I was going for a joke

but the title couldn't handle it, it was too big for them. Over the drinking age in any country I think

The pathologization of anger needs to be talked about. What do you mean my therapist is telling me that there’s something “chemically wrong” with me because I am still angry about my mom DYING OF COVID.

of course I’m still angry? My mom and 1.3 million other Americans are dead and you want me to shoot sunshine out of my ass about it?

[rob-by]

“But It’s been 3 years since she died, you have complex grief” yeah and she was on a ventilator for 11 days and she kept writing “I am scared” and “I don’t want to die” on a notepad over and over again. While you were still going out unmasked and unvaccinated and coughing all over each other, I was living a nightmare I couldn’t fucking wake up from. And every single day I’m reminded of it in the form of “haha wasn’t the pandemic such a wacky time haha” and “I’m not getting a booster you can’t make me 🤪 (nobody asked)” and “it’s not real they made the numbers up!!!”

“You’re not coping” Ok here’s the deal; I’ll stop feeling this anger when we have a national memorial (we don’t) or a cdc equipped to stop it from happening again (we don’t) or a population that takes a deadly disease seriously BEFORE it effects them personally (WE DON’T!)

until then, I’m pretty sure my anger is A COMPLETELY NORMAL HUMAN REACTION given the facts at hand

Hi I want to let you kids know how effective these walk outs are: public schools are payed by attendance. Meaning if you’re not going to class the whole school isn’t getting payed their share. Now if it’s just like the normal kid has a sick day that’s normal.

But a class of 200? And you know who’s getting the blame? Administration. So kids continue to plan your walk outs in DROVES. Convince the kid with perfect attendance to join you, get your teacher involved by having them accept your homework at a later time.

You kids deserve a proper education and school experience. Don’t let these adults take that away from you.

My high school was 2 THOUSAND. Back in 2018, we had a beloved teacher put on leave for talking about the Parkland shooting. Nearly 300 students + staff did an impromptu walkout. We were threatened with loss of prom and graduation… until a certain magazine caught wind of us. It was TIME. Our random high school was now national news. One of my classmates went on primetime news. We had helicopters for days. The next time we walked out, over half the school participated. We were blocked in on all sides by cops.

Walkouts make them scared. Walkouts get attention. Walkouts work.

[wobblydev]

dear public school students planning a walkout: for most USian schools, there are specific days of the year that are the most important funding days for your school district, because it is the day they do a count of “butts in seats” to calculate how much money your school will get. charter schools will bribe and coax students to attend school that day, receive their funding, and then kick out all their “problem” students (disabled, need and IEP, etc) for other schools to deal with the following Friday. anyway, if you want to make your protest exceptionally successful, plan it for THAT DAY. you, with your attendance, dictate the amount of money your school gets. use your power. ask your most burnt-out teacher what day that is, they will tell you and may even walk out with you.

this only applies to public, charter and similar schools that receive public funding. private school students, use your power to walk out and shame those who have failed you very publicly. if you can hurt their enrollment numbers, you too can hit them where it will be most effective.

I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare

i believe an important kind of creative process is "i didn't know that wasn't allowed"

In lieu of juneteenth, remember that slavery never truly ended because they just switched to putting us in jail for looking for work (loitering) and having no home after being freed ('vagrancy')

Still, celebrate juneteenth because it is a joyous day, the struggles not over yet thoigh

[juggalage]

Slavery is still very legal, they just prefer the less controversial term "indentured servitude."

[isuggestrevolution]

i have a suggestion

[handageddon]

My issue with the term comfort zone is that it rhetorically implies that it's comfortable in there. But even inside the "most comfortable zone" its still a stress wet bulb event.

I never understood the saying "the world is your oyster" because oysters are famously very difficult to open and don't really have much meat in them and they taste kind of bad, if the saying was "the world is your tiramisu" I would understand because tiramisu is amazing incredible but oysters aren't all that and I am sorry but I have to speak my truth

watching a youtuber learning how to play a video game you already know how to play is the worst form of ragebait

this shit owns it's just a number go up idle game except the idle mechanic comes from you writing JavaScript to automate tasks it seems like the end goal of the game is to perfectly optimize against this little arbitrary system they've created. There's not any plot to speak of so far but even though nothing is happening people send you messages through the computer telling you to trust no one as they all have ulterior motives. Very relatable.

Bitburner is an idle game about hacking that teaches real JavaScript

You don't have to know JavaScript to get started.

[exeggcute]

guys be careful. this game may look fun but it's actually a ploy to get you to learn javascript

Getting down on my knees and thanking the humans who invented dishwashers and washing machines.

[ihonestlydontknowwhattocallthis]

InsNe that dishwashers are more efficient and easier than just washing them manually but they also use less water. It’s a win win situation

[systlin]

They ALSO sterilize dishes, due to operating at a far higher temperature than human hands could ever tolerate. It's a win every way.

[systlin]

Made this post about 15 minutes after the repair guy who fixed the pump on my dishwasher packed up his tools and left, as the dishwasher was whirring along doing my dishes from that morning.

He said the exact same thing, which I did not know before that, so spreading this knowledge.
