i'm trying to find what they (project 2025) are intending to rename health and human services. don't find it at the moment but it's definitely some orwellian bullshit. "ministry of life" or something.

edit - department of life

i'm not sure i would call this hilarious.

and i will see it repeated endlessly online over the next several years, paired with a lot of "serves them right" style comments.

it doesn't help women or anyone else.

this is not the way forward.

fucking gross.

edit - i work with dv victims/victims of abuse. tell me why your "lol comment" is any better than the shit women tell me every day they hear from their abusers?

which truth is that, that no one hates women like other women?

look at the current climate, i see a lot of woman-hating from all sides, including supposed allies on the left looking for a scapegoat. the oversimplified victim-blaming of dumping our president-elect at the feet of women (again) demonstrates very little understanding of gendered power dynamics and very little effort to build coalition.

to this i would add the threads blaming racial and ethnic minorities, the poor, and the poorly educated.

do you want less suffering in the world, or are you no better than the right in looking for someone to blame, and someone whose suffering you can enjoy because, "they asked for it, they voted for it, they deserve it?"

as i just said in another comment, it scares me to see this shit AGAIN.

this narrative is not making women any safer!

i really love seeing this narrative again. i watched it last time he was elected, now i'm watching it again. it's the left's own brand of mysogyny, and it's not making women any safer.

there was a story here recently about a lot of scamming happening on truth social. so yeah.

i remember that post, was actually hoping to find it again as there had been some great recommendations! glad you mentioned it here.

i would absolutely try this.

i eat a LOT of kraut, probably five days a week. also enjoy sardines and mayo on toast with capers. followed by kraut, which pairs well with the salty capered dregs left in the sardine tin.

i sent it to my teenagers. i see what they're up to.

profit

yeah, honestly f this thread. i went from smiling to wondering why i bothered to even look at lemmy today. ☹️

there's gotta be something nice to look at instead!

ut = hook 'em, a&m = gig 'em

this makes me irrationally angry. who thought this was a clever idea?!

the domestic oil industry employs more than a couple hundred people. and i don't think most people are ready to support a policy that sounds like "i want to take your job, the jobs of your friends and family, and destroy your town." they aren't going to vote to support progressive climate policy unless there is a solution to their very real concerns.

edit for clarification - i don't think most of the people employed in that industry or in communities it supports are ready, etc.

Regenbogen

he's a parent.

probably after 9/11, but i already had questions as a kid connected to the cold war.

i would add tomatoanus for speedruns. really appreciate that he makes a point to remind people to be kind to themselves.
