just learned that jean-jacques rousseau was so deeply deeply obsessed with being spanked - such a spank maniac if you will, that he used to drop trou and sprint backwards ass first at unsuspecting women on the off chance their first instinct would be to spank his bare ass
i know this because he published it in his biography. he was an extremely influential philosopher and this is his story as he chose to share it
The world is a rich tapestry.
i’m glad everyone who’s reblogged this has tagged this w/ either #me or #same
The funniest part is the calm music in the background
The mii at the top is just fucking staring at them as they make this weird, inhuman sound.
“average person has 3 friends" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person has many friends. Matt Murdock, who lives in a cave & has no friends, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
[image: daredevil comics panel of just an internal narration box that says “I should live in a cave and have no friends.”
“do you have a boyfriend yet?”
“when are you gonna get a job?”
“what are you gonna do with your life?”
The CEO of Carl's Jr. and Hardee's wants to test a fully-automated location that cuts out social interaction.
There go your low skill jobs, dummies. “Raise the minimum wage, they said.”
He absolutely can afford it, but if he pays them higher, he won’t make as many hundreds of millions of dollars. Greed is not an excuse.
Fast food CEO’s do not make “hundreds of millions of dollars”
Lmao and insinuating that, even if he did, others are somehow entitled to it just because he makes a lot is ridiculous.
You wanna make “millions”? Go start a company, grow it. Sell something and make that money. Don’t bitch just because you aren’t getting rich flipping burgers. You know how many companies fail? God forbid some of them become successful, and the people who own them enjoy that success.
@prolifeprogressive, nobody is entitled to a wage. If this CEO wants to automate a store, that’s entirely his choice. Nobody is entitled to employment by him.
I would disagree. I believe that as a human being, you should be guaranteed a basic right to a certain standard of living. People working multiple minimum wage jobs deserve better than near-poverty.
It’s his business, so he can do what he wants.
But all good and decent people can do what they want as well.
We can all choose never to go to Hardee’s or Carl’s Jr. ever again.
The poor food chain boasting about record profits somehow can’t afford to pay a livable wage.
That’s about $2,182.50 per HOUR.
Or $4,539,600 a year.
But, no, for sure, he can’t afford to pay more than minimum wage.
And to everyone bitching that these people deserve what they’re paid: you realize that your tax dollars make up the difference, right? You realize that these people barely make enough to make ends meet, let alone get further job training and find a better career, and that most of them rely on government assistance programs to get by, right?
Or are y’all really as dumb as you sound?
-paying your employees a living wage should be the most basic operating cost of your business
-instead, corporations—who make millions and even billions of dollars in profit a year— shift the financial burden of keeping their employees alive onto taxpayers. taxpayers who are often taxed at higher rates than the corporations who make millions and even billions of dollars in profit a year.
-angry about this, taxpayers could just vote to stop paying for welfare and let the old, young, disabled, undereducated, and discriminated-against starve to death
-but people starve to death pretty slowly, actually
-and people tend to resort to criminal activity when the alternative is starving to death.
-so now there’s a lot of crime. people’s taxes are going to go to dealing with that, because people don’t like crimes to happen to them. so the people who were starving and then doing the crimes are now shot or in jail, where the corporations that make weapons (for police to kill people with) and the corporations that make jails (to use prisoners as slave labor) all get plenty of government (tax) money on top of their millions and billions of dollars of profit… off of people who were never given the chance to support themselves honestly in the first place. because this game’s been fucking rigged.
-or we could just look at the millionaires that say they can’t afford to pay their workers enough to eat, and recognize who the actual parasites in this system are.
What’s funny is that this is a serious discussion topic. I’m torn between very opposite viewpoints that are both very valid. A person who creates a product or service and sells that product or service successfully deserves to be compensated for their time and effort. Most of the time these products and services are very difficult to produce or provide and the early stages the business goes through to finally become profitable are extremely expensive and time consuming. They operate at a loss for a while then eventually turn things around or fail. The more you grow the more you need people to do the tedious and less conceptual work. And they should be paid fairly. You, as the owner of the business who started it from the ground up knows exactly what each position entails and how much effort is put into it. You know what it’s worth to your company. The problem comes when the people who understand what is fair for a specific position are not the ones making the deciding for that position. They pay the position less and earn more for themselves because now it looks like they made the company more profitable. This goes on up the line until it reaches the top and ceos are making millions with very little effort.
Another problem(which I believe is the underlying problem that drives this issue) lies in corporations but that’s a whole mess in itself.
Tl:Dr owners of businesses deserve to make a lot of money because they built the company. Workers deserve to be paid a decent wage because they keep the company running and give the owner the time to expand and become more profitable.
Holy fuck. I never really understood how they caught birds before, I assumed they had to sneak up on them.
How was this even caught on camera?
did that cat fucking put the thing in its mouth in midair so it could land on its feet
Did you know that pound for pound, house cats are THE most efficient land predators?
Cats are better than you.

what the fuck ethan
I wish i had a context for this. But I really dont.
I was all ready to “um, actually” this, but, um, actually there’s about 3-4 grams of iron in a person, which x400 is 1.2-1.6kg, which is a smallish but not unreasonable sword. So. Math checks out.
How would you extract the iron, though? The more practical solution would be to kill a mere hundred men, then mix 1 part blood with 3 parts standard molten iron, imo. Cheaper and faster, while still retaining the edge that only evil magic can give you.
Or, you could just make the sword of iron, and then use the blood to temper the blade.
1.2 to 1.6 kilograms is a perfectly reasonable large sword. Your average longsword was 1.1–1.8 kg and I don’t even remember if that’s including the weight of the hilt, guard, and pommel or just the blade. Your more classic “knight sword” was a mere 1.1 kilograms on average; the blood of 400 men is more than enough.
This is using the comparatively crappy metallurgy of medieval Europe and their meh iron swords. Move east to, say, contemporary Iran and make a scimitar using high carbon steel (~2%) for a .75 kilogram blade and you only need the blood of about 225 men.
So putting my thoughts in on this… because how could I not.
So you’ve exsanguinated your 400 guys to get the iron for your sword. Cool. But now you have 400 bodies lying around.
Why not put those to good use and cremate them. Use the carbon from those 400 bodies (you won’t need all of them) and now you can make a nice mid-high carbon steel sword.
Now you have a sword forged with the blood of your enemies AND strengthened with their bones.
Tumblr is all about dismantling oppressive power structures with the help of a sword forged from the blood and bones of your defeated enemies
I was informed by a very tiny child in the registration line at this convention that if I turned Flowey’s happy face sideways, it would say “equals banana.”
