Magician [he/him, they/them]
Forcing people back to work during the pandemic didn’t do it, taking part in genocide didn’t do it, but this skit is what will have Biden remembered as a villain.
I hate how Colbert introduces this nightmare. And then the video of course references trump.
“trump is using hitler’s language”
Like it’s a warning? It’s not meant to be funny - just another thing for libs to remember shitty talking points that barely held to in 2020.
I also feel this anxiety in other parts of my life too.
I try to reply to everyone and I’m afraid it makes me come off as intense or competitive (like I need to get in the last word) when I’m really just trying to say I heard and read what you said. Or I try to make it clear I’m not upset with something or ignoring them on purpose.
My parents didn’t pay much attention to me growing up, and I think that’s something that affects the way I interact with people. I don’t want people to feel like I’m ignoring them or that I don’t care, so I try to reply when I can.
On the other hand, that’s overwhelming, and honestly untenable. Otherwise, I would reply to my texts, emails, etc.
I don’t think many people are built for all the ways we communicate these days.
"First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;” who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season.”
