Why seriously tell people to kill themselves when ‘deactivate your account’ is 1000x funnier and 1000x less shitty?
unplug your controller dawg
forfeit my buddy
concede dude
Call your ISP and tell them you’ve had enough.
Now that we have these fantastic alternatives I don’t wanna see anyone telling people to kill themselves anymore.
when i was younger nobody wanted to mess with me and my squad
#NowPlaying Fed Up With Hunger by Saintseneca
I wrote Florida off a long time ago. Im not independant enough to avoid it, though. So this go-around I think Ive learned a lesson in both tolerance and reluctance. I have not so fond memories of walking home from school thinking something like 'fuck this fucking heat!!' Its a thought I kept with me during the thick of my last Iowan winter. Maybe 50 or 60 or 70 years ago when this damn swamp was some wild abyss. An open scab crawling with ospreys and alligators. It would be cooler and interesting. But I can hardly stand the oppulance of it all now. 'Los Angeles, Im yours' by The Decemberists kind of sums up my bitterness. If I ever become a musician Ill write something along the lines of 'Orlando, Im yours, despite my best to avoid this festering swamp'.

I don’t care how many times I see this I will always reblog it
Stop spending money on war and lies and start spending it on ways to make this planet better.
i like how this headline implies that europe and germany are not part of this world
Obama took his first vacation on May 30, 2009 — after 129 days in office — to go on a date with Michelle in NYC. Republicans attacked him for being frivolous during a recession.
So-called President Trump is all tuckered out after two weeks and needs to get away on a vacation that will cost taxpayers $3 million, and there’s not a peep from the GOP now.
Double standard. Obama bias. Racists. Hypocrites. White privilege.
Hi everythings great and everythings fine. Yes everythings fine. Everythings fine.
On a job application: “What is your preferred name and gender, we value diversity, so be honest.” Me:
I don’t know what this means. I’ve never filled out a form that said that.
they’re asking you to disclose if you’re transgender. legally, they can’t ask or consider someone’s gender in hiring someone, so they get around it by giving you the option of telling them yourself. if you “volunteer” the information, that’s legal.
its like when they try to figure out if you’re poor by asking if you have “reliable transportation,” hoping that ppl will explain that they dont have a car without actually being asked. things like that.
its a scummy thing to do, especially in this case where theyre presenting it like a “diversity” thing.
^^^^ Never answer those questions honestly if you actually want the job.
My managers have personally told people that anyone who puts anything like that outside of just “male or female” gets their application tossed immediately. Btw if an interviewer asks if you have reliable transportation, don’t say anything but “yes I do” that’s it!!!!! Don’t say another word don’t say you take the bus or walk or bike or get rides or uber don’t say anything!!!!! Just say yes and that is it they cannot require any sort of proof of transportation.
Shit. I didn’t know that about transportation but I'mma start doing it now.

“The Nazis didn’t just kill the Jews; they made use of every inch of them. Women’s hair was shaved off and weaved into blankets for Nazi soldiers. Fat from Jews’ bodies was used to make soap. Gold teeth were pulled out to make gold bars for the Reichsbank. 384,000 pairs of men’s shoes were sent to Germany from Auschwitz. 646,000 men’s suits. 184,000 pairs of eyeglasses. The most frightening thing is not the gas chambers or the crematoria. It’s the rooms piled to the ceiling with children’s shoes. That gives you have an idea what the Holocaust was. Shoes. Once worn by real people.” - via jewishhistory.org
In the Holocaust Museum in DC, they have a room just for the shoes and hair of the victims. It’s really startling to see it so up close since it makes you realize the sheer scale of this. The pile of hair in the museum weighs several tons, and bear in mind that this several ton pile of hair is only but a small fraction of all of the horrible things found in the camps.
Somewhere in those shoes were the shoes of my great aunts and their children.
Same with eyeglasses.
It’s something I can never, ever forget.
The above are photos I took at Auschwitz. The shoes and suitcases were each encased in a hallway - kept behind glass on both sides. And again comprise only a fraction of what the Nazis took.
Now the significance of these collections can not be understated or undermined, the horrors of the Holocaust, the Shoah, are embodied in these piles of stolen clothing and cases.
We look at them and recoil, promising that we’ll never forget and yet the systematic slaughter of human beings continues around the world.
In different places, for different reasons. Who didn’t learn the lesson? Who still needs to be reached? Who needs to be protected?
Do not forget. Remember and react. Radical evil is not a memory of the past, it is a present and continuous force.
