The war on Christmas was an inside job all along

A tale at least as old as the CIA

There's also the whole "return to the good ol days" bullshit they like to do, which I guess is the core of conservatism

It has a Christmas song & dance and at least a couple of other Christmas scenes

I think you're doing great for a sandwich

I'd mostly just be shocked a politician followed through on campaign promises

If you can get your hands on some Rick Simpson Oil (RSO), it'll probably help a lot more than smoking or edibles. Hard to find if you're not in a legal country/state, but very worth it if you can.

Others have said similar things, but TikTok/Instagram/YouTube accounts posting short daily "best of" videos or something like that would work well if enough users coordinate to boost the accounts. Could probably even monetize and fund the site or buy drugs.

I don't even think it would be that hard. Pick a format and stick to it, use AI voiceover and captions, and just do slideshows of memes, funny comments, etc. Slowly include Hexbear jokes, explain the lore, drama...people love this kind of shit. There are literally millions of commies on TikTok. I've seen fullblown leftists with over a million followers.

Dems would rather lose to Trump (who is supposedly a danger to democracy) than betray their corporate overlords or disrupt the status quo.

I do the same thing. I've found that I often am dealing with external stimuli that I just never considered to be part of the problem (very late diagnosis).

So as an example, sometimes when I'm working at my computer I find myself getting frustrated and then slowly start talking to myself in a very similar way as to what you've described here. It's kind of like I don't realize it's happening until I'm already 10 minutes in and then I'm experiencing a lot of executive dysfunction, etc.

Anyway, the point here is that I started analyzing the relationship between my behavior and my environment more after realizing I was autistic. I noticed that I was actually being overstimulated by normal, everyday things and not recognizing the overstimulation. So maybe the washing machine is on and it's a little too hot/cold, my body hurts, I have to pee, hungry, the lights are bright, etc. This shit all adds up and then I also have work I'm dealing with (I hate it so much), so yeah having a meltdown is inevitable a lot of the time.

I guess maybe try to think bigger about what you consider external stimuli and see if maybe that makes a difference in how you think about it. Generally I find that there might be one thing I focus on, but it's really 5+ things that just aren't as intense on their own

I've not done it myself, but I'm pretty sure you can configure Cookie AutoDelete or similar extensions to block everything except specific cookies for any given domain. I don't think you could accomplish it with just a file saved locally, the browser isn't generally able to read local files without using an extension.
