She/Her Opinionated woman (lady is often a bit of a stretch), FFXIV and CP77 are top of my games list right now, otherwise I’m all about my lovely wife, kids, fireball coworkers, good food and friends. Oh! Love indoor and outdoor cycling, too!

Don't make me tap the sign again Stop assuming you know someones ethnicity by what they look like. Stop gatekeeping culture because someone "doesn't look enough" like "what they are supposed to"

Can’t endorse this enough. Get out there. Get people you know to reach out. Maybe even them know it matters enough to you to influence your vote as well as those you know and love?

A new article in MSM with factual info on Covid? YES! What Repeat COVID Infections Do to Your Body, According to Science | SELF www.self.com/story/covid-... 1st rec: wear a mask. 👏👏👏 [ This might even be the best MSM article on #Covid to share this month ]

self.comYes, It’s Still Really Worth Avoiding COVID—Even If You’ve Already Had It a Few TimesThis virus behaves differently in our bodies than cold and flu—and can do major long-term damage.

Totally expected from him and yet I still held a glimmer of hope his handlers would keep it down before the general. Then again he’s getting desperate and is being pretty mask off with the George Wallace contingent.

Trump just posted a new extremely racist ad to Truth Social. I know the Willie Horton ad from 1988 is held up as the most racist political ad of the past 50 years, but I really think Trump's ads are so extreme they make the Horton ad look tame.

Add another to the top the list of “well that’s utterly unsurprising and yet incredibly disappointing at the same time” events from this year.

Manufacturing and distributing hundreds of exploding pagers to target hezbollah—if that’s how it was done—is some real off the wall david simon meets ian fleming shit

Because, who DOESN’T want to go back to those days? Weren’t they the most fun? Ever been pregnant? Blood pressure? Balding? Overweight? Need Testosterone supplements? Have a womb at all?

There’s a solution we should all get behind. Busybodies got all day to bother women seeking healthcare? Go protect those kids you pretend to give a shit about.

Okay my fellow bsky-ers, ites? Skeeters? Whatever, getting sidetracked My partner said something about a transgender Olympic wrestler this year I can’t find anything about. Anybody hear anything? I know about the BS about the boxer, but… Anyone have an idea?

Did we ever used to call former US presidents by the title as if they were still POTUS? ie “President Carter” in their post presidential life? I thought it always used to refer to their time as president and otherwise we’d say “former president XYZ”

finally saw the cilp of JD Vance going off about the problems of irish immigration in the 19th century and i have to say i did not expect to hear some bill the butcher-ass nativism in 2024

“you have to wonder if these people are capable of counting to 10 on their fingers.” Fantastic description of these bigots.

Kamala Harris has always been black, and Donald Trump has always been a liar. Like the original iteration, Trump’s neobirtherism tells a racist story about what’s wrong with America www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I’m all for cracking down on algorithmic manipulations of us all, but this ain’t it, Chief. This is an easy Trojan horse to get in and stifle necessary safety valves for, in particular nowadays, LGBTQ+ youth (and adults!) so those who are our betters can conversion therapy the kids. Call/email etc

To be fair, they don’t want gay (other than multiple girls for their titillation), bi, NB, or non-white except for as some kind or other of exploitable resource. They really don’t want most people. Funny that. The modern day rehash of eugenics and the Klan stepping into he limelight. Again.

I don’t want this to come off negative AT ALL, and I know many will use the same as a negative. 4 a successful woman w/o kids, she has SERIOUS pack leading Momala energy. I’m here 4 it. She’s not my first choice bc I’m at heart a crazy prog. But she’s the best shot we all got right now.

The small hand checks out, but as much as it looks like it he was likely just excited with a bunch of big strong men he loves to talk about hugging him so lovingly, right?
