I have a plan for the future, should we get the chance, that will guarantee that Congress will represent us and understand exactly what it's like to live as an average American in this country.

Devlyn's plan for the political future of this country:

You want to run for Congress or President? New requirements!

Pass a test about the Constitution & how the government works. Pass a criminal background check.

Live for 1 year in an apt while working at Walmart. You may only live on your wages & whatever govt benefit you're eligible for. You will simulate having 2 children living with you, so you must figure out transportation, child care & food, all while renting a place big enough for all of you.

You can only buy a car if you save the money from working. If you can't afford a car, you better hope there's public transportation or you'll be walking. You must pay all the fees, gas, insurance & maintenance.

During this year, you will simulate several scenarios. First, you will be sick with pneumonia & out of work for 2 weeks. Maybe you'll lose your job because you're sick. You probably can't afford insurance, so you'll put off going to the doctor until you're really sick. Your medications will be too expensive, so you'll have to get creative & still feed your children.

Next, your children will get sick 2-3 times each, at different times, & require medical care & you'll need to figure out who's going to take care of them because you'll get fired if you miss anymore work.

Then, if you have managed to get a car, it will have a major mechanical issue. You'll need to figure out how to get it fixed, but until you can, you're without a car.

Then your mom gets sick & can't live alone anymore. Now you'll need to figure out where she'll go. With you? A home? You're barely surviving as it is. Good luck with that.

If you survive a year without killing your kids, or Mom, or going to jail for being homeless because you lost everything due to the high costs of living and low tolerance for missed days of work regardless of the reasons, then you have a good idea of what regular American deal with every single day, and you *might* be ready to represent them in Congress.

If you can't make it year, welcome to reality! You better start protesting & advocating for change in the system so that you can pass the bare minimum to represent the rest of us that are struggling in ways that never occurred to you before you lived in our world.

Here's my protest umbrella from the last No Kings protest.

Protest sign: why are masked men kidnapping and killing people with GOP approval?

Protest sign that says the only monarch we want in the United States with a picture of a monarch butterfly

Protest umbrella with signs that say "we paid into social security for our future not to subsidize billionaires" "Remove corrupt proof, reverse the damage, reclaim democracy" and "tariffs are another tax on your groceries"

Protest umbrella with signs that say "tariffs are another tax on your groceries" "ban the fascists, save the books" and "equality for all"

I wonder what he said to her after playing tug-a-war with her arm.

Android has Google lens. Download sometime with text, open it in Google photos and Google lens is under the options. It selects and copies text

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 6h

Boooo. I'm sorry you missed it.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 7h

It doesn't matter if I trust her or not. Doesn't matter if she's putting on a front or lying or grifting.

She's helping and right now we need all the help we can get.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 7h

They started it lol

I haven't seen them in a few years. I saw the Primus and the Chocolate Factory tour. It was so cool. And they opened for themselves, so they did all their popular stuff and then the Chocolate Factory part. They had oompa loompas! It was great.

Primus sucks!!

Again**

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 8h

Thank you! I would do the same.

I'm so sick of the system. We need an overhaul.

What happened to Lauren Blowjob?

I can't even remember the last time I saw her name in the news.

Not that I actually give a fuck, but I am kinda sad that she's not the worst, most embarrassing thing about our country anymore.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 9h

💯

It's so annoying. Hey, my head feels like it's going to explode, maybe you can give me a shot that helps and let me sleep until you feel it's safe to drive. Don't make me stay in pain.

It was torturous..

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 10h

Are you saying you're sick too?

Feel better!

And thanks! 💙

They are angry they can't fight us because we tell the truth.

@vexwerewolf

Right-wingers literally straight-up admitting "it's harder to discredit the left because the left is almost always telling the truth"

Scott Jennings @Lum_. 21h

um, yes, that's really a problem

The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality rightwing content.

That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well.

In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly aren't usually on our side.

There's a "free speech" bar by my house, but don't call the bartender a cunt or you'll get banned.

Maga thinks free speech is saying whatever they approve of you saying.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 10h

Damn, I should've thought of that!

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 10h

It's always been that way with them.

Devlyn Angel, ETQ 😈😇 @devlynangel.bsky.social · 10h

Things I learned this week:

I'm allergic to amoxicillin. Apparently at some point I knew this. Luckily it's not a severe allergy

It's not a fever until it hits 100.5°F

They won't do dental work if your sick

The ER won't help your pain if you don't have a ride and they won't allow Uber
