** only gas station BELOW 34th Streetβ¦
I always thought about that. I live not far from the only gas station believe 34th Street in Manhattan β and boy, do they price accordingly. I always thought βit would be like taking a picture of their prices on ANY day, and pretending this is representative of prices in generalβ
I donβt own a car. So I generally donβt think about gas prices as Iβm riding around on my bike. But I was thinking the other day that higher prices for gas to deliver products to stores will be factored into the cost of those products, and push prices up
Also, I have a rule that I do not invite racists into my home β not even through TV. So you normalizing this racist maniac in livestreams, only makes me not want to watch your broadcast
Unrelated to this post, but I had to turn off your YouTube stream as I found myself getting stupider due to your decision to live-stream Trump blathering nonsense at goofy Shield America thing? PLEASE β small dose clips are bad enough, but do not platform livestream this deranged maniac
Ok. Not making sense of you, and itβs so off-topic. So letβs end here. I do wish you well in your journey to free yourself from being in a cult. I will think of you. You can do it. Good luck
People need to understand that Republicans donβt want us to vote. Itβs sad β but itβs true. We have to check we are registered. Check where to vote. Vote EARLY while we can. We canβt stroll up to the poll on Election Day, and assume they arenβt going to fuck around to stop us voting
Wasnβt saying you are in a cult, but if you feel that you are, it is possible. I hope you are able to free yourself from feeling that you are in a cult. I guess start by not believing everything that pops into your social media. I wish you luck
They told us they would prefer (or at best, would be ambivalent to) a criminal grifting racist sexual assaulting white man because they cannot believe a Black woman could possess any qualities that would make her a better option. They default to a white man, or simply donβt participate. Believe them
If you want to know what this country thinks about women in general, and Black women in particular, just look at people who say they saw no difference between Kamala and a criminal racist sexual assaulter. It may be subconscious, but it really is how they view a competent & qualified Black woman
Our culture is conditioned to not value women in general and Black women in particular. People may not be conscious that they are conditioned by our culture from birth. When someone says they see no difference between Kamala & Trump, I believe they really do feel that way β and and are OK with Trump
Ok. I wish feeling ok about making a mistake or being wrong about something was normalized. Lately I notice a byproduct of Trump era is people feel they have to be right about everything always, and blame someone else when they get it wrong while never just saying they made a mistake on something
Photo of Manhattan Cocktail in front of antique photos of men and their bikes
Bicycle weather approaching (but I do ride my bike all winter). Brunch indoors with this mid-1800βs classic β Manhattan cocktail, with: Rittenhouse rye, Carpano Antica Formula sweet vermouth, Angostura bitters, homemade brandied cherries I live in Manhattan, but my heart is in Brooklyn #cocktails
People spoke clearly that they would rather a criminal sexual assaulting white man than highly qualified Black woman. What should she say? βSorry you didnβt believe me, and opted to fixate on social media okey-doke agendas to put Trump back in officeβ?
Thank you for your honesty. Sometimes I feel like Trump has infected the culture in general to never admit you made a mistake. Double-down. Triple-down. Blame someone else. Your post just gave me some hope. Thank you β€οΈ
Thank you for your perspective. There are a lot of issues at play. Iβm worried about who Trump/Netanyahu will place in charge of Iran. Also, what resources Trump will take from Iranian people. I donβt believe this crook cares anything about Iranian people, beyond what benefits himself
With this scumbag, every accusation is a confession of what he has done, is doing, will do, or would do
Iβve not seen a single person say anything like βwell, shit β I fucked up my vote. Sorry.β One of the ways Trump has affected the culture in general, is never saying one was wrong about something. Never apologize. Double-down. Triple-down. Blame someone else
With this scumbag, every accusation is a confession of what he has done, is doing, will do, or would do
How much this country is conditioned to not value womenβ¦ The demons people in this country will choose β consciously and subconsciously β rather than elect a woman leader. Then the excuses they make to justify cultural conditioning that extremely qualified women are lesser than a vile man
The other day I saw someone here on bsky justify not voting for Kamala because she is a βwarmongerβ and βowned by Israelβ. People have a lot of reasons to explain away falling for the donβt-vote-for-Kamala-okey-doke. We ALL knew what Trump is β but people preferred that to a qualified Black woman
Screenshot of NYT βU.S. And Israel Attack Iranβ βTrump calls for Overthrow of Governmentβ. Trumpβs face is covered by the devil emoji
The other day I saw someone justify not voting for Kamala because she was a βwarmongerβ βowned by Israelβ. People fell for the donβt-vote-for-Kamala-okey-doke that put this demonic racist sexual assaulter in power to create hell at home and around the globe, but they will never accept responsibility
Just the other day, I saw someone here on Bluesky justify not voting for Kamala because she was a βwarmongerβ and βowned by Israelβ. There are people who fell for the donβt-vote-for-Kamala-okey-doke to put this demonic racist sexual assaulter in power to create hell at home and around the globe
I donβt know about Hungary β but I know in this country most are too addicted to cancel/delete these things. Amazon, Paramount, FB, IG, etc. Every time I tell someone I quit these things, they give me βreasonsβ why they βcanβtβ. People here willfully prop up oligarchs who fund our own demise
I donβt know if itβs βtheβ problem, but one problem I see is people feel too addicted to walk away. Delete X, FB, IG, (all Meta), Paramount, etc. When I left, people told me they βcanβtβ for βreasonsβ. If we werenβt so addicted, we could make these things worthless
Imagine being mad/disappointed at a hockey team for showing up to Trumpβs SOTUβ¦ While tuning in to watch the SOTU and invite Trump right into your home! π€¦ββοΈ The people who tuned in knew what Trump is, too. They are just like this hockey team β but minus the gold medals

Yep. Imagine getting mad/disappointed at a hockey team for showing up to Trumpβs SOTUβ¦ While tuning into the SOTU to welcome Trump right into your home! π€¦ββοΈ
Yeah. We all know what he is. And knowing this, people STILL invite him into their homes? We can point at Trump β but at some point people need to take ownership of the part they played in encouraging this
A sad fact about this countryβ¦ We all know Trump is a racist, liar, conman, was found liable for sexual assault, appears more frequently than Epstein in the Epstein Filesβ¦ And yet β knowing ALL this β a whole lot of people will STILL invite him into their home. Thatβs just what we are as a nation
