Does anyone feel like using "bros" is divisive? Maybe I'm old but "bros" makes me think of frat boys, not a great association. Seems like sabotage.

I love Bernie, but he needs to endorse more people for the next generation. He's not getting younger!

I'm in Iowa, district is a little too personal so I'm leaving that out, but district is reps, state is sens.

At one point I've been told I can't call outside my own representatives. I'm unsure if it's enforced.

I'm hoping maybe there's others like me that will see the list for their own reps and make the call? Wishful thinking.

Dopamine just flooded my brain

Also, my dude, gay relationships are normal they are just less common. They are not "abnormal". Words have subcontext attached to them. Throwing big words around while "agreeing" with people and watching them react negatively is probably your first indication that your communication needs work.

It's incredibly invalid.

If a 5 year old asks me about war I don't need to describe in detail violently murdering people or give an hour lecture about military strategy or make idiotic analogies to more complicated topics. I can choose an age appropriate response that explains it good enough for their age. It's really that simple.

Bad faith argument. Equating two people that spend their lives together to an exclusively sexual kink is bunk. Grow up.

Thomas middleditch, the dude makes my skin crawl. Silicon valley is the only thing I've been able to watch with him, but when he's just on talk shows or being himself i have to skip past. Skeevy is the word that comes to mind.

I think this is buy design. Capitalism zaps your energy by forcing you to pay the bills and leaves no energy for fun. Lazy fun means consuming. Food, drugs, tech, media, etc.

Suffer how? Suffer from the consequences of your own actions? Fine! Let every person on earth answer for their crimes against others.

Women have been walking on eggshells among other horrors for 99.9% of recorded history for no reason, but we haven't had the privilege until very recently to call it out. Men have to suffer consequences by witnessing the harm of their own actions for .00000001% of history and expect everyone else to weep for them. Either take some responsibility or shut the fuck up and let us have our fucking MOMENT of justice.

Maybe every man needs a good reminder why hurting others is wrong. If some don't hurt people they have nothing to worry about. Maybe those who are so resistant to seeing positive change have heavy burdens they are carrying and should look inward instead of outward.

I don't believe so, but thank you for your guess!

Every time I start to feel bad for these men, I remember every time I was either victimized or made to feel uncomfortable on purpose and I no longer feel bad about it. I think there is an aspect of me that is able to sympathize, but a bigger part is fucking bitter and wants to see them get a taste of their own medicine.

I'm in the process of transitioning to the fediverse and purging shitty, morally dubious companies from my life. Currently weening off Google. I have a duckduckgo email relay, but I want to get Google completely off my phone.
