Right, of course, I just meant to point out that for most of my life *white people in affluent countries* have been saying out loud "hey this is really bad"
If my *deeply insulated demographic* knew enough to care when I was a kid, how do they expect us to believe this started not even 3 years ago?
God it's such a grift
These people think we've all suffered head injuries and can't remember anything before October 7, 2023
Y'all I was in GRADE SCHOOL when Amnesty International was calling out Zionism as a racist policy
I'm in my FORTIES
I'm sorry, but you need to stop treating mail delivery in a massive country as a business. It's a service. You get what you pay for.
This is excellent and it brings up something I am noticing, especially amongst Xennial men: AI overuse*. It's like they are half drunk and are mad I won't drink the magic Kool-aid. It's cooking their brains and they are clueless.
(*all AI use is bad, I am referring here to them using it nonstop)
RIGHT??
You're rich AND you worked hard, you're not rich BECAUSE you worked hard
We all work fuckin' hard, bro, but most of us aren't rich
"The average annual salary for the top 1% in the United States is approximately $794,129, while the average for the bottom 90% is approximately $43,035, based on the most recent comprehensive wage data for 2023-2024. This means the top 1% earns over 18 times more annually than the bottom 90% of workers. "
Look, I'm not saying the rich don't work at all, I'm saying that they don't work 18x harder than the rest of us for it
The hard work isn't the determining factor of what made them rich BUT THEY THINK IT IS and THAT'S what's so goddamn obnoxious
It's a comically evil thing to do to join a party actively murdering Iranian school children because the other guys aren't supporting a country committing genocide hard enough

itβs a great day for transphobes to eat shit
It is DEEPLY important to get non-millionaires, non-tech-industry-hacks, and non-Wall-Street people onto Boards of Trustees of Colleges and Universities. I've seen @syed.nyc in action in the Working Families Party and hope you'll vote for him if you're a Wesleyan grad.
OH HELL YES @bradlander.bsky.social
Welp, that's enough Internet for me today
Me too!! But I'm a mid- to older adult
God, America's voters are just miserable. A third of the people who didn't vote just didn't think their vote would even matter. I wonder how many of them were even right
Meanwhile, in America, Democratic "leader" Chuck Schumer takes chummy photos with war criminal Netanyahu.

Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
I dunno. I go both ways on it. But if it's a choice between a media-sanitized account of his presidencies or a forboding, gaping maw of absence, I choose the latter
Damnatio. Memoriae.
image of Palantir stock price increasing after Trump elected
Karp once studied and opposed fascism. How did he become someone a Trump defender? Palantir's value is fused to MAGA.
In the Times, @michellegoldberg.bsky.social says: "the best explanation for Karpβs journey β as for most of his right-wing billionaire compatriots β is the vulgar materialist one.β
At the very least words like "poisoning," "unbearable," "bad jobs," and "owed" all deserved scare quotes
I love microfiction
