Artist, musical performer, and former derby skater from the Midwest.

I'm single, childless, and married to freedom and adventure.

ACAB, Anti-War, and I hate Democrats, Republicans, and billionaires. (Yes, even your favorite billionaire: the pop star, the philanthropost, the legendary athlete, or the soft-spoken investment guru who cosplays as middle class.) With each passing day I get a little closer to hating everyone.

Also, I refuse to use Donald's last name out of hatred for the man and his brand, FYI.

  • What are some things that everyone should try to master?

    Jump

  • Sewing

    You'll save yourself so much money and time mending clothes, blankets, and doing your own mods instead of buying new things.

  • The Secret of Happiness

    Jump

  • Me not posting about politics makes everyone happy, because I despise and criticize Trump. I also despise and criticize the Democrats.

    So you're welcome.

  • Yesterday was the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo shooting. What is your opinion on the freedom of satire in general and the satire of religion in particular?

    Jump

  • I think the people's presumption that they have some right to be free from offense has done way more damage than anything.

  • Ain't doing so great

    Jump

  • Yeah, man.

    People should obsess about every single negative aspect of their lives, every single moment of their lives, because that's healthy.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • Yeah they didn't really hide the racism inherent in their anti-immigrant demagoguery.

  • Squirrel

  • LOLOLOL

    Glorious

  • You were buzzed. You went on social media and made some comments that you would never post if you were sober. The next day do you run back and delete them all?

    Jump

  • Yes.

  • people woho regularly go to fast food chains like Burger king - why?

    Jump

  • I eat it on occasion. I actually really like the taste of Burger King burgers, but I have internalized the fact that the burger I like is 1800 calories by itself, with another 400-500 for the fries, and for that reason, I don't eat it often. I also have to take into account that, yes, it's expensive stuff now.

    My parents raised me on fast food so I probably enjoy it more than most due to the aspect of being conditioned to it.

  • Brother...

    Jump

  • There was a French museum that had an exhibition once whose intention was to simulate the way a human settlement used to smell before the advent of sanitation, and it was so bad that schoolkids were literally vomiting, and it had to be closed early.

  • If you could Thanos snap one person, thing, or event from history...what would you choose?

    Jump

  • I'd go back to the very beginning, the Prime Mover, and prevent all of it from happening in the first place.

  • Ford’s X account calls Israel a ‘terrorist state’ in apparent hack incident

    Jump

  • Might be time for Ford to get in on 2FA.

  • Last day of the year... How are you going though this night?

    Jump

  • Dude, staying in on NYE is the best.

    I'm going to have wine, read a book, and fall asleep with my pups next to me tonight. It's going to be glorious, and no lightweight drunks or cops around to ruin it.

  • "I'm really starting to regret my vote"

    Jump

  • Non-voters fucked us all by not giving a shit.

    No, they didn't. Partisan voters fucked us all by not caring about politicians' records. For 40 years straight.

  • "I'm really starting to regret my vote"

    Jump

  • I believed him. I believed statements like this paved his road to victory in 2020.

    Absolutely.

    I'll admit I voted Biden in 2020, thinking that a cultural win against resurgent American fascism would help turn the tide of history. (I didn't have any delusions that he'd actually rule as a progressive.)

    Four years later, with millions more in poverty, it's only done the opposite.

  • "I'm really starting to regret my vote"

    Jump

  • There are countless examples of Democrats trying to make lives better, and Republicans denying bills and voting against it.

    People can't eat excuses. Maybe next time put some Democracy back into the Democratic Party instead of crowning a candidate who let it all happen. Those of us who don't hang out in an echo chamber could see this coming from a mile a way, hell, Harris couldn't even win a primary against Tulsi Gabbard.

  • "I'm really starting to regret my vote"

    Jump

  • I think you're right.

  • The sad part is anyone with half a brain knows conservatives

    Both parties rule as conservatives, so there really is no choice unless you're pulling the lever for the Green Party, and we can look at our history and see that they have no real shot either outside of local elections. Look at how Biden's presidency went, for example: Abortion became criminalized, massive inflation (and record corporate profits), record numbers of new homeless every year... and his major focuses seem to have been keeping his scumbag son out of prison and funneling as much money as possible to war.

    My advice to people is this: Don't donate your money to political parties. Put it in stocks instead, and at least your investments will have some measure of representation. There are even ETF's you can invest in that follow the stock trades of notorious insider-trading federal legislators. (Tickers NANC and KRUZ)

  • Also some states/employers already do this.

    Yup, your rights in many parts of the country vary significantly depending on your zip code, and unless you're a billionaire or okay with achieving notoriety by following in the footsteps of a particular Italian gentleman, there's nothing you can do to change it. (At least outside of your local community.)

  • "I'm really starting to regret my vote"

    Jump

  • The fact people would have to even CONSIDER missing work to vote is an absolute joke.

    You're right. Voting is made arbitrarily difficult here in the States because we're ruled by the wealthy, simple as that.
