Hot Take 

Capitalism works as long as the laws that prevent abuses of capital power are enforced.

Like a 70% top tax rate.

Ikea workers are unionizing. If they don't have a logo that's a crossed hammer with an allen wrench, it's a missed opportunity

"How to read statistics"

Every time a state makes riding motorcycles without a helmet illegal, the number of ER patients seriously injured in motorcycle accidents skyrockets. Every single time.

Of course, the reality is that before those laws, those patients were going to the morgue, not the ER.

Everyone wants to live on the farm commune because they're used to seeing the farming lifestyle when you're all Done for the day.

The Psychos get sent west. The murderers get sent west.

The Gunslingers kill with their Hearts. Deal Death to monsters and defend those who can't defend themselves. You can't give that kind of responsibility to someone destined to be a Monster.

That's why all cops are Bad. They kill with their Gun, shoot with their gun, and aim with their hand. They've forgotten their Purpose in this world, and have become Monsters.

Like, I'm Queer and othergendered, Sure, but none of the Polite words for it quite line up.

It's like saying 'I'm a Democratic Socialist" when you're really a Tree Loving, War-stopping, Composting nut Hippie left over from a bygotten age. Like, sure, Bernie, Yay. When are we mandating composting toilets for general use to re-enrich the carbon in our topsoils?

I'm a Dirt-worshiping Hermaphrodite.

MH-, Jobs 

Well, that sure thing job I thought I was gonna get fell thru.

Feeling really shitty right now.

@sneakerfox@snouts.online You look like the person at the music festival everyone asks if they've got DMT.

I smell like fruit and flowers and lemongrass everywhere I go. I'm not trailing an opaque Lime Popsicle or Fruit Loops Fog Bank behind my Fedora.
