  • People are listening, you’re watching too much corporate news - they are angling him as legitimate to “make a race” and get ratings. These cynical fucks aspire to be the announcers of the hunger games one day so they can wear the glitter makeup and be the center of attention.

    Trump’s base is a dwindling 25% of those who vote, he already lost last time and his indictments should add up to something. The problem with our gerrymandered kleptocracy is that the federal elections come down to Shirley in Ohio/Pennsylvania. Shirley did the right thing last time around but she’s back at the prom now and everyone wants to dance with her - how will she vote? Suburban moms in the Midwest, mostly non-college educated, hold the fate of the future in their live, laugh, love scripting hands…

    So when you say “people aren’t facing up to” the people of not here are Shirley and her friends. I don’t know if she’s convinced that trump is a viable candidate after Jan 6, the stacking indictments, Biden’s moderate centrist progresses, and the Florida nutjobs as a mock trial of what would come from a gop win in '24, but keep the pressure on until the election regardless.



  • On purpose.

    Only clearer by the day that this was all an exercise to intentionally kill Twitter to the benefit of billionaires, fascists and other extremists.

    Twitter existed as a relatively free and open public space to communicate, organize and assemble to take actions for and against things at scale before musk (e.g. The Arab Spring, a terrifying moment for the Saudis especially - the second largest shareholder behind musk).

    When people collectively laughed at elon and his cringe, inbred, emerald boy antics or his humiliating divorce and other routine failures, Twitter was the bullhorn.

    Now elon and his desperate far right Toadies will work to try to rewrite reality so they can eventually have this conversation:

    "Twitter? What’s a Twitter? Wait, are you talking about blork? A bird? No, blork’s logo is a dinosaur with chainsaw arms… and everyone wants to be his best friend… and it’s against the law to divorce him… and he’s cool… and…"

    What an everlasting tool history will remember you as, elon. If they remember you at all, it will be to laugh at you - you’ll never outrun that.

  • The problem is actually that it has been thought through, extensively. The cruelty is the point. Also, nobody ever asked this “web designer” to design a website for a LGBTQIA+ wedding. This is a created farce, about a “what if”. This person creates templates, and doesn’t want LGBTQIA+ to be able to buy them as anyone else could. Conservative donors cherry picked this to ride it up the line to get their time in front of the corrupt, broken SCOTUS.

    This allows a person to say that, if they FEEL that whatever their work is is a demonstration of art or self expression, they can limit who receives it… A.K.A. “I put love into the food I make at this diner I own, and my religion is for white, Christians only. We don’t serve food to none of the other non-whites. You need to leave!”
