    Well, I wasn’t actually disregarding it, I thought it was something you said as a meme.

    Regardless, I never liked Twitter, even before Musk purchased it. It was never worth going on, and I’d always hear from 2015 onward what was “going on on Twitter” in all sorts of non-Twitter stuff, like different social media sites, radio deejays, movies, the news, and billboards. I hated it so much. I was hoping for Twitter’s downfall being something like, say, Twitter being taken offline, or a better site appearing, and I am not a fan of Nazis and billionaires, but since it’s gone, I am now vindicated. Although I went to Bluesky afterward, and although it does embody what people liked about Twitter, I don’t gel with what people liked about Twitter. It’s for squares. It’s for normies, for regular Joes, for the suburban wife with 2.5 kids who loves football and shopping for wine. It’s for married couples who always follow the law and believe that Hawaii should remain a U.S. state, whose sole exposure to Marx comes from seeing counter-terrorist PSAs. It’s simply not for me.


  • Shit, I wasn’t on here. Tell you what, make another Devil’s Panties Blackout in six months. We encourage people to stock up on canned foods that can be eaten later, and bathroom items, soaps, whatever. Friend groups are established for the blackout just in case somebody loses something. It might last more than a week, maybe even a month. We should post this in streamers’ chats to encourage people to spread the word; this will be on fun streams where it will not be intrusive. Make sure to target people who can remember to do things, or use it as an opportunity to help people to remember schedules. People will stay with each other to get along.



  • Fascism is rising because the bourgeoisie is funding it to keep out Communism, Socialism, Marxism, and other things that explain why most people globally cannot afford a house, or why England pays such low wages, or why groceries are so expensive in America, or why Germany is undergoing an economic collapse. Once you understand Marxism even simply, these quotes will start to make sense.

    P.S. If you’re going to say that fascism is rising in power, please just say that. I know that things are shitty because fascism is rising, but I hate when people are vague.





  • It’s not the fault of anyone alone that having kids is difficult, it has a lot to do with the economy and where the kids grow up. Sardonically braising someone for not wanting kids, especially if they may choose to have kids later in life, is a waste of words, especially considering how some people are born infertile, or sometimes become that way by giving birth. If you love kids so much, you should be taking care of them RIGHT NOW



  • Making racists openly uncomfortable without changing their minds just makes them use dog-whistles, sneakier tactics, and play martyr; and when the ruling authorities (like the government, powerful corporations, world leaders) fuck up, racists can just take advantage of that. The great irony is that “End Racism” is doing everything but actually ending racism, because actually ending racism would be a threat to a lot of people in power, namely the police who rely on fear of Black people, mega-corporations who scapegoat Jews, countless corporations who rely on prison labor, ICE agents who’d be put out of a job if immigrants were welcomed in, and so on and so forth. Racists, from 2008 to 2024, were not foreign, dangerous wolves who needed to be shoved back into the forest. They were rich, well-respected, and relied on racism for their powerful position in society.

    Despite being a Socialist sympathetic to Anarchism, I hate these fucking homilies. Movies, except for some labeled “nonfiction”, are not made to represent reality as it is. They are made to express an emotion. Of course, it’s important to note that good and evil do exist, and laws are not always good, but so what? This is just worthless to read! What have I really learned from this that I haven’t before? How does this help people achieve good? What’s new here?

    On an aesthetic note, I hate this tweet, and I have always hated Twitter, especially when it shows up on other sites. It’s been a problem since 2017. Putting “Wild.” at the end makes this snot look even more pretentious.
