Lauren R. If I can shoot rabbits, then I can shoot fascists. Hater of rhetorical questions, conditional whiteness, white supremacy, & omnicide. I sure do love "Crooked Officer" by Geto Boys.

They really didn't enjoy briefly feeling like prey & didn't want us thinking we could ever be anything more than prey. This is the part when they clap their hands & laugh about payback being a bitch.

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

Frankly, I can't believe the story I have about him isn't explicitly sexual, it's sleazy in a power-dynamics way. It didn't go so well for him, I'm very happy to have sabotaged that film. Sue Mengers would have been very proud of the whole thing.

I’ve had a good amount of meetings in Hollywood. I’ve had one extremely creepy one I nearly stormed out of and refused to follow up on. Guess whose company it was with (long prior to accusations.)

Calling these people on the phone & fucking yelling at them is so much fun. You want to call me? I'm not picking up unless I like you. Placing calls to dipshits? I'm nice as hell to their staff. Sweet as pecan pie. Lava for their voicemails. Absolute ruination & condemnation. A lovely hobby.

Rep. Tom Suozzi(D-NY), getting raked over the coals for his vote for more ICE funding, says in a campaign email that he didn’t understand what he was doing

I'm a pedestrian in a city where everybody outwardly hates each other, if I'm out at night, there's a bright lantern on my back & one on my cane. Motor vehicle operators do not need to feign politeness. They need to actually be predictable.

Seriously, though, if you ever want to see me predictably lose the entirety of my ish in public, try to “wave” a car through against the established rules of traffic. I despise chaotic piety. You’ll kill people just so you can look “nice”.

I call SCE & yell at them about it a few times a week. Had a week of obsession with optimizing useage in my home. Yelled enough to get a technician out, he said "there is nothing better you could do, this is really creative, can you do my house?" (I am an ex-lighting technician) - STILL FUCKED $$

Apparently our electricity bills are going through the roof and this is partly related to data centers that hog huge amounts of electricity to generate information. I, for one, feel hopping mad about this. The companies that are using the data centers should bear the cost. time.com/7355839/why-...

A lot of people really believe that the systems of domination they're invested in are the natural order of things.

even as a teenager in the 2000s, I always found it fascinatingly stupid when supposedly-smart analysts claimed they just couldn't understand why people in Iraq and Afghanistan were resisting the U.S. occupation. is "people don't like it when you violently invade them" really all that mysterious

One of the other hostile things about parts of Florida that I will never make peace with: they don't have sidewalks. It's this country's Australia-state. You got confederate flags, invasive species of ex-pet tegus, pythons, frogs, & gaboon vipers. Lot of rapists, racists, & Teslas. Fuck them.

When the temps get cool and I have to walk to an errand somewhere down Magazine street a ways, I find myself wanting to have a sweatshirt made that says "Don't you have sidewalks where you live?". Why do groups of 8 or 10 just stop & loiter in the middle of the sidewalk and not move aside? #nolasky
