west, but a RUS-NK linkage makes things more complicated. Kim is irrational, and China is the one that has to deal w them, not RUS. So, weirdness.

And unfortunately, rather than learn any lessons from this and try to make the system better, our state legislature uses it to vilify China and the cannabis industry. It don’t expect Okie Republicans to do anything useful, but I DO expect them to watch out for the state and their constituents.

Because it’s yummy. Or maybe it’s your suicide gene. You know, that part of your makeup, or your psyche, that pushes you into doing things wrong. Making the Bad Decision. Again. We all do it, some more than others. Maybe it’s a symptom of depression, I don’t know. But I’ve had it all my life

The indoor rally is held in deep red Tulsa, Oklahoma, where health restrictions on gatherings were lax. Former GOP candidate Herman Cain, an advocate of mask “freedom,” is among many who catches the virus at the superspreader event. He dies a month later.

Before the rally, Trump and his campaign had crowed with increasing excitement about the vast interest in tickets - one million people, they said, had signed up to attend the 19,000 seat venue. They don't seem to realize that K-pop fans on TikTok had requested thousands of tickets as a prank.

You can say that you’re tired of being told this is The Most Important Election Of Our Lives, but the reality is that preventing a coup is going to take overwhelming numbers of votes for the foreseeable future and if you aren’t willing to vote all the time you have to be ready for The Consequences.

When we talked abt this earlier I got curious as to the weather in Portland that eve.; 58 degrees. No wonder yr having trouble. I can’t even conceive that in June, on a regular basis. No wonder y’all don’t have a/c, just open up the windows overnight and pull the cool air in.

Nobody gives a fuck what Gen X says, does, or thinks, and that’s the way we like it. If that sounds like whining, you’ve missed out on a lot. This new ‘Gen X complains abt drinking out of a hose’ dialogue is just to rile y’all up on social media, by a clique that’s fallen in love w the camera

Speeders that see a cop and don’t get caught feel like they’ve won. If they get pulled over, it’s a legit loss. But getting caught unknowingly, by a machine, feels illegitimate. That’s my take on this pile of weirdness you have going in your comments. I typically don’t speed.

I gotta be honest, here. All this ‘Gen X says blah blah blah, and we think xyz’ feels off to me. The point, the actual fucking point, of being Gen X is the NOBODY GAVE A SHIT ABOUT US, WHAT WE SAID, OR WHAT WE THOUGHT. About *anything*. WE cared, but there weren’t enough of us for it to matter.

What exactly is it abt NY Dems? Is it simply there’s a critical mass of Republicans that call themselves Democrats, so they’ll get elected? Or is there something more weird at play? Or is it just ‘money grubbing leads to stupidity’?
