It’s just because Trump called Jones “Low IQ”
- Comment on Why is the US so into Israel? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think people get that that history of the US is what we’re seeing in Israel now. What’s happening to the people of the middle east happened first to the people of turtle island. It’s the continuation of the same project of domination and land grabs.

Looks like she’s trying to push her head into that chop saw it’s so weird.

This is what people mean when they say “touch grass”

It might be shopped. Take a picture at each stage, then arrange them all on a background.
- Comment on It's already running 3 weeks ago:
It’s almost the opposite of this?

That’s fucking rough. Can’t they like give you anti-horny pills or something? Shit
- Comment on Is there a chance America one day will elect a Progressive? Or will we keep going the elder dipshit route? 3 weeks ago:
Liberals here just enable the fascists. I think OP was asking if we’d get something that isn’t just fascist enablement, if we’d ever have a situation where we broke out of this cycle you’re referring to with effective liberal policy instead of half-measures that just give the fascists an excuse to call liberals incompetent.
(I don’t think so)

I agree with most of this but I would like to point to “living on stolen land” as the primary source of this “terminal infection”, and it’s a social phenomenon you can witness not just here but any time that people feel justified in stealing someone else’s home throughout history.
- Comment on Are there any ways to reverse AI brainrot and force myself to do any creative endeavor, even if inspiration didn't strike? 4 weeks ago:
To paraphrase a line: art doesn’t come from you, it comes through you. AI brainrot comes from isolation and regurgitation of tired tropes. Exist in society. Be among others, let their art wash through you and your experiences, and your inspiration will take shape.

I haven’t figured it all out, obviously, and don’t know exactly the right way to talk about this stuff, but I know this framing is wrong, because when viewed from a certain angle, one could look at any medication for chronic illness this way. I think addiction is a symptom of broader systemic illness, in the same way as body weight correlates inversely to elevation (and hence positively with both toxin accumulation and poverty), or how other diseases corelate with the stress we’re put through.

Kinda suits it, with the title, right?

What the fuck is the matter with you? The man threatens to wipe a country off the map and can do it and you say “chicken”!?
- Comment on How will you celebrate? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah you have a point I don’t think I’d come at someone IRL like that over wanting to celebrate Trump’s death. I just…don’t feel any victory in that moment and already hear centrists gearing up for another right wing democrat president taking everyone’s attention.
- Comment on How will you celebrate? 4 weeks ago:
I guess take a long nap to get ready for all you fucking libs to go back to brunch and forget there’s still an empire to fight.
- Comment on How do trains save fuel when they literally park on the tracks and block multiple intersections, with over a hundred vehicles steady burning gas all around waiting for the train to fucking move? 5 weeks ago:
Like yeah it’s bad. The people who run the train company don’t give a fuck about you or the workers who are being held responsible for way more train than is safe for longer than is safe for them to be working. Oh and they always have to be on call 24/7.
It’s not the train’s fault, it’s capitalism. Take the trains back, let the workers run them safely and efficiently, and this won’t happen.

One rifle per family.

Lol wtf
- Comment on The Three Stooges are back on TV 1 month ago:
Trump’s a lot older than Vance. Maybe he was 6’3" once and has settled enough to bring him down to 6’1" but still says his full height.
- Comment on Security lines at JFK airport, NYC 1 month ago:
What? Why? What changed?

Also if you try to spend the night in a station in America a guy with a gun will kindly see you back into the cold
- Comment on The Gang Solves Climate Change 1 month ago:
EVs will not solve climate change. Only a low-enenrgy use scenario is sustainable. We have so much more to do than just drive a different kind of car and people are not organizing this sort of effort enough.
- Comment on Shoutout to yall 1 month ago:
My thoughts are sort of like inverse broken windows. Make it have vibes that make the gentrifiers not wanna be around.
- Comment on Shoutout to yall 1 month ago:
- That’s not a very convincing argument.
- …within the context of what I said that would be a compliment? Thanks, I guess.
- Comment on Shoutout to yall 1 month ago:
Littering in certain spaces is a counter-gentrification force that reminds people of the waste in our society. Change my mind

They don’t claim it on their taxes, they claim it in marketing
- Comment on Gottem 2 months ago:
In double-blind studies, the test administrators are made unaware which sample is real vs. placebo
- Comment on Is ironing clothes significantly less common now? 2 months ago:
I think it has to do with the materials clothes are made out of typically being more wrinkle resistant these days. No one ever liked ironing so as people were developing new textiles they had an eye towards that.
- Comment on Is it theoretically possible Trump and ICE are killing a very large number of immigrants (like 25% of those detained) and no one knows? 2 months ago:
Actually this is pretty good evidence they haven’t started doing that yet. There would be leaks.
- Comment on Is it theoretically possible Trump and ICE are killing a very large number of immigrants (like 25% of those detained) and no one knows? 2 months ago:
I’m not sure that your second point is still a constant, though this is just an opinion and I’m open to discussion on this. They seem to have solved the problem of people not being up to mass killings, through desensitization through social media (I’m thinking of telegram groups specifically). There have been a lot of cases shown recently of people taking outright glee in their and others’ grotesque murders, en masse.
