stuff, mostly left wing

[the-seelie-court-official]

bout to hit my bitch coworker with the 'do you treat everyone like this or only your gay coworkers?' because i know she'll bluescreen about it. and im gonna make sure to do it when no one else is around just like she does to me with her snide bitch-ass comments. i've literally never pulled the gay card before, but i talk about my wife often enough that everyone knows. I've also got a reputation for being very level-headed, straight-forward, and conflict-adverse. No One Will Believe Her.

my plans are measured in centuries, you amateur cunt

[the-seelie-court-official]

people are asking for updates. what the hell. anyway instead of saying it directly to the coworker i went to a respected colleague who has worked at this establishment for decades and asked her if she thought bitch coworker's behavior was targeted because i'm confused and wonder if she's Just Like That With Everyone and respected colleague is now ready to go mama bear mode, as i am the same age as respected coworker's daughter.

it might seem harsh but. she shouldn't have been mean to me three times

UPDATE

All three of the mean girls bullying me at work got fired. don't fuck with me.

"my plans are measured in centuries, you amateur cunt" is the best phrase ever

It really is wild that some politicians can stand there and say "yeah we're getting rid of a program that keeps quite literally millions of people alive specifically so we can cut taxes for people who are already richer than god" as if it's a normal political stance and not so cartoonishly evil I'm legit shocked perry the platypus doesn't break through the nearest wall the minute the words leave their mouth.

[lastoneout]

"I think rich people should have more money at the expense of a healthcare program millions of disabled people rely on" is not a coherent political belief it's the kind of thing the villian in a kids movie says. Gonna tell me you want to skin puppies to make a coat next?

[lastoneout]

I think if you say out loud you think billionaires need more money and we should kill disabled people to make it happen then every person in a 5ft radius should be legally obligated to punch you as hard as they can.

Imagine being in the UK and it's the so called left wing party in power attacking the vulnerable to appease the wealthy. 😤😤😤😤 I'm not a violent person but .....

There is smth enormously dispiriting seeing the race to save the submersible separated in the nyt headlines listing by barely a sentence from the greek mass migrant drowning scandal

[loving-n0t-heyting]

If you feel powerless and demoralised in the face of news like the recent shipwreck, consider donating to reputable search-and-rescue charities like SOS Mediterranee, which operates two rescue ships to help prevent needless loss of life among migrants making the dangerous journey across the Mediterranean

SOS Mediterranée

These organisations are not a complete solution to the political problem of the migrant crisis in Europe, but they are a way of ensuring your money is spent on saving lives

We need everyone's help right now to protect the rainforest and Indigenous People

The Amazon Rainforest is under a massive threat. I know you've heard this a million times, but this is different. There is a piece of legislation that will decimate the rights of Indigenous people of Brazil, who have been protecting the rainforest. It's unfathomably bad. It has majority support. And they're voting tomorrow. As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

The thing you can do—and I know this sounds overly simple—is sign this petition—and tell your friends to do the same: SIGN HERE.

As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

Again, this bill has majority support. You may be wondering, why will a petition signed by people who don't live in Brazil make any difference? Because it will give those opposing it political air cover. It will show the world is with them.

But we need a LOT of signatures.

Please do this simple act and spread the word.

Arrests today in London.

By the sounds of it, none of these people had actually *done* anything.

Britain, the police state.

PS Green and black cross are putting out urgent calls for post arrest support, contact them on twitter if you can help.

It's almost like the "conspiracy to cause a public nuisance" rule was made up specifically to stop anyone from exercising their right to peacefully protest against an archaic, undemocratic cabal of out of touch overprivileged billionaire lizard people who rule, not on merit, but on popping out first when their folks did the nasty

The coronation is litterally leading to people going hungry.

I have conflicting feelings about foodbanks, but this is appalling, so maybe consider dropping your local foodbank a donation?

[georgewalt]

"The Republic protest had been organised with the full cooperation and blessing of the Met. Security minister Tom Tugendhat referred to it as evidence that the coronation day would present Britain to the world as a “showcase of liberty”. That had not stopped the chief executive of Republic, Graham Smith, and five of his supporters from being arrested at 7.30 on Saturday morning as they arrived in the square to unpack placards. Those who witnessed the arrest were unsure about the basis on which they had been held. It was assumed that the police were exercising the vague new powers against protest that had rushed through to royal assent on Wednesday."

From

‘Not my king,’ they chanted. Then the police took their megaphones

The Met hobbled Republic’s plans with early arrests but the protest group insist their support is growing

So this new "inclusive" monarchy is off to a flying start by turning us into more of a police state. "We think you might make people a little uncomfortable by disagreeing with them. Back of the porkmobile for you laddie." Meanwhile my android news feed has no option to tell it I'm not interested in the coronation. Strange that. What a sickening display of wasted money and extreme hypocrisy.

And when are we going to start directly taxing all companies that cause pollution instead of taxing us to deal with it. You produce plastic? Great, you also pay for recycling/ safe disposal/ researching and implementing methods of removing microplastics.

Rutger Bregman is the Dutch historian who became a global sensation after an appearance at this year’s Davos summit, where he accused attending billionaires of ignoring taxation. Now he has created another viral moment in an extremely uncomfortable interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson.

Bregman so riled Carson with his accusations of hypocrisy, critiques of Fox’s conservative agenda, and attacks on Donald Trump that the TV host called him a “moron” and angrily told him: “Go fuck yourself.”

Lot more people around the world are going to watch this now than if it actually aired. Speaking truth to power is the best viral content!

Reporter: What’s your name?

Hong Kong Protestor: Lee Chun Hei! I won’t commit suicide!

Police: 

[barkjunhee]

A reminder that Hong Kong police have been arresting children as young as 11. They have also fired at press and begun arresting reporters and aid workers with the excuse that they ‘might be protesters in disguise’. 

They have been filmed beating protesters that have already been subdued/cuffed, as well as using their weapons incorrectly (firing rubber bullets at close range) and driving into crowds. 

People are dying.This is wrong.

A Hong Kong newspaper had its printing press lit on fire a couple days ago.
