The hardest part of all this for me is the fact that the people with the power to hold these fascist bullying abusers accountable for even the least of their offenses will find any excuse to not do that.

We had some incredible clouds today.
I had to see this so you do too
Reminder that people lost their jobs for saying Trump and his administration were racist
"keeping teenagers off social media": fine enough in theory
"mandating that everybody provide proof of legal identity to random tech companies in order to use internet services": bad shit!
If you can't stomach more horrors, turn off autoplay if you haven't.
I know this sounds hopelessly naive and plaintive at this point but a large part of me is just shrieking WHY THE FUCK DOESN’T SOMEONE FUCKING DO SOMETHING
I have no regrets for siding with the freaks in this on-going nonsense. If only more people showed solidarity with those people, we would have a stronger voice against it all. But nah, it's all fun and games until their favorite thing is seen "gross" and gets scrubbed off.

@genuscorvidae.bsky.social met some handsome friends of yours in Great Smokey Mountain National Park today! This fellow came up to see if we had any treats before heading off to his lookout tree.
So.
I don't know about you, but yesterday...fucked me up a wee bit.
So today and the next few days I'm going to try to breathe a little easier. Shit'll still be on fire if I rest a bit.
DONNIE NO!!
The world sucks, if you need something to read that is just magic, dragons, teenagers, bad decisions, and one sassy talking bird, all wrapped in Rumiko Takahashi's comedy style, may I suggest our webcomic?

Hi all, its your friendly neighborhood retired therapist here to remind you that the horrors persist and so do we!

Memes image of Aragorn and Theoden with undercuts and earrings saying "Chat, the beacon notification just hit. Gondor's asking for a carry" and "Say less."
Was feeling melancholy, but then I dug up Theoden with an undercut from my vault of memes

So much about contemporary life is intolerably immediate. There is no possible way we're going to keep up with this. And we're not going to individually change our culture, but holy shit, we need to slow down.
yes you fucking morons free preschool for everyone or it becomes just "free preschool for the poors" and then you call them leeches and ask for tax breaks when really we want free preschool for everyone because we want smart well adjusted kids why is this so hard?
