Exiting the stage. Now that he and McConnell (appear to be) kaput gone, will there be “special elections”? Oh gawd, there will also be one of their state funerals. Here come the public arse-kissing posts from the parasites. Just – NO MORE!
No space between ! and the P. That said, this is cringeworthy. I would share on X and ask for some help sleuthing with my Anon friends but, well, see below why I cannot do that tonight. C E N S O R S H I P.
FOr now – this is all I got in terms of the punctuation comm above:
And is it also this? KING QUEEN
Q post – one of only 4 – that comes up when you type in LINDSEY GRAHAM in the search bar: 4241
Yup. And my wonderful co-op is getting away from local meats and going f’ing corporate – and charging the corporate price. Price hike of over $2/lb in one fucking year. I looked at my grocery receipt tonight and went numb. My girl wanted to read it, so I passed it off to her silently. “HOLY SHIT MOM THIS IS INSANE!” she said, looking at me, eyes wide, patting me on the shoulder gently, getting a big ‘ole taste of current financial reality.
When I told my girl about Rachel Handler, she put that together with this:
Was it something I said? 😁
i forgot I have some on hand:
This is true. If I feel safe, good luck getting me to be quiet. 😂
Auditory processing issues.

WHY DO SO MANY AUTISTIC PEOPLE USE SUBTITLES FOR EVERYTHING… even in English?
Because people think subtitles are just for deaf people or foreign shows.
For a lot of us autistic folks, that’s not it.
We can hear you just fine. The problem is processing.
Hearing words is only step 1.
Your brain then has to:
- Cut out background noise
- Organize the sounds
- Turn them into meaning
- Do it all in 0.2 seconds
For many of us, that last part is the hard one. It takes longer. It takes more energy.
This is what it actually feels like:
- The delay: I heard every word you said. But my brain didn’t understand the sentence until 3 seconds later.
- The buffering: You’re already on your next point while I’m still loading the first one.
- The replay: I have to run what you just said through my head again before it makes sense.
- The overlap: If you talk fast, or over someone, or there’s noise, I lose you completely.
Subtitles give us a cheat code.
Now the words aren’t just sound. They’re also text.
Two ways in instead of one. It’s way easier to keep up.
And then there’s the sound thing.
It’s not “super hearing.” It’s all hearing.
The fridge. The AC. The light buzzing. Someone chewing. Traffic. The table next to us.
None of it fades into the background. It all fights with your voice for attention.
Subtitles don’t fix that. But they take some pressure off.
My brain doesn’t have to work as hard to decode speech, so it can actually spend that energy on understanding you.
So for a lot of us, subtitles aren’t a vibe.
They’re access.
For TV, movies, TikToks, and real conversations — even in our own language.
