To install a new Pope, somebody needs to be at home during the delivery window who is under 18.

Meaning of “you’ve got another thing coming”:

Before: “there’s no way I’m doing that”
Now: “you’re due another Amazon package”

No matter how much the manufacturer’s instructions insist on it, it still feels weird running a Bluetooth speaker under the faucet to clean it.
Whoever at GM decided that their vehicles should use the backup lights in any context other than “this vehicle is in Reverse and could run you over” should be drawn and quartered.

People often ask me why I’m outspoken about trans rights. I’m not trans so “why do you care?”

The Ogre nailed it. I care because what the government is doing to trans people is wrong. I care because we are being conditioned to accept atrocities. Conditioned to allow our fellow human being to be treated in discriminatory, dangerous and appalling ways. Conditioned to look away from the suffering of others.

It seems plainly obvious to me. They’re creating a villain where one doesn’t exist. Whipping people into a frenzy over perceived dangers like trans women in bathrooms and sports… instead of dealing with the very real dangers that are facing us (pandemics, climate change, the fall of democracy and capitalism).

They’re starting with trans people because they’re an easy mark. They’re a small percentage of the population, many people don’t think they know any trans people and therefore they don’t see it as a “big issue”.

Stripping people of their dignity and rights will always be a big issue. Just because it’s not happening to a group you care about doesn’t mean you shouldn’t speak out against it.

The trans community need allies. They need people to see how wrong this is and say “enough is enough”. They are not a threat and they don’t deserve to be treated as one.

Lastly… this type of hateful rhetoric doesn’t stop with one group of people.

It doesn’t stop at all.

They will keep coming for your rights. The rights of LGBTQ+ communities. The rights of immigrants and marginalized individuals. The rights of the unhoused. The rights of women.

They will keep coming.

If you wait to speak up, before you know it, it’ll be too late.

Speak up now. Ask the tough questions. Get to know a trans person. Support them. We are stronger together.

Trans Genocide Is Beginning. Where's Your Fucking Outrage?

This is how it starts.

BBC America running “White House Down” today is certainly…a choice?

“Our findings present the following circumstantial evidence:
• Algorithmic Bias: TikTok's algorithms consistently amplify pro-CCP content and suppress anti-CCP narratives.
• Content Origination: Much of the pro-CCP content originates from state-linked entities, including media outlets and influencers.
• Psychological Impact: Survey data shows significant shifts in user attitudes towards China, especially among heavy TikTok users, indicating successful indoctrination.”

So TikTok is already back and the app is thanking Trump for saving them even though he’s not even in office?

So it was all just a dumb stunt to kiss that guy’s ass?

Everything is so fucking stupid.

How is the other option that ByteDance had getting lost in all of this #tiktokban madness?
They just had to separate it from the Chinese government. That’s all.
