They're not pokemon. I can throw a rock from the corner of a street in the middle of the historically ultra-liberal west village and hit a 47 voter at this point.

I don't need to hear about another person who voted and then lost their job, their healthcare, their whole ass family member (to deportation). The people who need to see it ain't gonna read it.

The Times is doing pieces on people coming home after being pardoned for that attempted coup (cause let's stop giving them cute names like "J6'ers" and remember what they did) and re-acclimating to life. Fck those ppl. They're criminals and anarchists.

I'm still waiting on those slice of life stories about Black people when we're *not* mourning, fighting, or protesting. When we're just kicking it and being in community like Jim and Betty Sue and 'nem at the all-American diner these outlets thing hold some mystery of America.

I'm annoyed, my bad.

Am dealing with it by turning my money and attention to smaller outlets still doing real journalism, including the Black press. Some excellent slice of life coverage at the Minneapolis Spokesman-Recorder: https://spokesman-recorder.com/

Oh, and they’re here on Bluesky. Stories about good, idealistic, hardworking people - like a warm bath for my mind. @spokesman-recorder

And now this WW who worked for federal forestry services and voted for 47 bc she thought he'd give her free IVF and now ain't got no job who I saw all over the TL the other week is on CNN, bc she's young, pretty, college educated, and (presumably) has some sense. So she's now of course fascinating 🙄

I mean, how simple-minded are you to believe that despite someone saying they are going to do some that will negatively affect you, once they are in a position to do said negative thing, they are going to personally make an exception for you because you supported them?

Like, huh? Wtf?!

Is it still a Cletus Safari when it's a cute, educated, white woman?

I bet she has a GoFundMe setup before the CNN cameras popped her in focus. The glimpses I get of TV news all remind me of 80s evangelist ‘news’ segments.

College grad. Good grades. So not duped or misinformed. Ryleigh knew exactly what she was voting for.

OMFG, I saw her being talked about on Reddit. The universal sentiment there was, “Fk this hoe.”

I'm still not watching CNN nor other msm, so I missed this story. Not sorry, the summary sounds atrocious enough.

She ain't got a lick of sense believing that ivf tale without asking "how"

I saw the article about the girl in Michigan who voted for him "for free IVF" and lost her job at the U.S. Forest Service. I am SO TIRED OF THIS NONSENSE! At 24 years old, that woman made a conscious decision to vote for a convicted felon and rapist! I'm sick of seeing these lies about anything else

She was on CNN TAHDAY
