People keep saying “did we learn nothing from Covid?” and what the ruling class learned is that the masses will happily engage in the politics of disposability when it comes to public health so here we are. Enjoy.
Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.
I have been getting my news almost exclusively from Twitter for a couple years now, and I think I'm going to uninstall it, but first does anyone have any recs for where else to keep up with wtf is going on?
This is *insane.* Even if you are too tired to follow the news you have to understand this. The Louisiana governor has *suspended an active congressional election with 42k votes already cast* — it's insane.
@DemocracyDocket This is some bullshit. If you are a Louisiana voter there is a recall petition being launched against Landry. This is tyranny. They are trying to steal your vote. Google Louisiana Landry Recall petition. You have to sign it in person, but this is time to stand up to this bullshit
assisted suicide is one of those things where i very strongly agree in theory but in practice seeing people be told “well no we won’t cover this treatment for your disease but you CAN kill yourself” is absolutely fucking heinous
Every now and then I remember Tim Walz’s “they’re weird” campaign and how close the dems were to actually shifting the way people perceive the right in a very real way and then they just…stopped
France made this wastefulness illegal cause it’s cruel and only causes more waste issues. Any food market or restaurant over 400 square meters has to donate all their good unsold food to charities and are fined if they do anything like this. That law should be applied everywhere
i do like to think about how Film Bro as a stereotype did used to have like actual meanings. kinda guy who only ever watched Nolan & Tarantino, annoying. now it's just used to insult anybody who watches stuff that isn't marvel lol
