Hi I'm Tim.

I'm AuDHD - officially diagnosed ADHD and self-diagnosed (for now) with ASD. I also suffer from a great deal of Imposter Syndrome.

  • Op-ed: Trump's policies are making our kids dumber, sicker, meaner and scared

    Jump

  • The problem they don't grasp is, that if you condition a population to disregard all reality, and replace it with conspiracy theories and disinformation you are going to have a growing pool of people even they won't be able to reach.

    The cult is going to leave a wake of broken people that are going to need mental health services if they are ever going to reintegrate with society.

  • Op-ed: Trump's policies are making our kids dumber, sicker, meaner and scared

    Jump

  • It's FUD + sick, yep checks out.

  • Texas lawmakers file FURRIES Act, targeting animal roleplay in schools

    Jump

  • And what would be the punishment for doing one of these prohibited actions by a student? And who is to enforce it? And distressing that the made up litter box right wing propaganda would make it into an actual law.

    Maybe we should make a law against kids fucking couches and other furniture also! I'm sure JD would endorse it!

  • Why do most people stay in centralized social media platforms when the Fediverse exists?

    Jump

  • Several of these platforms used bots and/or multiple staff accounts to inflate user count/engagement to draw more people in and trigger the network effect.

  • GOP lawmakers pass bill allowing child genital exams without parental consent

    Jump

  • Oh the irony that the shitheads that couldn't wear a mask, and want to ban books because of "parent rights", now want to ice parents out of the decision of a rando looking at their kids genitals.

  • Republicans get behind effort to make hating Elon Musk domestic terrorism

    Jump

  • And decided by the guy who started the birther conspiracy, feeds the pedo conspiracy (while openly being one), and told the world that his Presidential rival "turned black".

    Fuck Trump and Musk, they both seem to be real musky about being called out for being awful humans. Trump should probably be more concerned with what JD is doing to the White House furniture, going to have to get plastic sheets to cover them all.

  • Trump Administration Cuts Funding for Fair Housing Groups, Weakening Discrimination Protections

    Jump

  • Why would the administration led by a guy that committed racist housing discrimination with his father in the past want to weaken housing discrimination laws? Must be a coincidence! /s

  • Donald Trump Bought a $90,000 Tesla With 37 Recall Notices Against It

    Jump

  • Trump did a supermarket thing while out doing his disinformation circuit, and the owner guy was trying to explain things to him and you could tell Trump had never grocery shopped and then quickly lost interest and tuned the guy completely out.

    The McDonald's fries thing was also amusing when he learned "how fries were made" and that they put them in a basket and not scoop them out by hand lol.

  • White House in damage control mode after Musk talks Social Security cuts

    Jump

  • Oh the irony of a paper billionaire, rich off the labor of the people that depend on programs like Social Security, calling it a ponzi scheme is wild.

    And it's no more a ponzi scheme than say insurance, 401Ks, or Medicare that people pay into because the government has left them no alternative way of affording to stay alive once they stop providing labor to the machine.

    And these rich assholes that have no need for these social services because they have billions, or pensions, or government insurance need to STFU.

  • The US as a whole has gotten more extreme (we just elected a guy that praised Hitler), but we also have kids born into a world where school shootings are a common occurrence. Kids are surrounded by adults that hate people that don't fit the "norm", that fear everything, and then they see violence everywhere.

    I mean we just re-elected a guy that used violence in an effort to overthrow the government, and not only did we not punish him, we gave him that highest position in our government. He then freed the people that carried out his orders.

    The Right has also embraced the Proud Boys and other domestic terrorist organizations. The President met with a former Grand Wizard of the KKK, and told people that Nazi's marching with tiki torches chanting "Jews will not replace us" were "some very fine people".

  • South Carolina Carries Out 'Horrifying and Violent' Firing Squad Execution of Brad Sigmon

    Jump

  • He also got a 30 year sentence for burglary, which seems like an out of control maximum sentence for burglary. Dude was also 67 (was ~44 at the time of his crime), and had been behind bars for 23 yrs, why waste the time/money unless the fantasy of killing (or the power trip) is the goal.

    And not an excuse, but the guy grew up watching his mother get beatings from an alcoholic father, and surprisingly had mental health and substance abuse issues. He apparently was drunk and doing coke before going to the girls house with a bat to confront her, and got there and found the parents she was living with and attacked them both going back and forth between rooms.

  • Columbia Bent Over Backward to Appease Right-Wing, Pro-Israel Attacks — And Trump Still Cut Federal Funding

    Jump

  • The best part is he is an adjudicated felon and was indicted in several other cases he ran the clock out on, and he saw a weaponization of government where there was none, yet these protesters have committed no crime and he wants them punished beyond what the law allows.

    We are in the upsidedown.

  • One in 15 Americans has witnessed a mass shooting – study

    Jump

  • That number seems incomprehensible, and absolutely gut-wrenching. The fact we have to continue down this path of generational PTSD and survivor syndrome is maddening and heartbreaking.

  • Texas cities run short of MMR vaccine as measles outbreak drives demand

    Jump

  • Allowing people to get measles puts the general population at risk in addition to the asshole parents (and sadly their kids). The vaccine has something like a 97% immunity effectiveness after 2 doses (so less than that for only the 1st), but that means 3% of people that did the right thing could still contract and spread measles without hurd immunity.

  • Churches should not be allowed to have any political influence. They should be required to give any funds coming in right back out to the community to maintain their tax exempt status. Allowing these mega churches to have people living like the 1% while using their wealth and influence to oppress others should be enough to force them to shut down.

  • MAGA world turns against Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett

    Jump

  • I'm addition to his sexual assault history, the FBI should have been allowed to look into the large amount of gambling debt that disappeared when journalists looked into it, and his alcoholism. Any of those should be disqualifying for the highest Court in the country.

  • MAGA world turns against Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett

    Jump

  • They are supposed to be the interpreters of the law, and to send things back down to lower courts for things that are not spelled out in laws or the constitution so that the courts can help settle the grey (untested/unsettled ) areas of the law.

    The Court currently is anti human rights, pro corporate, anti environmental, pro Christian indoctrination, and pro Trump and/or fascists. The majority hasn't ruled on anything based on case law in years. And that became super apparent when Trump got to stack the court with rubber stamp judges.

  • What Lemmy app do you use?

    Jump

  • The dev has in the past taken steps away, but comes back when needed. And despite not being updated in a hot sec it's still still the best mobile app IMHO.

  • California farmers backed Trump. Now, his tariffs could hurt them

    Jump

  • It's like all these assholes have amnesia and can't remember how he screwed everyone but the rich over last time. He actually had to bail farmers out because he screwed them so bad, costing tax payers more than $60 Billion.
