  • Old Charlie before he reached his personal turning point used to like to talk about the Great Replacement, which is a white supremacist theory that says that white people are being replaced by non white people, mostly Muslims, and call it “white genocide”. He also likes to talk about “prowling blacks” and a whole lot of other racist shit.

    Just because he didn’t wear a hood and have a swastika tattoo doesn’t make him any less of a Nazi. Good riddance.



















  • Exactly.

    I went back to church 5 years ago after walking away when I was 18. It truly has been the best experience for me, has made a VAST difference in my life, and I wouldn’t call myself visibly religious either; I am a believer, but I’d never discuss it outside of my church friends. I’m picky about what religious people I’d associate with because I sure don’t subscribe to the nonsense about queer people and abortion that many of them do. I would NEVER try to convert someone or anything like that. If someone expresses interest in coming with me, cool, but really you would never hear from me about it otherwise.



  • Lemmy, Bluesky, Catodon, which is an adorable Mastodon clone which is way better than the Mastodon app. Pixelfed is nice too.

    An aside, I haven’t used my Twitter account in 11 years, and I would read it now and then, but when Space Karen bought it I logged out and deleted it (didn’t deactivate so nobody took my name), and randomly a few weeks ago got notified my account has been banned for “inauthentic behaviour”. It was super weird, but who cares. Dumpster fire.


  • Not if they have to simply because of affordability, of course not. But I don’t see why anyone who isn’t American would be going anywhere near the US right now, and certainly trying to avoid American products. Canadian grocery stores are labelling what products are affected by tariffs and what products are Canadian and most people are really making an effort to not buy anything American.

    I really do miss visiting the US though. I would go to Buffalo a lot for day trips and that really is a wonderful city, and you can’t beat clothes shopping there. Not sure what it’s like with the tariffs, but I shopped last fall for clothes and got AMAZING bargains.
