and they’ll start a war against some random people they blame for their own incompetence.

How is that any different than the bush administration?

I read your name as FelixCheese.

Really? That’s what we’re doing now? We don’t have enough public shootings daily in this country, now we’re going to add drone bombing to the mix? C’mon. What’s your excuse now? Is there another amendment to the constitution? The 2nd amendment guarantees you the right to bear arms. So what’s it going to be now? The 28th amendment guarantees you the right to bear wings?

I bought this big ass bag of mozzarella from Target. It was like 3 lbs for like $7. I was like “This seems like even if I have no use for it, I should buy it.”

Dude. You GOTTA buy it. Do you have ANY idea how crazy it is to walk to the fridge, grab a fistfull of mozzarella and walk back to your recliner while snacking on cheese?

It’s one of those habits that you initially think “What? Who DOES that???” and then you think “Well…if I had THAT MUCH mozzarella with no intended use…I guess I would too…”

And now I’ve eaten all of it slowly over the coarse of 2 months. Just fistfulls of late night cheese. And now I want to go back to the store and buy ANOTHER one. So from that perspective, the purpose is now to be fisted. That’s why I’m buying this cheese. To be fisted.

Mozzarella is awesome!

…I never knew I had a strong opinion on tiktok, but I want this to happen.

What are you talking about??? This guy is amazing!!! Loses a mayoral bid, doesn’t accrpt those results, and then attempts to set people on fire??? This is great!!! This tv show is going to get amazing ratings!!!

realizes it’s not a tv show. It’s real life

…yeah, ok, like this REALLY happened…

realizes it did

…we live in the dumbest timeline.

This is the part that made me give up. No amount of anything will make up for the fact that roughly 53% of voters wanted this, which is probably like 40% of the country. A country which has like 3.5 billionish people, and 40% want racism. They want to support the wealth gap because they’re too dumb to understand they’ll never be on the other side of the gap, and this is just renforcing it. They’re more than happy to hurt themselves if it means the OTHER people get dragged down with them. Which just makes them a tool for the rich to use the poor to destroy the poor.

We’re alienating our allys, we’re destroying our country. We’re destroying the global economy, and this is just the start. The next 4 years this asshole gets to sit on his throne, and KNOW he’ll face no consequences. He’ll face no reprecussions for his actions for him and his little asshole buddies.

I’m hurt. I’m tired. I’m in pain. I have no idea if I even HAVE medicaide anymore. They say it’s not cut off, but it was supposed to get cut off Feb 28th because of lack of state funding. I think the state itself doesn’t know. But worst of all, I have no hope. I have no logical plan for what comes next to work towards making a better tomorrow. Yesterday sucked. Today sucks. Tomorrow will suck by all indications. The GOP at this point are actively trying to destroy this country. I’m not proud to be american. I’m ashamed. I’m tired of appologizing to others for existing. And right now, if Canada decided to just atomic bomb us, I’d understand. Go ahead Canada. Take us out. We deserve it.

I don’t have a reference point for who “owns” pixelfed, or who gets the money. Therefore I don’t have a reference point for if this is a drop in the bucket, or a neverending waterfall of funding.

I thought nobody owned pixelfed. Therefore, wouldn’t each instance owner get the money? Thus making this like “each instance owner gets $5”?

Yeah…I feel like you think you’re explaining some radical new information, when that same information is the foundation of my comment to begin with.

Thanks Captain Plot-Summary!

I do not remember trump selling beans. It honestly sounds more like something from the Carter playbook. I can imagine Carter with a nice little bean farm. I cannot envision trump doing even miniscale farming.

I’d rather hear the George Carlin version.

goes to fetlife and finds “exploit me daddy!” as one of the kinks

…the fuck?

We’re at a point where I don’t even know what this headline is.

Maga pol? What the fuck is a maga pol? What the hell is “trump derangement syndrome”?

I do not understand life right now. Is this a trump ally being arrested? Or someone arrested for introducing a bill saying trump is deranged?

…we live in the dumbest timeline.

me waving a little handheld flag on a tiny pole that just says “Brand loyalty”

…what? No medal???

I mean fuck it. If trump is going to run in 2028, why NOT obama, right?

Todays word of the day is…Enshitification!

So uhhhhhh…I’m not a software developer, but are you guys hiring? I don’t know. I’ll dress up in a clown suit and do unfunny things. Maybe I can mime a satire of what it’s like working at other jobs. Like drinking coffee, looking exhausted, typing on a keyboard, looking exhausted, talking on the phone, looking exhausted, sorting through filing cabinets, hanging yourself with a noose…uh…I mean…looking exhausted.

My point is, your job sounds amazing, and I want to work there even if I don’t have any skills or qualifications. Let’s make this happen.

Um…guys? Are we going to talk about this? Because…seriously. He’s trying to shut down, silence, and censor media. That’s literally a fascist move. That’s straight from the fascist playbook. The nazi’s LITERALLY did this. So instead, Radio London would broadcast in french. They’d open and close each broadcast with a series of nonsensical phrases they called “personal messages”. What was otherwise disguised as the station listeners calling the station with messages like “Pierre dit bonjour” or “Pierre says hello”. Just seemingly innocent phrases that listeners would call in, so other listeners could hear them. Personal messages. And on one random night, a night that could have been any other night, a very special personal message went out.

“Blessent mon coeur d’une langueur monotone”

Which if you didn’t know it’s meaning, would seem harmless enough, if not a bit random. However, those in the french resistance knew it well. It was their signal to grab arms and join the fight. Because this random night just happened to be June 5th 1944. A night now famous among those who know their history. However you may also know it by another name. D-Day.

I bring all this up to mention the fact that all of that was necessary to do on Radio London, because all radio stations in France, were now occupied and ruled my the nazi’s at that time. The nazi’s shut down and censored any actual French media.

Which is what trump is doing right now. Shutting down and censoring media, while being the president of a nation that has for literal centuries prided itself on being the home of free speech. I just want you to consider the irony here, and take in the full scale of what’s happening right now. We are actively taking more and more steps each day to becoming a full on fascist state. Does anyone not see this? Is everybody forgetting history? I feel like it’s obvious. It’s on full display. They’re not attempting to hide it. They’re just going through with it.

It’s reminding me of that scene with heath ledger as joker saying if you execute a plan, and somebody unexpectly dies, everybody loses their mind. But if you state a plan is intended to have a few deaths, then nobody panics when people die.

I feel like that’s what’s going on right now. In 2024 we learned about project 2025. Details leaked. And now that people are used to the ideas, they accept them more easily, despite knowing the actual plans are terrible plans that shouldn’t be plans. But they ARE plans. So everybody is just going along with it.

I JUST got 2 of them today. Now I’m thinking it’s because of this thread. I haven’t gotten one since like…September.
