Project 2025 is no joke and many every day Republicans are going to regret ever supporting Trump and his maniacal GOP should he be re-elected.

“ . . . at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." <— And this addle-brained old man is President? Worse yet, he wants to be re-elected? If you’re wondering why America is falling apart, start right here!

the full email is posted here but this paragraph from rachel corrie's last email to her mother in 2003 before she was killed by an israeli bulldozer is absolutely fucking harrowing over 20 years later.

I look forward to seeing more and more people willing to resist the direction the world is moving in: a direction where our personal experiences are irrelevant, that we are defective, that our communities are not important, that we are powerless, that the future is determined, and that the highest level of humanity is expressed through what we choose to buy at the mall.

#it's devastating #especially watching discourse around boycotts as the worst case scenario unfolds.#but i think allies need to hear her more now than ever...#i've seen discussion surrounding motaz calling us useless #and it's true.#not in a self-centered sense of personal guilt #but in that we have been made to believe that we are powerless to resist this #that eventually the embers of peoples' effort will die #that we have no say in our government #but we do #you do #i dont even live in the USA anymore but i can still buy e-sims and stand firm in my beliefs #even if it means constantly learning about more atrocities and constantly arguing and defending my stance #the work must be tireless when you rage against a machine #it might not feel like much... but it's honest work.

US politics and history time for a moment...

The people who want to claim that voting for Biden would mean they supported genocide remind me a great deal of the people in the 1830s - 1860s in the North who wanted immediate abolition because they believed slavery was a sin and God would hold them guilty of that sin if they didn't oppose slavery. This sometimes resulted in them supporting 3rd party candidates that, SURPRISE!, did nothing but push the election toward the most rabid pro-slavery candidates.

You know what most of those moral anti-slavery people didn't care about? What happened to Black Americans. They were concerned only about their own guilt, not Black Americans' welfare.

None of these people making this a moral issue now show any signs of caring what happens to Palestinians OR to all of the other groups that will suffer if the dumpster wins instead.

Biden can't wave his hand and make it go away because the US doesn't have unilateral power worldwide (though some Americans seem to believe that, sigh.) There are limits on his powers, especially since he has to negotiate with a hostile House of Representatives. He has chosen what is actually a pretty effective route and fought for at least some aid to get to Palestinians. And currently he has *some* leverage with the Israelis.

The question you should be asking yourself if you really care about genocide is which choice will do the most to help the Palestinians? Do you really think the dumpster would do even as much as Biden? Or would he be actively helping them and every other imperialist country (*cough*Russia*cough*)? And who else will suffer if he wins that would not under Biden?

If that isn't what matters most to you, then you're no different from the moral abolitionists and other Northerners who wanted slavery restricted (because it depressed wages for free white men) but also wanted to make it illegal for African Americans to move into new states like Ohio and Indiana and Illinois (racism and fears of wage competition.) Or to ship them to Africa, no matter how many generations had been in the US?

It's not idealism. You're self-centered and egotistical and actively choosing evil if you think "punishing" Biden is the result of not voting.

Vote pragmatically. Vote strategically. Vote with the welfare of the most people possible in mind.

#us politics #us history #And don't bring up effing obscure 3rd party candidates until they *aren't* obscure any more #And have a broad base of local and state and congressional office holders for that party to support them #And a political record that proves they can do the job #I got sucked into that once when I was much MUCH younger and saw an election go from a moderate candidate I wasn't enthusiastic about #To one of the worst presidents we've ever had #Voting for one of those in a national election is effectively voting for the dumpster #do you really know how the US government works?#Anyone who wins has to be able to get Congress to work with them and your 3rd party candidates have virtually no connections there #Your 3rd party candidate would effectively have to become a member of one of the two major parties to get anything done #But without the support of that party's political machinery etc. especially as they approached re-election

Double chocolate and blueberry loaf. Looks and smells super good, just hoping it tastes alright. I tried looking up a recipe for enriched chocolate dough and my eyes glazed over immediately, so I just winged it.

#i have made very few chocolate doughs and always forgot to add extra sugar so they were very bitter #i did add a lot of sugar this time so hopefully ? it wont be bitter ? idk its all looking good.#baking #the blueberries are dried btw bc we have like 10 pounds of dried blueberries #theres an insane and somewhat infuriating food situation going on due to the oregon government being the Worst Ever #esp re: giving people their food stamp benefits on time. i wont go into it bc it would take a while to explain and i am still very mad #but we have a lot of bulk food all bought in a panic which involves 10 pounds of dried blueberries #and im hoping they go well in bread #i do lots of bairin breac anyway which has tons of dried fruit altho that is typically soaked.... maybe shoulda soaked these...

99% of conversations on anarchism about here are hampered by people having no clue what anarchists are talking about when they refer to "the state", including, it seems, the anarchists themselves.

#juney.txt #yeah i'm some sort of ancom because i have the worst takes imaginable in all respects #but wow you guys need to like #learn the basics of what you are even talking about #read some books or hell even watch some fuckin bread tubers #watch some old thought slime videos or whatever #literally anything would be better than the nothing that currently occupies your heads #and also all the cool commies who atleast as a baseline seem to actually have reading required to call yourself one of them #or at the least are better at hiding if their politics are purely vibes-based #would help if you could approach this conversation on the anarchists term's even just a little #rather than seeing them say ''we need to abolish the entity through which the few enforce their will on the many by means of violence''#and replying ''okay but this means all of society would collapse into an unorganized mess where everyone just jacks off all day''#''how would manufacturing happen without a government''#gee you tell me. how is your society gonna run once the state withers away #god that's really what gets me. we have ostensibly incredibly similar goals #a stateless classless moneyless society #but then when anarchists talk about having a stateless classless society half of y'all are like #''wuh?? but how would that work?!?!''#like are you a communist or not.#do you even believe communism is possible?#i could understand criticisms about anarchist methods to achieving those ends. those are honestly pretty fuckin valid in a lot of places #but questioning the ends in and of themselves?!#do you think we will ever achieve communism literally ever #or are we just gonna have a socialist worker state that never completes its transition. forever.#because that would be kinda sad #give the socialist worker state estrogen. she needs it.

Every day I think about the alternate season 3 that lives in my head where it was the US government trying to open a portal under the mall and not Russia

#early st was better when it was their own government #doing fucked up experiments on kids and not caring #murdering benny in cold blood #introducing russia was the worst thing could have donw #after henry / 001 #who is the worst plot ever #my guess is they started to get big pressure from netflix #or fuckoff amounts of money from the us military #to make them look good #season 3 was juat bad tbh #the only saving grace was robin #stranger things #momo.txt

i think im so nervous about finishing my contract because i wont know what to do with myself afterwards. like, sure theyve forgotten about me and nearly abandoned me, and im quite literally being used then thrown away, but after i get my discharge papers im going to be without purpose again and i dont know if i can do it a second time

#i dont want to stay in cause fuuuuuck that #if im gonna be a meat shield for corporate interest i might as well go private sector and get paid out the ass for it #but i know im not wanted in those spaces either simply due to being support crew rather than sf or infantry #forced into being a weapon then being expected to be normal #doesnt help that being transgender on top of that means that Nobody wants me around #im scared that im going to be broken and NHP forever even when ive earned my humanity back #i already feel like i never emotionally matured past high school #cause all ive ever known was being property of religious zealots and property of the government #i think i had a two year gap of being a person but otherwise ive just been trying to survive and it shows #at this point the best i can hope for is to distract myself until i keel over from the abuse ive let my body take #which i guess isnt the absolute worst thing ever #like between working with a carcinogen and spilling jp8 on myself and the malnutrition and heavy metal exposure and multiple deaths lol #theres no way im going to be able to grow old #and its going to be painful and slow the whole way down #a part of me wishes that drone turned me into paste #being the lucky survivor is worse i think #im useless and unwanted and that kinda blows?#trying so hard to cling to life but im tired of surviving. i want to live. but im not allowed to #maybe things will improve once my contract expires and i get to have a real name again #i thought these antidepressants were supposed to make me feel better why arent they working

No new chapter tonight, hopefully tomorrow. :D I've spent today sleeping which is not an ideal way to spend a Sunday but it is what it is. The chapter is in a decently-drafted state at the moment. We'll see if I get time tomorrow to work on it.

#might have to pause for a week #ive got a lot of stuff coming up this week #my bday is soon which means my license is expiring #thats the worst thing ever why are they connected to our birthdays #so i have to do that #during work hours #also my government ID is exipiring and im getting angry messages from washington about it #look im sorry but i didnt know it was fucking expiring MONTHS before the printed date #apparently i was supposed to just kNoW #anyway #so im having to deal with THAT too #and then two labs and my proposal are due this week #and then the week after im getting a root canal #which is yay.#but i have that entire day off work so thats writing time baybee

what a horrible fucking several months it's been

#i've had the worst mental breakdowns i've had in ten years #my entire support group has imploded #like three of my friends still talk to me #my teacher is an asshole #i can barely function when i need to be studying #the government abandoned me completely #i'm constantly terrified and have to torture myself to ever feel better #just like. deeply deeply mentally ill and lonely #txt #lacevent

If anybody wants an update on the precariously-close-to-failed democracy of Ohio, the Republican supermajority is attempting to keep the sitting president off of the November ballot on a technicality they created (and have previously bypassed when convenient).

These are the same people that tried everything in their power to keep an abortion initiative off the ballot despite swearing up and down it wouldn't pass anyway because they totally represent the average Ohioan's opinion on this matter so they KNOW Ohioans are against abortion, and when the measure DID get put on the ballot and Ohioans DID vote to protect abortion, they immediately said "This isn't over," because fuck the people's will.

I've said it before and I will continue to scream it until I'm red in the fucking face:

One party isn't perfect, but they have shown they value the most basic tenets of representative democracy.

The other party is pulling out all the stops to ensure we are a "democracy" in theory only.

#btw some of the worst republicans in the nation (tho not the most outrageous) are from ohio #before roe v wade was even being challenged every small town and conservative city #was starting to pass legislation banning it #'in the event' rvw was overturned #some of the shadiest most corrupt conservative politicians outside of texas are in ohio #and they are constantly overlooked bc 'it's ohio who cares'#despite being the 7th most populous state in the country it feels like almost no one ever acknowledges the fucked up shit that happens ther #it is extremely frustrating #i was crying on the phone to my bf once venting abt the shit i was seeing and hearing re:abortion #bc i genuinely believed (and still do) there was no way so many conservatives would start passing such bans #all at the SAME TIME #if they didnt have word that something was going on. that SOMEONE behind closes doors had hinted at something.#and i was told i was being paranoid. there's no way it wld be overturned.#that's what a bunch of blue state motherfuckers kept saying #and look what happened #and now these same blue state motherfuckers say they dont have/want to vote for biden #and it drives me insane #bc the kind of conservatives that have taken over ohio love that rhetoric.#and maybe this is bc im from a red state but i CANNOT STAND you stipid motherfuckers that take shit for granted #voting is the absolute bare minimum #when you dont do it and promote voter apathy #these are the peoppe you're letting win #and frankly giving in to voter apathy bc ur in a 'safe' blue state is despicable to me #bc ur potentially spreading that apathy to states that need voters that ARENT Christian fascists to get out and vote #and the onyl thing keeping some of the more despicable red governments in our country in check rn #WHETHER YOU WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT OR NOT #is Biden's administration #they are NOT equal and if you are genuonely making that argument im not being nice anymore u just have shit for brains #youve spent too much time engaging in rhetoric on the internet and have officially lost touch with reality #im.on mobile so I'm not fixing the typos in my tags fuck you
