Me on january 1: “2026 is my year"

Me on january 18th, 2026:

they're saying spending 2 hours in the word doc changing words slightly to be more specific and evocative and moving endless commas around is one of the most noble and respected things that you can do

[cubistemoji]

fandom loves to see a unique and interesting story and go ah this would be great in my little boxes that make everything the same

[rootingformephistopheles]

I feel it would be good to have a word that's like not ragebait but shamebait, where you can read a post and just go 'ah, this person just wants me to feel ashamed of myself and is not engaging with the issue in a constructive or useful way. I do not have to participate in this actually' and like. move on with your day

My child, who spends their entire life being transfered from home to car to school and back, and is not allowed to leave the house or talk to anyone and can only in their wildest dreams imagine a life free from constant surveillance, is very sad. Obviously they're dumb and lazy, like all kids these days.

[whineandcheese24]

kind of a tangent but i recently went to a bowling alley with my friend i'm 19 he's 18 and the woman at the door didn't want to let us in because there was a sign saying under-18s needed adult supervision. everything got cleared up and we were able to go bowl, but i'm still so mad about the fact that kids need adult supervision to go to a bowling alley and arcade. like okay maybe young kids should have supervision but what do you mean middle and high schoolers need to hold mommy's hand while they play video games. kids aren't just addicted to their phones because phones are addicting, we're addicted to our phones because there's nothing else to fucking do

[shamebats]

I'm sure banning kids from online spaces while simultaneously not ensuring that they have access to offline spaces to socialize in (without having to rely on their parents who already don't have time for them) will help them feel better & less alienated from society.

so you’ve fallen in love with an under appreciated actor with a terrible filmography: a memoir

funniest character dynamic in the world to me is when you have one guy knows hes gay but doesnt realise hes in love with his best friend and another guy who knows hes in love with his best friend but does not know hes gay

[clockworkrobotic]

when i was a teenager i used to catch myself thinking "i'm really glad i'm alive right now because of all the cool personal technologies that exist" and when i did i'd think it through and reckon that well, its not like teenagers in the 70s and 80s knew they didnt have ipods or facebook or whatever. they were also happy with the tech they had. and i'd reason that in the future there would be more fun technologies that i dont know i'm missing out on right now and the future will be an even cooler time to exist

anyway i was dead fucking wrong about that last part. i hate personal technologies now. i miss having an ipod that doesnt advertise shit to me and i miss when my htc wildfire didnt harass me 45 times a day to install an ai assistant and then install it anyway when i say no and i miss when the internet wasnt 5 websites all of which i have to log into and i miss when i didnt need an app to talk to my landlord. sorry past me you were actually right about 2009

[ghostie-ghosty]

Lex is just mad he isn't the gay awakening

[cannibalings]

why are all the actual real human jobs like baker and florist and childcare worker barely paying livable wages but the fake jobs like ai specialist boot licker or marketing campaign dick sucker making six figures

[save-the-child-qais]

The world welcomes the New Year with lights, trees, and warmth. Gaza welcomes it with fire and loss. While others count blessings, I count Qais’s breaths, fearing this may be the last year he ever sees.

[save-the-child-qais]

As a new year begins, Qais is fighting to survive his injury, not celebrating. Please don’t let this be his final ending. Please donate, one donation can heal him, bring peace, and multiply goodness and blessings for you in the year ahead. 😔🫂

it's also essential, imo, that people understand how directly social media bans, internet age verification laws, and other legislation preventing young people from accessing the global internet is intended to promote nationalist and imperialist propaganda, especially with regards to preventing global north youth from developing international consciousness and solidarity with Palestinian youth. like this goal of preventing young people from knowing what's happening in Palestine is discussed pretty openly.

so if you are defending any kind of social media bans or age verification laws or internet censorship policies to "protect children" you need to understand you are playing into an explicitly zionist political project.

[iggyfing]

absolutely flabbergasting to see people who have so enthusiastically succumbed to despair. like okay denethor, but some of us are gonna actually face the armies of mordor in battle nonetheless.

[figtreeandvine]

The thing about Denethor is that he not only succumbed to despair, he wanted to ensure that Faramir succumbed with him. Similarly, a lot of people now are not only succumbing to despair, they're actively proselytizing despair, trying to convince others to join them in their hopelessness. Despair is apparently lonely and they want company in their self-immolation.

[knives-in-the-dishwater]

btw denethor succumbed to despair bc he was doomscrolling on the palantir. Sauron tweaked his algorithm so he only saw bad news, and he fell into the trap of thinking the world couldn't be saved.

Help Mohammed and his family evacuate Gaza

My name is Mohammed, I'm 23 years old, from Gaza. I lost everything in the war: my home, my education, and some of my family. My father was

Hi hi not my usual posting but PLEASE reshare and interact anyways!! Let's help Mohammed and his family leave Gaza safely.

[sailatina]

Veterans should pay double.

[s5dated-way-deactivated20260507]

oh yeah okay blame the poor people who joined the military because it was the only way they could get an education. it's totally their fault and not the government who feeds them propaganda from birth. And the only thing they get out of it is meager benefits and PTSD. that is so progressive of you !!

Demographics of the U.S. Military

Deployed around the world, the armed forces are a pillar of U.S. power and influence abroad. But many civilians are unfamiliar with their co

You're making up hypothetical people for us to show sympathy for to ignore that each person who joined had a choice. The American military is a volunteer army, conscription has not been a thing for a while.

For every poor veteran, theres many poor retail workers, waiters, students. None of which are given the same valor or entitlements for the important role they play in our society. And none of which have invaded foreign soil or have foreign blood on their hands.

I dont want a world where people are incentivized to become soldiers, and for violence to be seen as normal as any regular job. So I will not advocate for them to get special privileges. Societies where such worship takes place become barbaric.

"Following orders" didnt work for Germany, we should not make an exception for Americans.

[s5dated-way-deactivated20260507]

yeah okay sure I guess my uncles were supposed to just stay in the middle of nowhere south Carolina with no prospects other than dead end, middle of nowhere jobs because they couldn't afford college. they did what they had to. im not saying that every single person who joined did it for survival but it's bullshit to blame the ones who did for the government's wrongdoings.

[perpetual-oratorio]

Yes, them staying there would be preferable to them going off to murder people in the global south

[imsobadatnicknames2]

Love how the consequences of not joining the military they're presenting here weren't even like actual poverty or homelessness, they were just "dead end jobs". You don't understand you can't be mad at my uncles for killing people in your part of the world, they were trying to escape the horrible fate of Shitty Job.

[ahmadwaleed55]

Guys, the killing has not stopped. Hunger is crushing us slowly, day after day. Gunfire surrounds us, and even tents and the last remains of our homes are not spared. There is no safety anywhere. What is happening in Gaza is not a tragedy or a conflict. It is genocide. We are not asking for sympathy. We are asking to survive. Please help us. Please save our lives.
