It's quite a time to be someone like me who is strongly against the death penalty...
I knew a second Trump term would be bad. But even I wasn't prepared for just how evil they would be...

On top of that, they have joked about murdering innocent fisherman who just so happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Our leaders have no humanity left in them... Who knows if they ever had any to begin with.
Conservatives are the party of bullies and bigots. I'm so sick of it...

Also, who are you watching this season? At this point, I'm watching about half of them, I think. I added Ethoslab since last season I watched. And I'm excited for Decked Out 3! The 2nd one is a lot of fun. I had fun playing on the world download.

I didn't think I'd like it at first, but it's now one of my favorite games. And the cool thing is you can play how you want. Just want to build? Play in creative mode. Want to challenge yourself? There's several options. Just want to relax on peaceful mode? Sure! There's no right way to play.

Someone assigned male should never debase themselves by becoming a woman. Someone assigned female can never reach the ranks of manhood. "Know your place." There's a reason there's so much overlap between transphobes and anti-Feminists who think women shouldn't work or go to school. Same root.

And if their reasoning is something along the lines of there being more people in the US creating more demand for housing, then shouldn't they be happy with low birth rates? But they want people to have more kids, which would ALSO create more demand for housing, right?
I don't understand the Right.

We don't really have a traditional meal in my family, but we've done brisket a few times and that was lovely. One thing we did do while my dad was still alive was make Monkey Bread for Christmas. But that's not a meal... just something fun for breakfast.

I grew up during the HP hype, but that wasn't my first fandom at all. It was the first one for many, I'm sure. But mine was Lord of the Rings. My dad was part of several fandoms before I was born, including Star Trek and Doctor Who, which are still strong fandoms to this day! Same with Star Wars.

The richest man in the world made... a bully machine? I guess that's not surprising. It is "Mecha Hitler" after all. Not to mention the social media site he runs is a safe haven for bigots and the worst types of people who don't know how to behave around other humans.

They already don't think trans people exist. A trans person could be standing right there in front of them and they will tell them that there's no such thing as transgender. There's really no use engaging with people who can't accept reality and human diversity.

"Let's talk." Uh, no. I'm not going to debase myself arguing with people who don't accept me for who I am and want to reduce me to nothing more than body parts and biological functions and want to take away my body autonomy and freedom of expression. I'll pass.

If ever your mom, or anyone, starts talking about this topic, feel free to mention to them what I just talked about in this thread. I think I may do the same if anyone starts going down that talking point with me. Maybe it would be better as a question. "How can something be free if it has a cost?"
