Meanwhile, somewhere in Austin Texas:

*TK shoot up in bed, waking Carlos up*

Carlos: Babe? Is everything okay?

TK: It happened.

Carlos: What happened?

TK, smiling: Something amazing.

I really despise this whole "self-empathy is when you don't give a shit about anyone other than yourself" thing. How the fuck can you just say shit like this and not feel a little bit like a piece of shit? "My country supporting a genocide? Not my problem. People in my community facing bigotry? Not my problem. An ongoing pandemic of a highly contagious disease that tends to cause permanent damage in those infected? Not my problem." Sure, in the end a lot of people think like this, but it's another thing to be this shameless that you proudly say it out loud.

#my flatmate does this on a more micro level of just being a dick to me and the flat for self care reasons 💀 #infuriating

Reliving an old political stabbing is fun and all, but personally I think we should celebrate The Ides of March by picking a new person to stab to death each year. There are plenty of eligible candidates seeing as most politicians are awful, and honestly I think this is what those that stabbed Caesar would want us to do to.

#trump will not stop running and claiming his loss is fraudulent #unless he dies #that’s all I’m saying

how are liberals responding to seeing all the fundraising for palestine. like does it cross their minds that perhaps a system where you need other people to spare you some points of some arbitrary abstract stuff called Money in order to Not Be Murdered is perhaps not the best system we could have. we have the food and water, the telecom companies already have their mobile network infrastructure, the land on the other side of the rafah crossing already exists. but palestinians have to rely on random strangers caring enough to give up some of their Arbitrary Points so that the palestinians have enough Arbitrary Points in order to Not Be Denied Access to these resources. like. i'm not crazy am i. the people can just be allowed to cross the border, the people can just be allowed access to mobile networks, the food and water can just be given to them (obviously). like this is all so obvious maybe everyone else is on the same page and is just not saying it bc it's too obvious but like. what an insane evil pointlessly cruel system

do me a solid and just reblog this saying what time it is where you are and what you’re thinking about in the tags.

#8:38 pm #thinking about punny names for my favourite sims youtuber’s legacy challenge #and about how my back hurts #and about how long it takes to cook food which is incredibly annoying because that makes it hard to manage time efficiently

the funny thing is that i don't think younger people - and i mean those under the age of 40 - really have a grasp on how many of today's issues can be tied back to a disastrous reagan policy:

war on drugs: reagan's aggressive escalation of the war on drugs was a catastrophic policy, primarily targeting minority communities and fueling mass incarceration. the crusade against drugs was more about controlling the Black, Latino and Native communities than addressing the actual problems of drug abuse, leading to a legacy of broken families and systemic racism within the criminal justice system.

deregulation and economic policies: reaganomics was an absolute disaster for the working class. reagan's policies of aggressive tax cuts for the rich, deregulation, and slashing social programs were nothing less than class warfare, deepening income inequality and entrenching corporate greed. these types of policies were a clear message that reagan's america was only for the wealthy elite and a loud "fuck you" to working americans.

environmental policies: despite his reputation being whitewashed thanks to the recovery of the ozone layer, reagan's environmental record was an unmitigated disaster. his administration gutted critical environmental protections and institutions like the EPA, turning a blind eye to pollution and corporate exploitation of natural resources. this blatant disregard for the planet was a clear sign of prioritizing short-term corporate profits over the future of the environment.

AIDS crisis: reagan's gross neglect of the aids crisis was nothing short of criminal and this doesn't even begin to touch on his wife's involvement. his administration's indifference to the plight of the lgbtq+ community during this devastating epidemic revealed a deep-seated bigotry and a complete failure of moral leadership.

mental health: reagan's dismantling of mental health institutions under the guise of 'reform' led directly to a surge in homelessness and a lack of support for those with mental health issues. his policies were cruel and inhumane and showed a personality-defining callous disregard for the most vulnerable in society.

labor and unions: reagan's attack on labor unions, exemplified by his handling of the patco strike, was a blatant assault on workers' rights. his actions emboldened corporations to suppress union activities, leading to a significant erosion of workers' power and rights in the workplace. he was colloquially known as "Ronnie the Union Buster Reagan"

foreign policy and military interventions: reagan's foreign policy, particularly in latin america, was imperialist and ruthless. his administration's support for dictatorships and right-wing death squads under the guise of fighting "communism" showed a complete disregard for human rights and self-determination of other nations.

public health: yes, reagan's agricultural policies actually facilitated the rise of high fructose corn syrup, once again prioritizing corporate profits over public health. this shift in the food industry has had lasting negative impacts on health, contributing to the obesity epidemic and other health issues.

privatization: reagan's push for privatization was a systematic dismantling of public services, transferring wealth and power to private corporations and further eroding the public's access to essential services.

education policies: his approach to education was more of an attack on public education than anything else, gutting funding and promoting policies that undermined equal access to quality education. this was, again, part of a broader agenda to maintain a status quo where the privileged remain in power.

this is just what i could come up with in a relatively short time and i did not even live under this man's presidency. the level at which ronald reagan has broken the united states truly can't be overstated.

#this is what I scream at people Al the time #it’s all reagan’s fucking fault #I hope he’s rotting in the hottest vat of horse piss
