republicans and donald trump exist to scrape as much money out of us as possible. they want us poor and powerless

Round the Block

the last few times iran has accepted a ceasefire, the US and israel have taken the opportunity to restock their weapons and then surprise attack iran again. "there's zero point in engaging in diplomacy with us any more" is what that strategy teaches

being an artist is just decades of going "ugh I wish I knew how to draw" over and over again until you die

happy mario day

Ask not for whom the turn tables...

It tables for thee.

Have said this before in other forms, but will reiterate it here: if you're doing long-form writing of any sort, reading the words aloud into a microphone is a completely unparalleled cheat code. It's free, easy, and so effective it feels like it shouldn't be allowed. I do it in a few stages...

Always just enough democrats to crush anything thats good. Its a scam folks.

for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc

Panel from an old Rocko's Modern Life internet safety comic urging readers to never ever EVER give away personal information online.

Sorry Discord, Rocko said I shouldn't.

Who can reply: anyone, nobody, people who can be normal about it.

trying out a new feature, lmk if it works

Not to sound like Old Man Genwunner over here, but truly the obligation to format the pokedex the same exact way for every gen has given us so many useless, redundant 'mons. Just once they could shake things up with a dark/psychic/fighting starter set or something, but ah, the formula, THE FORMULA!

The new pokemon starters are boring and dumb, but at least the dog is cute even though we have a ton of fire dogs already. Have fun with bootleg Rowlet and gay water Treeko I guess.
... can we just stop doing new starters, guys? We have a lot.

once again reminding everyone to funnel your emotions into organizing and building solidarity in your community and not pointless doomscrolling

James 5:1-6 slaps

So it's ok to start a war illegally against a nation of 92 million, for whom you have "no sympathy" as long as the purpose is clear?

The Big Dem line that Trump is a demented fascist domestically while simultaneously agreeing his foreign policy decisions just isn't gonna cut it anymore.

it’s really annoying that the ‘defund the police’ conversation in the mainstream is only ever “should we have more or less police officers?” and not the “police officers shouldn’t be armed with riot gear and tanks and also can kill people” conversation

I keep hearing that the Epstein files are so big if we held everyone accountable everything would collapse. And no it wouldn’t. These rich guys don’t do any actual work. They aren’t actually important or useful they are just rich.

"Nazis were just regular people" is not a statement meant to evoke empathy or to excuse their crimes. It is a statement of warning.

The capacity to be part of and perpetrate atrocities is not limited to "monsters," it is wholly human. It is what we must always be aware of.

One last thing I forgot in my anti-Newsom/VBNMW rants-- Trump being the 2028 R nominee is literally illegal. It's forbidden by the Constitution. Any candidate that normalizes his bid for a 3rd term (even if they say they hate it) isn't worth their weight in sand

Middle-class Americans are selling their plasma to make ends meet Last year, people in the U.S. made an estimated $4.7 billion selling their plasma. Donation centers are popping up in middle-class neighborhoods, including suburban strip malls and college towns.

My god do we need UBI

“Researchers have found that when a new plasma center opens in a neighborhood, foot traffic at local grocery stores increases, interest in payday loans declines and crime goes down, an indication of the way money from plasma props up households’ finances for necessities.“

I do think there’s a certain type of Democrat that realizes it’s possible we are dealing with a perfect storm where almost any Democrat will win, and are terrified we might nominate radical candidates who will actually engage in needed change instead of status quo corporate centrist bullshit.
