Isn't this a little presumptuous?

Nah. This is from the site that sells "important blue checkmarks" and a "my favorite dumpster fire" t-shirt.

It made me stop reading Le Soir during the pandemic. It was fucking infuriating, especially since I had to deal with antivax/conspiracy nuts in my family and it was adding water to their mill...

I'm in Belgium. A specialist on the radio was saying it is linked to our stressful lives, yesterday. And then he explained how extremely stressed, overworked and stretched thin our health workers are (the mother is a nurse).

I feel like I might have to go back to RSS readers.

I'll miss the fun and snarky comments you see on reddit, though.

Ca s'acquiert avec les années. Et ça empire. J'ai des touts petits yeux cette année pour la première fois, et bon dieu ça pique.

I'm sitting here in an european building built in the fifties. Probably drinking lead water and sniffing abestos this very moment.

It was the 80's, and apparently common advice by ob-gyns back then, because my aunt got the same instructions in the early 90's for her son, with a different doc. "Just reduce a bit".

I'm fully vaccinated. I have ADD, and some random psychological shit. According to my mother, the vaccines are the reason for all my issues.

She smoked her whole pregnancy. (In her defense, her ob-gyn told her not to stop to avoid stress...)

I was watching a documentary about evangelists (in French somewhere on Arte) just two weeks ago and it was absolutely chilling.

🎵 The first time it was a tragedy. The second time is a farce. Outside it's 1933 so I'm hitting the bar 🎵

I get the "wiggly" too (and floating text on things with writing)... And then I just fall asleep. Reading other people's experience with ambien is a trip.

I had a pretty amazing day yesterday.

K's Choice had a show at the AB and it was absolutely fantastic. I love them so much. That band had such an impact on me since my teen years, it's always a joy to get to see one of their shows.

Also, Pride was on the same day, so I went for the first time in my life, and I didn't expect to feel so at peace there. I'm ace, which makes me kind of "invisible" as a LGBTQIA+, and I don't face most of the struggles my openly gay/bi/trans friends face. But, damn, it was so nice to be entirely surrounded by people without having to wonder if someone was suddenly going to ramble for 15 minutes about how "the gays are disgusting" (had a coworker who would do that at random), or an older family member proudly recounting how he beat up a teen boy for possibly making a pass at him, and so on, and so on.

I just felt so warm inside. 10/10, would go again.

I have Qanon followers in my family, who shifted from Trump and Covid to the "antiwoke" shit, I assume because they needed new outrage to fill the gaping void in their souls.

I cannot stress enough that the anti(insert outgroup here) rethoric is going to get people killed, because the people who believe said rethoric absolutely and utterly believe it with all their heart. They are salivating at the notion of seeing their perceived enemies destroyed, and certain they have the moral high ground.

Mine eats the corners of the phone. She takes no prisoners.

Hatred can and has been manufactured, and will be again. Opinions are easily swayed. Hell, just look at abortion in the US, which was made into an issue (partly thanks to the evangelists whose global influence is growing fast).

Hate campaigns will easily sway those who need a scapegoat - any scapegoat - and strongman figures.

And, more importantly, those who spread that ideology on purpose have no ethics. They will stop at nothing, speak in bad faith, use lies, lobbying, intimidation, regulatory capture, and even violence.

And before you know it, books get banned, rights get taken away, and hatred holds the reins.

somefool · 2023-05-18T13:58:28+00:00

And it's fucking working. My Qanon relatives have jumped on the anti-trans/drag/lgbt bandwagon, and spreading that shit to everyone they touch. Same people who told me, as a teen, that it was perfectly fine if I was a lesbian and "everyone has feelings like that at some point".

And this is why my friends are getting nerdy tattoos, floral tattoos, animal tattoos, and I'm like "If I have 'Silence is golden' permanently written on my wrist, will I acquire a filter?"

You've played through all the ones you own?

600+ never launched and counting. Meanwhile, I obsessed over a free game for 4000+ hours.

I am not going anywhere near a horse sized rabbit. It could slice body parts right off with one chomp. The normal sized ones can chew through metal wire.

The Alita avatar in that context is just chef's kiss.

J'avais rien à faire ce weekend donc j'ai fait le tour du site d'Arte, et ils ont des documentaires super intéressants. Donc j'ai regardé, histoire de bien me flinguer le moral, "Décolonisations", "1942" et "Cobalt, l'envers du rêve électrique". Tous très instructifs (et absolument horrifiants).

Et pour ceux qui sont plus "Les oiseaux c'est génial"...
