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.

[Prof. Hanna Kienzler ���� 🇵🇸 @HannaKienzler]

Diese Headline ist das Allerletzte. Israel gönnt sich und den seinen eine "Atempause" nach der Durchführung eines Genozids gegen die Palästinenser, des Tötens hunderter Zivilisten im Libanon, des Baus illegaler Siedlungen in der West Bank und eines Angriffskriegs gegen Iran. WTF!

"why is a German talking about US politics"

> Trump starts a war that makes my gas prices 2€+/L
> Social Media controlled by US tech companies who push anti-trans propaganda
> AfD uses MAGA Republicans as an example and wants ICE in Germany

The fuckups of the US affect us all.

I’m all for sex positivity but that also means acknowledging having no sex drive & not wanting to have sex with the person you like is PERFECTLY normal.

This is the rhetoric that gets asexual folks correctively raped (& is why 80% of ace folks have experienced sexual violence).

This is literally what my students say when they get busted using AI. “I didn’t use it to write my paper just for brainstorming, outlining, and editing.” Yeah that’s most of what writing is.

Das, was Dilan sagt.

[pagliacci the hated 🌝 @Slatzism]

so they decided to make a character who is canonically extremely unpleasant to be around, unhygienic, poor, and literally obsessed to the point of violent rage with a white woman he wanted to fuck, black.

fascinating.

@austinoutloud media literacy is dead lol

Yes they do. All the time.

Abusive men aren't fake men. This is a transparent effort to distance yourself but it's just 'Not All Men' repackaged.

President of Israel, a non-NATO country, tells a NATO country how best to serve global Zionism.

this little event caused more outrage than israel committing genocide.

"By the way, there he was, martyred at 86... Man, are the virgins gonna be disappointed"

Jon Stewart makes a sexual joke, invoking a common Islamophobic trope, about the murder of Ayatollah Khamenei, who he refers to as a "fucking murderous dictator". That's not comedy, that's racist imperialist propaganda.

When these are the so-called "leftist" Americans, during a war they supposedly oppose to, how can anyone expect people NOT to hate the US of Assholes?

[Shai @shairondriel]

It’s terrifying that at any moment any country in the global south can get bombed and the rest of the world won’t even blink. I can’t even imagine a city as beautiful as Tehran being bombed, yet to the West it’s just another West Asian city on fire

NOW - Germany's Merz supports U.S. embargoing Spain, claims it's to "convince" them to increase NATO spending.
