Some people will really piss directly into the wind instead of going to therapy.

Uncle Iroh forces Prince Zuko to examine whether or not being a pissy edgelord is really the solution to his problems.

White liberals: "Democracy depends on our willingness to debate the issues and listen to opposing viewpoints!"

The opposing viewpoint:

Ultima ratio regum:
The closing argument of kings.

No matter how smart you are, or how good you are at rhetoric or debate, you will never be able to talk a bullet into missing you.

Hi. There is an influx of government sites and I’m gonna use what little clout I have

To say

Don’t bait them.

pay them DUST.

Commit to boosting coverage of what they do, centering the voices of who they target .

In fact start muting folks who over antagonize them

I assume that 90% of the time when you "finish" a water bottle or a coke there's still like 2 or 3 ounces in the bottle when you throw it out.

The government heard y'all were talking about bootyholes and rushed right over. Coincidence I think not.

They are arriving because of the mass mobilizations and they have figured out that Twitter isn't going to be the main space to monitor activity.

I assume that you are a person with little or no poker face, especially in social situations.

I took 20 seconds to scroll to see if it was as bad as I expected (it was) and then blocked.

So 15 seconds slower than the time I blocker JD Vance.

Bonus points for the fact that we're in low key space race again with an emerging communist superpower that very pointedly DOES NOT hire Nazis. All while actively resegregating the military.

If and when Elon proposes a weaponized Falcon 9 to drop warheads on London, I will fucking die laughing.

A.K. Allen @akallen.blacksky.app · 10h

You really don't find it itonic, the absolute symmetry of the fact that ONCE AGAIN the only way America can pull off a moon landing is by hiring a Nazi to build a giant rocket?

I mean maybe Musk is just an ASPIRING Nazi, but it's funny as hell that we've managed to come full circle.

What if most straight people weren't actually straight?

What if sexual orientation isn't a binary concept and most straight people are actually bi with a strong hetero leaning?

What if the person they're really trying to prove their straightness to is THEMSELVES?

NIKKI Baby 🍫♊️💜 @becauseofnikki.blacksky.app · 19h

Being straight isn’t an issue. The issue is the constant need to prove how straight you are. Which tends to veer right into homophobia.

As an Arnold Palmer, I’ve NEVER felt the need to prove that I was Bi. I just am.

It’s almost as if most straight people don’t believe they’re straight! 🤷🏾‍♀️

On the topic of masculinity/male gender roles, one of my favorite things to do is to turn it on itself. Like, as a man why are you letting other men dictate your identity? You still looking for validation from dad at your big age? How you a player 2 ass nigga in real life?
