If you say that theres no truth and who cares, how come you say it like you’re right?

“i also choose this guy’s dead wife” was easily the #1 funniest thing to ever be written on the internet.

[carry-on-my-wayward-butt]

you can know the punchline but you can’t stop it from punching you.

[mighty-meerkat]

i do also feel the need to add that phil8248 really liked the joke. he said his wife had always had a dark sense of humour, even about her illness and death, and seeing the joke made him feel like he was laughing with her one last time.

[ID: A Reddit post on r/AskReddit by u/PreOpTransCentaur. It reads, “You can have sex with one real person from all of human history - who is your ultimate lay?” There is a reply by u/phil8248 that reads:

I’d like to have sex one more time with my wife who passed away from cancer 9 years ago. My body yearns for hers. The ultimate downside to finding “the one” is she may die young and leave you wanting.

Under this reply, there’s a comment by u/somethingobscur that reads, “I also choose this guy’s dead wife.” /end ID]

A series of Tweets from Emily Galvin-Almanza

1: As a public defender, whenever I got a case that was especially, stupidly made up (think someone arrested for dealing drugs who was at home with no drugs, money, scales, paraphernalia, or baggies on them) the first thing I checked was the cop’s schedule.

2: Inevitably - seriously ask, like, any defense attorney about this - when you got a really stupid arrest, it would be within an hour or so of the cop’s scheduled shift. Shift ends at 6 PM? This really bad arrest would be at, like, 5:30.

3: Why? Well, because processing an arrest takes time, but it’s also really easy. So you can make time-and-a-half for sitting in the precinct typing up some papers and waiting to talk to a DA. This REALLY adds up.

4: Let’s not forget that the end-of-shift arrest isn’t just an inconvenience - arrests cost people jobs, homes, family unity, sometimes unraveling entire lives. Some of these cops are making close to half a million dollars a year on the backs of the poor and innocent.

5: So when we look at police budgets that are bloated like this… it’s not just military equipment and chemical weapons. It’s public officials lining their pockets with taxpayer money by doing terrible things to the people they’re supposed to protect.

6: And uhh it’s a lot - A LOT - of the taxpayers’ money. [Image of a graph showing exponential police spending compared to social programs.]

7: So when you hear “defund the police” and you get worried about a world where there’s no one protecting the public, please remember that EVERY MODEL for doing this envisions a world where someone is on the other end of the phone when you call 911.

Since the news is covering this up... blow this shit up.

The United States has been found guilty of 5 cases of genocide by the UN as of October 23rd.

The UN International Tribunal of Human Rights Abuses Against Black, brown, and Indigenous Peoples had a 2 day hearing and found the United States guilty of 5 counts of genocide for Police Killings, Mass Incarceration, Prisoners of War, Environmental Racism, and Public Health Inequities.

International Tribunal finds U.S. guilty of crimes against humanity

The International Tribunal on Human Rights Abuses Against Black, Brown and Indigenous Peoples was held Oct. 23-25 at The Malcolm X and Dr. B

After having heard the testimony of numerous victims of Police Racism, Mass Incarceration, Environmental Racism, Public Health Inequities and of Political Prisoners/Prisoners of War, together with the expert testimonies and graphic presentations, as well as the copious documentation submitted and admitted in the record, the Panel of Jurists find the U.S. and its subdivisions GUILTY of all five counts. We find grounds that Acts of Genocide have been committed.

Give acts of genocide against Black, Brown, and Indigenous peoples.

The day after International Tribunal 2021 found the US GUILTY of genocide!

The International Tribunal 2021 and subsequent verdict places the Movement for liberation and self-determination on the international stage

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

[teaboot]

“These artifacts were excavated by archaeologists from a burial site in the 1970’s. The remains were returned for reinterment” Okay cool, cool cool. So you just, like. Dug up the grave of a respected family member, stripped them naked, mailed their body back to their family and kept everything they were lovingly put to rest in. Like a graverobbing bastard

[toothmuncher3000]

Reminds me of the time when of the elders from my hometown started touching a totem pole in the Museum of Anthropology out at UBC and got yelled at by the staff, only to tell him that the pole had been stolen off of the front of her bighouse when she was ten years old.

Museum collectors did the equivalent of kidnapping a family member when they were away fishing.

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act requires all institutions that receive federal funding to repatriate remains and artifacts so if you can identify the source of something on display absolutely get a hold of that institute’s repatriation office

How I imagine it would look having a stroke in an art museum

[prsephonies-deactivated20200815]

when i was a teenager it felt very revolutionary to be cruel to myself. like some kind of slow passive protest against how much everything hurt. i starved myself of sleep and food and tenderness because it felt right. it felt sharp and angry and radical and i wanted to be those things. adulthood is the realisation that the world is already working to cut into you well before you learn how to do it yourself. caring for yourself and others is the real protest

FOUND THE BITCH

by Karen fawcett

[justsomeantifas]

so anyway there should be no class of person you can legally pay less based on age or disability etc. because they will always be exploited to try and drive down wages for everyone else.

so if you want to make more you should also be fighting for disabled people and teens to make just as much as anyone else

then shitty fucking chain restaurants wont beg 14 year olds to work in death traps for half pay in shitty little unventilated kitchens that killed a large amount of line cooks this past year to undercut their surviving staff demanding better working conditions so they dont die like their coworkers did.

[justsomeantifas]

cause oh yeah remember how restaurants just killed all their fucking staff and then blamed the labor shortages on unemployment checks.

now they want to kill our children.

[justsomeantifas]

every motherfucker fighting for 14 year olds to die in a mcdonalds, burning their hands in a grease fire doing jobs they werent supposed to do in the first place because their adult staff walked off job in protest of poor working conditions killing their coworkers, has blood on their hands.

[justsomeantifas]

if you really believe these godforsaken chain restaurants are well staffed and supervised enough to make sure the literal 14 year olds they have running around their understaffed kitchens arent doing jobs they arent legally allowed to do because theyre too dangerous and taxing, after all these legal cases popped up against chain restaurants for breaking child labor laws so excessively they actually faced penalties then you have no experience in doing a real job from a place that also employs actual children.

[justsomeantifas]

none of this is to say children are incompetent, or jokes, but children are more likely to be manipulated by store owners into feeling like they have to take the weight of the whole world on their shoulders and do ten times the amount of work they should be doing to prove themselves worthy when we already know you kids are worthy, thats why we know you shouldnt be there working in a mcdonalds for half pay and in terrible conditions that have already killed tens of thousands of people.

Reclaiming Coast Miwok history through indigenous interpretations of archeology

In his latest book, Assistant Professor of Anthropology Tsim Schneider examines the history of Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo peoples in California from an Indigenous perspective, uncovering stories of resilience and continued connection to culture and homelands from the 18th through 20th century, despite multiple waves of colonial intrusion.
