I’m a healthcare worker and everyone I work with mocks Covid and being precautionary, let alone even acknowledge that long-COVID exists. I can’t imagine having long-covid and having to deal with the massive amount of healthcare workers thinking you’re full of shit. It’s actually shocking sometimes to see how many healthcare workers and doctors are completely ignorant.

She’ll have the smugness wiped from her face when she gets the Rudy Giuliani treatment lol

The lack of communal spaces has also had a devastating effect on young adults. Young people are increasingly lonely and isolated, and I think that makes them 1000% more susceptible to pipelines that lead them to being incels and/or MAGA idiots. Even if they don’t do that, it’s caused depression/anxiety rates to skyrocket and people don’t know how to have normal relationships with their peers, be it romantic or platonic. People don’t know how to support each other meaningfully. Online social interactions are a shit substitute for real life relationships.

It’ll be hard not to shed a tear when they start pillaging Alaska for more oil reserves. It’s already devastating seeing what’s happening to the national parks. The one good fucking thing the US has managed to keep is our national parks intact and I’m really gonna hate seeing that fall apart. We have some beautiful land here that I’m sure some billionaires would love to turn into their vacation homes

Yes absolutely. “Ironic” communities were visited by people who didn’t know they were ironic and took it as sincere. Too many people acquire their political opinions through shitposts “for the luls” and now we have conservatives cheering about how much of a “troll” Trump is when they should be concerned that our most important institutions are being dismantled to “own the libs”. No one takes anything serious anymore and I don’t think the solution to that is more absurdity.

Yep, the statement from RFK about sending people on anti-depressants to migrant farms should scare the fuck out of people. This admin is getting better and better at snatching people up and their supporters not giving a flying fuck

I 100% expect him to throw Elmo under the bus like he has with every other person that’s been on his side. He won’t really even need to try, his supporters will do it for him because they can’t handle a reality where they were wrong about the Orange One

It’s definitely really hard to replace my lighthearted subs, but I’ll take the actual sane discussion about news and fair moderation over that. Shit is too dire for me to get hung up on memes

Yep. Never let headlines distract you. Keep paying attention

The funniest part about Teslas being on fire is that they just have to let them burn to the ground because the battery can’t be put out.

Right? What DOGE is doing is the equivalent of going into some code, highlighting a massive chunk of it, and hitting delete. And then saying “Boom, look. Smaller file size. More efficient.”

Yep, that’s why I’m here now. If I ever use my Reddit account I just refuse to upvote anything at all
