What's funny is they're not mad because they didn't get the halftime show. They're mad because they got it and they're not happy

Can anyone explain the purpose of a government that doesn't take care of its people? That feels like it's supposed to be the BASE purpose but maybe I'm wrong

This is, at least, plausible

At least he knows 🙂‍↕️ #edited #fuckMusk

I was mocked today for bringing up New England in an argument about snowfall. The person was claiming Iowa's snowfall was significant (pfft) and i was dumb for trying to bring up New England as a comparison since it's in the UK. You will NEVER convince me everybody's opinion matters

Zuckerberg's argument is they sometimes make mistakes with moderation so they just shouldn't try. What a spineless piece of shit. #fuckMeta

Musk is going to keep fucking around in global politics and end up in a very precarious situation. The consequences of hubris ALWAYS come due #stupidgames #bloatedego #dangerousgames

Most people have no understanding of what venture has become in Silicon Valley and how far it has walked into the abyss of not just authoritarianism, but openly fascism, nor do they understand what their plan is, they are planning to remake the world by “disrupting” key pillars of free society.

I know people say the US will never switch to metric because it's too difficult. But if you take a look at consumer products, it's already happening. Like, does anybody in the US really not know what a 2L looks like?? Also, also: the inch is literally defined as 25.4 mm/2.54 cm!! It's SO dumb

I used to like him when i was younger, but time and time again he demonstrates just a total lack of social awareness. Years of slandering people like #ElijahMcClain #SeanBell #TamirRice #BreonnaTaylor but. all of a sudden this puts us on the path to hell? Grt fucked dude.

I love how it went from "Teump has nothing to do with #Project2025 so stop bringing it up!" to "So what? What's wrong with Project 2025?" And they claim to be patriots 🙄

MAGA people are sincerely some of the vilest fucking people I've had the displeasure to encounter and I don't really know how I'm going to make it through the next four years with my sanity intact. I've worked so hard to become a calmer person. And ik I'm going to lose that. I can already feel it.

I think one of the worst parts of the outcome of #Election2024 is knowing Joe Rogan's influence will only continue to grow, rather than hit a peak. And that's a tragedy

Always has been.

It's liiiiiiiit

Over the next two years, the left in this country needs to learn how to effectively wage a culture war. We have facts on our side in most instances. But we fail to weaponize it. We also fail to illicit the same kind of strong emotional reaction in our ill the right seems to have mastered in theirs.

Says a lot about this culture that "hold hands and sing kumbaya" has become an idiom to call someone naïve or idealistic, when the song itself is a literal cry for divine intervention in the face of the increasing certainty that nothing else will bring about the change the singer desperately needs.
