Talking Points Memo:
While Wisconsin Republicans try to overturn Justice Janet Protasiewicz’s win, they’re now proposing a faux “nonpartisan” redistricting procedure in a last ditch effort to retain manufactured dominance.

I came in here to check my DMs and I see that, through posts and replies, some Black women who posted here regularly no longer feel safe here and one has left.
Yeah. I'm white.
It's not about me.
This forum is a gift.
It would behoove everyone to make it a safe place for all.

First Diablo 4 and now Mortal Kombat.

If gaming companies wanna pander to horny dudes, then they could find someone who's hotter than Megan Fox.

Just saying.

Honor killings are fucking abhorrent, and I am so sick of this shit still being the norm in the Middle East.

Many of us fled from other social media to escape the racism, the hate speech and the bullshit that has overtaken FB and the bird. Don't make blanket statements of people you only know in passing. If that's a problem, well I guess that's something you need to work on within yourself, isn't it. If you feel unsafe here, maybe you need to take a closer look at why instead of blaming it on anyone else here. You don't know me, but I'm #Antiracist and I hate rage farmers.

The thing about talking trash about other people is that they *always* find out about it.

You're gossiping with people who gossip. Do you honestly think they aren't gossiping about what you've told them? #RandomThoughts

@cassandra17lina Upsales are a thing that I failed at. Needed a water heater replaced? That's what I did. Today, oh you need a water softener, a new ducting system, roof jack, gas line 18 extra smoke detectors and etc.

Neurodiverse do not process and relate experiences in the same manner as neurotypical do.

The vibe is MISERY.

Watercooler talk at our shop today.

Insight after touring Amsterdam:
The American ideal of the resilient individual is, ultimately, a weak point for the culture.
While it is a simplistic ideal for an interesting, fictional story line, it is a liability for large-scale improvements to our society and governance.

An American DA could indict both Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis for human trafficking.

Raise your hand if you’ve never been indicted 4 times with 119 criminal charges.
