I just remember a time when social media didn’t seem to have so many political stuff
No, you remember when what you saw on social media wasn’t political. Now you’re older and pay attention to it.
Social media was political since day 1.
We don’t have the organ to sense pheromones, but we weren’t going to lose the ability to produce them first.
But also, it’s an armpit. A big slab of meat touching one of the hottest parts of your body. It’s going to trap heat which stimulates sweating.
The cause of Sophie’s APD diagnosis is unknown, but her audiologist believes the overuse of noise-cancelling headphones, which Sophie wears for up to five hours a day, could have a part to play.
So fucking stupid…
Kid grew up on a quiet farm in the countryside, then she moved to London and probably 100+ student plus lectures.
It’s not that noise cancelling headphones prevented her from developing normally, she developed in an environment like what we evolved to handle.
Then she got thrown into a cacophony of sound that is one of the planets largest/busiest cities…
And they act like she is the problem and not noise pollution?

Noise pollution is fucking a lot of us up, and people who grew up with it are used to it, but that doesn’t stop the negative consequences of it. Someone that never had to deal with it is obviously going to have what looks like a sudden onset of a condition, but the person is fine.
The environment is the problem.
He’d have to pass a background check for that.
So they give him a bullshit title and say that means he doesn’t need a clearance.
This is what we need…
"I fundamentally believe that our party is grounded in the values, principles, and aspirations of the working class. As chair of the DNC, that belief will guide my decisions and approach in the years ahead. In contrast, in only his first month in office, it’s become abundantly clear Donald Trump doesn’t give a damn about the kitchen-table issues that matter to most Americans,” Martin explained in the memo. “Trump and the billionaire advisors he has surrounded himself with don’t give a damn about what it takes for a working family to put food on the table and keep a roof above their heads – let alone make a better life for themselves and their loved ones.”
Martin wasn’t my first pick, but I’m still happy he got it, and looking forward to Dems getting back to the FDR stuff over the neoliberal bullshit.
We need to be the anti-establishment party again.
I really don’t understand how people think women are more emotional due to hormones…
Testorone is basically crack, and I think a lot of societal issues are due to aging powerful men going on it so they can feel 18 again when they’re 50.
The problem is 18 year old guys are fucking crazy because their testorone is so high.
Musk effectively has unlimited access in the government now
Factually untrue…
But that hasn’t stopped the media from saying stuff about what’s going on, so I guess it makes sense seeing it repeated on social media
It leaves out one of the most important factors, the media and their role in censoring and magnifying news to fit the political identities of their consumers. Had they been accurately reporting on Trump’s actions and results first-term, no human being in their right minds would have elected him a second time.
You realize the first ones to boost trump was Hillary and the DNC…
Right?
Like I shouldn’t assume people lived thru it, it was 9 years ago, you might not have been paying attention to politics then.

They knew people didn’t like Hillary and that nothing would change that.
So they found the worst person possible and talked him into running to make Hillary be the best choice. And still fucked it up.
Trump didn’t reshape shit.
When shit sucks, people go against the status quo.
Blame the dem party insiders who fixed the last three primaries to shove status quo candidates no one wanted down our throats. Practically while shouting “our else” in our faces the whole time. It worked once… When Trump was the incumbent so even Biden wasn’t the “status quo” candidate then trump was and he lost despite going against someone who couldn’t win a primary for 40 years
Then they honestly couldn’t figure out why they were losing the youth vote
Stop giving fascists credit for things the only other option keep fucking up.
The problem isn’t trump is some massive political force, it’s that people don’t have an option they actually want.
We haven’t run a good candidate for decades, neither party wants the election to be about how great their candidate is, just how shitty the other party is.
I get while Republicans do it, but the only explanation for Dems to do it is they’re playing for donations not votes, I just can’t believe they can blow thru a billion plus every four years and can’t do any better than this shit
Dems run national elections like a stepdad play Shoots and Ladders and desperately wanting the kids to like him, winning just isn’t even on the list of priorities.
Yeah, tornado can start, wreck shit up, and disappear in less than five minutes.
Especially back before cell phones there wasn’t another way besides loud ass sirens everywhere.
My hope is that my information is a solid counter to that crazy.
Well, objectively it’s wrong, especially if you’re talking about doing it on Twitter or Facebook.
I wonder what the options were
Shaggy defense:
It wasn’t me
It most likely was him. And the prosecution likely has solid evidence
It’s just they likely didn’t get that evidence thru legal means so it won’t be admissible.
Like, at first they said a fast food worker recognized him, then she said she didn’t. She said someone walked up to her. Told her it looked like the shooter that has a big reward, and left
That 100% smells like law enforcement needing a legal way to say he was found when they 100% knew it was him and where he was.
So you attack the evidence they can share with a jury. Which isn’t great.
You attack all the shitty things the cops did, like tazering him till he pissed his pants and then releasing a cell phone pic to taint the jury pool.
His family is loaded as fuck, they’re gonna be able to afford good lawyers, it’s very likely he’s not found guilty
Haven’t argued with many MAGAts have you?
Why would I?
They want an argument, they want to be “challenged” and to “fight the good fight”.
If rational people argue with them, it raises their group cohesion and they all circlejerk about it later.
If rational people do the rational thing and do t engage with them they still need those arguments. So instead of circle jerking with each other, they have to argue with each other. Which fractures their group.
Please be a rational person and stop being the punching bag of the right.
You’ll never change their minds with facts and logic. All you’re doing is reinforcing their beliefs
Lol …
I’ve never seen someone post a source showing they’re wrong…
Then saying “even that source is wrong, and I’m still right”.
Like, did you search for anything that agrees with you and then just give up but thought people would just up ote a source?
Nah.
That’s not how this shit works homie.
Luigi doesn’t have to prove his innocence, the prosecutor has to prove he’s guilty beyond reasonable doubt…
Like, you’re literally completey opposite of reality with your statement. So in a way you couldn’t be more wrong
Lil Bobby Kennedy fired them, not trump.
Agencies have independence, it’s dangerous to act like trump has powers as president that he just flat out doesn’t.
Vote blue top to bottom.
Did the last four years fix anything?
It’s not enough to have a D by their name, they need to actually be capable and willing to fight fascism.
The absence of evil just isn’t good enough anymore.
If the only two choice involve one being “status quo” then “status quo” is going to keep losing. You can shout that it should win till your face turns blue, but that’s obviously not working.
Why the fuck is there so much opposition to just running a good candidate Dem voters agree with?
When it caught fire a couple years ago they had to pay people to sort thru soggy half burnt pieces of paper trying to find any identifiable markings to rebuild records. It wasn’t archived anywhere except those pieces of paper.
So large parts of it up to 1980s maybe even 90s is just gone already.

Never was big on the “zine” name and it’s weird they’re bringing it back…
But it’s basically just a short format online version of a magazine that they’re printing out like a magazine?
A24 does weird shit, it’s a production company that buys up a bunch of weird indie movies and releases them. Like 90% bangers
Good thing we spent the 4 years between trump terms with a young, motivated go-getter who checks notes his in a closet for four years and was less seen/heard than any other president.
Moderates are not equipped to fight fascism, we can’t keep rotating between the two because the fascists will break more than a Neoliberal would ever want to fix.
Neither actually wants to fix shit, just keep their wealthy donors happy
