Ah yes, the peak ADHD Leftist result

Results infographic from a fanmade Undertale-styled Soul Virtues Extractor, showing the top result as Kindness at 84%. Justice is the second highest virtue at 70%, followed by Perseverance at 66%, Bravery and Integrity tied at 61%, patience at 39%, and Determination at 27%.

This is otherwise known as ADHD.

Simon 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 (This is an old picture of *my* Simon, who passed in 2024 after nearly 18 excellent years)

A brown and white Jack Russell Terrier with minimal black markings around the eyes and nose rests on a blanket in the sun coming in from the window behind him, visibly sleepy.

I’m so tired of these grifting fucks

Gonna include the actual posts in question so people get the full context. …Not a good look to say the least. While I personally wouldn’t consider it biphobic specifically, it’s definitely annoying, problematic, & the aggressive defensiveness in later posts says a lot more than the original ask 😬

Anonymous ask on tumblr: “hey I just want to say I find it so wonderful and relieving when other XIV fans also see emet selch as a gay man. From the very first moment he walked on screen, the energy of “bitter old Hollywood theatre queen” was so strong and such blatant coding I never even had to consciously think about it, it was just a given, but lo and behold, I got into the fandom after catching up on the story, and found much to my shock that TONS of people are shipping him with their female wols??? I allow that fans in Japan (and maybe other places, idk) might see him differently because the cultural tells for queerness are totally different there, but I have to raise my eyebrows at the Americans playing the English version and still missing it. He’s literally an aging theatre enthusiast in a fur-lined robe who quotes Lauren Bacall and wears noticeable makeup, whose signature body language is either a snap or a limp-worsted wave over the shoulder, and they’re seeing someone who might like women? I just have to laugh, and yes, insert mandatory caveat that it isn’t that serious and there’s nothing wrong with how they’re playing barbies, but at the same time I genuinely don’t get how they aren’t seeing it. Which is an extremely long winded way to say, thank you for seeing the obvious with me. I don’t necessarily expect you to publish this because it IS kind of swinging a bat at a hornet’s nest and I doubt you want that kind of attention, but I just want you to know some of us also get it. Happy pride”

Response to anonymous ask: “Signing under every word. I hate to admit that I have to tone myself down and I hold back on talking about something I have extremely strong, bottled up feelings about, just hope one day I grow “big” enough to stop giving a shit, and finally speak my heart out. For now keeping on my gay grind and trying to gather more people that agree with the above. And sure, I’ll post it, it’s tumblr, so I expect people to behave, but my block button is ready anyway. Fandom (in general, fandom spaces) used to be the pink people in this comic. It used to be predominantly queer before 2020s. I used to feel safe and at home. Then this happened. I still could not make my peace with it.” [Four-panel comic. First panel has a group of gray cilia-shaped “people” on a blue background with straight faces staring at three pink cilia-shaped “people”; the gray group tells the pink three “you do not fit in here.” Second panel: the three pink “people” are shown in a small box with a yellow background atop the larger blue background, saying “okay we will make our own place”. Third panel: the gray group is still on the blue background and looks at the pink three inside the yellow box and says “why are you excluding us”, while the pink three say “oh no” in reaction. Fourth panel: the gray group has now squeezed into the smaller yellow box despite being much larger in number, and the pink three have been squeezed into the very bottom corner of their yellow box. The gray group is again saying to the pink three “you do not fit in here.”]

The end of the four-panel comic in the last screenshot is here, in addition to more text from the fragments artist: “if you try to twist this as, or believe those users who twist this as biphobia, that’s on you, and I have nothing to do with any bad faith reading of this post.” There are also several tags he has added to the post: replies, emet selch, emet-selch, I won’t be entertaining those who are taking this in bad faith and trying to fight back with biphobia labels, that just confirms how fucked up things are

One of multiple follow-up posts to the original ask: “also idk who needs to hear this, but being a gay man and supporting gay ships isn’t biphobia or misogynistic. You’re just grasping at straws and trying to use anything as ammo against gay men. You’re the problem.” There are also several tags added: if I was biphobic wouldn’t I exclude the red and violet from the rainbows that I paint all over the blorbos, or use the blue gay flag exclusively, you’re given eyes to see the entire rainbow all over my [account] and if you don’t use your eyes that’s on you

Alt text, brother.

Screenshot of a post on another social media site by Jerome Whalen, who is running for Congress in Massachusetts Congressional District 1. Reads:

Trump doesn’t care about long airport lines or deadly crashes on runways, because he’s got a private jet.

Trump doesn’t care about gas prices shooting up, because he’s never had to step out and fill a tank himself.

Trump doesn’t care about lives lost in war, because his silver spoon kept him far from the realities others were forced to face.

Billionaires are disconnected from working and middle class life. No connection means no empathy. And if they won’t learn it on their own, it’s on us to force the lesson.

Tax the rich. Break the oligarchy. Put real people in power. That’s how we take this country back.

This one was easy and super quick as a result, along with the other liberals in the comments backing up his bullshit

This is their account. No posts, no replies, no media or videos… just that list that actually just has a bunch of leftists on it. If it walks like a fascist’s sock puppet account and it talks like a fascist’s sock puppet account…

Account of the person who made a “MAGA & far right trolls” moderation list that actually just has a bunch of leftists on it; no posts, no replies, no media, no videos. Just the list.

If the medication or other treatment lowers the level of disability, the rating will be based on that lowered disability level. Oh by the way, that means you won’t be rated high enough for continued access to TRICARE after you separate, if you were ever going to be rated that high to begin with lol

Excerpt from the proposed regulation to turn the disability rating process for veterans into an even bigger joke than it already was. Highlighted/referenced section reads: “To ensure that disability evaluations are based on the actual level of functional impairment under the ordinary conditions of daily life, the medical examiner will not estimate or discount improvements to the disability due to the effects of medication or treatment, whether or not medication or treatment is included within specific rating criteria. If medication or other treatment lowers the level of disability, the rating will be based on that lowered disability level.”

This one makes me laugh a lot

The black tri Australian Shepherd is caught by surprise when his Jack Russell Terrier sister pops out from beneath the wood she is using for shelter and hiding, barking her head off. The Aussie’s eyes are wide and both dogs are pictured in mid-bark.

In fairness, he deserves it, because he had been trying to bite her coat off before she ran under the wood pile. I don’t know what his deal is with coats, sweaters, t-shirts, and the like. We’re working on it.

Karissa Barrows@sjbsmama· Jan 25

Someone yesterday requested pics of dogs playing in the snow today and I am nothing if not one to oblige

A black tri Australian Shepherd wearing a DayGlo yellow-colored jacket runs through deep snow with a big puppy smile on his face

That same black tri Australian Shepherd is seen from more of a distance, running towards his owner through the deep snow, still smiling

That black tri Australian Shepherd in the DayGlo yellow-colored jacket is still running through deep snow with a big ol’ smile, having the time of his puppy life

The Australian Shepherd’s slightly older sister, a 12-pound Jack Russell Terrier, is less enthused about being in snow several inches taller than she is and has taken shelter beneath large cuts of wood from a huge silver maple that was chopped down earlier in the year. She is wearing an orange puffer coat and her black and brown face and ears are dusted with snow.

The responses to this ridiculous post are SO goddamn good LMAOOOO

A Captain America meme in which he sits backwards in a chair in the middle of a brightly-lit hallway. Meme reads: “So. You posted without remembering your base sees through your bullshit now.”

Karissa Barrows@sjbsmama· Jan 8

It’s not backwards at all. It’s just not for you, and that’s okay. Or did you not bother reading everything I said, @benkuchera.bsky.social ?

Ben QPing my post to disagree but QPs and replies are disabled.

With Alt text, so we’re also nicer to the disabled homies:

Emailed press inquiry to Daniel Suitor and his response. Subject line: “NYT [New York Times] inquiry on Minneapolis ICE shooting video. Body says, “Hi Daniel, My name is Albert Sun and I’m a reporter at The New York Times. I’m looking at the video you posted on Bluesky of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis - just left you a voicemail as well. [URL link here to the posted video is here.] Did you take this video on the scene? Or who did? We’re looking to get permission to use the video and verify it. Thank you, Albert.”

Daniel’s response reads: “Albert, Thank you for your inquiry. I will not be speaking to the New York Times. You do not have permission to use the video. You all should’ve been nicer to my trans homies. Daniel Suitor, Attorney at Law.”

More evidence that bsky’s “age assurance” feature is bullshit: This app, as I’m currently in a red state, is saying my declared age is under 18. My DOB is set correctly to 1985. Last time I checked, that’s not <18. This is clearly trying to force me to “verify.” I refuse. Suck my dick, fascists.

Screenshot of Bluesky settings page. At the top, an informational notice reads “your declared age is under 18. Some settings below may be disabled. If this was a mistake, you may edit your birthdate in your account settings.”

My birthdate in my account settings is correct with my birth year of 1985.

I came across this on another website and had to bring it here after it was done slapping me across the face with one of Fox Mulder’s ceiling pencils (There was no credit available on that site as to the original poster or I would have shared their original post instead.)

White text in the same font used in “The X-Files” set against a plain black background which reads, “The fact that people need a dead man’s files to believe a thousand living women tells you everything about whose voices they value and whose they don’t.”

And nothing of value was lost.

Behold this magnificent creature & enjoy the momentary timeline cleanse. One single brain cell. No thoughts. Head empty. Belly full. In his lane. Skin clear. Crops watered. Field of fucks blissfully barren. Only the *slightest* concern his dogmom is once again pointing the phone camera at him

A black tri-color Australian Shepherd laying on his back on a dark brown leather couch, back legs splayed out and front legs extended up along the back of the couch. He is twisting his neck enough to look directly at the camera.

Mother-son snow day bonding activity. No I do not know why the kiddo decided this snowthing needed to be caked up, other than his response of “because it’s funny”

Odd looking snowthing holding up a middle finger. Torso says “fuck ICE”.

Spent some time today with two of my three favorite humans. 💜💜 (The third is out of town since it’s his dad’s year for Thanksgiving 😔😒) I’m their favorite, as you can see

Regina George “so you agree” meme that says, “So you agree seditious conduct, such as instigating a mob invasion of Congress as election results are certified, should result in a death sentence?”

Fck you, genocide-happy bsky mods. Free Palestine. Donate to this fund for the kiddo’s diabetes medicine and some food. gofund.me/9b4baf45d

“My 2-year-old son urgently needs diabetes medicine and proper food. The war destroyed our home and left us with nothing. We need $300 to keep him safe. Any support, even small, means hope and could save his life.” -fundraiser post from Mohammed Al Hatal in Gaza, who bsky has once again unfairly labeled as spam.

(YOOO LOOK WHO MADE IT🎉🎉) Did you hear? There’s a progressive, grassroots congressional candidate on the ballot in IL District 13! I’m so excited to proudly support Dylan’s campaign & I hope you’ll consider joining me! If you’re ready for a better future, check him out @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social

The date March 17th, 2026, is listed at the bottom of the announcement, which is when the Primary Election for the 2026 Midterms will take place and serves as the deadline for mail-in votes to be postmarked.

I am in quite a bit of pain after my surgery today but DAMN am I thrilled to see all these big wins across the entire board. What a fantastic day. Leftists like Dylan Blaha can & will win WITHOUT the Establishment. No more spineless bullshit! (This is an official campaign shirt I’m wearing btw)
