ooooh. All Cats Are Beautiful. (if we say ot together it makes nazis and special police uncomfy :)

Wow. I kinda hate we have to have a wikipedia page about Trump Derangement Syndrome, but it will be one of a few handy pages to bookmark for tracking movement on the issue.

sounds like we agree and have just a little gap in language or scope.

I just know if something such gets passed in my state, that the panel vans are going to be out and about, and getting pulled over for nothing at all turns into a likely imprisonment. For me and loved ones personally. No abstracts.

I’ve already had enough close calls with freelance bullies ready to hatecrime for fun or fear or being seen out of line to know there is a will to follow through with this kind of license for harm.

Anyway, I’m done with this back and forth for today and going to go do that research I mentioned.

Thanks for visiting the acropolis today, neighborino.

Yeah. I’m specifically saying bills like this are the more immediate threat than expansionism. I’m suggesting people check around in their own jurisdiction.

We can react to things with proportional energy to the threat. No need to employ a false binary here.

THIS is the critical rights stripping that needs to be stoppes – Even if MN is less vulnerable in your opinion, it’s a fair prompt to check the radar and trace the spread.

Like reproductive rights stripping – it gets through in vulnerable areas and then does a LOT of cumulative damage. In the case of medical care denial, long term damage. This kind of thing? Not so long term.

Go ahead and just say you don’t think this effects you personally, if that’s the way of it. No need to neg on people who are ready to engage. It’s not like we all panic and pass out. Some groups have learned to pace themselves and refresh their communities between actions. (potlucks. it’s litterally parties and potlucks…)

Sometimes trolling gathers momemtum or is an effective exhaustion tactic. Probably good tobsend thank u notes to representitives who vote to protect their constituency from this b.s.

Idk why anyone would try to minimize this horror show. It’s not something we can sleep through and expect to wake up from.

this is the begining of the hard line ‘send the disableds and crazies to work camp’. This would bag more artists, history teachers, and journalists than many folks realize.

Wouldn’t be that hard to add a little language to make it anyone disagreeing with supreme cheeto or his generous sponsors/overlords.

I really home Minnesota residents are kicking hard over this. I better check my local leg website and see if we have anything similar coming up. Might as well make an RSS feed about it…

obviously won’t go anywhere? I wouldn’t take that for granted at all.

Oh no! Fantasy business failing just like those fired engineers with safety concerns said it would!

Too bad the rare resources are already wasted!

Let me… finish writing out… this reality check for… 0 fucks.

Liquidate that shit into individual gardening grants and public train money.

libraries sometimes too. basically an overnight in a non-residential space?

thanks for your efforts!

more of us than one might think. and we don’t always need all diehard lefties to fight for Wages Hours and Conditions.

It’s good to turn up the signal as more people of all stripes become Unsure as instability and chaos build in our systems.

Anyway – something important to keep in mind is that a hard left turns are fought with gardens and tools and ‘barn’(etc) raisings even more than demonstrations or violence.

Labor movement, black panthers, and zapatistas are worth a quick study for grassroots practices.

admittedly, what the oligarchy and police state don’t want folks to learn about is Direct Action.

plausible?

u.s. is in near-freefall.

Every day we are settung precident for what we will and will not tolerate. Not pulling the lever on socialist revolution keeps us on track for tyranical feudalism.

We can make it plausible or sleep in the graves corprate is ordering us to dig for ourselves.

Pardon the passions, folks who have already worked out their character sheet and place in the effort.

The monstertruck comercial is for people in my life that I love. Also my own enjoyment.

I don’t think people who crave high stimulation messaging, or enjoy pantomime or slapstick should be left to the mercy of profiteer programming. Just because I enjoy technical reading and essay style lectures doesn’t mean that works for everyone. I wouldn’t like to leave any neighbors behind.

Not sure what works for you, internet stranger, but maybe it isn’t socratic dialogue.

So. Yah, everything from my prior post is earnest and inclusive. Folx can fimd a better place any projected sarcasm or derision.

on tumblr they say some of the reading comprehension is piss poor. (#iheardupissonthepoor)

No one needs to thank me or like me, as long as I can have my equitable living rights, yah? so no sweat: keep the emotional labour.

(◕‿◕) ! how fun thank you

people who have access to equitable righta and education (ie girls go to school, everyone has access to the economy and healthcare including sexual health) tend to self-regulate the population towards sustainable levels.

Stupidity is created through systemic sexism, dumbification, and reinforcement of poverty.

Baby booms happen when people don’t know how the world, including their bodies, work, and when uterus-havers are isolated and have control over their own life paths and bodies removed.

the usa before women had equitable banking, voting, education, healthcare, and employment access is a fine example – there are plenty around the world.

tl;dr overpopulation is an effect of discriminatory and oppressive environments and not a herreditary issue.

we are born to a bellcurve of smartness; just a lot of people get it starved and beaten out of them and are put on the prison pipeline before they can figure out what’s going on.

we’ve known this a long time but it’s hard to ‘sell’ to privledged people who didn’t have to think about it and don’t want to talk about reperations for redlining, boarding schools, etc… (good morning and welcome to the Blood Machine)

can anyone write a monster truck ad version of my comment that is readable at a 3rd grade level, pls?

also, it’s the power grip and reciprocity. that’s what makes us human.

(… ya’ll, should we get a community? is there one already?)

if puppy is too dev’y, or multiple user accounts are needed, MX linux does great on old hardware. (with xfce – kde and fluxbox are also options) [faster than lubuntu, xubuntu, zorin, in my experience]

both are wonderful.

game theory/economic zero sum gaming was the result of a paranoid breakdown.

iow, each for themselves economic policy is not based. these works are still cited in arguments against altruism though.

i have an info sharing compulsion that makes me obnoxious to people who didn’t really want a helpful reply at the moment. found my niche in DnD and study groups, but i still piss off people irl when they want to complain without being offered solutions or encouragement.

i might not have jerk intentions, but it can be jerk behavior if i misread the room hard enough.

thanks for engaging in earnest.

people are definitely people. Do you like bellcurves?

you may have a headpat, optional.

for real though, recreational third spaces are better than transit or errand-necessity third spaces for a casual “hello isn’t it interesting around here” chat.

attending social groups around interests helps take the guesswork out of whether people are cool to talk or no.

not that any of that would help anyone who leads with self-centered whining or skipped too many showers.

yeah, i know it’s kind of troll-feeding, but there are probably other people reading who might still have some hope to stop eating incel kaka and turn it around. G.I.G.O…
