He/Him. I talk a lot about sports, politics and gaming here, and not so much about work. Thoughts expressed here are my own.

KIT-TEN TAXXXX!!!!

Meet @TheFrthAngel's and I's new kittens!

The Calico is Poison Ivy, and Harley Quinn is the stripy girl. They're both psycho, but Harley is *very* psycho.

The kids who truly grew up with tech glued to their hands razz us for sounding like try hards online but in fact having a baseline of education and lived experience and vetted media exposure before the computers landed in our hands WAS A REALLY GOOD THING

I’m sorry, but the side that stormed the Capitol building and made January 6th an infamous date really shouldn’t be telling anyone not to be upset at the results of the election.

[Babylonius @Babylonius]

Differing opinions are fine when the question is “should you put pineapple on pizza?”. They’re not fine when the question is, “should the rest of the population have the same rights as straight white men?”

Watching Gen Z men veer right hits different for Millennials. We lived through Columbine, 9/11, the Iraq War, 2008 crash, 2016 election, covid, abortion bans, & now this. We watched institutions repeatedly fail us while older generations selfishly protected the status quo. 🧵1/

As predicted, Israel waited until Tuesday, Nov. 5th, 2024, the date of the US Presidential election, to officially announce that Palestinians are in the process of being ethnically cleansed from North Gaza.

Doing Zionism quietly, like clockwork. https://t.co/KeJiUCX1Lw

Fascism and eugenics historically follow pandemics.

Disabled folks been trying to tell the world. What did we get? We got told to shut up and get infected.

Hard pass.

Hopefully now people will finally accept that Andrew Yang is just a fundamentally bad person

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

As predicted, Democrats are all over TV this morning blaming diffferent demographic groups for the loss. No, it's YOUR fault! Democratic leadership is the establishment, which is despised! People didn't vote based on race or gender, they voted on how much they hated your elitism.

Hey, credulous media, I hope this clears things up for you:

the day after trump won in 2016 i got cornered at school by a group of boys who told me they were going to burn me alive with my rainbow flag wrapped around my body. this was one day into his presidency. i had many horrible things happen to me during his term.

Gone is a genocidal president too hypocritical to admit it. And in comes a genocidal president who wears it as a badge of honor.

[Raya ♡ @lorayaxo]

voting against human rights is a character flaw

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

Isn’t it weird that Dems would “rig” the election when they weren’t even in power, then not “rig” it when they were? 🤷🏼‍♂️ 🇺🇸

[🌦️jay | 🎬 ❕ @murrayseinfeld]

seeing people encouraging trans youth to commit suicide because of this election is sickening and terrifying. To all my trans mutuals still in their youth (and those well into adulthood) YOU MATTER AND NEED TO LIVE FOR YOUR OWN SAKE. YOU ARE DESERVING OF LIFE

Rape allegations really “ruin a man’s life” and yet you can still become president of the United States of America 🇺🇸.

[Audley Wright @TiberiusAudley]

And yet still, we stick to a First Past the Post system so outside candidates can be used strategically.

Give us Ranked Choice.
Give us Proportional Representation.
Give us a fucking system that makes sense.

[lina 🇵🇸🇦🇲 @linaposting]

you're not getting put into a camp. there are groups who are in real danger of getting put into camps and they're sleeping on benches and under awnings, and you're not gonna say much of anything when they're carried away.

[Vivian @suchnerve]

It also bears repeating that the #1 best thing you can do for your mental health during a crisis is to improve the things you CAN control.

Remember that you have a psychological need to perceive your actions as yielding benefits. It’s the only antidote to the freeze response.

[Defying Trinity @ungodlytrinity]

Anyone whose been saying that both sides are the same....

You're about to find out just how wrong that line of thinking is.
