Huh, I’d really love to pick your brain on what you mean by that. My mental illnesses led to distorted realities which led to suicide attempts, so I’d argue that escapism was antithetical to my survival.

For serious, though, if you’re comfortable and care to share, feel free to dm me. I’m always interested in how others overcome and survive.

Yes, but when they get hurt, it’s their fault cuz they’re poor. But us middle-class people are good innocent people because we can afford enough amenities that escapism isn’t required for survival.

Huh, it’s almost like people who try to destroy the world are weird and shitty. I’m mostly surprised that anyone else is surprised.

Not really that big of a deal (/s), it’s far from the first time that they’ve demolished swaths of homes to ensure the Palestinians have nowhere to live once they won an appeal to regain their land.

I done seen them doing it with my own eyeballs.

It’s atrocious, for sure, but it’s far from unexpected. I’m glad lights are still being shone on this fuckery.

It’s not fair that I’m getting hurt when I voted to hurt THEM!!!

“Always never wasn’t”

That’s a wild fucking ride

I’m so sorry to hear this and I’m really sad to hear how your “role models” failed you like that. It sounds like your school said that your diploma was proof that you’re ready to succeed in the world while merely trusting standardized tests to determine how successful you’d be.

I hope you’ve since felt more proud in your daily life.

Please don’t blame this on public education, wholesale. I get that there are plenty of issues with public education, but there are teachers, departments, entire schools, and entire districts that put kids and their ability to realistically navigate the real world. I’ve worked with many teachers would would (and have) told politicians to fuck off than keep their teaching cert by abandoning their beliefs.

I’m proud to have worked for years in a school where teachers were comfortable telling students that American exceptionalism is a lie and that blindly believing anything different is a quick way to fall behind.

Who’s gonna disprove this study? The CDC? NIH? They got no funding. And is RFKJ gonna really pass up on an opportunity to point out the dangers of research?

Now our friend and his boyfriend are questioning why they have to watch us argue in the shower.

Jeez, that’s a brave thing to openly admit right now. And I work in public education.

In their defence, they keep saying that they’re not Nazis. They just keep doing Nazi stuff with Nazi people and then saying “I didn’t know they’re a Nazi! I’m against that!” And then they go do another Naziism.

Less opioid oversight

I’m 100% sure they’re going to do it either way. This ruling is just too determine if he’s gonna say, “it’s legal, it beautiful, the supreme court said I can do it,” or if he’s gonna say, “the president can do whatever he wants and I’m just declassifying these to doge”

Unconstitutional, eh?

The main thrust of the administration’s argument is that the federal government should determine national energy policy, not individual states. Legal experts said it was highly unusual to sue to block other lawsuits that have yet to be filed.

But muh states rights!

WAIT! NOOOOOO!!! YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO SHOOT ME YET, I DON’T HAVE A GUN!!!

- GOP playing GoldenEye, circa 1998

That’s just questionable behavior. Radical is trying to feed unhoused people and children of low-income households.

Oh my God, the leopards can speak!!!
