The election result says less about Trump and more about the American people.

RIP America

After today, I'm going to start judging people who are still active on Twitter much harsher.



I'm sorry folks, but at this point everyone knows what it is. Musk is Goebbels, and Twitter is his megaphone. Him purchasing the site is a not small part of the foundation of what happened today, it's not a small part of the root of the bad things that are going to happen in the next few years.



I'm not buying any excuse anymore: being active in there makes one of the main tools of the fascists more effective. I know it. You know it. If you are there, please, close your account today.

Someone said β€œgood morning” to me at the bus stop and before thinking about it I said β€œno it’s not. It is objectively *not* a good morning.”

I regretted this instantly all the bus stop regulars already think I’m a strange little nerd. Now they will think (know?) I’m a weirdly politically obsessed strange little nerd.

But instead of the look πŸ‘€ of disapproval, hilariously everyone agreed.

β€œBad morning!”
β€œBAD morning!”

No, boosting the previous post about passports was helpful.
And if, right now, you think this is somehow snark, you need to wake the fuck up. I'm LGBT and totally fucking serious about getting out of the country.

I have one, and it'll be good through the fall of democratic society in the country.

There's this weird Venn diagram of conservative, religious and homesteading (the community-rejecting weird racist survivalist type) obsession with sewing and crafts, so a lot of the time when you look up any kind of sewing tutorial or sewing product review, there's always the possibility that the seemingly nice and polite white woman doing the video is a Super Karen.

So every time you click on a video title and the presenter is a black woman? Such a good and warm fuzzy flood of relief!

My boyfriend read the phrase "He stopped her mouth with a kiss" in something and decided it was very romantic and started kissing me in the middle of speaking. He refuses to stop, as he considers it loving and romantic. I'm breaking up with him tonight.

Haven't been online much, been saving my energy for work. But yesterday I found out I'm going to England for a week, and I'm flipping between panic and shutdown.
Street view of Google Maps, to see where I'll be going (hotel and work). Getting familiar with sights, building, landmarks. Planning, planning, planning, even though I know it won't go 100% to plan. Researching the topics I'll be expected to cover, and the history of the program contract.

Belief systems that are based on an incomplete understanding of observed reality are fine with me. It's at least aiming for truth. Belief systems that refute observed reality are damaging. Any time they tell you to have faith instead of believing what you see, they lose me.

Atheist, Antitheist, and Antireligionist

I am an atheist (lack belief in or rejection of god$).

I am an anti-theist (rejection of or see theism as harmful, ie. belief in god$ or the concepts themselves as harmful).

I am an anti-religionist (rejection of or see religion as harmful, ie. all religion or religious philosophy is harmful including ones without gods).

This is not full definitions just quick examples.

The new well-deserved VP Harris cover of TIME. β€” For those wondering, the sound you hear is a toddler temper tantrum at Mar-a-Lago.

You ever think about how words are just organized mouth noises?

One of Germany’s largest employers announces to boycott #Tesla because of Elon Musk’s behaviour:

"Elon Musk makes no secret of his support for Donald Trump. Trump has repeatedly described climate change as a hoax - this stance is in stark contrast to Tesla's mission to contribute to environmental protection through the production of electric cars

For this reason, ROSSMANN will no longer purchase Tesla vehicles for its fleet in the future."
