A 22 yr old in my org got drunk tuesday night and kinda shit on the fact that I'm running a community cleanup for our chapter. Said something along the lines of "i didn't join up to pick trash." Which really bothers me and it took me a while to figure out why. The whole point of the community cleanup is that we're returning to the neighborhoods where we knocked doors for A4 to help clean up their streets and provide material improvement for free in an effort to build inroads with those neighbors.
Like... if your socialism doesn't include picking uo trash, I'm guessing it also doesn't include doing the dishes, babysitting, or anything else that is important but not prestigious. Idk man, fuck off with that shit. You'll pick up trash and you'll like it until you understand why picking up trash isn't anyone's job but your own. I hate that attitude. If helping and doing activism was always fun and visible and impressive, everyone you know would already be doing it.
you gotta be able to say "die"
you gotta be able to say "suicide"
you gotta be able to talk about "sex"
they're uncomfortable topics, YEAH for SURE
because LIFE is uncomfortable. Death and suicide and sex and pain are straight up going to happen. not having words for the way it discomforts you doesn't make it more comfortable, it just makes you less able to reach out about it.
even more vital, you gotta be able to say words like "rape", "abuse", "queer" or "racist". cause we fought fucking hard to name those experiences. to identify "rape" as distinct from "sex" and "racism" as distinct from "acceptable behaviour" and "queer" as distinct from "invert"
like the function of communication is not to minimise immediate discomfort. we gotta be able to talk about stuff that's hard or sucks or causes difficult conversations.
This is what's so goddamn terrifying about the Internet slowly collapsing into the same 3-5 websites--if Facebook deprioritizes you for saying "sex" and TikTok shadowbans you for saying "suicide" and Twitter X locks your account for saying "racism" we've lost a lot more than just the culture of the old weird internet
are you, perchance, into bdsm?
im just tired
you could be just tied
They seriously fired the guy because the shitstain yelling racial slurs threatened to sue them for defamation? Someone posting a video of you yelling slurs isn't defamation! He had no goddamn case, but they folded because they'd rather fire someone than risk a lawsuit. Fucking cowards.
Hey, they have a complaint form in case you want to tell them how you feel out this issue. They should issue a statement apologizing to the employee they fired :) Don't you think :) They should probably pay him compensation in the form of a fat check.
Defamation?! He would have no way to win a defamation lawsuit against Five Guys.
Making a false statement about someone is defamation. Posting a video of someone's own words and actions is the opposite of that. No way Five Guys was worried he had a case. Which makes me feel that they probably fired the employee because they support the actions of the racist Fascist in the video. Appalling.
five guys along with whole foods was givin cops free food during the baltimore riots 💁🏾
People once said the same about gloves. Washing our hands before treating patients. Fresh needles every time. We can change.
you know what really gets my goat?
el chupacabra
I’m sorry!? What?!
Whoa, chupacabra’s a millennial?
You may have heard of Nader: he is a 17 year-old running a tumblr account for the campaign of his brother, Abd Al-Salam. Their shared account is @abdalsalam1990. It’s horrible that anyone is going through this, but for someone so young to have to help support his family through genocide—that just breaks my heart. So when Nader asked me to adopt his family’s campaign, I couldn’t say no.
Like with other palestinian GFM campaigns, this money is used by a large extended family to buy basic necessities. It may seem like the campaign has received a lot, and it has, but for a big family under siege, “a lot” of money doesn’t last very long. Can you help support this young man and his family with a donation or a reblog? Anything helps. His family’s campaign is #4 on the GazaVetters spreadsheet.

“Baikal Zen”: Rocks that have fallen on the ice of Lake Baikal are heated by sunlight and emit infrared rays that melt the ice below. Once the sun is gone, the ice becomes solid again, creating a small support for the rock above.
scrolling down I was like “oh what a cool idea! someone skipped stones on a lake and took high speed photographs to get these pictures where it looks like the water is holding up the stone which is kinda was does happen a-oh, no. nope. it’s just Fucking Lake Baikal up to its god defying nonsense again”
middle aged lady on my bus just called someone's partner "your whimsical idiot boyfriend" over the phone . with sincere frustration might I add
