"The merit of humanity is the mind. All else can be done cheaper, better, or faster by unthinking beasts or unfeeling automata. Our weakness is the desire to relinquish the burden of the mind. To do so is the same as embracing death. Think more, think harder, no matter what." -The Wizard Austazufio

Did the left divide the party or did the Party divide itself by becoming indistinguishable from the Republicans on issues like queer and trans rights, not aiding in multiple genocides and not becoming border hawks

Psychological horror comedy where a married couple is a left-leaning feminist activist man married to a gonzo conservative woman, and the only reason they're married is because she bullied him into it. He wants to complain and get a divorce, but he distrusts anyone who agrees with him.

Can you imagine being a fish in the middle of the Pacific, worried about other fish and shit, and then TRASH ISLAND floats up with World-Ending energy? The trash barges onto the scene like the final boss in Fromsoftare's take on "Fish," except for you it's "Real Life." Damn.

Anyone who knows how to design museums: please sketch up a concept for the "Donald Trump Memorial Museum of National Embarrassments," with interactive features that make very clear all the things this administration has destroyed because they found it embarrassing. We'll build it after he passes.

Big thing to remember about the revolution is that it would be much faster and more effective if it Was televised, and its lack of visibility is a weakness. While discretion is sometimes needed, normalization and proliferation is much more powerful for supporting a social movement.

"The person I looked up to on the television isn't participating in the revolution?!" -people who thought the revolution would be televised

When the left wing does in-fighting, it's all "Bluesky is an echo chamber!" When the right wing does in-fighting, it's like. "Who do we get to murder because someone got murdered?"

Thank God there's a points system to deliver dopamine straight to my brain when I leave reviews on Google! Maybe if I leave more reviews to earn a higher score on the leaderboard, MY reviews will be more visible, and my voice will finally carry weight in society. Will this boost me on Google+?

Thank God we have cell phones so we can forget how to talk to the people in the same room with us. Long silences can be extended indefinitely by a simple "one second let me finish this" that leaves people isolated from one another while they inhabit a shared space! Amazing!
