Concerned father, husband, and citizen. Better than I was, not as great as I can be. Don’t let politics consume your life. Find joy that you can hold on to.

I almost died from the sheer weight of my own anxiety. This is a world that is broken and I cannot fix, not in my state. I’ve turned inward out of necessity.

So like, what’s the punishment for admitting you are a puppet to a thing that’s not an appointed or elected official and your cabinet position is as flimsy as paper? What recourse is there for this discovery? #noem #miller #yougottabefuckingkiddingme #maga #democrat #republican #congress

My biggest fear as a father is not who my son chooses to love, but that I will fail to impart enough love, courage, and wisdom to keep him from becoming part of the current Conservative Party. Terrifies me to no end.

Feels really weird coming back to social media when you take long breaks. Life is so… uncomplicated when you’re not seeing the shit show that is US politics in 2-300 character nuggets. #unfuckAmerica

Prediction: At 2pm today, a clearly deceased Shitler will be marionetted into the Oval Office. The Couch Commander will place a hand on its back and then the mouth will begin to move claiming health issues and that CC is the new president.

The lack of legal action taken by Shitler against people claiming he’s on this or that list is probably more telling than anything else. He won’t risk opening himself up for deposition because of discovery.

There's a three minute gap in the Epstein security tape. If you don't think anything significant can happen in 3 minutes, you've probably forgotten how some of your kids got here.

Now that the more “moderate” MAGA are waking up to the truth of Shitler, how can we, not embrace them, but hesitantly welcome them back to reality? We, as a nation, cannot afford more years of division. What’s the way forward?

There is, without doubt, a fire burning in more Americans now than in previous years, thanks in part to this bungling administration. I fear those best suited to capitalize on this are still standing back and using strongly worded letters instead of taking action. In other words, letting us down.

I purchased a used copy of both the US Constitution and The Federalist Papers because I honestly can’t trust anything printed after 2016 when it involves American history. Just seems like things have been “changed”. #conspiracynotheory

Fucking wild that Epstein would kill himself right before they determine there’s no client list or evidence and he’d be acquitted of all charges and released from prison with a heartfelt apology by the administration.

Thanks to Biden’s Infrastructure Bill, I’m a month away from having gigabit internet in my backwoods hovel. I can’t imagine anything equivalent happening in the foreseeable future.

“Don’t crowd the pan” “Make sure not to crowd the pan” “Be careful, it’s easy to crowd the pan” How about you write a recipe with the exact amount of meat that won’t crowd the pan? /s

In today’s episode of “Art of the Deal”, Shitler had to put a stay on his own tariffs to prevent American automakers and farmers from going belly up. Lesson 247: Create a problem then remove the problem and claim victory for your brain dead cult.

Proud to join, or actually continue, my boycott of Target. Between boycotting Target and Amazon, I’m saving a lot of money.

Prediction: US pulls out of NATO and creates a new agreement with Russia, North Korea, Hungary, and China. China refuses and slides into all the manufacturing and farming holes created by USA’s regression from the world stage.

I’m not saying you should express the same sentiment as that brave Ukrainian woman from three years ago, but it’d be awfully funny if you started mailing packets of sunflower seeds to your GOP congresspeople.

Unpopular opinion amongst my peers, but Harris, Walz, Obama, and Biden don’t owe us shit. If they want to sit quietly as private citizens (except Walz) and enjoy their rest, they have every right to.

When asked today why I’m not taking to the streets to protest what’s happening in America, I really couldn’t explain it. But it finally hit me. Unlike my neighbors who voted for Shitler, my household is stable in all forms of turbulence. No matter how expensive it gets, we can afford it.

I can assist my extended family if they need any financial help. We’re in good health, we’ve divorced ourselves from any MAGA friends and family. We can truly sit back during this whole FAFO reckoning and be comfortable (relatively speaking). They made their bed, they can fucking lie in it.

I don’t know… if I quit someplace publicly and my coworkers applauded, I’d be pretty ashamed. I wonder if Gaetz is capable of feeling anything akin to shame? Probably not.

2025 FACTS 🟦 first square number since 1936, last until 2116 🟦 first product of two two-digit squares since 1764, last until 2401 🟦 product of two different square pairs: 81 x 25 and 225 x 9. (So was 1764.) 🟦 only two prime factors: 3 and 5. The last year to consist of just 3s & 5s was 1875.

Had a friend visit the other day and just for a moment, I realized we’re both adults. All I saw was the kid I first met in kindergarten up until he said his goodbyes and left for the drive home. As he turned to leave, there was an almost 40 year old man, a stranger with my friend’s name.

I wasn’t always a twitching pile of anxiety and depression but the gods favored me with an inability to let shit go so I talk to strangers on the internet and have an unhealthy obsession with coffee, Dungeons and Dragons, and I read The Hobbit once a year. #trophyhusband

For the love of whatever you hold dear, take up an artistic endeavor. Paint, write, play music, build, or whatever, but please please please find an outlet for all the emotions you’re going to feel for the next 4+ years. You can’t hold that shit inside without causing irreparable damage.

Posted elsewhere: time to start an edible garden. There are plenty of resources online and it’s one less thing Shitler’s regime can control. At this point, the most American thing you can do is deny them your dollar.

JD Vance being MIA is one of the most bothersome bits about this transition. (Yes I know he’s surfaced occasionally, but he’s far less active than I thought he’d be and it freaks me out)

Does anyone have any idea what entails running for political office? Thinking about running in WV for 2026 and beyond. Just trying to find resources from people who have dipped their toe in.
