The whole "the curtain is blue!" discourse has convinced half the population that artists have no themes or questions their work explores. People, this is not an English teacher conspiracy. Artists do include symbolism and subtext!

Poe even explicitly said the poem hinged on the repetition of "nevermore." It wasn't that he liked ravens ffs. What kind of baby brained crap is this

Immediately claiming your interlocutor is crazy or angry is a hallmark of rightwingers.

God, I'm sorry, this is such melodramatic bullshit. I'm just in a state tonight.

Not at all! Sorry if I came across as dismissive. It's more like, not sure I have it in me to keep on, you know?

I try to remember that unsustainable systems can't last, though they may go on far longer than anyone might've expected. People have come out the other side of horrible circumstances with wisdom and humanity intact. Will that be me?

This is where I cop to being a straight white cis guy and acknowledge I've been very fortunate to think life could even be close to what I wanted it to be. That I could have a life that wasn't lived under a constant looming threat.

It's mourning, really. Like when you genuinely can't believe someone is dead and you have to keep telling yourself they are just so it starts to sink in and you accept it. Life as I and any other non-fascist knew it or expected it to be is over.

I'm not trying to doom-wallow, I'm really not, because I don't think that's very helpful. I'm genuinely trying to come to terms with what life means for all of us now.

Like... It's just a matter of time before all of us are arrested or murdered. Isn't it? What kind of meaningful existance can anyone who's not a fascist expect to have now? Because this is the next 20 years at least, maybe much longer.

And even if there was an election, and even if they won, do they really think getting Mayor Pete in office will fix anything?

Are you going to blame the Democrats for running such a shitty candidate after not having a primary because they were all set to run a man in advanced cognitive decline?

Was at a Katell Keineg show a bunch of years ago, and Natalie Merchant was sitting a row ahead of me. I asked if she was Natalie Merchant and she tapped her nose.

It's not our decision as to whether a protest is peaceful or not. That's up to the cops. As you should be able to attest by now.

Someone called "honey badger" unironically using the phrase "media justice warrior." Did you fall through a wormhole in 2011?
