  • At this point, I don’t know, I can’t change anything about it anyway, and so I’m just at peace with it for now. I’m not in a position to vote for the guy, I can’t change the mind of anyone who is, and I have no idea if he is a leftist with a colored past or a fascist playing pretend with his politics. If he doesn’t get elected, he’ll probably get forgotten within a year. If he does get elected, he’ll be voting on and proposing laws and we will see what his true policy positions are. I’m just waiting at this point.











  • If you came away from that movie thinking Bender is cool, you need to rewatch it. He’s an angry violent kid with a broken spirit due to dad’s emotional and physical abuse, and he’s inheriting his dad’s substance abuse issues too. You might think he’s “cool” because of his disaffected attitude towards the school’s authority figures, but he’s likewise disaffected about friends and family. He’s a lonely, nihilistic, troubled kid acting out and headed down a bad path. That’s hardly “cool” and has a lot of similarities to Twitter/X’s perceived user based these days.
