remember when elon musk was still in government and DOGE still active and they pretended for like a week rampent social security fraud was happening, and then it turned out they just didn’t understand that databases would include people who passed away and we never heard about this “fraud” again lol

i'd even argue that the original Scream wouldn't work if not for the cordless phone, which tethers the victim to a place but still lets them roam all the dark corners of the house. 1996 a perfect moment in time for this idea. movie made to be rented at Blockbuster

They really really think advertising is real.

It's honestly remarkable how smooth their brains are.

as we near the 48 hour period that marks my HRT and sobriety anniversaries, it's time for the post I do every year:

if you have ever—for more than six minutes, total—considered that transition and/or sobriety might improve your quality of life, you should try it. your only regret will be waiting.

And actually astonishing when you think about it: The Trump administration's top officials are choosing to separate themselves from the public—more to the point: separate themselves from any visible protest—and live on military bases.

Reading about the petition to remove Bad Bunny from the Super Bowl halftime show is like a microcosm for how journalism treats this country’s niche racists. 50K signatures on an online petition is nothing, a fraction of a fraction of one percent of the country.

capitalism was never going to allow this to happen, no matter how tantalizingly close we got. we must eliminate it entirely for any chance at something authentically better
I think a lot about the chance we had at the start of COVID to finally become a more compassionate, collectivist nation, and how profoundly we were failed not only by the sociopathic greed of the ruling class but by each other.

It doesn’t mean we won’t get there, but the lost opportunity haunts me.
Remember how just a few years ago during the worst of the pandemic when we saw how the govt can actually do big things and saw that our collective health & well-being are intertwined, and then corporations got mad that they lost a modicum of power and helped fund a backlash of amnesia and fascism?
