Screenshot of a post by Team Talarico quoting James Talarico saying national media never ask him about housing or prescription drug costs, only about trans athletes. He argues billionaires are the real minority harming the country, while trans and undocumented people each make up about 1% of the population.

In a drastic reversal, Trump has gone from embracing “the opportunity to build even more bridges” with Canada in 2017 to threatening to stop the opening of the Gordie Howe bridge until Canada “treats the U.S. with … Fairness and Respect.”

And it probably says something about me that I fact checked this. There are indeed no Denny's locations in Point Pleasant, WV.

repost of somebody's post in a forum called "Tell me you're neurodivergent" "My husband and I were at a two day horror movie marathon event at a local drive in theater this past weekend. Husband was wearing a novelty tee that says 'Mothman ate my entire ass at a Denny's.' "While we were waiting for food at the concession stand, a guy next to us read my husband's shirt out loud, and then said, with the straightest face imaginable, 'That's wrong.' "My husband made some response about yeah it's a little crass. "And then the dude replied, entirely earnestly, (paraphrased) 'I'm from outside of Point Pleasant. They don't have a Denny's. Your shirt is wrong. He couldn't eat your ass at a Denny's. They don't have one.' "Brilliant. As an autistic person, I have never heard a better ND response. A+ No notes."

The Fediverse can focus on praising what is good while also criticising what is bad. That's what makes us special. Other "social" networks use algorithms to hide the praise because only negativity brings traffic and ad click money. We are different. We can promote the good without risking being shadow-banned. Use that power. At least once a day. Deal? It takes some time to leave that pavlovian reflex of negativity behind. But at least try and you will enjoy the results :)
