In the last few moments I’ve seen several videos of JD Vance saying different shit on here, all of it of the high school wannabe-fascist variety. Anyway, I’ve always actively avoided hearing him speak before. What a spineless sounding fucking loser dork. Negative charisma. This guy is the VP? lol

There is SO much junk social science around introversion and extroversion. And a lot of hostility. Hell, I’ve even heard podcasters and YouTubers who are all about tackling junk social science, harp on and on about how introverted they are.

Every time I see a social media meme about being an introvert, which is at least once a week, I think about how the modern conception of introversion was popularized by a book by a woman who worked on Wall Street who felt that she was so different and special compared to her coked up male colleagues

So many people who posture themselves as staunch leftists/liberals/etc, publicly fight all day on social media with bigots, but keep a friend group of the Sinister Six because they fear actual conflict.

When your activism starts outward, you're only avoiding the most important fight.

This whole Nazi tattoo dude in the Senate nonsense is revealing of a lot of white folks. Oh your friends have Nazi tattoos too? Oh it doesn't bother you at all? Oh your whole crew you been rolling with has them & y'all are all perfectly democratic? Fascinating. Taking notes.

Right! Supermarkets throw away food that isn’t even going to give them a profit anymore rather than give it to starving people! It’s an insane practice among a country full of insane practices. Just a deeply broken and rotten world.

You simply cannot “abuse” a program that provides food to people. It doesn’t exist as a concept except in the minds of jealous clowns, busybodies, abd outright bigots.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I get paid 7 figures a year to come up with this shit. Some stuff I have cooking up for you to look forward to: Amazon Prime changing to Amazon Plus. Paramount Plus changing to Paramount Now. HBO Max changing to just HBO. I fucking hate all of you and I will never stop.

Headline about Apple TV+ changing to Apple TV.

The regime's desire for authoritarianism is bottomless, but their capacity is not. Not even close.

They rely on bluster and memes to make up the difference. The threat is real, but less powerful than they say.

Freedom-loving Americans outnumber them by a lot. Communities can resist. Like this one:

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

Comics/graphic novels aren’t recognized or taken seriously as literature in the publishing industry, despite taking twice as much work to create as prose novels, and it just breaks my heart.

That’s it, that’s the take.

Please read more comics.

What I love about it is it shows how everyone in that wealthy tech-class bubble can’t help but be this way. They’re all just callous little pricks when you scratch the surface just a little.

These people are so evil abd this is such blatant authoritarian racist rhetoric. If the GOP had any shame they should be ashamed of themselves. Unfortunately, they love this shit.
