- Comment on What happened to the Dem Party in America? It's kind of like once Kamala lost, which they deserved, and lost congress. They ran like a dog with its tail between its legs instead of fighting? 2 days ago:
Were you not watching the past 20 years? If not, you missed the warnings. Pelosi gave an 8 hour filibuster speech just in 2018. Should they have been grabbing guns and throwing fists? The aggressor and instigator has always been the right-wing. If you don’t see it, you tuned in too late or bought into their propaganda. Or, like the left, you believe the anti-american propaganda that positions the Dems as controlled opposition.

This is not a serious publication.
- Comment on reuters.com 2 days ago:
Of course she’s mentally ill. She survived rape by her brother. The family is vile scum for using that argument to silence her.
- Comment on Y'all ever have intrusive thoughts about accidentally dropping stuff in storm drains? (particulary when you have your phone out) And like if that happens, wtf is someone supposed to do? 4 days ago:
Have you ever walked over a cattle guard? It’s creepy as fuck.
- Comment on Is Vladimir Putin a good and professional leader? 5 days ago:
Putin was in his 30s or so when the Soviet Union dissolved. He’s an opportunist who saw the profit potential in a huge fire sale of the country’s economy. His wealth is roughly estimated to be $200 billion, all of it stolen from the people in various rackets since coming to power. The Russian people saw their country “lose” to the USA and, demoralized, they were disempowered to do anything about it.
Today the USA parallels this structure, with conservatives leading the defeatist, fatalist belief that we’ve “lost” to China, a narrative Trump fuels every chance he gets as it provides a shield from what he’s really doing. Every single crazy thing he does is a distraction from the financial racket being run by his family, who faded from the news cycle as soon as his second term began.

Thanks for the reminder, nomorehappinessforlife
- Comment on What happens if someone refuses to work in a socialist economy? 1 week ago:
Your question employs a false right-wing premise. When your needs are taken care of, you won’t want to be high all day. The desire to work or contribute to a greater cause is endemic to our species.

Let’s hope OP grows up.

- Comment on Why do some people with college degrees and an education, still act so fucking stupid? 2 weeks ago:
If you identify educated people as drastically different from you, perhaps they are just trying to fit in when they’re around you.
- Comment on When if ever did "Throw Money at The Problem:" actually work? Instead of being about 75 percent useless? 2 weeks ago:
Ok great. So give them upward mobility. That’s going to cost money.
- Comment on When if ever did "Throw Money at The Problem:" actually work? Instead of being about 75 percent useless? 2 weeks ago:
poor community
So the problem is still poverty.

A great big fuck you to Mr. S, who gave me 0 points every time I forgot it.
- Comment on Trans migrant gets just 6 months behind bars in rape of 14-year-old boy inside NYC bodega bathroom 3 weeks ago:
What a true journalistic dilemma for the NY Post! They couldn’t overtly call her a man while also arguing for a longer sentence for sex crimes.
- Comment on Anon contemplates AI 3 weeks ago:
Is that what you thought the goal was? You’ll know we’re there when AI gets you to suck it off.
- Comment on Are all rich peoples clothes designer? 4 weeks ago:
Some rich people, sure. Not all of them. Some will buy their bargain bulk pack of underwear at Macy’s or Dillard’s.
- Comment on Anon has anxiety 4 weeks ago:
Or OP is neurodivergent and stimulants help their brain. As with all greentexts, autism should probably be the first suspect.
- Comment on Karim Diané on playing Star Trek’s first gay Klingon 5 weeks ago:
It’s just a phrase. You’ve heard it. To finish it off: Homophobia only exists in 1 species (which, unfortunately for my example, would likely be Klingons).
- Comment on Karim Diané on playing Star Trek’s first gay Klingon 5 weeks ago:
It’s already more than possible in your mind.
- Comment on Karim Diané on playing Star Trek’s first gay Klingon 5 weeks ago:
Klingons appear humanoid. Therefore humans see themselves in them regardless of what the writers intend. Therefore we have to shove representation in as a sort of innoculation against the exact mental gymnastics you’re performing.
- Comment on Do rich people get addicted to drugs? 5 weeks ago:
Rich folks despise their drug addict children and cut them off out of shame (the real spoiler is that these parents create the addiction). So the one who gets revenge should be the black sheep of the family who tried their best to keep the addict around.
- Comment on Karim Diané on playing Star Trek’s first gay Klingon 5 weeks ago:
Because they’re humanoids. We see ourselves in them. Therefore representation matters.
Homosexuality has been observed in over 5,000,000 mammaloid species, including targs.
- Comment on The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself 1 month ago:
we are supposed to be better than this
Faulty logic; there are no ethics requirements for fediverse account creation.
- Comment on I Failed the Autism Test | Janet McNamara | Stand Up Comedy [10:37] 1 month ago:
The tags on my shirts dont bother me. Because I buy shirts without tags on them. And that’s how you know I’m not autistic.
Amazing.
- Comment on Living Human Brain Cells Play DOOM on a CL1 1 month ago:
I installed Doom on the RGB lights of 4 RAM sticks and played in 4.8P.
I installed Doom on a Samsung refrigerator so I could play it with ads.
I installed Doom on Meta smart glasses to make it asshole-accessible.
I installed Doom on a smart TV so Big Tech could watch me play.
I installed Doom on my Tesla so my fiery death machine had a fiery death machine.
- Comment on Gulf of America/Mexico 1 month ago:
Every piece of land or sea you’ve ever known has been known by another name in the past. It’s just that nobody respects the person or the process used to enact this change so it’s doubtful it will stick beyond his death.
- Comment on Moltbook was peak AI theater 1 month ago:
So how was this different from the current version of reddit?
- Comment on Anon shoots his shot 1 month ago:
Once again: tell them you’re a greenposter; they’ll infer the autism as the cause of the gaffe.
- Comment on In the US we have signs that say No Shirt No Shoes No service. When did this become a norm? Also if I am wearing a shirt and shoes but no pants can I still enter? 1 month ago:
This confused my literal autistic brain so much growing up in the 90s. I always wondered why they didn’t include shorts/pants. Beach culture originated these signs. Bottoms aren’t included because women would enter wearing bikini bottoms and they explicitly did not have a problem with that.

I actually am planning on making a website soon. I’ll have to keep Wix in mind.
