I remember my parents visiting the US a decade or two ago and talking about how surprised they were that the US media scarcely talks about things happening outside the country. That kind of made sense, I thought. There’s a lot of the US to talk about. Whereas the entire population of Australia is less than the population of Texas.
Then I found out how little they tell the population about things that happen inside the country. I remember seeing multiple Americans being like, ‘What do you mean other countries give us help when we have wildfires.’
And I – an Australian – was like, uhhh. We send over people and specialised firefighting choppers regularly. (And Australian firefighters have specialised knowledge there – the reason that Californian wildfires are so bad is because there was a mass planting of eucalyptus trees, which are oil rich and well adapted to surviving bushfires.)
I grew up with the evening news reporting on our bushfires saying things like ‘the US has sent over a crew and additional choppers to help fight the blaze in country New South Wales, and the CFA expects that they should have it under control soon.’ But the reverse doesn’t seem to be true in the US.
That brought home to me just how much of the US news is filtered to emphasise the US’s emphasis on individualism. It’s harder to sound believable about how little you need others when other countries are regularly pitching in to help keep your wildfires under control. It’s hard to keep a consistent message going about US exceptionalism if you admit that the country you vilify regularly as being full of people who are champing at the bit to invade your country are actually there on the ground helping you recover from a natural disaster.

It didn’t get talked about that much, but one of the things the railroad workers were demanding was that they reinstate an old rule that there have to be at least two engineers in the locomotive at all times, in case one falls asleep or has some kind of emergency. Because that’s often the cause of these type of crashes! Some railroad worker’s been awake for 22 hours, staring at nothing but landscape for the last four hours, he falls asleep and there’s no one around to wake him up.
The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.
I have never before heard of Everett True, but if he “regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude,” I have a strong spiritual connection with him.
I fucking love him
i can imagine this guy’s voice very clearly in my head but i couldn’t put a name to it
He also jabs racists in the eye!
I love the justice grandpa of fists
I’m very lucky to own a book that’s a collection of most of these comics (sadly not all of them) and would highly recommend hunting these down if you can. Sorry for the lack of a scanner but phone photos will just have to do.
He was a enjoyable cuss who didn’t care for war mongering.
Especially profitable war mongering and excuses for it!
He certainly didn’t like selfish husbands and fathers!
Politicians who turned on their words once they got theirs weren’t safe.
He said fuck the police!
He absolutely didn’t like people ruining little things for kids.
He stood up for foreigners. Especially those doing their best to communicate with limited second language knowledge.
He was not having any tomfoolery when it came to gun safety and laws. Especially with youth involved.
You had better not abuse a animal with him nearby. He’d right that wrong real quick!
And best of all him and his wife were both prickly cusses together. Relationship goals.
I have a new role model
“justice grandpa of fists”
It’s nice to see a fat dude in a political cartoon that’s NOT being used as shorthand for greed and corruption.
Hes like the personification of motherfucker unlimited
Reblogging this newer version of this thread with so many more strips I haven’t seen…why did this character ever disappear. Where did you go, Everett.
we need him more than ever…
sorry to make a long post longer but I feel like we could all really use some Everett True Beating Up Anti-Maskers content:
He’s a hero, our Everett.
Just found out there were live action Everett True shorts (silent films, though, so the outbursts were largely body language)
Reblogging to always have it to hand. :)
We don’t deserve him, but we need him.

The Answer To So Many Problems Today
Why the hell are humans the only intelligent species that figured out a way to live on this planet without a constantly present, immediate or even regular risk of starvation, death by illness or violent death at the hands of a predator or one of their own, and still be the only one to not manage to have a good time doing it.
Like what the fuck are octopi doing. They do fuck all, just fuck around, fuck with people, punch out a random fish because fuck that fish in particular, lolling around and occasionally finding food. Somewhere out there, at this minute, there's a crow that's sliding down a rooftop again and again with a coke bottle lid for a sled, having the time of its life. All the smart species are using their intelligence to mainly just do pointless dumb shit for fun.
Why the fuck do we have taxes and car insurance to worry about.
I was going to say rich fuckers took all the good times for themselves and brainwashed everyone else into thinking they have to earn it...but then they somehow manage to not have a good time purely due to their own hubris.
I mean I have nothing against paying taxes, they've just changed some income tax law again and now I have to hire a professional to figure out how the fuck I'm supposed to do all this.
And the super rich parasite class being fucking miserable really does drive it in, doesn't it. Imagine having the wealth, freedom and power to do literally anything you could possibly want 24/7, and spending that one fleeting life getting bullied on the internet and trying to make everyone else more miserable than you are yourself.
Environmental Racism in the Sahara Desert. Idrissou Mora Kapi, 2004.
A case study in environmental racism set in the uranium mining town in the Sahara desert of Niger. European corporations extract nuclear power and profits leaving behind disease, contamination, and unemployment. Ironically the primary activities of Arlit today is waiting, waiting to die of radiation related sicknesses or to emigrate to find work in Europe itself. -Kanopy
Got a terf in my sideblog and the reply is not worth deigning with a response but the pinned post?
This? This is a trap. This is concern baiting. Be very sure that shit like this is not in your best interest and does not care about you. The goal of rhetoric like this is conversion.
You’ll be welcomed and asked to ignore transphobia. You will be asked to side with transphobes at the expense of trans women. Eventually, you’ll be asked to see that, hey, maybe you transitioned to escape how terrible it is to be a woman?
This may seem obviously a trap but I see people every day buy into this. People like this do not care about you! They want to “rescue” you and don’t let them convince you otherwise.
Hey this one got the terfs pissy so like. To say again. Clearly if they’re mad about this, this post hit on something. Maybe reblog it?
