  Ultra pregnant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If no government shall bare arms against its own citizens. Then what is happening in LA?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, a few things…

  First and foremost, all authority is derived from a threat of force. Let’s just get that out of the way.

  Second, the “agreement” not to use that force on our own citizens has been steadily blurred by an increasingly militarized police force. What we’ve been seeing in terms of civil unrest in this country is the inevitable result of that. The police in this country have turned themselves into an occupying force.

  Third, conservative media has been gradually instilling a desire for violence in conservative culture. They’ve been doing this for decades. They’ve been playing the same familiar tropes that enable cultures to engage in the practice of othering, which makes them ambivalent to the idea of violence being inflicted on people outside of their cultural identity.

  Lastly, Trump doesn’t give a shit about this, and neither do conservative representatives. Outright flagrant dishonesty is a pillar of cultural conservatism. Never believe what they are saying. They have a set of rules and protections that they apply to others, and an entirely different set that they apply to everyone else.

  Sad as fuck that you need expensive set pieces to maintain the facade of your self worth. If I were over here wearing a Timex I’d still be fine with who I was. Would you?

  I’d really love to believe the narrative that the widespread adoption of LLMs will lead to a renaissance of technological breakthroughs, but deep down I know that it’s ultimately going to amplify and enable the absolute worst of what humanity has to offer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it weird to sometimes wonder wether everything you know is wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Right or wrong is rarely as binary as you seem to be imagining. It’s a spectrum. Alignment with reality is contingent upon a habit of seeking better information. If better information comes along, any intellectually healthy person should be willing to accept it and integrate it into their understanding of the world.

  Also - cultivate a habit of knowing that it’s ok to be wrong. Your beliefs don’t define you as much as HOW you choose to shape your beliefs.

  We have pattern-seeking brains that instinctually crave a sense of certainty that rarely exists in reality. We always have to be aware of that. We also live in a society that unfortunately reinforces this tendency.

  Don’t strive to be “right.” Strive to be well-informed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We'll have plenty of camps to have them sent to by then.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No one said that we were relying on the government to carry out justice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re about as fetishized as cuckolding is in right wing circles. The way those dorks toss that term around tells me enough to know that a lot of them are harboring a deep-seated desire to watch some dude rail their wife like they never could.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose one⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Drywall seems closest to a viking weapon.

  I try to be a Miguel l, but I know deep down I’m a day by day Bongus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I had no idea y cunt was this powerful⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This dude better start chugging miles of cock in a truck stop bathroom in order to absorb all those manly testosterone filled juices.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What this ultimately amounts to is the worst actors using a blanket justification to carry out revenge fantasies against whatever marginalized group they’re fixated on.

  If you happen to be part of any of these marginalized groups, now would be the time to get armed and get dangerous. It would be great if we lived in a functioning society where this wasn’t necessary, but the failure of so many of our institutions is slowly rewinding our social fabric back to wild west times.
