Hey y'all, I'm carrying over from the other social media site where I made a big personal post this time of year about some of my struggles.
If you're just here for goofs, movie and game stuff... no need to read further, for everyone else...
Sometimes writing is my only release, and sometimes reading is my only nourishment.
The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

5 years of Netflix US profit: $15.1 Billion
5 years of Netflix exec pay: $652M
5 years of taxes paid by Netflix: $236M
In a 5-year span after Trump's tax cuts, Netflix paid top execs 3x what it paid in federal income tax.

I expect our team to be posting here more actively in the coming months.
After waking up yesterday and seeing censored hashtags and JD Vance looking like a bag of hot dogs on my suggested follows, I had to get off of anything Meta. Never posted there anyhow, so we'll see how this goes.
Love you all, hold your people close. We'll get through this. together.
