  • nobody would care

    Information Overload. The march doesn’t matter. The people who did the upsetting thing have already gone on to do several more upsetting things by the time we’ve started marching against the first one. The people reporting about the upsetting thing miss the point but it doesn’t matter because nobodies actually paying attention, it’s just fluff on in the background. The white noise we need to go about our day maintaining some false sense of “staying up to date” when it’s impossible to do. The torrent of information comes from all over the globe and never stops growing. Even if everything is suddenly perfect in your neighborhood, city, state, or country, it doesn’t matter because there’s a genocide somewhere else, and the pope died, and there’s a famine and a new study that says the sweet treats you like are going to kill you and the stock market is down but it’s back up by the time you check and you should’ve bought the dip so you could actually retire but you were too busy ignoring a TV while looking at bad news on your phone and eating a sweet treat because nothing feels real anymore and you just need a hit of dopamine before you start panicking and reach for the gun in the nightstand to put a bullet in your brain because at least the bullet will be real and the silence afterwards won’t be temporary.







  • Although she was sterilized during her medical care, scientists believed that she had been capable of reproduction.

    In August 2023, Scientists asked the caretakers at Mantenedouro São Braz for fresh pictures of Dogxim. The caretakers replied that she had died six months prior to the request, being recently sterilized.[9] The time and nature of her death were never reported.

    Wow great job, guys.

    Veterinarian and conservationist Ferrari recalled that the canid had “no indications of any health problems” after her recovery.[13] Six months after the injury, she had been noted as completely healed.[2] The Brazilian government issued concerns on the cause of death.[9] The Secretariat of Environment and Infrastructure (SEMA) is conducting the investigation.





  • Ya know that’s the problem with the indiscriminate murder of men women and children. Some of them may be from the superpower that funds your entire government.

    Course, it’s not like magats or pro-zionist democrats will give even half a shit… but if someone competent was in the white house… ah who am I kidding. I have no idea why isreal gets treated like the favorite child that can do no wrong whilst being an absolute shit-stain.

    Awesome to have these two headlines right next to each other in my feed:

    Video Shows Aid Workers Killed in Gaza Under Gunfire Barrage, With Ambulance Lights On

    Senate Democrats overwhelmingly reject restricting US arms sales to Israel

    the US Senate has resoundingly voted in support of continuing the genocide in Gaza by rejecting two resolutions aimed at blocking some $9 billion in weapons to the Israeli government.

    Cory Booker, recently hailed in the corporate press for talking for 25 hours straight on the Senate floor—without blocking a vote on legislation or a Trump judicial nomination—voted against both resolutions.


  • the paramedic who filmed the video was later found with a bullet in his head in the mass grave. His name has not been disclosed yet because he has relatives living in Gaza concerned about Israeli retaliation

    “We killed your son, and it came to light, so now we’re going to kill you.”

    It’s truly hard to fathom the depth of evil in isreal right now. And we’re fucking funding it. We’re arming them, and paying them to continue. Meanwhile AIPAC continues to fund primaries against our politicians that speak out. The US is a fucking joke.



  • Well, I’ve seen this coming for a while now, but I must admit, I actually liked him once upon a time. His comedy specials weren’t just funny, they made you think about the abstract ideas of religion and consciousness. He was like a handsome rockstar comedian, the sort of person I wish I could be. Smart, sexy, cool, interesting. Hell, when I got sober from alcohol, reading his book that re-imagined the twelve steps into something less religious actually helped.

    But then I heard the rumors, and it kind of fit with the image he gave himself. And then he made that abrupt turn into right-wing conspiracy and that all but confirmed it. To be honest I thought he’d already been charged with something and had just celebrity-ed his way out of it. Sucks, man.
