doomsday looks like the absolute culmination of flashy bullshit and everything marvel has been rightfully torn apart for. this movie is going to be 27 hours long and give people epileptic seizures with their nonsense.

#i’m not gonna lie yelena fighting […] looked pretty damn cool but even that is just reheated nachos from x2 or whatever #all i care about is that sam and bucky seem to have made up #this trailer told me literally everything i need to know and now i am freeeeeeee #marvel //#wank //#pyro talks #p.s. that ending bit is not a joke it’s so rapidly flashing and big bright action scenes

I’m reading this book about the changing arctic and the author stayed with the Nunamiut people of inland alaska for a while and talked to this high school kid who was like “ugh I hate going to school in the spring I wish I was hunting caribou” and I thought that was charming. you often hear about people who are devoted to preserving their traditional culture and knowledge but it’s rare to hear about someone who’s invested in the old ways out of pure teenage selfishness. school is lame and hunting caribou is awesome

#book is frostlines by neil shea btw #^from op #nunamiut teen during caribou season 🤝 white teens in the midwest during deer hunting season #WE ARE MORE ALIKE THAN WE ARE DIFFERENT!!! AND OUR DIFFERENCE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

note: some places, especially places that receive federal funding, may ask you for your disability status, gender, race, etc, but it will specifically say “this information will not be shown to the interviewers” and you will always have an option to say “choose not to say”. the idea is to make sure those places are not being discriminatory in their hiring practices. you may not want to give this information and that’s also fine. those questions should never be brought up in interviews or outside of the specific page(s) that ask about equal opportunity information gathering.

#labor rights #unions #obviously you may not trust or believe those pages and that’s fine don’t feel compelled to fill them out #i like to because if i’m getting a job as a white gnc lesbian even if im not out as some of those things #i would like that place to be given a thumbs up #and i’m getting that job only because im white…… i would like that place to be fined #but i understand not wanting to do so and not wanting that information to be attached to your name #i believe theoretically it should be anonymized but you never fuckin know

do u ever think about corn sweat; and the fact that a large percent of corn grown in Illinois, iowa, etc is grown for ethanol and biofuel; and how solar power would be so many times more effective per acre than this; and how like 90+% of so many rare ecosystems in those states was drained for farm and suburbs (in many cases previously farms).

AND you could still have native plants around and even under the solar panels.

When you see what they did to the Midwest you'll want to fucking kill the corn lobbyists with your bare hands

This includes not working for free. Shift is over and work is left to do? Leave it for the next person who is paid to take care of it. Is that you and it'll sit all weekend? Well, they should hire someone else to help with the workload. They don't pay you to worry about that.

I see this with coworkers who will stay 30 min past their shift because they don't want to leave unfinished tasks for the next person. We are chronically understaffed and the employer is not inclined to change this fact if the work is still getting done and service isn't impacted.

There are gonna be people who won't like hearing this but if you want to live in a world where mixed marriages, families, and adoptions (particularly POC adopting outside their "race") aren't maligned and discriminated against, then you have got to get more chill about seeing someone partaking in something cultural that you don't think fits the "race" you perceive them as.

It's a vague memory now, it was a vague memory even at the time I made this post, but I think what sparked this was remembering stupid comments I saw about a Chinese-American cookbook that were complaining about it being written by a white woman and then I looked the white woman up and the briefest research showed she was adopted as a child into a Chinese-American family and just....

*pinches nose*

Fellas, is it cultural appropriation to inherit your family's culture but you don't pass the blood quantum test?

All of you are literally just racist. You've come full-circle. You're working under the belief that people are supposed to "keep to their own kind" and that means the socially invented concept of "race", and "race mixing" of any sort is unnatural.

#anti racism #tbh the talk around aave- while a complex issue- does usually strike me as «only black people should talk black»#and obviously we don’t do enough to acknowledge black american culture and language like obviously we don’t #it gets real weird when people are like «don’t use aave!» like y’all aave enters the broader vernacular and that is i think a net positive #also i teach a fair amount of black kids i would like to communicate with them in the best way possible which means using pieces of aave

I wish I could make white people(and not just white Americans) understand how diverse the pre-columbian Americas were. The history, religion, culture, politics was at least as complex as Europe's. There was the full gamut of religions, from monotheists to animists to ancestral religions. There were city building empires, village farmers, nomadic traders, and so many other ways to live. This is all just based on what we know, the fragments left behind and the stories of survivors of an apocalyptic plague. All this before the most extended campaign of genocide in history was waged in an attempt to wipe out those survivors.

Over 500 years spent trying to cut down a whole trunk of human culture.

Do you understand how much poorer our whole species is because of it? Can you imagine where art, religion, and science would be if we still had these vast bodies of knowledge? The stain of the colonial project will never be fully washed clean. We owe more than just the land to those we stole from. We owe them a whole future, a future that could have been brighter for all of us. If only greed and fear weren't allowed to rule this land.

#anti colonialism #i think about this sometimes and i just sit in horror and loss #i love afrofuturism but we need more indigenous futurism #indigenous american* futurism specifically

If your system doesn't account for the fact that Parents Are Going To Be Abusive/Neglectful/Insufficient then it objectively sucks I'm sorry I don't make the rules

galaxycepheus

Monitored bank accounts for those under 18. Requiring parental consent for medical procedures. Parental controls on personal devices. "We won't teach this at school because parents are supposed to address it at home." Anything that puts all of the child's power onto the parents' hand, anything that assumes parents are going to inherently do enough of a good job no one else needs to interfer, every single one of these IS going to be used by controlling, neglectful or unprepared parents and already are, and if the system did not account for that very real, tangible, dangerous tendency, then it's not worth fucking anything. You shouldn't make things "for the youth"/with children in mind if you are going to overlook this painfully common aspect of their lives u_u
