Yall voted for this

what the FUCK. this is horrible, i never knew about this

The thing about federal bureaucracy is that all the institutional knowledge that makes them work invisibly in such as making sure your milk doesn't contain formaldehyde, is stored inside people who would make twice as much money in another job.

gasp.

sooooo maybe in my sick fugue state i ordered cheaper-but-still-expensive boot cut Kendrick jeans. will post if i get them and they look good, just in case it was all a literal fever dream.

Remembered that I wrote about how awful Woodrow Wilson's historic segregationist purge of Black workers from federal government jobs was last year.... www.thedailybeast.com/woodrow-wils...

since weird Harris diacussions are going on, i’ll just say this: how someone feels about a candidate and who they vote for are two different things. Remember that being a president is not an inherently good thing. You WILL be a war criminal, you WILL do heinous things in office

i had this happen once, shit was scary af

last year taught me how many of y’all are willing to sacrifice Black people in your actual practiced politics. Especially since some of y’all seem to conveniently forget that Black people are immigrants, too.

i would take more joy from this, but people are already suffering and dying due to their fucking around. the fact that they’re even able to be there to complain puts them in a better spot than those that have already been hurt by their choices. this isn’t enough to qualify as “finding out” for me

i had a drink the other day, a funky type of Hot Toddy, that was sweet, sour, and umami. it was a DELICIOUS combination, it’s latched onto my brain.

a reminder to freeze your credit. those n*zi nerds have all our info, snd it won’t take long before that shit’s either dumped onto the dark web or on some blockchain for all to see

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

and this is why hearing “they can’t do that it’s illegal” isn’t comforting. laws are only worth how they are enforced, and when 47 was 45, he placed a LOT of judges

as long as people listen to him and do what he says, that doesn’t matter. He already knows he has no formal authority, and so does everyone else stepping down from their jobs.

forgiveness is only good when there is still a focus on harm reduction. Forgiving them or giving them grace would be doing the exact opposite. Not forgiving them is a protective instinct, not a sign of lack of character.

*me looking at my 401k*

and people think i’m lying when i say people just did not want to vote for a Black woman. vote counting shenanigans aside, a lot of y’alls “left leaning” friends lied to you about who they voted for. that people thought she would be the same as the current shit we’re in says a lot (that is racist).

and the quality difference is stark. i once did a mini experiment, and went to the same Foodtown in 3 different neighborhoods: well-off White, gentrifying, and lower-income Black. The difference was…interesting, I’ll say that.

as someone that has worked gov-adjacent in the past: at this point, the allure of the “stable government job” is gone. Via contracting, I’ve seen things go pear-shaped more often than not after each election, during my entire working career. It’s not just a one-off thing, it’s a 4 year coin flip.

what in the Ender’s Game…?

so many people looked at the potential for this to happen, for this kind of disruptive and irreparable harm to be done to Black people, and shrugged. don’t care if they thought it wouldn’t happen, thought it was inevitable anyways, or thought it was worth the cost. Fuck them for ever risking this.

me scrolling and checking to see if the allosexuals okay and stopped posting “sexy” vegetables

i get why that lady gaga song is such an earworm for me, it’s nostalgia “abra-cadabra abracadaaaaaaabraaaaaa”

*logs into this app* *sees The Vegetables* good night everybody

back in the day, C hit just right. whoppers used to be a solid burger with the fake flame broiled flavor. Plus it was a huge burger for the money. But B has stood the test of time, and has always been good, if you had the money for it. That big mac sauce is the goat to this day.

the plane is upside down. the PLANE is upside DOWN.

please do not fly rn, PLEASE
