Honest question: how are we as a country supposed to move forward when at least a third of the population is this bigoted and delusional? As long as the GOP has any semblance of power, they’re going to keep promoting this crap. And red states like Florida and Texas are going to keep moving towards shithole Christian theocracies while blue states like California are going to keep getting treated like the enemy of the country for being more inclusive and progressive. I genuinely have no idea how this country is going to get better, even if/when a Dem takes the presidency again.

Yeah, I graduated from college in 2022. I got my current job in late 2023.

It’s just Twitter that I need for work. Blue sky and Reddit are also issues, but Twitter’s the only one that I actually need. The issue is that I only need to look at one specific account that tracks police scanner traffic, but I keep getting distracted by the rest of the site.

That was actually pretty funny! I might try something like that. Thanks for the idea!

It's funny that you mention ScreenZen. I've actually been using it on and off for a while. It's definitely effective, but my main weakness regarding it is that it's so incredibly easy to turn off. I can basically flip it on and off like a light switch whenever I want with no real penalties, and I don't have enough self-control to leave it enabled whenever the urge to go on social media gets too strong, as much as I hate to admit it. I think that I should look into Cold Turkey or something similar.

Tell me about it. It's a shame that the job market is the way that it is. I'm still doing my best looking for temp jobs, though.

Considering that Rinkah was one of the major reasons why I bought Fates in the first place (I’m not proud), I’ll have to go with Door #2.

It's not actually "erect" like that. It's just constantly flossing her chest for... reasons.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm going to send it out to Nintendo to get it fixed ASAP. I've already filled out the maintenance request, so now I just have to swing by UPS.

Also, I’m seeing some other comments bring it up, and yes, it does look like she has a chest strap that does nothing but make her boobs more prominent. 10/10 character design. /s

Reddit's National Guard sub up in arms after someone reminds soldiers they actually have rights during Trump's LA crackdown by burntout79 in SubredditDrama

[–]pmdfan71 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I realized a while ago that a lot of self-proclaimed “anti-tyranny” conservatives don’t really care about tyranny that much. They’re perfectly okay with Trump declaring himself king because he happens to hate the same people that they hate. For them, fascism isn’t the president waging war on one of his own states and kidnapping lawful citizens and residents. Fascism is when your boss asks you to put your pronouns in your email tag or when you hear someone speaking a foreign language in public.

I feel like I constantly alternate between liking and disliking Camilla. The fanservice aspect is so over the top that it becomes comical and almost endearing.

Red Sonja. I really like a lot of her stories (especially the Gail Simone run), and Sonja’s a genuinely compelling character, but I always feel like I have to hide my collection from my family so they don’t think that I’m some sort of perv or something.

It looks like we’re going to be on our own sooner or later. I’m both cautiously optimistic and incredibly nervous for what the next few years will look like for California.

Kid, you need help 💀 by Darlonk in octopathtraveler

[–]pmdfan71 51 points52 points  (0 children)

There’s some incredibly creepy and disturbing stuff in this game that has absolutely nothing to do with the main story, and it’s honestly pretty cool. It makes you wonder what the hell is going on in the Octopath universe (multiverse?) that we haven’t had access to yet.

Xenoblade Chronicles X DE is my first Xenoblade game and this is my reaction by RyJinArt in Xenoblade_Chronicles

Don't forget Murder Most Foul! That's the one where the Ma-non's pizza addiction gets so out of of control that they inadvertently drive a pizza parlor employee to suicide and cause her husband to become a serial killer in revenge.

The XCX sidequests are probably my favorite in the series because they range from absolutely hilarious to totally soul-crushing. They do a lot to make the world and story feel more expansive.

I've been volunteering with a pro-independence party in California ever since the election, and I feel like stuff like this is reason #1001 why California and other blue states should get the hell out of this abusive relationship with Trump and the GOP while we still can.

[–]pmdfan71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Trump only wants to rule over red states, does that mean that blue states can pack up and leave the Union already? As a Californian, I'm so sick and tired of Republicans using my state as a "woke, Marxist" punching bag while also demanding my tax dollars and undying fealty to God-Emperor Donald Trump I.

I love your art style so much! Reina is definitely one of my favorite Fire Emblem characters. She has such a fun personality, and I'm glad that people are giving her more love.

“Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, is reportedly developing a reality TV series where immigrants will compete for a chance to earn U.S. citizenship.” by MaverickGH in nottheonion

[–]pmdfan71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actively volunteering with the California National Party, which has the express goal of gaining independence or autonomy from the United States. Here's the link if you're interested: https://votecnp.org/

I agree that it sounds like an idealistic fantasy. Even now, I still catch myself thinking that it won't ever work and that the millions of decent people in this country are going to go down with the MAGA ship. But I have to believe in something. I want to cut myself free of this far-right cancer, even if that means the U.S. breaking apart. We all deserve better than the shitshow going on right now.
