“Many Americans appear to be suffering from moral injury due to Trump’s policies. Dr. Alyssa Burgart, who specializes in this issue, describes it as “the sense that we do not really know each other and that our society doesn’t believe or act the way we thought it would. This can lead to a sense of hopelessness and loss of faith in individuals and organizations.” Moral injury is usually found in veterans, health care workers and first responders. Burgart says it’s becoming more common among voters. She believes that Trump’s reelection in 2024 represented “a further fracturing in America’s moral divide.””

The moral injury caused by Trump’s policies

This is what I have been experiencing since the dumbest people in the world joined hands with the most despicable people in the world to reelect the the most despcable man (also a pedophile rapist) after he promised to do all the things they insist the did not vote for.

It’s just so crazy to realize that, as a white guy, I am only now starting to see and experience the America that Black and Brown people have lived in for 250 years. I just didn’t see past the mask. I think I was afraid to look, to be honest.

When America ripped off its mask, I knew we’d find a monster underneath. I had no idea, could not imagine or even comprehend, the Lovecraftian horror of anger, rage, racism, hate, proud ignorance and lust for violence that has always been there.

I grew up in a house with two deeply racist, incomprehensibly stupid, tirelessly revanchist dipshits. I had a front row seat, and even I could not see how truly irredeemable and despicable they truly are.

No wonder my parents had no friends when I was growing up, and we rarely visited extended family. It all makes so much sense, now.

The real issue between Tim Allen's Jason and Alan Rickman's Alexander in Galaxy Quest was that Jason was blissfully unaware of any of the fanfic people had written about their two characters while Alexander had been asked in detail about some of the finer points of Mak'tar "biology" at every con since the 80s

idk man i just think breed standards should be more about “hey so this is what a healthy dog’s back should look like”, “this is what a functional sled dog’s chest should be shaped like”, “this is the coat type a bird dog should have to keep warm in cold water” etc and not at all about “the dog needs to be APRICOT with NO WHITE SPOTS and FRIENDLY EYES or the judge will SHOOT YOU with a GUN so help me god”

people talk about how we need to bring back "don't feed the trolls" rhetoric for modern internet ragebait and I agree but also I think the most useful thing from the Old Internet that I miss is LURKING

be a lurker. just read things and think about them without feeling the need to weigh in or call out or disseminate everything you encounter. it's so nice and so freeing and it's a good way to learn things.

I have frequently regretted getting involved in shit that didn't involve me online but you know what I've never regretted doing? Lurking. literally lurk moar

the transition in the past two decades from family sitcoms and ‘friends all living together’ sitcoms to workplace comedies signifies a larger shift in how work dominates our lives and leaves no space for traditional family or community raising in this essay i will
