I don't believe in Hell, but if I did I would die happy knowing there was a special seating section for anyone currently railing against "the sin of empathy," and every one of those seats is made with hot rusty barbs

I'm relatively good at writing and coding and, while my arm is getting steadily better, typing is still a fucking nightmare. I know this will pass quite soon and I can't compare it to an actual disability, but not being able to do anything other than binge watch REACHER blows. REACHER is fun though.

I love when people say "There! I said it!" after making a statement, because that way you know what they just said was a load of horseshit. My dude, you aren't a brave teller of harsh truths. You're just a moron. There, I said it.

Cis people: it's your DUTY to stand up for trans people, because they're not listening to us. This WILL escalate until being trans in public is an actual crime. ID not matching birth certificate is already legally "fraud" in Florida. They're ratcheting it up to see what the public will tolerate.

Hot take(?): I think if there’s one thing I definitely don’t need to see any more of on this app, it’s people using the current political nightmare we’re in to talk about parallels to Star Wars. Please either watch something for adults or just don’t post. There’s real things happening.

Given that the sole qualification for a Trump nomination appears to be being remarkably unqualified for that position, I am going to throw my hat in the ring. Mister President, I am incredibly unqualified for many many many jobs. Sign me up.

I bang on about this to my arts and culture journalism class to what I'm sure is a tedious degree, but I think it's key to distinguishing interesting criticism from, well, everything else on the internet. "This is not the thing I wanted; I would like to send it back" is a customer service complaint.

The thing about language is, you kinda need it in order to name things. e.g."camps" that are designed to "concentrate" people... Be on the look out for an influx of euphemisms in upcoming weeks. "Detention Centers," etc. Take note of who uses these, and who is willing to call a spade a spade!
