That's how people react when they find me on other platforms 🧑. Thanks for your love, folks πŸ™πŸ½

Stop hating on lazy people. We didn't even do anything.

14th Amendment, Section 3 bars anyone from holding office who β€œengaged in insurrection" against the U.S.

This isn't some obscure provision. A New Mexico judge used it against an insurrectionist county commissioner.

Why shouldn't it also apply to Trump?

Y'all are chasing working artists away from this place by harping on how "sad" and "pathetic" it is for them to hope for a large follower count here.

It's not about attention. It's about their bottom line. More followers means more commissions, more customers in their online shops, more direct exposure to people with hiring power. It's honestly really cruel to keep acting like they want adulation when really they just want to pay rent.

They have ample reason to mourn what they built.

@quirk We went all out with home automation, which was great (and still is, almost always) but then the internet went down for several hours, and we found out nothing in the house works without internet. No lights, no TV, no music. We could entertain ourselves by watching the microwave rotate food.

19 December 1941 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Frank Emanuel Polak, was born in Amsterdam.

In February 1944 he was deported to Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

BREAKING: The January 6 Committee has officially made four CRIMINAL referrals to the Dept of Justice against Donald J. Trump. They are:

1β€”Obstruction of an official proceeding
2β€”Conspiracy to defraud the United States of America
3β€”Conspiracy to make a false statement (fake electors)
4β€”Incite, assist, or aid an Insurrection

Justice delayed is justice denied. DOJβ€”You’re up! Don’t let America down!

@CatsOfYore OK, you've ruined a perfectly good shame spiral. Now what will I do with my afternoon?

@ozwobbly It only means he succeeded if we (generic "we") continue to engage in the birdsite. As more people leave, media's incentive to remain dwindles. Eventually even they will figure out they're speaking to an empty conference room.

@callmejake I saw a true meme:
Mormon missionaries are the Catholic school girls of gay porn. That horrifies me more than a little, as a recovering Mormon who married a guy who was a missionary (and is also a recovering Mormon.)

@rbreich While we're helping Ukraine defeat invading Russian military, I'm not going to get too worked up about the military budget. Particularly not when it's overshadowed by the $10T tax cut the GQP gave to the wealthiest 1% of the country, while their wealth is growing exponentially.
Taxes are going up on the poor and middle class, while they dropped into the basement for the oligarchs.

@ScottSoCal @georgetakei Would hate to be the new CEO who has to try to actually make the company work while Musk is constantly forcing them to do every ridiculous thing that pops into his mind.

This is your year non-trans folks. This is the year

to be the one to call out grandma for misgendering your non-binary cousin,

to call out how fucked up your uncles transphobic jokes are, or

to tell your mom that her excuses for deadnaming someone aren’t good enough.

It’s time to make this your problem. How are you going to stand up for trans people this holiday?

@anellawrites @LibertyForward1 @stopgopfox@libretooth.gr
The first part, that you apparently missed? The part that said "chances are"? That's saying it's statistically probable, based on Idaho demographics, that her past behavior was consistent with the majority - in Idaho's case, the overwhelming majority. I did not say "I know for a fact".
