Sorry for being like. Extremely quiet on here and my other socials.
Things have been tricky lately in terms of depression. I’m going to see my psychiatrist this month and hopefully sort things out.
For now: if you need to reach me, I’m on discord. Message me if you want it.

"Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein" is a phrase that first appeared in newspapers in March 2011 and appeared regularly from that point onward. it is INCONCEIVABLE to me that this many people were still associating with him!!

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Just idly thinking how cool it is that Kikiyama, developer of Yume Nikki just dropped one of the most influential free games anywhere and then disappeared.

All we really know is that the money from merch on Fangamer DOES reach them, and that Toby Fox interviewed them but they'd only answer Yes/No.

imagine explaining a $1.3 million bill for medical care to somebody who lives in a country where people aren't required to do things like ration their insulin.

ACA being better than what we had before is a different statement than saying it is a good and durable health care policy regime
Are we doing "The ACA Sucks" Discourse again?

I'm going to guess most people hating on it from the left have never received a hospital bill the size of book; I put the apple there for scale.

That's the $1.3 million bill my kid incurred in his first ~94 days. Why does that make me respect the ACA?

The entire "free speech on campus" moral panic was manufactured to blackmail us into making space in intellectual life for bigots and charlatans who couldn't get there on their own merits. Its a DEI scheme for fascism. Congratulations to everyone who took it at face value.
“Following his lecture, Yarvin will debate the legendary British historian David Starkey on history and the future of conservatism.” Everything about this is so cursed. Masks off at the University of Oxford.

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.
NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

to be honest I've always found it kinda fun to end up being a little bit crappy at whatever I try to do... Takes a lot of pressure off, and I feel like everyone can tell when you're doing something just for the love of the game

the biggest joke on bsky is the idea that a meaningful number of people are here for the promise of eventual decentralization. if we gave a shit about that we’d all be on mastodon. we just want less shitty twitter with fewer nazis. but the staff is too tech industry libertarian brained to understand

An Andrew Tate and Charlie Kirk fan just murdered two teenage girls. In a livestream now taken down he claimed they had made fun of Charlie Kirk's death.

This is the real world consequences of the hate and misogyny the right promotes while claiming the left is violent.

It is incredibly funny how the Bluesky team thinks that everyone is here because of their cool new coding system and framework to build your own siloed communities meanwhile 99% of their user base has no clue about any of that shit and is only here because it is like Twitter before Elon bought it
