  • Not a purity test. Just a fact. Are democrats better than Republicans? Yes, that’s also a fact. But that does not change the correct definition of a political party. DEMOCRATS ARE NOT THE LEFT! Left of Republicans but very few actual left ideas make it to benefit the common person because democrats smother left ideas in the crib. Vote democrat (if living in deeply red states or swing states) but also protest unjust acts regardless of which party is currently in control. (even more so when it’s the party that you voted for.) I live in a deep blue state and vote green to try to pull the political spectrum left. I protest both sides for their crimes. I protest Biden for his direct support of genicide. I protest Trump for his many wrongs as well. We need to fight for the race to the top and not whomever clears the lowest bar possible.



  • I’m just saying that, maybe if you are a creator making content primarily watched by children, the trade off for making money (millions in this case.) off of our platform, is we get to monitor your communications with said audience on our platform? It’s like saying a banker who uses their work email to coordinate a crime. My work has email monitoring that looks for financial crimes because surprisingly people are dumb enough to use work email for elicit activities. Yes his messages to individuals are “private” but should they be when in a position of power? He messaged a minor through twitches chat (twitch is essentially his whole job) and twitch has NO safeguards to prevent abuse?!

    This! I used to tell people all the time I could smell some ant hills from several yards away. Fire ants smell like death. The larger and more aggressive species in my area smell more than the more benign ants. I’m sure it’s a warning to other animals to stay away.










  • I agree that it’s a decision that should be made by the individual and their support network. (family, friends, doctors and psychologists.) And I’m behind those that need to change to salvage their mental health. I had to get lasik when I was 19 because I was having vision induced migraines. The recommendation is to wait until late to mid 20s to get the surgery, but my doctor knew I couldn’t wait until my body was fully “developed”. Your situation is far more complicated but I understand. It’s none of my business what you do with your body! End of story ʘ‿ʘ
