“The idea that a civilization might destroy itself is both ludicrous and likely.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
We are pathetically inadequate at long-term planning, idiotically primitive in our destructive urges and pathologically incapable of simply getting along."
- Brian Cox
Look, I hate guns. I'm Canadian and the avg one of us has never even seen a gun right there in front of us.
That said, every serious leftist needs firearm training and regular practice, especially if you're in the States. And *especially* if you're not whte. None of this will end by asking nicely.
That'll happen.
Sorry to get political again on the silly Nintendo fangirl account but hey gang: when do we start really worrying about this shit. Are we there yet? Feels like we are there.

Mark Ruffalo has a message for you:
@markruffalo.bsky.social
Yes and yes
Also, what are you doing here with that shit?
Nonsense.
75 m people decided to put that man in the position to do so, and millions more decided we should have a congress that mostly supports him. Blame them
Yes. But we knew this.
HOLY SHIT.
A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.
Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?
You people.
After we get rid of the trumps, this admin and their supporters.
No, they really don't deal with facts very often.
Or, maybe they couldn't.
But, also, we already knew about this back then.
Blah, blah blah. We elect thousands of representatives, and we are the ones choosing the rich, corrupt individuals.
We are a representative democracy, and if you don't think voting on those representatives isn't meaningful, then you wouldn't be complaining right now.
BECAUSE THEY HAVE DESHAUN WATSON!
For one, there *are* limitations of the federal government. And, two, democrats are the only ones who support Trans people and trans rights.
Asking them to stop "arming and protecting a genocide" was a reasonable request. But the only reasonable option was to support Harris in the election.
Why? Because trump would also arm and protect genocide while also doing so much harm everywhere else.
And again, that isn't what happened. People chose not to elect enough dems to prevent it.
Again, this is not accurate.
No. Always needed to pay for cable.
Doocy asked a reasonable question?
Every dem i hear opposes this.
This really isn't true.
Of course, this isn't what actually happened.
What actually happened was that Italy just played better.
Our representatives are a reflection of us. We would have different behaviors from politicians if we elected politicians.
The difference in the US is that we have to form our coalitions before the election rather than after.
In reality, the voting public anywhere is divided. And we can split into as many sub groups as we want. At the end of the day, different groups need to work together to achieve anything.
I spent 4 months trying to answer a simple question: has this book been translated into my language?
Turns out no one tracks this. Not ISBN registries. Not Amazon. Not Google. Not libraries.
So I built a tool that crosses four databases to piece it together.
