Like @StillIRise1963, at some point, I became self-aware that I could be Bad Person, and made a conscious choice to try to not be.

Like @AnarchoNinaWrites, J can get into the headspace of the Bad People. It’s a hidden superpower.

Now, I just need to figure out who will pay me large sums of money for these…skills.

The new "response" to "bear or man?" is so stupid, I can't even figure out what these guys are thinking, or what "point" they think they're making. (And why a tree?! 🤣)

Like, are they really trying to equate sharing their feelings with getting mauled by a bear? Or with what women are justifiably afraid men might do to them in the woods?

"Would you rather open up to a woman or a tree?" says way more about the men themselves than women, trees, or anything else. #ManVsBear #ManOrBear #BearOrMan

What is the raison d'etre of raisins?

Okay, but is it an oak, or a maple, or a weeping willow?

Like, exactly what kind of tree are we talking about here? 🤨

It’s clear journalism’s present day mission is both to NOT find out anything important and if they do find out, NOT TO TELL YOU.

I am once again asking everyone who refers to a “nickle” to understand that it’s spelled e-l, though I get why you’d think that..

“Shaving a yak”

“Fighting a marshmallow wall”

“Dancing in quicksand”

Surely there are more idioms to express the same sentiment…

It's inconceivable that you haven't spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder.

There are some people who don't get this reference.

Be documentarian

Write your observations, your thoughts, and feelings. Your written legacy is what future historians will use to interpret what happened into the past. Writing is the evil twin of thinking.

Blogs are modern-day #pamphleteering

Some people with a bias for institutional authority and deference to elite power condescend to the idea of blogs or citizen #journalism. My hypothesis: part of the reason is the word ‘blog’ sounds funny and people feel self-conscious saying it out loud. #American exceptionalism is the ability to memory-hole first-principles, history, and the meaning of words better than the rest than the rest of the world.

“ 'I’m the king of a lost world! I’m the king and I will destroy you!' Javier Milei bellowed into the microphone on Wednesday night as Argentina’s showman president took to the stage for his first stadium gig since his election last year.”

Modi is the Indian version of Trump.

AMLO is the Mexican version of Trump.

Netanyahu is the Israeli version of Trump.

Khameini is the Iranian version of Trump.

Milei is the Argentinian version of Trump.

Putin is the Russian version of Trump.

It’s not just the U.S., it’s a #global phenomenon.

It’s not just here, it’s everywhere.

There are multiple, overlapping Venn diagram issues happening everywhere, all at once.

The #BodyPolitic of each of those countries is not monolithic.

Wonder how white women fascist voters will feel when their husbands and sons have to go to war right here at home.🤔
