Something that really doesn’t matter but gets me mad anyway is that no one uses venn diagrams correctly on all the memes. Makes me just furious. Like the middle bit is for what they have in common, not a secret third thing that’s the leftover from both ideas. Also those should be headings not the only text in the bubble. Goddamnit

I have been vocal on social media about politics for the first time. Those who are close to me have know my beliefs for a long time, but unfortunately I've been silent for far too long in public. And the amount of people who have unfriended me or told me to calm down is astounding. I am simply being reasonable. This is what it looks like when a people pleaser who has repressed 29 years of emotions finally cracks. I am alive and breathing fire. I will eat you.

Man, this loser was never right for the times. He never had the right mixture of spine and fire to prevent what happened from happening. Trump should’ve never been able to run again after everything. And him saying shit like this now is just exactly the kind of garbage I expect from someone with no skin in the game. He believes he’ll be fine no matter what comes next. https://www.msnbc.com/top-stories/latest/biden-address-trump-wins-election-rcna179118

Biden stresses a peaceful transfer of power after Trump wins

Aaand this right here is why I try to avoid Facebook nowadays, although to be fair most of the internet is a cesspool.

This is in a *long covid support group*, in response to a video someone else posted about how ridiculously high covid rates are right now and encouraging kids going back to school to wear masks.

The cognitive dissonance in this reply is astounding, how they can say "covid nearly killed me" and then in the next breath say "let kids be kids." Like, what, just let 'em die? Or become disabled, possibly permanently? Just normal kid stuff, ammirite?

My own kid is being homeschooled this year, for a variety of reasons--they're neurodivergent, and their needs were not being met in public school--but covid is also absolutely one of those reasons. My second covid infection *wrecked* me to the point where I am homebound, and mostly bedbound on bad days. My immune system is garbage, and I keep seeing articles comparing long covid to HIV. I literally didn't know what another covid infection would do to me--I can't even risk a simple cold or the flu. My body would not be able to handle all the viruses my kid would inevitably bring home from school, and I also can't stand the idea that they could become as sick as I am now.

And I don't think it's a "terror mindset" to want to keep myself and my family safe. It's just basic risk management to minimize exposure and to mask when necessary. A mask is not even a big deal. But the fact that so many people have this kind of thinking means that ***nothing will ever change*** and people are going to keep dieing and sick people will get sicker and that disabled and at-risk people like me will be forced to be more and more isolated because nobody is willing to make the smallest effort--like wearing a fucking mask--to keep us safe.

I cannot overstate how LIVID I am that companies in the US are not producing enough generic-form ADHD stimulant medication. That there even IS such a horrific thing as name-brand medication. That insurance is less likely to cover name-brand medication, so that it is prohibitively expensive. That, while there may be some fancy label shit sitting there behind the pharmacy counter, covered in hefty price tags for no good reason, the EXACT SAME pill manufactured by someone else is running out, and people aren't getting the help they need.

I don't have ADHD and I don't take these meds, but my husband does, and I am FURIOUS on his behalf. He tries so fucking hard. THERE IS NO EXCUSE for this shortage. It is villainy.
