A graduate student has created the first man-made biological leaf. It absorbs water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen just like a plant. He did this by suspending chloroplasts in a mixture made out of silk protein. He believed it can be used for many things but the most striking one is the thought that it could be used for long distance space travel. Plants do not grow in space, but this synthetic material can be used to produce oxygen in a hostile environment. (Video)

Joe Walsh: Angela are you gonna let me speak or not?

Angela Rye: Are you gonna say something while your mouth is moving?

Joe Walsh: Barack Obama had no experience and Donald Trump had no experience.

LISTEN SEEING A BLACK WOMAN GET A WHITE MAN TOGETHER CLEANSES MY SPIRIT 

[cumleak-deactivated20210627]

she literally murdered him on live television

[asdfghjklnia]

Y’all so Angela Rye came to our school to speak. She was talking about how we have to watch who gets put in office because just because some white people call themselves democrats, they still don’t care about black issues. When they opened the floor for questions, a white man went to the mic, and I guess he called himself picking a bone with her. He starts saying how he’s a politician and he’s a democrat and he didn’t like what she said about white democrats. So she asked him how he felt about a black issue (reparations), just to give him a chance. He didn’t say A WORD! Everyone started laughing so hard because he really fixed his mouth to argue with her then proved the EXACT point that she was making. Like are you really THAT DUMB💀💀💀

[shadow-boxer19]

How did he not just burst into flames? She scorched his dumb ass.

Gamers when minorities get represented in a game with fantasy creatures 

[lhuwolfking69]

I kinda resent this.  Im a gamer and i love minorities in Fantasy games.  I played a D&D session where our quest giver was a little asian woman, also a village wise woman……..she was all really sweet until some bandit attacked…… She hexed his….butt   Was awesome

[rashemibabe]

Then this isn’t targeted at you.

[chaoscorvid-deactivated20181218]

Then who is it directed at? Whiny alt righters who don’t even play the games? You do realize the gaming community, both tabletop and video game, is probably THE most accepting and diverse fandom out there?

[rashemibabe]

How elementary it is for you to think that your experiences are the same as mine and OPs. Lmao

[jequitakoyama]

This is like if i made a post about how blacks people are criminals or something and someone who was black said “im not like that” and i replied “well this wasnt directed at you”

Its still a wrongful, hurtful, incorrect generalization of a group

[rashemibabe]

If you were black and said that trying to be introspective on your own community that would be fine. Do you get that? A lot of these people are gamers of color, including me, saying this shit about their own community. And because yall are so fucking butthurt and selfish you want to make everything about yourself. “Well that’s not me. I would never.” Then this post ain’t about you. That doesn’t mean problems in the community don’t exist.

How damn hard is it to understand that simple concept.

Yall rather ignore issues in the community because this post isn’t apart of your personal experience. New flash, everybody experiences shit differently.

[ladha]

LMAOOOOOO are gamers oppressed now? A genre full of 20-50 year old crackers. Shmood

The sign of high quality is the fact the book was banned by the government. Trash literature NEVER EVER had any troubles with the law.

FARENHEIT 451 IS ON THE BANNED BOOKS LIST??? IT’S LITERALLY ABOUT THE SOCIETAL DANGERS OF BANNING/OUTLAWING/BURNING BOOKS ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

[dancing-coyote]

That’s the reason it’s on the bloody list.

BECAUSE IT’S ABOUT HOW BANNING AND BURNING BOOKS IS WRONG.

[itslaroneppl]

So are we banning US history books as well?! Cause ummmmm yea… VERY uncomfortable 😣

[ultralight-sunbeam]

I legit read all this shit when I was in school. Why all of a sudden it’s banned???

Our generation is making too much noise so they’re making sure this next one falls in line with wtf they want. Fuck all that shit. MAKE YOUR KIDS READ!!!!

[ceemee]

Vote 👏🏼 in 👏🏼 the 👏🏼 2018 👏🏼 Midterm 👏🏼 Elections 👏🏼

[amuzed1-deactivated20241106]

SERIOUSLY

[radio-freedunmovin-deactivated2]

If you vote in Democrats, they’ll be able to block Trump’s policies

[mewiet]

It’s not just that they’ll be able to block Drumpf’s policies for the (hopefully only) remaining two years: the entire House of Representatives is up for re-election in 2018. Whoever wins the House in 2018 will still control it in 2020, when we have our next census. This means we voting districts will get to be redrawn and if Republicans retain control of the House in 2020, they will make gerrymandering even worse than it is now, which already favors them.

But the odds are severely in favor of Republicans for 2018. The election is ridiculously lopsided: 23 Democrat seats and both (there are only 2) Independent seats (who Caucus with Dems) will be up for the taking compared to only 8 Republican seats. Not to mention midterm election turnout is always far less than POTUS elections and Republicans consistently turn out for midterms while non-Republicans fail to show up worse than they normally do.

It gets worse. This is the Senate race in 2018:

Arizona - Currently Republican

California - Currently Democrat

Connecticut - Currently Democrat

Delaware - Currently Democrat

Florida - Currently Democrat

Hawaii - Currently Democrat

Indiana - Currently Democrat

Maine - Currently Independent

Maryland - Currently Democrat

Massachusetts - Currently Democrat

Michigan - Currently Democrat

Minnesota - Currently Democrat

Mississippi - Currently Republican

Missouri - Currently Democrat

Montana - Currently Democrat

Nebraska - Currently Republican

Nevada - Currently Republican

New Jersey - Currently Democrat

New Mexico - Currently Democrat

New York - Currently Democrat

North Dakota - Currently Democrat

Ohio - Currently Democrat

Pennsylvania - Currently Democrat

Rhode Island - Currently Democrat

Tennessee - Currently Republican

Texas - Currently Republican

Utah - Currently Republican

Vermont - Currently Independent

Virginia - Currently Democrat

Washington - Currently Democrat

West Virginia - Currently Democrat

Wisconsin - Currently Democrat

Wyoming - Currently Republican

All of the states in bold were awarded to Drumpf, 11 of which are currently held by Democrats. Republicans hold a 52 seat majority right now. If they can maintain the 8 seats they have to defend, they only need 8 Democrat and/or Independent seats to have a 60 seat supermajority and the power to pass basically anything they want under Trump for two years.

If you think it’s catastrophic now (and it is), imagine Drumpf and the Republicans with a 60 seat supermajority for two years plus a Republican House with the power to redistrict in 2020.

[elrond50]

And that is why organizing now is critical. Getting people to run against every GOP House Member and tying every action by Trump to them. Make the 2018 elections ALL ABOUT TRUMP. This is also about taking back Governor’s Mansions. 

It is NOT impossible, but it requires effort. 2018 elections efforts SHOULD ALREADY BE UNDERWAY!

[positive-pebble]

@ all my american followers

[season-your-veggies-boil-the-gov]

Important note: States redistrict. Not Congress. So, while it’s important to keep Trump from making gains it’s also crazy important to work on state legislature races.

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

ALL OF THIS

[feministlikeme]

THE CENSUS IS CRITICAL. 

The gerrymandering in this country is HORRENDOUS. If the GOP is in control when that happens, I truly fear for the future of democracy.

i just got a super predatory debt collection letter. it was for a $113 debt from citizens bank, who i had an account with when i was 16 (20 years ago). the letter appeared to be an offer to cancel the debt if i paid them $22.75. HOWEVER, the actual wording is, “The amount of the debt is $113.77 and we will accept $22.75.” so, no MENTION of canceling the debt, but the implication is there because many collectors of current debt offer to settle for a percentage. at the bottom of the letter, it says: “Because of the age of your debt, we cannot sue you for it and we cannot report to any credit reporting agency. In many circumstances, you can renew the debt and start the time period for the filing of a lawsuit against you if you take specific actions such as making payments on the debt or making a written promise to pay.” basically… i don’t owe this money anymore, the debt is so old they can’t legally sue me for it OR put it on my credit report, BUT if i take their generous offer of paying them $22.75… they can sue me for the full amount because making a payment makes the debt current. no thanks, jefferson capital systems llc.

[feetlips]

always, always read the entire letter! it is so important because of semantic awfulness like this!

On mobile so I can’t embed, but this John Oliver video on debt and debt buyers goes into exactly why and how OP got that letter.

[thatdiva]

banks are evil

[mainflopgirl]

if thanos wanted to kill off half of the population because there weren’t enough resources……..but then snapped half of the vegetation and animals (according to the russos)……..then isn’t he back at square one……………and there aren’t enough resources for the population……………

[mainflopgirl]

what about……..all of the empty and abandoned planets……..he couldn’t have restributed populations there? or like………..what about endangered species they’re pretty much gone now thanks to T Hanos…………..he really didn’t think this through………….

[mainflopgirl]

[mxnrique]

this is deadass what part 4 is gonna be. like he’s gonna realize “huh…. maybe this wasn’t a good idea” and reverse time.

[cottonginandjuice]

Or he literally could have just doubled the resources

[d-e-l-ete-d-deactivated20181014]

Maybe I’m wrong but all he would need is the Space Stone to teleport and  redistribute resources + life. But I guess killing half of all life made more sense.

[peterparkesfluff-blog]

Or he could’ve just created more planets and teleported the halfs but a bitch is too dumb

[d-e-l-ete-d-deactivated20181014]

He can throw a moon for a fight but teleporting some resources is too much work?

He can change reality but he uses it to fake his death and do a power point presentation?

He has the time stone, in which he could literally go back in time and save his home planet ….not by killing half of them …but by using these new powers?

[nabyss]

👏👏👏👏👏

[thingsididntknowwereerotic]

Thanos is a straight white male who enacted a straight white male solution. Watching Infinity War should make people want to vote for diversity in our governing bodies!! The end of I WILL is what happens when you give a bunch of no-perspective dummies the power to make decisions about the whole world.

[hiddleshoneybunny]

And @thingsididntknowwereerotic just took this shit to another level!

*VOTE*!!!

[thingsididntknowwereerotic]

All I’m saying is, Thanos-style decision making is what led to the Flint crisis.
