They did throw something out the window. Things go out windows for few reasons. Anger, guilt, laziness.

Too far? Whatever it takes. When literally nothing has mattered and there is no bottom, all bets are off. Go for it. Though, I’d prefer, using old school cartoonists over feeding ai.

Weird how the people who would “know” things are dropping dead. It’s almost as weird as all those people who fall out of Russian windows.

I don’t usually watch MSNBC but this segment caught my attention. Palantir is an extremely shady company and they’re making gazillions of dollars off the US federal government in contracts. If you don’t know about Palantir, get to know them. They’re up to no good 👇👇👇👇👇

There is only one way to react to this and that is to laugh heartily. Preferably in his face, but that’s all the reaction Trump deserves.

I’m no stable genius, but isn’t the whole point of air force 1 that no one knows which plane is actually the one the president is on? Wouldn’t using a big shiny gifted jet, um, compromise everything? Idk, a thought. #Idiocracy

The only thing I could think of was the specific use of DEI to attack against Harris during the campaign, but that doesn’t translate to the many groups of people pissed at target.

Everyone is angry and frustrated right now. I’m not even upset by the thread or the way I’m being treated. It doesn’t matter. I was trying to make a case for why we’re in this together without sounding like I was tokenizing people. But the plot was lost.

I asked because I imagine you love your family. I love mine. And I’m fiercely protective of them. We’re multiracial, I think that’s the best way to describe us. So yes, I’m super vanilla white. But I also have reasons to give a shit. And I’m not the one.
Taryn Okesson (@tarynokesson.bsky.social) reply parent
No, damn. That was awkward. I can nearly guarantee my ancestors weren’t raping in the south. I had one who fought for the north and I can’t vouch for him. The rest were probably raping in Europe because they were poor Swedes and English. Definitely not land owning gentry.

What exactly is it supposed to do, attacking people who show support? Over the years that tactic has pushed many of them into the very arms of MAGA.
Taryn Okesson (@tarynokesson.bsky.social) reply parent
This is all the same human fallacy in a different outfit that I hear from the MAGA right. And others. Just because you aren’t seeing people take actions or support causes in public spaces doesn’t mean it isn’t happening.
Taryn Okesson (@tarynokesson.bsky.social)
Reading a ton of bitter comments from people about the protests. It reads as “not good enough effort from white people” “too little, too late by white people” “white people only care when it affects them.” Take a breath.

I don’t understand why it has to be either or. Both groups are getting shit on. Women are getting shit on. Liberals are being shit on. But this article makes it clear it’s the LGBTQ community too. nypost.com/2025/01/28/b...
Taryn Okesson (@tarynokesson.bsky.social) reply parent
That’s a weird thing to say. Wasn’t the LGBTQ community boycotting them first? Besides DEI, Target was also a monetary contributor to Trump. Everyone of us has a reason to boycott this company.

My idea of a good movie is it’s visually stunning while telling a great story. This does that. And more. There’s a whole world inside this one movie. And no stupid Hollywood tropes. Plus that incredible dance sequence. More. I want to see more from this director.
