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.

  • 'Litigation is a certainty': Trump's call to end birthright citizenship would face a mountain of opposition

    Jump

  • It's about making a white christofascists nation, with Trump in it for the white fascism part (I think his narcissism has him put himself above religion).

  • Revealed: The Israel Lobbyists Writing America’s News

    Jump

  • And bad actors will use that feeling (for those that have it) against them, and to call out reporting like this as a conspiracy (that will of course ironically be broadcast through the Rights media network by the very people that have been spreading the real conspiracies from the start).

  • Is there any hope for me?

    Jump

  • Maybe a long shot, but as someone with ADHD and self diagnosed autism, I would encourage you to look into the possibility. I struggled in school all the way through, constantly told "if only you applied yourself", the problem was I was already working harder and didn't realize the system wasn't designed for my brain. Really the world in general isn't designed for anyone neurodivergent, but your life still has value, you just need help figuring out how the whole unexplained thing works.

  • Missing votes sat on their scroats and threw the election to Hitler.

  • I think a great deal of the issue on the "left" is that being such a large coalition, with takes all over the place on many topics, is that we have a very hard time getting everyone to fall lockstep behind many things.

    The right has no real platform, and thus can just use their wide propaganda network to just spread their new deflection of the day 24/7, and everyone in that network of lies does their part without question.

    I watched a good video last night talking about how we need to build a network like the right has to spread the lefts talking points, our victories, and our goals. Because the current media landscape constantly bends themselves in knots to not offend the right instead of calling out their lies and bullshit for what it is. We need to stop giving the disinformation a platform outside of the Rights network.

  • Yep, AI has been shown to create sources (books/websites/etc.) names out of just pieces of the question asked and do it with the confidence that it's real.

  • Not sure JD would get any additional terms, the cult might want to install either Jr. or Eric and start a "royalty" line of succession. And hope that Ivanka enjoys the hellscape she helped usher in for her daughter, and women everywhere.

  • Agreed. So basically they'll push living a lie on those boys, doubling down on the new religious school texts to solidify that guilt.

  • But blaming the party and sitting out, or voting 3rd party, everyone knew would lead to Trump winning, just like it did. Not voting for Harris was a vote for Trump, and makes those people just as complicity in his being elected as the people that voted for him. Trying to rationalize it as "Dems need to run a better candidate/campaign/etc" is just cover for not wanting to take responsibility for allowing the man everyone left of the GOP knew was a bad idea, back into power (and with numbers that are going to feed his ego into fascist wet dreams).

    Moral of my rant is this - criticism of the party is fine and should be allowed/encouraged, but trying to blame the party for millions of people handing Trump the presidency is a bad faith argument and should be called out as such each and every time. We are all adults, everyone knew the consequences, and we all made a choice. And people need to start owning that instead of blaming the DNC for not being their unicorn party able to 100% represent a **WAY ** more diverse set of ideals than Trumps singular ideology of hate/fear.

    It must be sad to see your company value evaporate at the hands of the equivalent of liar-Russian-roulette, where the AI will return an answer to most anything. And it will return that answer with complete confidence, giving no indication if the result is real or completely fabricated.

  • Yes, and that's their plan. And remember that health goes beyond vaccines/pandemics, but he will be part of their abortion and contraception bans as well. Couple this with whatever horrible choice Trump picks to dismantle education, and school health programs are going to contain basically just "listen to your husband and/or God (depending on the issue), he knows best" for everything.

    The people that felt like they needed to prove a point and put this man back in charge have fucked us for generations.

  • We need to do what Harris had stated, and go after all these companies price gouging like we are still in the middle of the COVID pandemic. And that is now only going to get worse with a con man in office set on making himself, his companies, and his friends (which is anyone that says nice things to him) as rich as possible by extracting what remains of the working class. They are going to weaken/dismantle unions, and likely start mass death/slave labor camps for the poor.

    He is also going to use his new position of power to pass laws to shield crypto scammers, and use his new crypto platform to undermine the US dollar and try and force more people to his crypto grift run by some of the worse humans around. And use his NFT/crypto stuff to openly except bribes to sell off the US to the highest bidder so when his dementia gets bad enough they put JD in charge he can live out the rest of his days being fed liquid cheese burgers on a golden spoon.

  • OPINION: Think you know how bad Trump unleashed will be? Look at the evidence: it will be even worse

    Jump

  • Here comes? They never stopped! And they worked overtime framing everything Harris needed to be perfect, then cover Trump talking just word salad and writing a positive interpretation of what they thought he meant by it.

  • The world’s 10 richest people got a record $64 billion richer from Trump’s reelection

    Jump

  • And the same asshats that voted for him are going to be paying for these tariffs with higher prices and blame Biden. And the companies are going to make record profits and get more tax breaks and government handouts.

  • Project 2025 chief’s book urges ‘burning’ of FBI, New York Times and Boy Scouts

    Jump

  • They are changing the name to just "Scouts" to reflect this. And is 100% why these assholes have an issue with them now.

    On May 7, 2024, BSA announced that the organization will change its name to Scouting America. While the name change will officially go into effect on February 8, 2025, on its 115th anniversary, all are encouraged to use the name immediately.

  • If there's any hope for the future, the Democratic party needs to evolve.

    I would challenge this thought that we need to wait for the DNC to change before we can stand up to fascism. Everyone left of Trump's fascist right GOP is essentially lumped together in the same bucket, and there is only one Dem Presidential nominee to represent that enormous amount of people with vastly different feelings and takes on things.

    The ability for everyone in a group that large to feel 100% like they are getting everything they want in a candidate is really really small. The one thing that should be something everyone this side of fascism should be able to agree upon is democracy is something we should be looking to preserve no matter what. And we should look to elect candidates down ballot to help move the needle left (or maintain the "norm" or whatever your jam is) and help drive the change we would like to see long term. Waiting for the DNC to just up and change how you want isn't going to happen without a push from below by the people electing representatives set on making that change.

    And seeing a candidate that doesn't 100% represent all your issues, or your one BIG issue, and sitting out the election (with that effect trickling down ballot) or doing a protest vote just hurts everyone. And now it means we are going to be pulled hard to the right and is going to take an enormous amount of work (years) just to get back to where we were, let alone where we want to be.

  • We did it, guys!

    Jump

  • You are never going to have a perfect candidate on every issue to represent everyone left of fascism in the US. And this line of "run a better candidate" just means you never actually cared in the first place. Enjoy the fascism from your high horse.

    Just gutted by the amount of people that would rather watch the world burn than have to vote for someone that didn't match their 1 issue 100%, and knowing the alternative was 100% worse on all options.

  • We did it, guys!

  • Trump is going to have/help Israel just erase Gaza and the Palestinians as a people, there will be no need for any "solution". And this is apparently what all these people sitting out wanted in the end. Hope they enjoy the view from their high horse.

  • 'Put that everywhere': Steve Bannon admits 'Project 2025 is the agenda' after Trump wins

    Jump

  • Have you learned nothing in the past 9 years? These people have been telling us who they are and what they plan to do, BELIEVE THEM! Giving them the benefit of the doubt or saying they are joking is just allowing them to continue to move the goal posts. We just gave the Presidency to a man that has been telling us he wants Nazi generals, cops to have a "purge day" of American citizens, wants to use the US military and National Guard against citizens and he 100% meant all of it. And we just granted him the power because the media and apologists continue to give these Fascist assholes cover.

  • Supreme Court will weigh in on new mostly Black Louisiana congressional district, after election

    Jump

  • Yes, keeping the power is the reason both sides do it. And even if a non partisan group were to approve them, the GOP has been messing with them to suppress minorities and then just dragging their feet in changing them, or changing but in the same bad way and then running out the clock until it's "too close to the election to change the maps now". Then if they change afterwards they already got what they wanted, and then just rinse and repeat next time.
