 "there has been a tremendous shift in enthusiasm, attitudes, and indeed poll numbers, both on the Democratic side and among the fascists, who are suddenly caught pants down fucking the furniture on the deck of the Titanic" (ETA, this pull quote is not the thesis, but it was too excellent to not pull, & if it draws in readers, great) Hats off @VickyACAB https://all-cats-are-beautiful.ghost.io/feeling-good-doesnt-require-the-democrats/ 8 comments
 @seachanger well she is my sister so she knows what she's signing up for when i send her shit, at least sort of @inquiline every year the gap between my leftist friends and normie friends grows wider, to the point where I just avoid politics for the most part with normies. idk where even to start anymore @seachanger Yeah. Birth order plays a role here; on some level she is primed to at least indulge me a little bit because Big Sister. But... we're also less close than we used to be because she went hard Back To Normal in the pandemic so that's been weird and sad @inquiline I often fantasize about doing blog posts specifically designed to span that info gap, short and easy to read and digest and funny etc but for some reason I just… don’t  @seachanger I sometimes feel similarly, and I'm worried about it. Any left vision or project needs the "normies"! I try to exercise my ability to express ideas in plain common-sense language so you don't gotta have read Marx or anything to get it; Sanders and AOC are good at this. @inquiline  @inquiline “yeah, we know, but stop killing our vibe” Well said- Most of this essay is well read and makes reasonable points, but now just ain’t the time. After November, then go at it, but for the next hundred odd days, better to be frenemies and ensure Small Hans faceplants hard 😆 |

I just sent this essay to my sister who is A Normie and then I was like... does she know about the couchfucking?
I'm *pretty sure* she does? It was on tv
