  • But… They’re right? The NWS did send out a warning shortly after 1AM. It was local emergency officials who dropped the ball and didn’t pass on the warning until 7AM.

    Is everyone just too far in their bubbles now that they reject whatever actually happened in favor of whatever narrative their side of the internet made up?

    I hate it here.









  • 18-25 has always, and will always be, the demographic with the lowest voter turnout. By a significant margin. Nearly every election, people seem to get this idea that “This time it will be different! The youth are really fired up this time! It’s important, so I’m sure they’ll turn out!” And then the election happens and they never even break 50%.

    It’s not a messaging problem, or an outreach problem. There is essentially nothing that can change it. The issue is, and say it with me; 18-25 has always, and will always be, the demographic with the lowest voter turnout.








  • Let’s say my family is massively in debt. All the other members of my family are trying to find work, or going to local food banks, or planning a budget.

    Meanwhile, I am using my time to scrounge in thrift stores and rub every lamp I can find to try to find a genie and magically wish everything better.

    You may think my actions are useless, and a waste of time, and that I’m childish for believing it will accomplish anything; but I’m “still doing something as opposed to sitting around” and that makes it OK, right?
