A bunch of Roblox players (myself included) have been migrating to a different game called Polytoria due to Roblox's CEO (David Baszucki) fucking up a lot of stuff lately. So many players have been migrating in fact that Polytoria's servers are slowing and/or crashing, though devs are working to fix it.

Maybe I can agitate there? Maybe by bringing up that Baszucki's actions are an inevitability under Capitalism, and that he (like virtually every other CEO) only appeals to shareholders instead of the community.

Gotta love airplane travel and people who are sick but cannot be arsed to wear a mask for an hour or two because I will be spending my week sick

My Spanish is getting better every day, and I'm grateful for it. It's mainly because I'm consuming a lot of Spanish language content. I'm watching Pablo Escobar: el patrón del mal on Netflix (which is a good show), and get a lot of Spanish Instagram reels on my feed lately. And because of this, I catch myself thinking in Spanish more. The key to language learning is to expose yourself to the language daily. It's the same way a lot of us learned English.

And what it should really look like:

(Dutch) conspiracy nuts have been saying there is an elite group of people running human trafficking rings for their sick fantasies and I gotta admit they were right. Probably not about them being blood drinking reptiles but they sure as hell were right about some of the people involved lol.

The way American's talk about regime change is so insane. Random people with little to no geopolitical knowledge and absolutely no political experience, will flippantly say, "This is a great opportunity for regime change in Iran, we can't pass this up." Or, "I would love to see the Cuban regime toppled."

They talk as if they are strategizing military generals, in on the plan. Like bro, you are just some random American, how would any of this even benefit you?

Having a reasonable conversation on the topic can feel like a Sisyphean task.

Europeans are awfully loud about ICE and Trump while Frontex exists. Last week 380 people drowned in the Mediterranean.

you know what i'm just going to keep repeating "it's the cpv's birthweek" to myself until the anger abates. i doom and gloom too much on here, but i'm a hopeful fellow who just happens to be constantly driven insane. it's the cpv's birthday. the boy crying in that picture of the DHS agent with a gun is back home in cuba and has been for a while. china exists. what else is lovely? the sky and the sunlight and my friends, no matter what hardships torment me. a future whose arc bends to justice and a science that argues for that conclusion

Pro-Elon Conservatives have officially lost their fucking mind. They're going all in on the "He's just autistic, he didn't know any better" excuse. As if he's not a grown man with over 10 children and mutiple wives.

Billie Eilish dropping the US is a settler genocidal state on thr grammys was not on my bingo card but it is pleasant surprise.

Lately I got back into a video game, which did have one upside: I made some friends there.

The downside is it's a live service video game under late stage capitalism and that means it gets shittier with each update, but marketing presents it as an improvement (to be more specific, the updates are kind of like genie wish fulfillment, where like the players ask for a million bucks and they get crushed by a mass of deer). It's an (admittedly fucking tiresome) reminder that there is no real "escape" under capitalism. It is all an interconnected system. Can't just go off and chill for a while in an isolated part.

in the case of james craig anderson, a cousin of one of the fucking evil bastards that murdered him was a policeman in the rankin county torture incident. today i learned i guess or whatever, everything else i want to say is rancidly violent but totally justified

it's day nine hundred thousand of the rage. i'm certain it will end tomorrow (liar)

It won't surprise any latino that has been abroad but as it turns out, the ICE goons that murdered Alex Pretti last names, allegedly, were Ochoa and Gutierrez. Gusanos being the boots on the ground for gringo fascists as always.

oh i forgot last night :( HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF VIETNAM!!!

well, of course stuff’s been happening there with tô lâm + gaza 'board of peace' bullshit but let’s stay positive and focus on their history for bit. thank you for driving out the usamerican soldiers and winning, CPV! thank u for serving the vietnamese people. thank you, of course, to uncle ho chih minh for his socialist writings/legacy, one of the first revolutionaries who i felt great adoration for, who helped ease me into marxist-leninist theories—and let’s hope for some course correction in the new yr(?), vietnam :)

I don't really know where to put this, it's tangential to the Epstein case. So I'm spoilering it, but feel free to remove it.

I just thought someone might want some ammo if they ever run int one of those people from the Baltics.

From Mexico! We keep raising our voice for our Venezuelan comrades!
