@GreenFire @Huntn00 (btw, "Fossil Fools," perfect 😂🤣)
@StillIRise1963 The highest ranking traitor in our lifetimes (for anyone who wonders- #AgentOrange 🙄 ) and The GOzP chose to give him an attaboy to make STUPID and sinister back home happy and re-elect them in their gerrymandered precincts. 😬 If you enable and support a traitor, does that make you traitors too? 🤔
@GreenFire It was said today on the radio that every new inditement could solidify Trump’s nomination as the GOzP Beelzebub * candidate for POTUS. *I added. 🫣 This certainly is not my Grandfathers or Father’s GOP. Some hard core breaking bad action going here. It’s not just his politics but his bankrupt moral nature would have sent chills down traditional Republican’s backs, if there any of those left.
@Huntn00
The last more than a few years have been a real wake up call towards alerting us to what some Americans think about our democratic republic form of government for sure.
I don't think that there's anything ethical or good for democracy that we can do about the anti-democratic Americans themselves. Hopefully, enough of them on the left side of the aisle are now going to get more involved in government and elections so that we can get and keep them out of power otherwise idk.
@GreenFire The much larger question is how do you as a patriotic citizen of the USA come to vest yourself in a mentally ill CROOK? If patriotic is defined as believing in the Constitution and the ideals upon the country was founded, there definitely is a disconnect. We have several million people who give it contorted lip service, but they are not patriotic at all. More like sad racists or Fool’d Ya scam artists and traitors trying to get one over on their neighbors. 😞
@GreenFire A combination of rationalizing, denial, and ignorance. A common problem for lay people is who they chose to vest their trust in, and commonly that trust goes to the source that resonates with their wishful thinking, prejudices, and perceived self interest.
Finally got a free Oracle VM so I'm giving self-hosting another shot
New #introduction for a new server... I'm a 30something year old ace nerd who's mostly here to vibe and talk about my hobbies. I enjoy #gaming (including but not limited to #FFXIV and #HonkaiStarRail), #books (mostly #fantasy and #scifi), and #knitting and #crochet. I'm a software engineer in real life, but you probably won't catch me talking shop here. I also have a very cute Siamese cat named Minnie, and I post far too many pictures of her LOL. Cat tax is included, hehe #CatsOfMastodon
Please boost to help the new server federate!! Love y'all
@n1vux @jbaggs @mattblaze I dunno, I was watching Air Force One (Harrison Ford) the other night and apparently subduing hijackers involves firing off Uzi's inside a 747 willy nilly 😂
Looks like he was #4 for takeoff. Former presidents apparently don't get to cut the line.
I assume that for safety reasons all ketchup had been removed from the plane's galley prior to departure.
That was quick. Texas A&M is paying Kathleen McElroy $1 million to settle claims after right-wing agitators and ultimately some regents objected to her hiring as journalism program director. https://www.tamus.edu/internal-review/
You know how weird things are these days? I repeatedly find myself rooting for the #CollegeBoard as defenders of #academic honesty and critical thinking.
@Huntn00 @GreenFire This is so true! Many people also don't really pay attention to what's happening in politics—either at the national level, or at the local level.
Thanks a lot, Florida. Your idiot leaders have now taken away my daughters' ability to take an AP Psychology class, which would have started in a week. In turn, this is taking away her chance to earn college credit, and therefore also is going to cost me money. I really appreciate your closeminded bullshit. 😡

LGBTQ people in the EU, there is a survey from the EU's Fundamental Rights Agency on LGBTQ experiences (e.g. with discrimination and acceptance) in European countries, highly recommend filling it out!
@realTuckFrumper Now there’s a guy (image) who revels in his mental illness.. let’s ‘s just hope the current STUPID count is low…
