Ok like. Imagine life without ads. You wake up, check your messages across a variety of apps, no ads. You get up and put on the tv while you prep your breakfast, no ads. Maybe you drive somewhere and switch on the radio, no ads. Maybe you drive a long distance, yet somehow, not a single billboard on your path. You pick up a newspaper or magazine to pass the time, no advertisements only articles. You turn on your game console, the home screen is just about your games, no ads to buy more. You open a streaming app, you don't pay extra for no ads, there's just no ads ever.

Think about how much of your time is spent looking at ads. "Download ublock" yeah I know, I have. But that doesn't change that the world is covered with endless advertising. Imagine never seeing that again. How much better our lives would be.

i think this captures the defining pathology of the collective social media psyche right now. we are in the thrall of people who are wantonly cruel but who also demand to be coddled at all times in every way

Erinnert ihr euch noch an die Spendensammlung für das AfD-Gutachten aus dem letzten Jahr? Die Gesellschaft für Freiheitsrechte wollte untersuchen, ob die AfD als verfassungsfeindlich eingestuft werden kann, und welche Erfolgschancen ein Verbotsverfahren hätte.

Nun. Das Gutachten ist jetzt da. Es ist 1500 Seiten lang, aber um es kurz zusammenzufassen: Es sieht nicht gut aus.

Die AfD richtet sich klar gegen die freiheitlich-demokratische Grundordnung. Menschenfeindliche Äußerungen sind keine verbalen Ausrutscher einzelner, sondern haben in der Partei System. Radikale Kräfte haben sich klar durchgesetzt.

Hier gibt es eine Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Erkenntnisse:

Das AfD-Gutachten der Gesellschaft für Freiheitsrechte

Das AfD-Gutachten ist die bislang umfassendste und juristisch anspruchsvollste Untersuchung der AfD. Lesen Sie jetzt, warum ein Verbotsverfa

Und jetzt?

Auf der Website gibt es einen Link, über den man das Gutachten an seine:n Abgeordnete:n schicken kann. Die E-Mail ist vorgegeben und kann nicht angepasst werden; wer lieber persönlich was formulieren möchte, findet wie immer hier die entsprechenden Kontaktdaten.

Natürlich wird auch das niemanden sofort überzeugen. Aber steter Tropfen höhlt den Stein, und ich denke schon, dass gerade rechtskonservative CDU'ler sich die AfD sehr schönreden.

My one criticism of The Other Bennet Sister is that Dónal Finn spends about 50% of his scenes wearing those slutty little spectacles and that number could be higher.

I love how Mary has hair on her body, doesn't wear much makeup and just looks like a real person. Other shows should take notes. It is so refreshing to see actual people on the TV

[beardedtacosandwich]

I have watched the other bennet sister in a day. I belive in love and happiness again and can't stop smiling. Mary literally has the best facial expressions, I love her.

I think one of the gentlest things in the world is when a friend just gets your weird little brain. like you say half a sentence and they finish it. you reference something incredibly niche from seven years ago and they’re already nodding. they understand your strange vocabulary for emotions that don’t have real words yet. it’s being seen and known and still loved. maybe especially because you’re known. god. what a gift.

[assiraphales]

I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive

‘Bigger and better than ever’: how Durham Pride beat Reform’s funding axe with help from the miners

Solidarity between LGBTQ+ people and unions has saved an event denied ‘a single penny’ of council money

"What’s the point of supporting gay rights but nobody else’s rights. You know? Or - workers’ rights but not Women’s rights - it’s - I don’t know - illogical."

"There’s a lodge banner down in the welfare. We bring it out for special occasions. It’s a hundred years old. I’ll show it to you one day. It’s a symbol like this -

Two hands.

That’s what the labour movement means. Should mean. You support me and I support you. Whoever you are. Wherever you come from. Shoulder to shoulder. Hand to hand."

I wish people were as scared of getting into a car accident as they are of being true crime'd. Maybe then they wouldn't be on their phones while driving.

i know folks are gonna call me a pedo for this one, but i grew up seeing my mom and grandma naked. they had health issues and at times needed care and help showering. and i truly think more kids need to be shown the nonsexual reality of naked women at a young age. there is nothing sexual about my grandmothers breasts, they were simply body parts. more women die of heart attacks because people are too afraid of breasts to do real chest compressions, because they are scared to touch their breasts. the sexualization of our bodies literally kills us. i need people to be more normal about naked bodies and i'm 100% serious.
