americans are sooo desensitized to guns and sometimes it manifests in ways that affect your media literacy. like remember in the first episode of sherlock when john watson opens up his drawer and you see a gun in there and youre supposed to understand that this is narratively significant and conveys his suicidality as well as his willingness to skirt rules and laws but the first time i watched it i was like oh well theres his desk gun. lots of people have those

[anonpolls]

"The USSR was so oppressive they didn't even have tropical fruit" hey quick question why is tropical fruit so readily available in the US. WHY IS TROPICAL FRUIT SO READILY AVAILABLE IN THE US.

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

quickly now: how did Florida and Hawaii come to be part of the US empire

[avaricesstuff]

Calling it the US Empire as though the USSR wasn't even worse about taking over and subjugating territory.

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

groundbreaking: more than one country can commit acts of imperial violence

[creacher-art]

Backtracking to fruit… y’all, tropical fruit production has some of the bloodiest examples of land grabbing in history. Here are a few you may or may not know of:

Bananas and “Banana Republics” (1928 Chiquita/US-backed Colombian army massacre of ~3,000 farm workers on strike)

Palm Oil/Palm plantations (43% owned by agribusiness Wilmar, who pays their workers as little as $2.50 USD/day + massive deforestation)

Cacao aka Chocolate (60-70% of chocolate is produced in West Africa, where many plantations continue to use child labor)

Açaí berries (Continuous reports of forced labor and child labor in Brazilian production)

Sugarcane/Sugar (Centuries of slavery, landgrabbing, and colonization in places such as Florida, The Caribbean, South America, SE Asia, etc)

Here is a list of products including fruits & other crops with documented reports of trafficking/forced labor, updated 2025

in my advanced age i've come to accept and even sometimes enjoy female characters being designed with goofy impractical fetish outfits but i still draw the line at and feel actively insulted by creators of said female characters justifying said designs with how "actually practical" they are.

[skarchomp]

"this character has a chainmail bikini because i like it" fair enough! "this character has a chainmail bikini for strategic reasons you're just too narrow-minded to understand" man i know it's not raining, put your dick away

[tpwrtrmnky]

The types of behavior "too online" should intuitively refer to:

Expecting everyone to be familiar with an argument that happened between two people whose total social media following is like 4000 people, which happened in an insular niche of the internet, because you're so invested in that niche it feels like the whole internet.

Starting to say shit like "we need more representation of men who like women in media" because you've literally only been reading m/m fanfic for the last decade

Constructing all your politics not based on material conditions, but in opposition to people you've argued with online, based on what gives you the most engagement.

What people mean when they say "too online":

Awareness of real-life political phenomena, viewing those through the lens of well-established theories.

So this was in the Boston globe, and if I hadn’t read it myself I would have thought it was an Onion article. The lady wants walls again because now when she is working in the kitchen, her husband is in full view sitting watching TV and doing nothing. When they had walls, she was basically less aware of how ignored she was while being a hard-working woman and housewife. They don’t need walls, they need a marriage counselor.

[feenyxblue]

Okay, but also: the walls are there for a reason.

In particular, the kitchen walls are there so that you can leave the kitchen messy when entertaining guests or having a meal (to the point that some open floor concept homes have a second, secret kitchen called a mess kitchen). The walls of the kitchen confine smells to the kitchen area, so your sofa doesn’t smell of bacon. Mess spreads from room to room.

Noise too, travels in an open floor concept. You’re confined to a bedroom or outside to make phone calls, listen to podcasts, etc. etc. without disturbing the rest of the household. The minute someone needs to cook? The entire house becomes unusable.

Open floor concepts have higher heating (cuz drafty) and cooling (kitchen) costs. They also require ALL of your decor to match if that’s a thing that’s important to you.

The noise and mess spreading in particular seem to me they could exacerbate marital problems. Do they need counseling? Oh yeah. Does the house make for a less hospitable home, that puts stress on a marriage? Yes.
