Yeah fuck you pope.

I look forward to it passing with DNC-whipped votes. Fuck off Schumer and Fetterman.

Oh fun, I look forward to American gun insanity getting mixed into the Catholicism.

TERFs love the patriarchy, they aren’t feminist at all.

Stainless Steel Rat is an excellent shoutout.

The Scarlett and Brown series is about outlaws on the run in a slave society, has similar bursts of violence, deeply scarred main characters, and somewhat snide narrator.

I read Ann Leckie’s series that starts with Ancillary Justice around the same time and it tickled a lot of the same places in my head as Murderbot, in that it’s about a construct forced into violence that then escapes to move in the human world with its own agenda. Very different in tone, pacing, and scope though.

He’s a typical sexist alt-right babytoughboyfluffer.

All those screenshots don’t get processed for free.

Dynamic libraries are also time hogs

“Evangelical”, when I was a kid, meant “racist who is mega devoted to the Bible and goes to church twice a week, and maybe doesn’t apply enough critical thinking to what the preacher says.” They’d know Bible quotes, ask themselves what Jesus would do, and although I completely disagreed with them and fled the state I lived in ASAP, they were coming from a sincere place.

Evangelical", today, is purely a statement of political alignment with MAGA. Most don’t even go to church. They’re literally willing to worship a golden idol.

Religion is a tool for exploitative social control.

There’s a super reform synagogue in my town, their president is an out lesbian, they turned out for blm marches, host families traveling to get medical care for their sick kids, etc.

And they’re generally super pro-Netanyahu, pro-NeoNaqba.

It’s baffling to me that you can understand that there is rampant racist police violence in the US, and not in Gaza or Jenin.

I’m wondering whether this is a privileged/feels like deserves privilege white guy thing.

Down here with the queerdos and minorities, I’m seeing people engage more fully with each other, be more willing to take on friends and lovers, in the last few months.

Some are getting caught by chat bots, yes, but a lot of people are out there trying to grab human connection while we still can.

I certainly feel like the “I’m the übermensch and revel in cruelty, empathy is a weakness” mentality that the straight basic wypipo have adopted will not only discourage other people from wanting to be their friend, but also discourages themselves from seeking friendship, because they see it as a weakness.

Conservatives are fucking insane. They’re about to get the chance to really wallow in their own shit now.

How long until we see goiters and pellagra making a comeback in Texas?

Fuck Eurovision.

Shapiro from Pennsylvania. Pro-genocide, loves billionaires, condescending. Ticks all the boxes.

That isn’t both-sidesing.

I said that Harris was clearly better overall. I have a preference and I acted on it, which is the opposite of what both-sidesing is trying to achieve.

However, on the particular issue of genocide in Gaza, I only see differences in rhetoric, not differences in behavior.

I’m saying that even in what is intended to be a calculated political strategy, it amounts to jumping at shadows.

Republicans are not bound by truth or logic or even evidence in what they say.

Worry about how the people you are trying to reach will react to your statement rather than letting the Marjorie Taylor-Greenes of the world pre-censor you.

I am so far past the point of giving a fuck about arguments that end with “and the Republicans will say…”

I was gonna get snooty about being an indie game buyer, then I remembered that I bought a Larian game developed in partnership with Hasbro, so my snootiness will have to wait for another day.
