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.

    'Rape chat' groups with 70,000 members discussing how they have raped their sisters and mothers, offering their wives to be sexually abused and sharing 'advice' is uncovered

  • Stories like these make me lose all faith in men as a whole. We are just the worst. And distressing that this reminds me of the groups of dudes that have conferences all over the world where they tell each other "molestation stories" of little boys, which they say they "totally don't do". I forget their name and no way I'm going to Google it.

  • Corporate America Hired More Black Workers. Then It Stopped. Black workers are losing share at big US public companies as conservatives amp up anti-diversity push ahead of Donald Trump’s 2nd term

    Jump

  • Wait, he was going to protect "Black jobs" from the immigrants! Who is taking their jobs and when can we deport them?! /s

    Also this is going to get much worse before it ever swings back the other way. Trump and company will Project 2025 away all non-whites rights just like they promised. Also there are going to be some serious rollbacks on other protected classes coming right behind this. Ugh I hate this timeline. =(

    Edit - autocorrect will always be my enemy.

  • Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots

    Jump

  • I feel bad for the kids of these antivax monsters that are going to allow their kids to get measles, or even worse Polio, and potentially suffer a lifetime of health issues based on junk "science". That's of course if they don't die and/or spread it to others.

  • Appeals court disqualifies DA Fani Willis from prosecuting Trump Georgia case

    Jump

  • I could see it in the case of a defendant, but for the prosecution under these circumstances I'm not sure what could be seen as affecting the states case. The right seemed to be framing it like she made the whole thing up just so she could hire an ex (according to DA/Lawyer) and pay him a bunch of money he would then funnel back to her via gifts/travel.

    The fact that she got the indictment means that a grand jury already thought there was enough evidence of Trump's guilt for him to be charged, which blows their whole political witch hunt nonsense out of the water. Also if you were going to do some weird money exchange scam as the DA it seems like there would be much easier ways than hiring an ex (or even current significant other) as your lead lawyer in a very high profile case you know everyone is going to be looking at.

  • Appeals court disqualifies DA Fani Willis from prosecuting Trump Georgia case

    Jump

  • The way I understand their conspiracy theory is this. That the DA hired a lead lawyer in her case against Trump who she had/was romantically involved with. She did this for a high profile case as a witch hunt so that the lawyer she hired could use his pay to give her vacations and gifts in exchange for letting him work on a case that put himself and family in danger, and that several others asked before him had refused.

    It's insane and makes no sense, but that's it in a nutshell.

  • Gaetz defends ’embarrassing’ past behavior, fires shot at Ethics report

    Jump

  • Yep, he was in Congress for 14yrs, so starting at age 28. So these wild 30's were all while he was an elected official and I'm sure funded 100% on the up and up with no abuse of his position. wink wink nudge nudge

  • It started with a bunch of kids getting lead poisoning from applesauce pouches. They then traced that back to how most spices are sourced from poor countries using basically slave labor. So, these people are both not the most careful in preventing contamination, but those paid by weight of spices are almost incentivised to cut the spice with a heavy metal or something to get more $/per lbs. for example.

    Edit A good amount of chocolate and other delicious things, in the US at least, also have a "totally safe" amount of heavy metals.

  • Gaetz defends ’embarrassing’ past behavior, fires shot at Ethics report

    Jump

  • I love that this guy talks about his 30's like most people talk about their late teens/early 20's.

    And his dance around framing this sounds like a lawyer advised him, "don't say anything, but if you do, stay vague like this and deny deny deny". Although, the "OK, sure I might have "dated" and bought gifts for girls that were underage, some maybe I never even interacted with other than them asking out of the blue for money/gifts" seems both sad/bad way to explain it away.

  • Diagnosis makes sense.

    Jump

  • Much easier to grift off FUD than hope, and for many that income stream and power are near impossible to walk away from. If they tell themselves a lie enough they begin to believe it almost as much as their base does, and it's easy to get caught up in and go down the rabbit hole and end up outside of reality.

    It's also easier to rationalize being the victim of "them" than it is coming to terms with being out of touch.

  • One of the things I find the most wild about this is that he's been a criminal his whole life, is now a convicted felon, and still tries to play the white knight of law and order.

    We need to start countering the Rights propaganda before it's too late, spin their own words around and make going after immigrants looking for a better life the victims of a political witch hunt. Make them the people "treated so badly, perhaps the worst in history". It's the Billionaires weaponizing the DOJ against minorities and immigrants, the Billionaires have been living on Easy Street for decades.

  • Trump backtracks on campaign pledge to bring down grocery prices

    Jump

  • You need to watch the video of him at this non-chain grocery store and how confused/impressed he is at everything. And then the owner starts talking to him about it and Trump zones out completely and almost turns away from the guy he's so bored and only there for the PR. The guy has never shopped for himself, and is so out of touch with everyday people. He has lived in a bubble of influencers, con men, and fixers for his whole life, and has no idea how anything around him actually works.

  • Mark Zuckerberg's Meta donates $1m to U.S. President-elect Trump fund

    Jump

  • Trump has previously been highly critical of Mr Zuckerberg and Facebook - calling the platform "anti-Trump" in 2017.

    So much for "free speech" and all that "freedom" these guys are always going off about. The guy did his part of being hands off and letting Trump's disinformation spread far and wide on Facebook in the run up to 2016, but now feels like he has to pay a million dollars to keep his business in OK standing.

    This is just the beginning of Trump's fascist regime, with open bribes and bullying corporations to do the States bidding. And Elon obviously saw it as both an opportunity to make Trump swap from EV bad to non-Tesla bad, and Elon gets a government job firing people that would be roadblocks for his corporations.

    This is going to be an insane timeline, and hoping anyone with any power doesn't just hand the government over to this mad man and end the Republic without a fight.

  • Trump and his posse have also been on a 8+ year tirade about imprisoning/killing the guy as well. No way would I spend my remaining days (Biden is realistically not long for this world) on egg shells waiting to see if they are going to further punish my kid that would already be serving his prison term (unlike Trump!).

    And I think Biden would have 100% stuck to his previous stance had Trump not chosen the most grossly incompetent and very vindictive selections for his DOJ positions (and all spots really) hellbent on going scorched earth on Biden and everyone ever in his orbit.

  • I wouldn't be surprised if they don't purposefully tank the dollar to push Trump crypto coins, that will be regulation free and used for fraud/corruption/money laundering.

  • Leaked video shows UnitedHealth CEO saying insurer will continue practices that combat 'unnecessary' care

    Jump

  • And also important is that more people might be inclined to get preemptive care, and physicals/checkups, if it didn't require they jump through so many hoops (or go bankrupt if Dr. finds/treats something).

  • Putin’s regime may be closer to a Soviet collapse than we think

    Jump

  • I feel like we have a better chance of Trump giving Russia military aid than of seeing Trump making any demands of Putin, let alone "carpet-bombing" their economy. Does this author forget that Putin is the Dad Trump wishes he had, and he would do anything to have Putin feign respect for him.

  • EPA bans widely used chemicals linked to cancer before Trump takes office

    Jump

  • Agreed. I like where their head is, but when you're working with people trying to raze the government to the ground instead of actually governing, good luck enforcing anything.

  • Just a hunch, but probably a stud right in the middle and they either didn't want to deal with it, or didn't know how to move it. Makes sense if it's someone watching a video and doing it themselves to save money.

  • I learned that we can probably use UV lights shined on the skin, and maybe drinking bleach to alleviate symptoms, beautifully! I also learned if you don't test you don't have it, which is probably the most important thing to keep from having a pandemic and affecting the economy. Also in a pinch people on Tik Tok with no medical training but a "hunch" are more than qualified to suggest remedies to both cure you and/or prevent it, their advice should absolutely be followed without question.

    /s of course =)
