i gotta be honest, i'm not entirely sure what is intended. this decision doesn't make sense to me!

my tamagotchi 😢

i know at least three meth addicts right now. two told me they used because they can't/couldn't access their mental health medication. one told me that many people don't start until they are already on the street, and the misery plus being forced by cops to move over and over instead of sleeping encourages use. one told me it was the only way they could stay awake to work enough to support their family.

addicts need real help, like medical/mental health care, housing, a living wage.

but yeah, desperate people will do desperate things.

you know a lot of Texans are Mexicans, right? edit - it drives me nuts to see entire populations painted with such a broad brush.

my teen and i really enjoyed this movie. so absurdly stupid and a lot of fun!

androids was 1968, blade runner 1982.

but yeah, this movie is foundational, and you don't get gits and fallout without it. edit - a word

i mean, probably more people experience anxiety about an interview than don't. having created a mechanism which supports this person in conceptualizing herself and her experience more positively to manage that anxiety is a good sign, to me.

and you will suffer with them, most likely.

this is not the way to class solidarity.

my daughter said to me one day - you have to have more empathy for those who are oppressed than hatred for oppressors.

right now, i see a lot of people lumping those who are most vulnerable together with incoming leadership. indifference to those who are most vulnerable doesn't help any of us.

some of the people who will suffer most are also people who are least likely to learn. and i still don't want to see them homeless or starving.

i did not vote for Trump.

it bothers me that so many commenters are excited about the idea of people suffering.

earplugs have been a game changer for me. i haven't been shopping without them for the last six months.

my stepdad had a round tuit. you can buy them!

no fan of chatgpt/llm's generally.

but i feel comfortable calling this a chatgpt win!

i have noticed a lot of mainstream headlines leave out "depose." which is interesting.

seriously, this is depressing?

integrity on this matter isn't going to ensure healthcare for myself or family, it's not going to ensure reasonable student loan repayments, it's not going to protect non-citizens i know or work with, it's not going to keep marginalized people safe, it's not going to protect education....

i genuinely don't give a shit. i don't identify so hard with Biden to feel this reflects on me or my politics or values in the slightest.

and you know what else? if Joe wants to protect his son from the man who is looking forward to being dictator, well, that's fine with me. i suspect i would do the same in his position.

a lot of games do this?

i didn't vote for this. we are not a monolith. and regardless of who did vote for it, i don't take joy in anyone losing access to needed medical care!

i'm trying to find what they (project 2025) are intending to rename health and human services. don't find it at the moment but it's definitely some orwellian bullshit. "ministry of life" or something.

edit - department of life

and i will see it repeated endlessly online over the next several years, paired with a lot of "serves them right" style comments.

it doesn't help women or anyone else.

this is not the way forward.
