I don’t think they communicate enough. I can’t grow aloe or succulents. I have a limited number of plants I can sustain inside. I tend to neglect them, then get crazy & do too much. That causes fungus and rot from dead roots getting soaked.

I need plants that flop or look needy before death spiral.

That’s irrelevant. I’m not you. I’m not complaining. I can answer a straightforward question and in a way that makes sense. I’m also happy to clarify if asked

What’s Bb?
Why can’t you answer a straightforward question?

Is it normal for you to grow this obsessed with someone you find so loathsome?

Again, that combination of words doesn’t make sense.

He doesn’t know how anything works outside of the corrupt bubble. Agriculture doesn’t work like other industries.

It’s a sick joke for him to claim farmers don’t understand tariffs. Fuck that guy.

Trump says U.S. cattle ranchers 'don't understand' tariffs after some slam Argentine beef plan

President Donald Trump said U.S. cattle ranchers "don't understand" how they have benefitted from his tariffs, adding that they "have to get their prices down."

Strange. I think you might be projecting.

I’m fine. You’re the one complaining.

You didn’t answer me. Why would you ask me that?

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 7h

Huh?

I’m saying that the two people and their histories are entirely different. They are not comparable.

People are rewriting John Fetterman’s history to suit this story. It’s entirely different.

I won’t say that about all republicans. There are logical and forgivable explanations for registering Republican and voting that way. None I agree with, except living in a deep red state & primaries are the elections.

It is true of the current batch that’s in leadership and on their farm team.

Why is that funny?

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

Right. He did.

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

Why would you ask that?
You don’t make a lot of sense.

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

The conspiracy theories are strong, the knowledge is weak, in you.

Are you Canadian?

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

He did.

I thought you were on a pleasant walk with pals. Odd choice, but if you prefer poking me instead of hanging out with pals, so be it.

I’m not likely to be any more appealing after being poked. Keep poking, you’ll get the same results.

Probably for the best. You don’t seem to be in a mood for pals.

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

You still didn’t explain your “whatabout” claim.

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

Do you blame the pile of shit?
Do you generally choose to stay and spend your time engaging with it?
Are your pals forcing you to do so?

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 10h

How are you both “having a great time” and claiming I’m “incredibly unpleasant” at the same time?

What shit? I simply asked what you believed was a “whataboutism”. That you couldn’t provide an answer is not my fault.

Is someone forcing you to interact with me? Are you being threatened or coerced?

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 11h

That doesn’t make sense, but I think I understand your sentiment.

Your opinion has been heard.

I’m sorry you’re so upset.

Grumble Kitty @grumblekitty.bsky.social · 11h

No more calling them “conservative”. Don’t let them get away with that bit of bullshit.

Stop comparing him to John Fetterman.
This is nothing like John Fetterman.

Fetterman had a stroke. He was never a Nazi. He didn’t post racist & misogynistic tropes and brush it off as if it was normal when in a bad mood or “playing around on the internet”.

Fetterman actually had experience

I must rush out and buy some to inspect right away! It’s to protect the children.

I sometimes have these little spats with someone. It’s kind of a hobby. Like a puzzle. It’s not that deep for me. No one is going to die or suffer more because of a social media spat about terminology & past elections

The way I phrase things can be off-putting to some too. I know.

I don’t know where they put it. I noticed it wasn’t here. I think there might have been parallel threads crossed.

Doesn’t matter.

We can disagree on various nuances and still be on the same side. It helps to slow down when possible and prioritize how you’re going to use your personal resources.

They’ve been convinced all doctors and people with higher education are “elites”. The “Them”.
They can’t be mad at god. They can’t be or express anger at men they depend on. They don’t have enough education to discern good medical information from bad. It’s based in culture & observation, not reason
