I just had a dude cut me off by barreling through three lanes of traffic with no blinker and then brake check me through the right turn in an intersection only to go ten miles per hour under the speed limit on the next street and hog the left turn lane.

Fuck cars. Fuck unsafe drivers.

I prefer high security jail, and trials to make Nuremberg blush.

I mean, before that, for sure, too. And not just Sam.

Republicans ~~who support this~~ are just racists.

At this point, if you're still hanging around with the fascists, you've become a fascist.

We can only hope this helps kill the fad. I know companies won't be taking any realistic lesson from this, but at least this can force them to abandon a lot of this crap.

I find more comfort in the real and tangible human experience. Most of us are caring and social creatures if we let ourselves be.

I think that framework encourages people to become compassionate and kind because they know it's all we have.

At its best, religion adds a layer of coping which is not based in any reality. At its worst, it sets people on a path for alienation and seeing themselves and/or others as less than human (depending on the neuroses and likely trauma).

Dealing with no easy answers throughout your life can bring you to many existential questions and even depression at times but, as long as you have the strength/support/self care to keep and adapt your sense of self, you will be stronger for that introspection.

I choose growth.

*Racism whipped up to distract us from class warfare.

Honestly you could say that about any of the centuries involving the US.

By no means am I a Biden stan, but the inflation reduction act was a massive step in the right direction coming off of the previous presidency. One which was immediately reversed after 2024.

How about, and hear me out here... How about, we jettison Ryan Cohen into the sun.

Genuinely, two out of the three GameStops near me just closed for good. How is that the sign of a company that could manage a hostile takeover of a major industry player from the dotcom era?

Edit: apostrophe on mobile
