I’ve been mostly away for a few days, but I see that the random stranger who was mad at me for posting a photo of a subject they disapproved of (buildings) is still mad at me.

When we throw up our hands and say none of it matters, we're doing the fascists’ work for them. They don't need to hide their corruption if they can convince us it's pointless to look. They don't need to silence truth-tellers if we've already decided truth is meaningless.

Robert Malone, one of the quacks that RFK just put in charge of your vaccines, spent 2021 telling people that:
1. Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin were effective for COVID
2. COVID vaccines were dangerous and made infection worse

Both of these claims were bullshit. These claims killed people I cared for. I had many patients come in with severe COVID who had avoided vaccination because of Malone’s bullshit, and then took ineffective drugs instead of getting the care they needed. Fuck that guy.

This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches? Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation. Reporter: Are you worried about the others? Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis. Reporter: “Why do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?” Greta Thunberg: “Because of racism.”

🤷🏿‍♂️ Y'all are still trying to play the game where you pretend that Trump's immigration policies are unpopular *with his base*.

The "They didn't vote for this!" stans really want to believe that.

But the Quinnipiac poll shows that 87% of Republicans approve of the way he is handling immigration.🤦🏿‍♂️

To put into perspective how astronomically high 87% is...

In 2012, 87% of Black men voted for Obama. Republicans like the way immigration is "being handled" as much as Black men liked Obama.

🤔I swear, I don't think some of y'all even talk to Trump voters before you claim that they don't like this.

A chart showing the answer to the question "16. Do you approve or disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling - immigration issues?" It shows that only 43% of people approve, but 87% of Republicans approve. Only 4% of Democrats approve.

Im a pretty okay writer. I post to my blog once every 45 days (give or take). I don’t do much promotion. I limit my SEO to technical stuff. I’m not on corporate social media.

Yet, I get a respectable amount of traffic each month. “From Jason” is one of the most popular things I’ve ever made. And it’s literally just text on a static site.

There is a thirst for writing; a desire for humanity in our art. Keep writing. Keep sharing.

One realizes that this is just someone spamming an obnoxious opinion for engagement, and yet, this also gives me an excuse to post a picture of Krissy, who if she's meant to appear 15 years older because she let her gray grow in, looks pretty damn spectacular for 70.

Here's a better idea: Women in your 50s (or any age!), wear your hair in whatever way gives you joy and don't let anyone try to shame you for however you choose to present yourself. You deserve to be your authentic self.

"Choosing to opt-out of LGBTQ+ discussions does not make one anti-LGBTQ+."

Yes, it fucking does. You should know better.

They claim not to be against LBGTQ+ people, but they want to avoid ever seeing that term in the Fediverse?

Give me a break. You are not fooling anyone.

This is precisely why so many people still have a problem with #Fosstodon.

Y'all seem committed to not learning any lessons.
