All the things that used to be inside me now they're all outside. So, I can see all of the things inside you. But the inside of me is empty. Don't look at me. Now you tell me about yourself.

The Press: “DOGE sends SSA into a Death-Spiral”. Oh shit! Then you read the article and it’s an off record quote about what might happen if things continue. So eager for a scoop they inoculate people against outrage when it actually happens. On purpose? Not my place to say.

i miss the early internet. people were like “you gotta see this dude. this cat sure is long.” and they were right. it was really long. it never shoulda gotten any more complicated than that.

I got blocked by a prominent “progressive” article writer because I pointed out his tone-deaf post about a linen/wool suit on the day the Dow lost 4% was in poor taste. If you think that’s cool wait til you see what I think about stuff you need a brain to think about. #jamelle

Jamelle Bouie, man of the people, posting about linen and wool on the day our retirements took a 4% hit. Remember who people are when the chips are down.

Jamelle is out here, replies off, with huge Bolshevik energy on the day the workers’ retirements took a 4% hit.

People are more complicated than your archetype of them, and that includes people less intelligent than you. If you don’t understand this you’re dumber than you think.

Imagine thinking the people who voted this way are all evil or even considered or understood those things whether they were obvious to you or not. Imagine projecting the things you think will get likes as reasons for others behavior. Solidarity for working people cannot be won through blame.

Remember when they summed up the civil rights movement with a couple paragraphs about marches, buses, and MLK having a dream? Remember when they didn’t teach you a thing about the labor movement? Go look it up. Look it up and tell me censorship is always obvious. I guarantee you’ll be surprised.

so we just had AI-designed tariffs, in case anyone missed that

Depriving working class people of the ability to pay for food and basic services is as violent as a firing squad and I want you to remember that.

What will big business do now that _____ is forcing them to raise prices like they’ve been doing every opportunity they get for the entire time you’ve been alive?
