The 2025 Trivial Drivel Thread

Is this a family reunion?

Yes, about 17 will be there today. Just a small one.

This guy cracks me up. I actually learned about him in The NY Times this weekend of all places. He’s been mocking our county anonymously (think Bridgerton if you watched it) but revealed himself to the Times. He lives here…and does a good job writing about the cities and vibe (for better or worse).

Just probably pissed off most of my town on FB. Somebody got grazed by a bullet yesterday in our downtown area and the community is fucking up in arms over it. “Gangs in town!”. “Call ICE!”. “Must be people coming over from Oakland!”.

I just told them that….”just say you’re an entitled racist without actually saying it”.

Fuck ‘em.

Ooohhhhh they gonna be big mad, girlie.

Crickets. I guess I broke the thread, lol.

Oh well. The reactions were disgusting. A guy was grazed by a bullet and all of a sudden the town has gone to hell and it’s infested by Latin gangs. *eyeroll*

Fucking fucks

I also wanted to say that I apologise for not being in here much. I am hoping to now be back regularly. It has been so much shit going down here where I live. I have been working my arse off. So happy I got to come in here tonight and post without being exhausted. I tried to get in here for a couple of days now but each time I would be tasked with another thing and by the time I get to 'me time', I'm spent.

No apology necessary, Aussie! I'm always happy to see you when you have time for us and when you don't I go looking for you.

All this work I have been a part of has been massive. But because it's politics it's murky. I'm in it for making the world a better place, others are in it for ego and enriching themselves. When you have people in it for themselves you cannot win, so we lost. It's devastating, like you guys, where I live, people will die.

Aussie, why would nearly 40% of the population have such a significant break from reality when it comes to trump?
