This is incredibly painful for me. I have never asked for help like this before. But I have had people reach out to me asking if they can help, so I am sharing my story and finally asking for help.

I've been lucky to have a lovely group of followers here, please share if you can, anything helps <3

I am so deeply sorry to be in the position to have to pull this lever again, but I just watched my car get towed away and I don't really know what else to do anymore.

More details in the update & description, but if you're able to help out or share, we would be grateful beyond words.

If Palmer Luckey had any balls, he would've played Dark Souls in that Sword Art Online, exploding headset that he made.

So glad we're passing defense spending bills with bipartisan support and 4% increase to military pay, right before we get into an illegal war with Venezuela.

My wife hasn't had a cost of living raise in over five years qnd our healthcare costs have doubled, but this is cool too.

This is the problem with Newsom. He doesn't actually believe in anything, so he thinks quoting Reagan wins him points with... some mythical group of "real" Americans? Disaffected conservatives? Unclear.

What is clear, is that Reagan is responsible for most of our current problems and sucks ass.
The presidency once served as a reminder of our common humanity. Ronald Reagan described its purpose as building "a nation composed of good and decent people."

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

Thinking about this more. Just 20 years ago we had GTA's "hot coffee" controversy. Call of Duty's "No Russian" media firestorm was only about 15 years ago.

Now we have photoreal bodies being ripped apart during an interspecies orgy premiering at a mass market event, and it's barely even a blip.
I am 100% pro Larian doing whatever pervert shit it wants and I can’t wait for another game where you can like, fuck a squid or whatever, but it really does further drive home the two-tier system of enforcement on storefronts. Bg3 contains basically everything small games get banned for

If I see another person say "what have we become" in response to the US destabilizing and installing a puppet regime in a South American country, I'm going to have an aneurysm.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

This is obviously just eugenics with extra mental gymnastics, but it's also really funny, because those people have no idea how complex evolution is or how long natural selection takes.
So, I have read articles written by people who claim that the entire concept of modern medicine is bad, because "artificially" saving people's lives has put a stop to human evolution by letting genetically inferior people breed. Great that those folks are in charge of the CDC now.
EXCLUSIVE: CDC to end all monkey studies. Decision handed down by recent college grad and former DOGE employee who is now deputy chief of staff at the agency. Animals were being used in studies of HIV prevention. Some may be euthanized. My latest for @science.org

While I despise Fetterman, and everything he pretends to stand for, you have to give credit where credit is due. Preemptively putting yourself in jail is a bold political move.
Here's John Fetterman complaining on CNN about how mean Bluesky is to him -- and how the far-left is way more "poisonous" than the far-right.

I had to go on my wife's insurance, despite it raising the cost by like 300 dollars per month because my marketplace plan was going to be 50% more than that *before* the price hikes.

Join a union folks.
Not gonna lie you all…. Things are about to get really bad for freelancers in an industry that is already facing collapse. We’re in the early stages of investigating offering insurance with UVW-CWA but in the meantime so many of us are going to get even more squeezed.

If you lose your company a million dollars, you're a disasterous liability. But if you lose your company a billion dollars you're the CEO.
ICYMI: Microsoft’s charge “implies a more than $12 billion quarterly loss at OpenAI, said Firoz Valliji, an analyst at Bernstein.”

That “would mark one of the largest single-quarter losses for a tech company in history.”
