God, they always go for the arts and humanities and I’m so fucking tired. All you guys see is money, all you care about is profit and gain and power. We need more artists, musicians, writers, dancers. We need more educators, therapists, philosophers-people who UNDERSTAND people.
"The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which."

Doctor: you shouldn’t take Ibuprofen everyday. It can damage your liver.

How come we don't have separate medical facilities for contagious and non contagious issues? Like, if I'm coming in for chronic back pain why am I in the same waiting room as someone with flu symptoms? Wouldn't it be smarter to have separate places for such different needs? /Gen
Seeing people argue against a 32 hour work week is insane. Y’all need hobbies, friends, sunlight, literally anything outside of work. Life is not supposed to be just work until you die. We really will never revolt because some of y’all are way too brainwashed.
They say we should never meet our heroes, but my 93 year old grandmother ends all her phone calls with “Okay, I’m done talking to you now” then hangs up, and honestly that’s pretty heroic
Former Canada PM Jean Chrétien: "Never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness. We bow to no one." #cdnpoli
Someone has left this note - and this lighter! - at the Halifax grave of Maj.-Gen. Robert Ross, the British military man who burned down the White House.
If you want a new frame within which to understand why the whole world seems utterly miserable now, I'll give you one: we're quietly in WWIII while still being in a pandemic of a virus that damages the brain *and* a climate catastrophe all at the same time.
HAHAHAHA. Master class trolling.
They’re sitting there explaining how wonderful everything is and Bourdain immediately asks the question nobody in that room wants asked:
Wonderful for who?
Who cooks the food? Who cleans the houses? Who does all the shit that makes your beautiful comfortable life possible?
“You’re living off the labor of a repressed underclass.”
You couldn’t choreograph this shit any better.
VERY annoying that we realize children need a summer break and several vacations a year because they attend school, but we think it makes sense for adults to work 40 hours a week all year and probably get 2–3 weeks off in a whole year if you’re lucky.
