  • Yeah no they’re fucking wild. Oh yeah let me just text my partner telling them the location of a note that I totally made admitting to doing it but that I planned on never telling anyone. A letter mind you that was apparently destroyed but not before taking a picture of for fucking posterity I guess? Oh and remember how I was engraving bullets the other day? That thing that you were presumably there for if I’m asking you if you remember.

    I adore the meme that Patel’s FBI fabricated those texts between the alleged Kirk shooter and his partner. Just the fact that they’ve done such a poor job gaining public trust that a bunch of people watching the story ended up like “Okay, I wouldn’t have thought the FBI would fabricate evidence like this before, but Kash Patel has utterly convinced me that they fabricated these texts. Look how conveniently they answer every single outstanding question for the investigation and sound like they were written by a 40 year old federal agent and not a college kid from Utah.”

    It’s objectively fucking hilarious. Especially if the texts are actually real.









  • The problem with just condemning violence “on both sides” is that you are buying into the right-wing framing that violence from the left and the right are in any way equivocal. That the left calling the fascist things the wannabe fascist president is doing fascist is in any way equivalent to the right saying immigrants are invading the country, or that trans people are groomers that are abusing kids, or that homeless people should be euthanized.

    From just a quick PBS article I found with like 5 minutes of looking:

    Based on government and independent analyses, right-wing extremist violence has been responsible for the overwhelming majority of fatalities, amounting to approximately 75% to 80% of U.S. domestic terrorism deaths since 2001.

    “Both sides” do not bear anywhere near the same level of responsibility for the current state of political violence in this country.









  • I sent the image to my partner and accidentally caused her psychic damage by not immediately knowing that this was the Spice Girls too. I was born in '90 while she was born in '85 and I was like 26 when we got together, so we’re not that far apart in age. But where that gap falls is sometimes huge for us.

    She’s apocalyptically gay, like “Mistook not being entirely repulsed by a boy for having a crush on them,” gay. So naturally, she was obsessed with the Spice Girls. I knew of them, but I didn’t really start branching out in my music tastes until the mid 2000’s. Before that it was basically entirely the Country music my Mom listened to or the Classic Rock my Dad listened to.

    So yeah, this was another thing that I accidentally caused psychic damage to my partner with because of our age difference.



  • Oh is that what this is referencing? I definitely knew of the Spice Girls, I was just never really into them when I was younger. I was one of those kids whose family only really listened to Country music and didn’t really branch out much until like the mid 2000s. But when I did I was more into like Linkin Park, Celldweller, and like random DDR and anime music.
