Print these backpack tags and let your kids put them on their school bags. If you do not support what Charlie stood for, that is ok, and I still love and respect you. Charlie was open to engaging with everyone, but this is not the platform for engaging in political or religious dialogue. This print is for those who believe in Charlie's work and desire to honor/ remember him in a tangible way.

Fuck, I hate these people... Yea force your kid to represent your shit politics. No you don't. No he didn't. Then don't post your support for a hateful bigot. A tangible way would be shutting the fucking up and leaving society.

Don’t know a lot about them, but they’ve been all over my feed for the past week.

To start off, the context of this question stems from the current widespread disdain for Tesla and people by and large taking it out on owners and dealers. I’ve begun to wonder if there should be a similar disdain and protest of SpaceX at this point…

I’ve personally found space travel to be a waste of time, energy, and resources. That view may be shortsighted and reductive, but in the grand scheme of things I cannot justify space exploration and the advancement of space travel, especially when it is socially and fiscally benefitting the worst people.

I am not ignorant to the advances we have been able to make due to what we’ve learned in space. I just can’t see a situation in todays social, economic, and political climate where we gain anything that will help common people in the face of resource depletion and global oligarchy.

That’s why I ponder whether agitating SpaceX enjoyers is worth it.

I am eager and willing to be shown my ignorance in this topic because I am very jaded and have trouble seeing the tangible goal here from a pragmatic perspective, especially when SpaceX seems to be the main purveyor of space shit.

“Jared of Arabia” sounds racist, but I am honestly at a loss for what this lib could have actually meant…

I am looking to build a feed that will provide me with decent takes on sociopolitical, economic, and public health through a leftist lens.

I know its inundated with libs, but so is the rest of the web. The thing I want is the quick, short form, twitter-esque style of posting without the add-revenue algorithm.

I know this is a reach on any centralized platform, but for now Bluesky does not seem THAT terrible in that regard.

Thanks friends.

Hi Friends,

ADHD/Anxiety/OCD haver here. Coping with the symptoms of those 3 disorders especially around the holidays has me feeling really crappy. Mostly because of my poor communication skills with regards to my family. It’s causing stress and strain on my wife and resulted in a fight today.

I don’t know what to do, all I can think about is how much I resent myself for letting this behavior go on for most of my life and now letting it negatively impact my marriage.

I’m not here looking for solutions, but any advice wouldn’t be unappreciated.

More so, I am just looking to say out loud the thing that is eating me up inside…

I am so resentful of myself and wish I could snap my fingers and be better at life. I’m sick of people around me taking the brunt of the mental/emotional baggage I unleash on my surroundings just because I can’t handle being an adult. It’s so exhausting being me and I hate it.

Thanks for reading.

As I sit in my office building for 8 hours with a mask on, listening to people around me act like it’s over. I am counting down the seconds till I can be back in my house, safe and sound.

It's a situation that I have been expecting for a while, but I wasn't fully ready to accept it. Specifically it's one of my LGBTQ friends who honestly believes in the democrats will protect them and their partner. I have tried to make the point that both parties are eroding any sort of civility towards all marginalized groups, but fear seems to drive them more than logical observations. They make the excuse that change doesn't happen over night and that the left continues to grow and will have meaningful affects down the road. I fundamentally just don't agree with that idea and vocalize it regularly. More and more it is ending up in a circular argument where I am painted as unrealistic and my rhetoric (leftist rhetoric) is doing more harm than good because it promotes distrust in the only system we have to work with. I try to tell them it's kind of the whole point. We gotta start somewhere if we want to see a better, more representative system, but they are so hung up on the immediate future while simultaneously saying that my idealistic feelings are shortsighted and I cant expect change in the immediate future... The double-talk is wild, I know.

I am trying my hardest to stop from engaging at this point because on the most basic level we agree on a lot of stuff, but they are just way to wrapped up in the fear mongering of the democratic party. They know that the two party system is broken, they know that something drastic needs to change, but they also think that they are powerless to do anything except choose the lesser evil. It pains me because I am watching them do the same shit past generations have done, where they give up on their ideals for the sake of preserving the current status quo that they benefit from. I am legitimately watching them imply "fuck you, got mine" under the guise of civic duty and I hate it. I want nothing more than to be able to finally say "I told you so" without being a smug asshole about it and ruining our friendship.

Thanks for reading my rant. It's probably a bit disjointed, but the frustration is boiling over and I needed to vent to the only group of people that seems to understand the hopelessness of being a disenfranchised leftist.

It was absolutely bonkers watching the raddle king make false equivalencies between the terms “blacklist” and “brown-nose”.

Love seeing a tagline that spawned from a thread I was part of lol.
