  • You don’t have to imagine it. You will get to live it if you don’t do one specific thing. Show up at the polls and vote blue.

    It won’t save the world. It will buy four years. If that’s not good enough do what you should have done four years ago, keep these discussions alive. Make Kamala regret ever wanting to be president by forcing her to make the right decisions. Also, since she never won a presidential primary force the Dems to have an open primary in 2027.

    I know I can’t make any of this happen. WE have to make it happen.



  • The hold outs for these sites are so fucking dumb. They act like social media is somehow an important part of their existence when just 10, 20 years ago it was an emerging technology. These early iterations of social media are toxic as fuck. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc. They don’t deserve your patronage and are taking your goodwill and turning it into social decay.

    10-20 years and you people can’t give it up for something better. There is no argument. You don’t owe them loyalty. They aren’t innovating. They have contributed to the rise of authoritarianism.

    Yeesh.


  • In my mind, it’s really just entitlement. Something along the lines of, “well, I don’t know the answer and why should I have to know if someone else is going to figure it out.”

    In a tired way, I understand it. Everyday I just want some of my time back for myself. If I’m always the one who has to work through all the problems for my ideas just to be ignored then I’m just going to be perpetually frustrated. So if my ideas are half baked and the solutions i barf up aren’t to your liking, well, figure it out yourself.

    Not to say that I am this way. I don’t get frustrated when my ideas are ignored. I do get frustrated, though, when others eat up half baked ideas knowing they are just that.

    Sorry, if what I’ve wrote so far has gotten a bit confusing. I’ll wrap it up and say, it’s entitlement. People don’t want to think for themselves because it’s time consuming. They think the world should order itself in a way that fulfills their needs with minimal effort on their part. Except, to understand how the world would be ordered for that to be reality, they can’t comprehend because no one has really figured that one out. So they fall back on god and gods an easy out because, duh, he’s god.
