Bet all the Palestinians supporters are so proud they showed Harris by not voting.

I was just looking back in some of my comment replies, looking for people who'd told me how proud they were not to vote for Harris, because of Gaza, so I could tag them and ask what's up with that.

I'm not sure if I'm petty enough to do it, but I feel like doing it. I think I am petty to that level, TBH.

There's also https://ponder.cat/post/1451400 for anyone who told me Biden hadn't done enough to protect trans people. Actually! It might be better to tag the story about transferring trans women to be housed with men in federal prison. I feel like they might want to tell me more about how glad they were they didn't vote for Biden, and about how it's all Biden's fault, and mine, that they didn't feel right enough to vote not to have that happen.

It's only been a fucking week! Can you believe it?

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 9 points 7 months ago

To be fair, a week in Trump presidency years, is like eight months in human time. We just weren't accustomed to the time dilation because we got a break from it for a while.

Hey everyone, this is a place to discuss issues. Don't feed the trolls, but especially don't invite them to come here. I get it and have done similar things myself, but this isn't fighting. This is exactly what they want.
