Ruben Gallego voted YES to 10 of Trump's cabinet picks.
He is a PRO-TRUMP DEMOCRAT, a liar, and a POS.
Never forget that these people SUPPORTED Trump.

Every technological innovation now and in the future will always reproduce and amplify the inequality we have today until the underlying structural systems are challenged. Debating each new tech innovation is a distraction, it's our culture, society, politics, and economy.

I would like to call out @nin.com for working with this creep.

Also for booking Danny Elfman for Future Ruins.

A lot of poor judgment from @treznor.bsky.social lately!

"Do you think it was having it lead by a widely hated cardboard actor who's also a sexpest cult leader who's every project in the last decade being record breaking bombs, and sprinkle it with cameos from some nepotistic rich shitheads?"

"No, it was the Tron that was wrong."

This is all so pointless: just all this suffering, for nothing. They will lose. The world is diverse, nation states are obsolete: gated communities for different races has been tried and it ended in disaster, and it will again this time too.

PSA: if you think some lives are worth more than others based on belonging to a specific race/ethnicity/gender/ability/religion or any combination of the above, I have news for you. You are a Nazi. Whether you see yourself that way or not, doesn't matter: you are a Nazi. And we will defeat you.

The Baileys said it was normal so Chuck is OK with it.

This resonates with me.

We know what is going on, but are seemingly stuck in repeating it, and it has been more or less the same shit for 10 years.

We have to also contend with people like Radio Tom who are paid to deny what is happening, and make people second guess themselves.

I keep thinking of a post I saw recently which said something like *fascism is what white people call it when they're treated at home like they treat the rest of the world*

Thinking about how much of their violence has been normalized already, how scenes that caused shockwaves 6 weeks ago are now part of the rhythm of daily life. Watched a TikTok from a daughter who has to do her parents' laundry & get their groceries because they're in hiding. This is just it now
