Happy earth day! Despite all of the political reasons for us to be miserable, our planet remains majestic.

Today I'd like to bring special attention to the Taiga biome.

It's easy to assume the extreme north is all ice and tundra, but it can also house vast forests, squirrels, and warm summers.

Hot sigma financial tip: Buy lottery tickets on a credit card with 35% APR, and then use the winnings to make minimum payments.

Need me a bad bitch who's emotionally blunted with a flattened tone of voice.

Regulating your emotions as a man is so easy. If you start to feel sad, just rub your beard and imagine yourself as a tragic, misunderstood intellectual.

If I were to go back in time to 1970 and repeatedly smack Reagan's head with a hammer until he had a severe speech impediment, I would save literally millions of lives.

That is simply the extent to which people excessively value charisma.

BREAKING: James Talarico wins the Democratic Senate primary in Texas.

Talarico ran on fighting corruption in DC, and winning back power for working people.

In an era of vast inequality Talarico told voters that “billionaires are waging class warfare against the rest of us.”

Need to get me a hoe from costco that squirts glizzy water

Squidward x Squilliam is an S tier toxic yaoi, they're so grindr.

Squiddy getting excited about winning over him can be understood as a submissive dom being excited about finally being able excite his brat.

Major Depressive Disorder is American-coded, and Persistent Depressive Disorder is British-coded.

I acted like I was above sentimentality for a long time but Cascadia is pretty epic

Which bad bitches should I follow?

Living in a blue state in this administration has made me a state's rights asshole. I'm a resident of Oregon, not the US. I don't recognize the federal government.

I'm gonna keep it real, my ability to be a political progressive is reliant on bugs being small, and living in the world of helldivers would turn me into a fascist.

The statistic that says more is MEDIAN income. And the size of the gap between median and mean income can be a useful tool for comparing the wealth inequality of various countries.

Also, on the topic of economics:

GDP per capita is a worthless statistic, b/c an average/mean is warped higher by the wealthy, who are not representative of how workers are doing, and have displayed little interest to helping working people, outside of entrapping them into buying more stuff.

This political moment in America is highkey making me more authoritarian. It's hard not to be, when it seems like the vast majority of the ways the 2020s are economically worse than the 1960s, could be solved by passing strong regulation, and then telling detractors to cry about it and eat shit.

Call me asparagus the way I'm insufferable unless I'm cooked.

I admire the lack of subtlety in a way.

Elon Musk is like if you took all of the charisma out of Cave Johnson from Portal. A businessman cosplaying as a scientist.

Every new season of anime got the:

Overhyped shonen with badass animation based upon a mid manga series.

"My little sister threw me into a woodchipper so now I'm reincarnated into another world where all paperwork is written directly on trees."

One Piece.

Me when I realize that the reality I was born into is overwhelmingly strange, in terms of the natural world, technology, and politics, and that I have to ignore most of it, and focus on my own 0.001% of it, to not instantly combust.

Trump's diet coke button was installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled. I just want you to think about that.

That's all I needed to say on this topic, but to be clear, I went back between gender and sex in the context of that MAGA usually doesn't distinguish them. I know they're different, even if the character limit sort of flanderizes me at times.

Amazing women have been carving out names for themselves, much to insecure men's dismay, for thousands of years. Fuck this gender separation rabbit hole, just open it all up.

In terms of the physical traits Michael Phelps happened to be born into, there's a bigger gap between him and the average AMAB then there is between the average AMAB and the average AFAB, in terms of what benefits swimming.

The best response to the trans people in sports fiasco spun by MAGA for years is to be against all gender separation in sports. Many are concerned that the broad strength differences between the sexes, but let's be honest, physical differences have always been unfair in sports.

Doomed to fail defamation lawsuits based upon internet arguments might be in the top 10 most American things humanity has ever achieved.

My bad, I talked past you a bit there with some lefty inside jokes. Just to confirm though, are you human? Your account seems to be largely about AI, so I'm not sure.

So wait, if only socialism is a theoretical system, how could you then turn around and say iphone vuvuzela 100 billion dead? Wouldn't what you just said agree with the line that there's never been real socialism?
