I want them to live for _months_ wondering if or when the brownshirts are going to come and take their abuela away to God knows whatever fate is in store for her. I just don’t get that level of animosity. Maybe it’s the past erasure of a lot of my dad’s side of the family to a prior genocide that turns my stomach at the thought of such things rather than delighting in the suffering of others. Maybe it’s something else. But, holy shit, you’re coming across as a nasty, vindictive person with that. ---

There are alt med enthusiasts who drink their own urine for health reasons. “Aged” urine is said to be especially powerful. Haven’t seen any poop-eating devotees on social media yet, but that “movement” should manifest any day now. ---

Since Jett loves a government that only exists to push religious scripture, someone should do him a favor and send him to Afghanistan. He sure seems to hate America so he’d probably fit right in. ---

Bird flu material in eggs would still be legal and godly. ---

There was this dude named Tom Foley, who was speaker of the US House for five+ years, who hailed from scrublands Washington, until that Contract on America stunt. Washington used to be mostly OK, but the formula “people to the left, dirt to the right” seems to have taken hold. ---

The Cascades form a natural barrier that keeps most of them on their side of the state where they can’t bother us too much. As for the rest of them, well, there’s a reason the speed limit on I-5 goes up to 70 between Tumwater and Vancouver. ---
