My brother in Christ, I'm pretty sure we can live in a world where we can have lattes and affordable Healthcare.

I wasn't gifted, I was undiagnosed.

If you were ever in an abusive or unhealthy situation, what was the thing that made you get out?

I cry most often because:

Listen, I love Tolkien, The Hobbit gave me a lifelong love affair with books, but Hobbiton?!

Come on down to Humanville, and don't forget to visit Peopletown, on the way back!

Sometimes the world feels so bizarre to me. While brown people are being rounded up in the streets, the Superbowl halftime show was nearly entirely in Spanish, and full of queer icons, lead by a man who has very publicly come out against ICE. It's one of the most popular Superbowl Halftimes of all time.

My best self wants to believe that socially we have moved on, and we are watching a group of out of touch losers desperately holding on to power, in a world where they are slowly, but surely, becoming less and less relevant.

Of course, it's not that simple, hate and stupidity isn't that easy to eradicate, but it did make me feel a little positive to see the crowds go absolutely wild, while Conservative bullshitters tried to convince people that Kid Rock was a better option.

Anyway, that's what I'm thinking about today, what are you thinking about?

When all these people act like this Epstein Files problem is too big, and there's no way we could possibly round up, and prosecute all the people in them, remember, in the last year around 400,000 people have been arrested by ICE.

This isn't a Witch Hunt, it's a Rapist Hunt.

I feel like the conspiracy theorists are just gobsmacked right now, like pretty much all their theories were true, just not about the people they thought.

Me, reading the Epstein Files: So, Eyes Wide Shut was a documentary...

The thing with really good liars is they are the best at lying to themselves.

If you're cold you can sleep in the oven set on warm.

All struggles are futile...until they are not.

If you are doing genuinely good things, and making the world better, I don't give a fuck why you're doing it. You want recognition and attention, so what. You're just doing it, because your friends are idgaf, you feel pressured from other people, who cares. We can spend so much time tearing apart motives and guess what, it doesn't matter, and most of the people screaming, "They're just doing it for attention!", aren't doing jack shit. We don't need to wait to do good things for the "right reasons", we can just do them. And we can most definitely shut up, about why other people are.

@noodlemaz @nazokiyoubinbou That's another interesting line of thinking. My friend group often has the discussion about whether you'd go back to pre-internet days, and to be frank, I do love the internet and don't want to go back.

@nazokiyoubinbou YES! You just had to watch what was there. This is probably why I read so much as a kid.

@edgeofeurope THAT'S TRUE! I have a friend who talked about her whole family watching Twin Peaks, and then growing up, and thinking Why would my parents let me watch this trippy murder show lol

Also just access is different, there used to be one TV in the house, if you could afford it maybe two, and now everyone will have their own device.

So, apparently younger generations don't have as much generational awareness, because they have access to sooo much more content.

I'm an elder Millenial, and I grew up watching what was on TV, and then whatever VHS/DVDs my parents deemed worthy of purchasing. So, the things I would watch would be newer movies and TV shows, of course, but then also older movies and cartoons, as well. I had a larger range of social references, just because I was plumbing from a shallower well. It seems like it shouldn't work that way, but new content is being made at a unprecedented rate. Not just major studios, and Streaming Services, but things like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitch. I might watch a Midnight movie from the 70's, because that was all that was on, but younger generations never need to. There's just an endless supply of content from whatever you're into at the moment.
