Hi, y'all.

A lot of you followed me tonight because @blueheronfarm.bsky.social reskeeted my post.

A few things to know.

1) most of my posts are cars, dogs, or food.
2) most of my RePosts are politics.
3) I know one hell of a lot about 1 and 2, might hold degrees in some of them.

Welcome on board

society should put 'living wages' and 'human dignity' in locked display cases where capital can't shoplift them so easily

Past is prologue.

In 1933, during the Great Depression, a group of wealthy businessmen tried to overthrow the US government and install a fascist dictator to protect their own interests.

And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.

This is not a history lesson, it’s a warning.

Trump is trying to serve Ukraine up on a platter that looks precisely like the platter Putin's guys demanded in the 2016 quid pro quo offer given to Paul Manafort.

Taibbi: MAN, THE EPSTEIN FILES IS JUST LIKE RUSSIAGATE
This is Trump trying to force Ukraine into a surrender. Anyone who describes it as anything otherwise is just doing Putin's dirty work, like Trump.

Elsewhere everyone’s laughing about Grok’s sycophantic answers about Musk’s intelligence and physical prowess, but the project is to make the truth too expensive (in terms of time and resources) for ordinary people to find. Most users will accept the ‘truth’ provided by the model owners.

This is what happens when you train your model to give weight to ‘unwoke’ sources that are actually conspiratorial garbage.

toasters need to be listed with specs about what size of bread you can fit in them. Big Kitchen does not want us to know or else it'll expose the conspiracy theory between bakeries and white goods makers to never match their dimensions

If you've got your eyes on something for Christmas, please get your orders in as early as possible - I will be posting orders all the way through, but things will no doubt be slowed down with tariffs etc.

JFC, there's a level of cruelty I never even imagined. WTAF is wrong with the people that come up with this shit. It's possible for us all to easily coexist.
The UK is considering a policy that would effectively segregate trans people from society. It would bar trans people from "single sex spaces" even when they use the facility of their sex assigned at birth.

This is a full on policy of segregation without even the benefit of separate facilities.

Okay, y'all, seriously. Advice wanted on beagles and Christmas trees. I'm worried he's going to pee on it or try to eat it. At the very least he's going to belly crawl around and behind it.

Options are elevate it, or put it behind a gate unless someone has a better suggestion.
Current household text thread: how do we handle Christmas tree vs. beagle since it’s his first Christmas with us and he’s unlikely to NOT do something destructive?

corporate monarchy (the techbros' wet dream of Dark Enlightenment) implies indentured servitude for the multitudes, for those who've been a little slow on the uptake

it starts with farmers, it doesn't end there

This is ostensibly why they're trying to pitch the system towards indentured servitude.

Kick out all the immigrants, and then compel the lower class white folks to work. Want health care, work in the fields, owe back taxes, work in the fields, declaring bankruptcy, work in the fields
