just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

the vibes are horrendous and i think it's because we're heading into a july 4th when approximately no one at all is excited about this country
The Vibes today are Very Bad and if you're out there mansplaining fascism and its ills right now after ignoring our warnings for years, I hope you have an even worse week than my own

Racism, religion, money. The big 3
Everyone is always afraid to say why people like Trump or Marie Le Pen have some level of popularity and it’s just that there’s a lot of people in the world who believe in racism. You end up with these goofy ass explanations for Trump where it’s NAFTA or shit and it’s like no you know what it is

Trump 2.0 would be a lot like Herbert Hoover’s presidency, I bet. But on an even worse and dumber scale. Collapsing the nation in many facets, leaving nobody left to support him. [Excuse the following hopium-posting:] Thus setting the stage for AOC 2028

An underrated thing about winter: no bugs. Things are clean and fresh outside There is though, less bugs in summer than there used to be. Bad!

Weird, you mean the 40-60% rise in food prices we've seen in the last 4 years wasn't based on reality or supply chain issues, but rather on pure corporate greed just like everyone already knew? Thank God the government is here to do absolutely Fuck All about it except confirm what we knew already!
Large Grocers Took Advantage of Pandemic Supply Chain Disruptions, F.T.C. Findswww.nytimes.com A report found that large firms pressured suppliers to favor them over competitors. It also concluded that some retailers “seem to have used rising costs as an opportunity to further hike prices.”

Detecting a flaw with the Bluesky design. It won’t let you scroll, when looking at someone’s account, if you can only touch the part where the description is. @bsky.app

The Times can run full court pressure campaigns over political scandals when they want to, as we saw with both Claudine Gay and EMAILS! the thing is they just don't want to with Trump

i genuinely think “toby keith made country pop for shitkickers in pickup trucks who were frequently racist shitheels” is a fair defense of his legacy, but you could remove the racist shitheel part and it would still be entirely true and it’s silly to pretend otherwise.
