I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Humanity is getting a very quick refresher course in how evil, dangerous psychopaths can simultaneously be utterly pathetic losers. There is no contradiction!

It's not an either/or. One of the absolute best and most beautiful people I know absolutely revels in the knowledge that it's a genderfluid girlthing. And I remind it of that fact every chance I get because affirming people in who they are is beautiful.

Why, in the name of all that is sacred, is Steam's account recovery system the most dogshit and frustrating [blurry captcha/retrieval codes that don't arrive/not dictating whether it's pw or username that's incorrect] collection of nonsense that's ever been? Asking for a me

Trump just signed an executive order banning vote by mail and ordering the defunding of any state that does not follow through with it as well as engage in massive voter roll purges. There won't be free and fair elections ever again. If you're waiting for 2026, it's already too late.
