as the “p” in pterodactyl or the “o” in opossum are silent, I would like to argue that the word 🤠howdy is accompanied by a silent cowboy hat emoji at all times as well
Art is inherently political. Not recognizing that disqualifies you from engaging with it in a meaningful way.
There’s no such thing as being “neutral” that’s just living in conformity and ignorance
You need to understand that this is by design. Working-class people used to be shockingly literate. The rich and powerful have built a society where most folks are addicted to screens because mass literacy threatens them. They want you to be stupid. We resist them by reading.
Trevor Noah: " It feels like New York has, like many cities in the world, fallen into the trap of fixing what needs to be fixed for the wealthy, and then sort of ignoring or pushing aside the problems that affect the poor."
Zohran: "I mean, think about when you fly. We have made it such a difficult experience to go through TSA that there's now a financial incentive to sign up for a separate program that can move you through it quicker. We have monetized the dysfunction."
Impossible to fathom not just the personal possessions and memories destroyed with these streets, but the amount of history and art lost forever from one of the oldest areas of civilization. Pieces of our story as a human species erased in the name of settler colonialism
I do think it's insane DOGE ultimately cut, nearly exclusively, the government's cheap, inredibly high ROI projects (foreign aid, NSF, CDC, etc.) while leaving literally everything that actually costs money untouched.
a question for the cis women that believe the ruling of the Supreme Court is a good thing for women
What do you think is going to happen when male police officers accuses you of being trans just to legally to get your knickers off ?, do you see how this harms all women ?
Some of y’all forget the reason we have food safety regulations is because companies used to do things like adding chalk to spoiled milk so it looked normal.
Regulations don’t exist because governments enjoy them. They exist because pure unadulterated capitalism would kill us.
literally everyone deserves to go out for dinner, buy coffees, wear quality clothing and have fun experiences whilst also being able to afford rent, groceries, bills & have a lil left over for savings no matter what job they do. why is that so absurd to some people?
“ugh you poors just want government handouts” yes. what the fuck? why wouldn’t we want that? we’re at a point in human history and advancement where we can give everyone handouts and help them live happy lives why the FUCK aren’t we doing that????
People saying “well what did she think would happen” are the ones we need to weed out from society man. She expected the driver to have some basic empathy for life. What did she do that warranted her death?
