Y'all, I hate to poo-poo on organized action, but not buying anything for *one day* isn't going to do anything.😫 Where are my committed folk who are willing to not buy anything for a week? I do it all the time. I'm gonna suggest y'all try to get comfortable with not buying things for extended time.

Too many people on here seem to believe there are exactly two kinds of Americans: ardent politically-obsessed Bluesky users, and frothing MAGA cultists. There are a LOT of people in this country who *just don’t pay a lot of attention one way or another*. And we absolutely can reach them.

In my bathroom-stall sized apartment in the Trump Super Tower I whisper “Cisgender” into the toilet. In the distance, sirens. Dozens of Cybertrucks careen out of control towards my hovel, driven by porn-fed AI and Space-X Police fueled by Elon branded ketamine. The vehicles explode. Today, I escape.

I don’t want to laugh while the world burns but this is absolutely insane shit that should not happen in a country with any legitimate decorum. Our government is an immature clown show of octogenarians who shit themselves and nazis who no longer hide who they are & Sarah McBride, trans court jester

Rep. Mary Miller introduces Rep. Sarah McBride as “The Gentleman from Delaware, Mr. McBride.” Performative cruelty.

We only ever called things the Dark Ages because we had no information from the ruling class to base our history on, but the people always persevered. Places and people don’t crumble, governments and systems do.

By a longshot, the most common mistake people who are into politics make - from seven-figure strategists to randos offering Takes online - is overestimating how much attention normal people pay to politics, how much they know, and how deeply they think about it. *Vastly* overestimating.

I am overwhelmed by garbage. I can’t find the capacity to care about… random fictional fandoms or celebrity chefs recipes while the world is actively burning down around me. I was feeling like I was living in a different world than everyone else until I realized that I actually am.

The most frustrating thing for me about our cyberpunk dystopia is that we didn’t even get the cyberpunk aesthetic. We out here breathing toxic air & losing our job to robots in some fucking wrangler jeans I’m SICK

My new favorite thing about this website is every time I post about something, some keyword gets me a single new follower. Today it was Billionaire and Bartender. The last time it was Prepper. It’s always only tangentially related to the topic I’m actually writing about.

We laugh when people think of trans as a contagion but I was a shitty, alcoholic bartender and a regular came in and just was suddenly a woman and I was like “I want that for me,” and then a coworker came out to me like five months later and now she’s prettier than I could ever imagine being.

I can’t help but feel that everything we always do is wrong. As I get older the feeling keeps getting worse. It’s not Trump, not our Billionaires, not just our corporate nightmare society. Those are just symptoms. It’s all wrong, all broken, and I feel dumb for not buying into it, like most others.

I hope I’m wrong. I hope my fears are unsubstantiated. I hope that I’m just becoming more and more of a shut-in prepper for no real reason at all. I hope that food prices aren’t going to skyrocket, that the medication I need to survive isn’t going to be made illegal for people like me. I hope.
