lukewarm take but i personally do not give a shit if poor people cheat a system that was designed to fail them anyways. i also coincidentally do not enjoy the taste of boot rubber
If people need to “cheat” the system just to have enough money to eat and keep a roof over their heads, they deserved the money anyways and the system is broke.
HELLO???!!!!

i am NOT fucking letting tiktok teens be nostalgic for fucking aeropostle, skinnybrow, mandatory hair straightening 2007-2010 fashion, we literally rock bottomed in every fucking regard in those years
excluding the dance music which fucking ruled for no reason
these middle schoolers are touring campus and one of them walked by me and said “hey what’s college life like” and i told him “it sucks” and he said “well it can’t be any worse than middle school.” he’s right
Take these words through your darkest hour, for though we maybe tired and hungry, at least we’re not in fucking middle school
Last days to wear a straw hat
Clearly you guys like danger, have you never heard of
Okay the summary posted in this image does NOT do the WILDNESS of this occurrence justice so I will give some more detail.
All right, so straw boater and Panama hats became trendy in the U.S. in the late 19th century, but it was considered “bad form” for men in cities to wear them. It later became more “acceptable” for men to wear these specific hats ONLY during summer. By the early 20th century, there was like an unwritten “rule” that they had to stop wearing straw hats and start wearing felt or other types of hats on September 15. This is already kind of weirdly specific, but, y’know, etiquette rules surrounding attire are known to BE weirdly specific, so fine. But here’s where it gets full on wacky.
According to Wikipedia, it became a Thing in North American cities for teens to literally accost any man wearing a straw hat on or after September 15, knock his hat off, and stomp on it to destroy it. It was also “socially acceptable” for stockbrokers (i.e. grown-ass adults) to destroy each other’s straw hats, but NOT acceptable for any other adult strangers to do it to each other. It became so much of a tradition that newspapers would print warnings close to the date reminding people to switch hats. Basically men wearing straw hats after the designated date would at minimum risk ridicule, but might also have their head smacked and their property destroyed by Youths. And this “hat bashing” was apparently fine and dandy from both legal and social perspectives so long as it happened after September 15.
BUT THEN.
On September 13, 1922, a group of teens in New York City decided to begin their shenanigans two days early, and knocked off and stomped the hats of some factory workers. When they moved on, and tried this with a group of dock workers, however, the “more innocuous stomping” turned into a “brawl” because these men weren’t having any of this nonsense and fought back. More people were pulled into the fighting, which eventually blocked traffic on a nearby bridge and had to be broken up by police.
But that was not the end of it! It seems that events “escalated” and continued into the following day! On the evening of September 14, “teenagers prowled the streets wielding large sticks, sometimes with a nail driven through the top, looking for pedestrians wearing straw hats and beating those who resisted.” THIS IS A REAL THING THAT HAPPENED. Men wearing straw hats still within the completely arbitrary acceptability period were getting beaten up by roving gangs of children with clubs. Several people were hospitalized. According to one man who had his hat stolen on Amsterdam Avenue, there were upwards of 1,000 kids there stealing and destroying boaters and Panamas. Police eventually started making arrests (some teens even attacked cops and stomped their hats).
Most of the youths who got arrested were punished with fines, but at least one kid was sentenced to three days in jail by the circumstantially-hilariously-named Magistrate Peter A. Hatting. Some boys younger than fifteen had their parents called in and were “spanked ignominiously” at a police station at a cop’s order.
Anyway the Hat Stomping Tradition continued for a few more years and in 1924 a guy got straight up murdered for wearing a straw hat past September 15. But then straw boater hats fell out of fashion especially after the Great Depression hit, Panama straw hats got even more popular so it was less acceptable to hate on them, and the whole thing died out.
Start Date: 1922 …no end date though? I like the insinuation
Ok you want gossip? My stepsibling came out as trans and it’s killing me that I can’t roll up and be like hey guess what dad you actually got two of us, not just one, and be her cool enby big sibling without revealing that I faked my death a few years ago and actually just moved away. So I just have to sit here six towns over and hope she figures it out eventually. Luckily she’s smarter than our dad so like. Totally possible. Our other sister already did. I didn’t do a very good job of it according to her.
YOU FAKED YOUR DEATH?
God I love this website
why is this so fucking funny to me
I’m gonna keep repeating myself that I really think the entire pro life movement exists so that American conservatives can have one single issue that lets them assume a moral high ground, to distract from the fact that their entire ideology is completely hostile to human life.
she really read "i ignore infant mortality rates in the poorest states" and agreed.
Absolutely no self awareness.
im going to start a false crime podcast where i explain crimes that never actually happened
i’m going to do the crimes you explain, forcing you into having a true crime podcast
was explaining to my mom on the phone the concept of a cosmic horror and she hit me with the one hit k.o. of "oh you mean like horton hears a who?"
Explain???
me: yeah so basically a cosmic horror is the fear of a godlike being or entity so much bigger than yourself and your perception of the universe that your brain cant possibly comprehend it, often leading to some sort of madness in the stories because of this "break" in your perception of reality because this entity is so incomprehensible to your limited worldview. the concept is credited to h.p. lovecraft because of stuff like cthulu but the guy was also a massive-
my mom, interjecting: ah, so like horton hears a who. i get it.
#wait so like#does the LEGO movie count#they manage to escape into the human world and it’s all hazy because they don’t understand#and the people were controlling them the whole time
SURE SURE THE LEGO MOVIE IS A COSMIC HORROR WHY NOT
hmmm. not to be a communist on main but you deserve more than just necessities actually
if anyone’s wondering what this is about, documents were recently leaked showing the government here are monitoring hozier’s social media (and some other public figures’) because of his speaking out against direct provision, a system that was intended to clothe and shelter asylum seekers while their applications were processed but has turned into a sort of purgatory where people can end up for years, stuck in not-great conditions and unable to properly start their lives here in ireland. there’s also a lot of controversy over the spread of covid in direct provision facilties, including a huge outbreak here in bray
To give some perspective: Chariots were invented circa 2000 BC and were the fastest form of transportation known to man for around 3800 years until trains in the 1800′s. Then 100 years later we were flying, and 66 years after that we were on the Moon.
And then we just fucking stopped. Wtf man. Where are my space cars!?!
jojo siwa is like. her style is not my taste at all but as soon as other people call it annoying im like actually you're wrong she's an icon and a legend
she looks like the concentrated essence of a claires store and i do not mean this negatively
it’s the “fuck you” to the current trend of encouraging teenagers to look 24 and embracing girly things that cis men hate
American Kawaii
she looks like someone turned a Skittles commercial into a person and i love it
If you don’t mind me putting my two cents:
I feel like Jojo Siwa’s style is reminiscent of the colorful teen girl fashion of the late 2000s and early 10s. Back then it was considered fashionable to use lots of colors, accessories, etc. Take a look at Jojo Siwa:
Very colorful, generous with sparkles and accessories. It’s meant to be fun!
If you were a kid in 2007-2012 you saw something similar in the clothing the teens in your sitcoms wore, although not as exaggerated. The fashion in Shake It Up(which came out in 2010) is a really good example of this:
(You may laugh, but this was the height of fashion to 13 year old me.)
The point is, Jojo’s aesthetic is similar to being a young pre teen girl walking into Limited Too for the first time.
And the reason cishet men hate it is because they don’t find it attractive. That’s why she’s often made fun of and used as a joke so much. Because that style doesn’t cater to the male gaze. It’s not for them, so it must be bad.
