I know this will probably not be seen by anyone, but I want to say goodbye. I'm leaving twitter. I joined when I saw the terrible things trump did/said. I wanted to try to make a positive difference for humanity in my tiny way.
I can't give musk another cent on here.

NEVADA VOTERS: 10,000+ mail-in ballots are at risk of being rejected — but the votes will be counted if voters cure their ballots and fix any errors!
The cure deadline is 5:00 pm on Nov. 12. Check the status of your ballot and cure it today, if necessary: https://t.co/F9ldqwTc9F
I can’t get over the generals, the fucking generals, the most right wing, old timey conservative Republican people on Earth — they ALL said, “Trump is a dangerous fascist. Do not vote for him.”
And these dumbasses simply didn’t listen, didn’t care. And now we all have to pay.
The thing about leopards is eventually they will eat you too.
Your favorite local restaurant closing because the nice family who owns it getting deported. You thought they were some of the “good ones.” The price of produce skyrocketing even before the camps are built as immigrants flee. Your daughter dying of sepsis because the lawyers feel it’s too risky to perform that D&C.
No more FAFSA for your kids college because you didn’t know that was part of the Department of Education. Veterans having their benefits cut because they rolled back the PACT Act as too expensive. That factory in town that was going to build chips and employ your kids never breaking ground because of the repeal of the CHIPs act. The bridge that was going to cut your commute in half being canceled because of the repeal of the Infrastructure Act.
That sweet government job that you’ve loved because you can work 8 hours a day and fish on the weekends has been slated for a MAGA Schedule F slot because it controls funding for contracts that will go to Republican donors, so you’re fired without cause or any union protections.
You’ll blame Biden or the local Democrats probably. But it will be fine because Elon promised it would be uncomfortable at first but it will get better. You were just so sure it would be uncomfortable for…you know…”those people.” Not you.
But that’s leopards for you. They eat whatever is available.
Remember, educated Republicans:
After your Right-Wing fringe eats the liberals, moderates, labor, feminists, academics, immigrants & gays,
….you're next.
everyone fuck off with "gonna be a bad 4 years". it's going to be a bad 50 years. the SC will have a strong right bias for an entire generation. NATO will cease to be a stabilizing factor in Europe. there will be no ukraine. these things are permanent and cannot be reversed.

> pull the economy out of a crater

"We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back."

All won their races. WTF is wrong with this country.
And the fact that Donald Trump got any votes at all.
We are truly an Idiocracy
@sddphoto I was planning on returning to the USA in the next 2 years but I will go explore Canada instead. I cannot justify visiting a country that has willingly chosen that man.
“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
My main thought:
We're probably going back, but we can't go anywhere.
Our era will be about protecting their attempts to dismantle the progress that was made in the last century or so. It's a more sober mission than pushing for progress but it is an important one. ☮️
Never underestimate the power of large groups of stupid people.
He was the worst POTUS in history.
Impeached twice.
Convicted felon.
Tried to stage a coup.
Sold state secrets.
But hey …at least he isn’t an intelligent Black woman.
Hispanics voting to round up and throw other Hispanics into internment camps to be deported. White women voting to strip rights away from themselves, their daughters and granddaughters.
Poor rural people voting for higher prices through tariffs and tax cuts for the wealthy.
Muslims voting for Netanyahu's preferred candidate and Muslim ban author.
Christians voting for an adulterer, adjudicated rapist and convicted criminal.
Old and sick rural people voting to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
We are entering the darkest time in American history. The ugliness and evil of Project 2025 will plunge America into a deep depression.
And we literally asked for it.
