I'm not enthusiastic about supernatural beliefs, especially monotheism, especially Christianity.

I'm a settler and a product of the worst, most destructive blight ever to appear on Earth: Western Civilization

Polish ultra-conservatives would like hotel owners to have the right to refuse to rent a room with one double bed to unmarried people.
you might say it's funny. for me, it's not funny anymore. treating these unhinged Christian militants like harmless jesters is careless.
as you can see, they don't attack only us, pesky queers, here. they're coming for everyone.

la_sombra,

@reginasbread Agreed, unhinged christian militants are not harmless jesters, elsewhere any more than in Poland. At all.

They certainly are ridiculous, but not in a funny way. They are not harmless.

@lowqualityfacts I dunno, I suspect this of being a mere exxageration rather than a true Low Quality Fact. 😂

@BethanyBlack I also checked the heft and balance of the snow brush I bought last week.

la_sombra,

@themeowcate @BethanyBlack Take "snow" out of that and you've got it exactly right.

Not that I really think my snow brush would help, but it is a real concern.

la_sombra,

@themeowcate @BethanyBlack I assume that's a joke, but that might be a good idea.

Watched The Shining in the theater. You guys may not know this, but movies are often better if you watch them in a theater from start to finish instead of bits and pieces on TV out of order with commercial breaks.

la_sombra,

@billyjoebowers Either way would be better than the way I did watch it: With a man who was very impressed with himself speaking up to make sure I understood every scene.

la_sombra,

@billyjoebowers No, but now I wonder if I wouldn't have actually fared quite well with a jury if I had.

One thing I hate is when I’m going through life and I experience a situation

@donni I know, right? Every time a real problem comes up it has to do with that, every single time!

Be careful who you quickly label a terrorist. I only count times actually charged & no catch/release cop kidnappings - that would bring number to over 50.

I was labeled a terrorist 4 times since 1992.
2 times for protesting against government ecocide. Govt also called me a terrorist for showing up outside Israel embassy several years ago with a sign saying: Stop the Occupation! Stop Killing Palestinians! Stop Genocide of Palestinians!

I don't support terrorists. I don't support Israel govt.

la_sombra,

@msquebanh Thank you for coming. Very glad you're here!

Mutual assured destruction is clearly the motivation for car buying these days.

Ultimately, we're all going to have cars that fire missiles.

la_sombra,

@davidho Aft torpedoes would be quite sufficient. Anything that's in front of me, I can slow down for it, stop for it, or go around it.

Tailgaters can be a real menace though.

"Jeeves lugged my purple socks out of the drawer as if he were a vegetarian fishing a caterpillar out of his salad."
The Inimitable Jeeves

English comic novelist, short-story writer, lyricist, and playwright Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse was born in 1881. He is best known as the creator of Jeeves, the supreme “gentleman’s gentleman.” He wrote more than 90 books and more than 20 film scripts and collaborated on more than 30 plays and musical comedies.

We done fucked up if "killing civilians of any nationality is bad" is a controversial thing to say.

la_sombra,

@renwillis @azforeman NO. Killing civilians is wrong. Period.

It is NOT "All lives matter" to say that.

la_sombra,

@renwillis @azforeman Ok, so we agree, killing civilians is wrong? Good. Debate resolved. Ciao!

Apparently I got reported today for using the tag and not being blind. I was told by multiple people on Mastodon that if I didn't have the energy to do alt text for every image I could use this tag and someone would do it for me.

Instead I got reported to my instance owner. You all need to make up your fucking minds what is acceptable and what isn't if you want people to stay on mastodon. As it stands, I don't feel comfortable posting images anymore because if I don't have the energy to write alt text then I get shamed, if I used I get reported

You people make it so tiring that for someone like me with ADHD and Executive Dysfunction it is much easier to just not use Mastodon to post any images!!!!

I'd also like to touch on how people always shame others with "invisible" illnesses. I cannot escape it. Just because I am sighted does not mean I am not disabled in some ways. But people can't see ADHD and executive dysfunction, so I just get their personal diagnosis of 'LAZY'.

I can tell why artists aren't flocking here in droves.

I don't know what I am going to do going forward but I feel pretty fucking uncomfortable posting any images to Mastodon now lest I be shamed or reported or fediblocked because someone didn't like whatever about my posts.

Thanks for that.

Boosts highly encouraged I think everyone should see this.

la_sombra,

@Konaburd Sorry to hear you got that shit. Unfortunately, alt text is kind of a bandwagon for people who want to be conspicuously pious and lecture others.

la_sombra,

@zdl @Konaburd More than once I've considered dropping the use of alt text altogether and telling the scolds to go fuck themselves, but then I realized it's not actual blind people who are causing this so that would be taking it out on the wrong people.

la_sombra,

@zdl @Konaburd Hear, hear! 👍💯

Today is the first day since like the middle of August where I feel I’m actually back in my routine, which still includes some adventure and new challenges, but is basically everything to me as an AuDHD creative.

I am praying that the universe leaves me alone for at least a couple months to be healthy and functional and get some of my work done. 🙏 No more isolating crises, just productive feedback loops– jinx, knock wood, no whammy, etc.

la_sombra,

@ryanhoulihan I'm sorry for your loss. Are you ok?

I apologize for passive aggressively gaslighting you all into believing that I am Snoop Dogg. They're right, it's time for me to come clean.

The truth is that I am actually Sandra Bullock. I am deeply sorry for deceiving everyone earlier today. I just wanted you all to like me.

@lowqualityfacts Sandra!!! 💖💖💖
