The vast majority of us don’t either we just live in the real world, and understand that the only productive options are vote for the best chance to defeat outright christofascism and then try to fix things or violent direct action to remake society and prevent its decent into christofascim. Anything else is a pointless circlejerk given the timescale we have and circumstances we’re in.

By all means lead the way on direct action, I look forward to news of your fight

So that’s always been curious to me as someone prescribed adderall and takes it daily. I shit all my shit out after my first dose in the morning and then again after I get home from work. Unless I’m sick that’s how it goes, when is he taking it!?

I’m not a Texas fan or defender by any means, but I do know Texans, and the state telling them to not do something will make them do it more out of spite

I voted for Bernie and he would have been great, I always find myself thinking about Gore winning more often. I have more respect for Bernie for sure but we’d have been in such a better place by 2016. Jesus, there’s a non-zero chance that the 9/11 warnings don’t get ignored and the US definitely doesn’t invade Iraq or Afghanistan. The housing bubble would probably still have burst in a bad way but I doubt it goes down the same way. Supreme Court wouldn’t be as full of neocons and zealots.

In one of Dave’s early Netflix specials he talks about Bill Cosby and how complicated his crimes were for a black standup who was both inspired and influenced by Cosby as regardless of how shitty he is as a person is a giant of that medium. I sort of feel that way about Dave now, his show and early standup sets were so fundamental to how my sense of humor formed that I can’t completely divorce myself from them, but who he’s become is shameful and i can’t ride with him anymore.

Like fuck him for being so shitty and bigoted in general, but an extra fuck him for letting down the people he inspired and influenced. He’s become the very thing he should have destroyed

It’s gonna be a real pain in the ass to get a tech out there and look at it

I expect Jimmy will be right behind her, he probably only stuck around this long so she wouldn’t have to be alone

“ We are the only species on Earth that observe "Shark Week". Sharks don't even observe "Shark Week", but we do. For the same reason I can pick this pencil, tell you its name is Steve and go like this (breaks pencil) and part of you dies just a little bit on the inside, because people can connect with anything. We can sympathize with a pencil, we can forgive a shark, and we can give Ben Affleck an academy award for Screenwriting.”
