It's truly disheartening how after less than 20 years of being an adult I've already lost my ability to pursue a creative endeavor just for the sake of doing it. Everything has to be about skill building or filling a niche or finding a market, even when I'm trying to chill out and ignore that shit.

I used to just draw things, make silly videos, play with legos, write lyrics, noodle on a guitar... and it didn't matter that there wasn't a goal. I didn't even care if the result sucked (it often did), but the joy of starting and finishing things just for me is something I desperately want back.

It's really irritating to me that actual news publications are treating the $5000 T**** promised as a real thing and not the obviously fake desperate bribe it is.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

True! Don’t let anyone tell you it’s impossible: they said that to Hollywood, too. Everything we want has already been fought for and won in similar industries, and the bosses are hoping we forget that! We won’t!!!

game workers should make residuals like movies and tv shows. You can't make bank on a game selling billions of units and then fire everyone.

The Constitution of the United States, Fourteenth Amendment, Section 4: “. . .neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.” Well, look at that!!

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Watching Mr Robot when it first aired was a journey from "Hell yeah wipe it all clean!" to "Oh dear, unintended consequences. Perhaps we need to be more careful about saving the world." Watching the world as it exists today has me looped back around to "Hell yeah wipe it all clean!"

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it could collect roughly $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it could collect $26. Wondering why the Trump regime has cut 25,000 IRS employees in the last year? It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

He is insane. And this is an open declaration of intended genocide. If any other world leader said this, there would be sanctions and an arrest warrant, not just for him, but for his whole regime.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

I said this in replies elsewhere, but I want to say it loudly here. Anything other than a fullthroated affirmation of birthright citizenship in this country by SCOTUS is an act of treason. It is grounds for immediate impeachment. It is a violation of every oath they have made.

Trump and Hegseth are making statements that legal experts say constitute war crimes. On live television. Without apology.

I am so angry at this I can barely process it! Plain clothes men (allegedly ICE), refusing to identify themselves, kidnap a mother in front of her child AFTER they passed security… The era of the American Gestapo needs to end, and the era of the American Nuremberg trials needs to begin.

Fetterman is tirelessly working to make having a stroke contagious.

Even though Markwayne Mullin has vowed to champion the same mass deportation agenda as Kristi Noem, Fetterman just voted to advance Mullin's nomination as DHS secretary. Fetterman could have blocked Mullin's nomination. Instead, this supposedly Democratic senator decided to back the regime.

In case you weren't angry enough about everything else, it's worth reminding that this whole thing with the tariffs was just wealth redistribution. We all paid higher prices for goods, now the companies that sold them are going to get a check for the costs they passed on to us. 🔥🔪🪓

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

Quote from Trump just minutes ago: "The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places.... The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting." In modern history, there's never been a bigger threat to our Constitution and our way of life than and his enablers.
