If you're scared of protesting or a general strike because you could lose your job, healthcare, and housing, or even go to jail, now you understand why the US has no universal healthcare or housing and no guaranteed parental leave, but DOES have the largest prison and police system on planet Earth.
I have truly made converting people away from TurboTax and onto FreeTaxUSA like a key goal in life. it is ENRAGING that we are forced to live like this because of one company lobbying to forcibly monetize something that other people’s governments just do for them
We showed them Army of Me
I need recommendations for more weird 90s videos for the youth
Making my children stay up late so I can make them watch classic music videos (smells like teen spirit, sabotage, running up that hill)
He's right, you know.
More than one person pitched it to me as “lesbians solving a murder with a greyhound”
I drank 99 Bananas once and it was out of a bottle stored in someone’s car trunk outside of a concert when I was underage, which is exactly how it should be drank. Once you’re old enough to buy liquor you can buy something better.
After that I took my meds and asked a friend to go to Homegoods with me. Two hours of touching stuff in Homegoods helped (as did the meds).
I told my husband that everything I was feeling today was “angry at being spoken to” and “angry at plans made or unmade” and he referred to it as “brain full of knives”, so I’ll be using that phrase a lot.
The youth need to learn the hard wya like we did: Midori, Aftershock, 99 Bananas
Seattle called it Spodie, and if it’s done right the liquor should taste like fruit and the fruit should taste like god turning their back on you.
My school district is being forced to lay off several educators and a librarian because of a $500,000 budget gap, or roughly the amount spent on the war while I was typing this post.
I spent seven hours at ECCC and am yet again asking people to not stop dead in the middle of an aisle to check their phone. Just take like two steps to the side, please.
"Trump Says 'I Guess' Americans Should Worry About Iran Retaliating on U.S. Soil: 'Like I Said, Some People Will Die'

We have mergansers who overnight in the pond next door and we just call them “the fancy ducks”. They sound so weird.
We’re carrying out the dumbest war under the supervision of two D-list TV personalities bragging about our war crimes and all the fast food CEOs are competing over who can take the biggest bites of their burgers.
Some are calling it the most American moment in history.
My granddad, a hard working auto mechanic.
I’ve seen enough. Not about the election. Just generally.
Obama is the only president to date born when there were 50 states
I blew through Akwaeke Emezi’s Son of the Morning in two days and it was so good. Standalone romantasy with high stakes and adult characters who are old enough to rent a car.
My teen is learning about the Russian revolution in class and sadly all I know about Russia is either Dyatlov Pass or deep undercover spy lore.
Most of the ones I’ve visited are almost exclusively trade pb cartoon covers of the last five years and some special edition Austens. BRING ME THE AVON GREATS YOU COWARDS.
I’ve been watching one local romance bookstore join in talking shit about another one online and MADAM your historical romance section was Sense and Sensibility and The Great Gatsby when I stopped in. What I want from a store is variety and a deep collection, not 15 different cricuted water cups.
Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape, according to a joint investigation by the Texas Newsroom and the California Newsroom. In Texas, abortion is banned in nearly all circumstances, including rape and incest.
the phrase “more than a dozen pregnant children” ringing in my ears www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Joyce Carol Oates • @JoyceCarolOates X.com Twitter is the place for nonentities classifying entities colossal as those redwoods you, squatting below, can't see the tops of. • Brad R. Torgersen • @BradRTorgersen • 14h Beatles are a first-rate second-rate band. There. I said it. And I am not sorry.

It sucks to care and yet we persist in caring
Okay if fucking Trump outlasts Bruce Campbell I'm fighting god barefoot in a Waffle House parking lot.
