I mean I’ve been told this is the year to fudge on your taxes since the IRS is fucked so I mean maybe there’s some silver lining. Frankly Elon isn’t as bad as- hold on someone’s knocking on my door, I’ll be back in a bit.

Welcome to American politics, when the 2028 election begins in 2024 and the 2028 primary began in 2020.

I’m so tired.

Sadly I think he’s going to be a martyr like Alexi Navalny. The 1% is patient, and they know they can distract us and grind us down. We can raise hell for a moment, but they know our weakness is our stomaches.

That’s how I got in! Lemm.ee does just fine.

But yea, perhaps we could chat to the heads of lemmy.world to maybe pin an announcement to help other instances and help decentralisation. I wouldn’t be surprised if they would agree to do that for the greater good.

My hope is that more “quiet Democrats” get primary’d. Usually they would say “don’t primary me, you’ll risk losing us to the Republican candidate in the general and we have a moderate agenda that’s the lesser evil”.

Right now they don’t have an agenda at all, no rudder, no direction. This is the time to primary tf out of the old Dems.

What states did you visit?

I’m going too! Making some puppets to hold signs with in support of PBS funding and unions. I recently learned how to work with felt and want to use my new skill for good.

I’m thinking signs could be:

“Have you learned NOTHING from sesame Street?”

“This is not very Mr. Rogers of you Donald”

“That’s not how we treat our neighbors” with a cutout of Mr. Rogers

“Even puppets can recognize that clown”

any additional ideas welcome!

I’m currently in an apartment so I don’t have one, but when I did I let it all hang out. Let the bush breathe!

Bananamon!

I teach kids, and a lesson I have with them is on “context”.

The game of tag, is it good or bad?

Well, on the playground it is good, really fun actually!

But in music class or at the library? It’s really bad.

The game didn’t change, the context did. Same goes with parenting imo. In fact I’d go so far as to say that teaching your kids to be considerate of the spaces they are in is a good thing.

I grew up with my mom telling us to keep our hands behind our back when going into an antique store or to be polite at the dinner table, and I was always invited to dinners and nice places by my friends parents because they knew I’d behave.

Also didn’t the Supreme Court just rule that you can’t charge the president for crimes made in their official capacity? He can just say it was in his official capacity to ignore the orders so tough titties.

No you’re thinking of wives in a Scottish patterned outfit

Oh yea Spirit Airlines is great

Where’s Rachel!?

Ai is getting so much better, but I can still tell this is AI but now I’m not sure why. Something’s off and I can’t quite put my finger on it.

It wasn’t until the invention of the skateboard and baseball cap that pizza delivery could even become a thing at all

Idk I’ve always noticed he doesn’t give AF about reality. He just lies and if called out he just doubles down on his lies until he breaks the electorate and he gets elected again.

I used the same strategy to hide that I was smoking weed to my parents.
