i think it would do a lot of people good to remember that Mormons are white supremacists, no nuance, no debate, no arguing how they've gotten "more diverse", their whole belief system is fundamentally rooted in white supremacist ideals

[libraryogre]

They try to keep it downlow, but they believe that sufficient Mormonism will make a black person "white and delightsome."

[liminalbeauty]

They have different levels of heaven, and only white people get to go to the top one.

[wizardarchetypes]

a customer was just behaving so outrageously at my job that i said, so sternly, “sir, PLEASE. have some decorum.”

???????? never in my life have i spoken to someone like that

[rockshitty]

The amount of disbelief I’m willing to suspend is directly proportional to how entertaining the show is. If a show is barely able to hold my attention and has betrayed my trust before, fuck you, that’s not how cutting someone’s head off works.

If I’m glued to my seat every week and can’t stop watching, then yes, absolutely, the professional athlete in a blond wig is indistinguishable from the 17 year old lead actress.

The fact that “dolls having a tea party” has stuck around in the public consciousness is fascinating to me.

Like, back in the Old Days that would be a way that women would actually socialize.  So if a girl had a doll tea party, she was imitating her mom / other contemporary women.

But these days contemporary women don’t have tea parties. So now, the idea of “dolls having a tea party” is an echo of an extinct behavior, only repeated and referenced because it used to be so prevalent.

So a Barbie in a big hat themed for a tea party is a bit like if they made Transformers that turned into stagecoaches and horse-drawn buggies.

like literally if i didn’t want to see some weird nonsense i wouldn’t be consuming scifi

[clementine-kesh]

“ohh this episode is about meeting a bunch of dinosaurs who developed space travel and left earth to go live on the other side of the galaxy isn’t that crazy?! isn’t that silly?!” sure yeah maybe a little but by focusing on that but you’re missing the narrative reason for it which is to provide a starting point to explore religious authoritarianism and the production of scientific knowledge

[mylittleredgirl]

just a spoonful of [nonsense] helps the [critical thinking about uncomfortable social and structural problems that are such a fundamental part of the background radiation of our lives that we can't see them] go down

[birdonahotdog]

contrary to social media developers’ beliefs i have literally never once wanted to see posts in anything other than chronological order

[judai-sm]

you really cannot say

“I hate Isreal so much it’s unreal”

without definitionally meaning

“I hate the sole place on earth made to be safe for Jews”

and

“I hate the country known for housing half the Jews on the planet”

which is easily understood to mean

“I hate Jews”

Especially when you talk about the country and its people using antisemitic language.

I hope this explains why you might be called antisemitic! If you disagree keep it to yourselves. It is not nonjews that get to say what isn’t antisemitism. Or more aptly. judenhass.

[lord-squiggletits]

People will really try to claim "Just because I hate the Jewish country doesn't mean I hate Jews who live outside of Israel," which is funny because when people say racist shit about Africans and African countries, I 100% assume that their comments on black Africans also reflect their views on black Americans. At best I expect to cringe when I hear their opinions on black Americans, at worst I expect them to be an outright white supremacist. Because it turns out that a lot of the critiques of Africa as a place full of destitute savages with no education getting free handouts from the world, are often bar-for-bar what people use to be racist to black Americans here in the US too 🤷‍♀️

Xenophobia and racism are pretty much intrinsically linked to each other, like... MAGA-type shit doesn't work so well because people hate all Mexicans for their nationality, for example, it works because to a MAGA believer, "Mexican" is short for "uneducated poor brown manual laborer who can't speak English" or "gang member that sells drugs and rapes women." No leftist/progressive in their right mind would ever try to argue that that sort of rhetoric is "only hating [Latin American country], not being racist." Everyone knows that the xenophobia is heavily racialized and heavily tied to ethnicity and culture via stereotypes related to language, education level, religion, and so on.

So yeah. Jew haters call things "spiritually Israeli" and defend it by going "I'm only insulting Israel," meanwhile one of the most common antisemitic insults/conspiracies is to claim that Jews are cultureless parasites that only steal everyone else's culture. No one with a brain is convinced either that 1. That's not still antisemitism, 2. That Jew haters don't know exactly what they're doing, or 3. That even if they don't know, their ignorance absolves them of responsibility.

Worth noting that cities are already shifting to a different company, called Axon, rather than getting rid of license plate readers altogether.

@anarchistmemedistro

Cities Are Ditching Flock, Immediately Replacing It With Axon License Plate Readers

Rather than get rid of ALPR cameras entirely, many cities and towns are switching to Axon, whose cameras can be mounted to an existing stree

[lazyscience]

This is why as non punk rock as it feels to sit on a folding chair in city hall on second Tuesday of the month or whenever YOUR city council meets, it's important to be there. That's where these conditions get made, and where we got rid of the cameras - not substituted different ones, said 'no thank you' to the entire deal.

“If you love cooking with garlic, you know it does a lot of good in recipes by helping build flavor — but its strong odor can linger for hours, especially on our hands. We’ve all been in the situation where after preparing a wonderful meal, we’re left with the stench of garlic on our fingers — yuck! There are a few tricks people often recommend to eliminate the smell: lemon juice or vinegar, rubbing your hands with salt, or even using toothpaste! But those don’t work — all they do is mask the garlic smell. So what does really work? Stainless steel.”

[deeptalkswithmonica]

cooking with garlic? jerk off your sink

[bucketofdeltav]

STRONGLY recommend jerking off a stainless steel spoon or just getting one of those gimmicky stainless steel ‘soap’ bars rather than using your expensive and hard to replace plumbing hardware - the stainless steel does get the stinky sulfur compounds off your hands, yes, but they have to go somewhere, and where they go is onto the steel. And stainless steel is not actually corrosion proof if you keep putting sulfur compounds on it frequently long term!

[butch-king-frankenstein]

obviously it's stupid and exhausting when people try and argue that you can never try to help someone figure out they're trans because of the "egg prime directive", but I do agree with them on one principle, which is that trying to tell somebody else what they are is just kind of rude? like, if I had a male friend who was suffering for reasons that were clearly related to gender, I think it would be incomprehensibly cruel of me not to tell him "there are other options for you, you can always live your live in a way that makes you happier, you should give some thought as to what that would look like," but I would never tell him "You Are A Trans Woman"--not because I hate trans women and want to keep them closeted, but because it would be presumptuous of me to assign him a particular identity based on my own assumptions, no matter what those assumptions are

[jewelkat16]

The bad guys? Have you seen what Iran does to its people? Just because the asker is an idiot doesn't mean you're smart. And it wasn't "Iraq" it was an Islamist terrorist group named Al-Qaeda. Osama Bin Laden was from Saudi Arabia. Most of the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. The leader was from Egypt. Some were from the UAE. One from Lebanon. You can easily learn this. You're all morons, and your teacher should be fired. Blocklist.

[shofarsogood]

Anyone who wants to simplify war to "these are bad guys and these are good guys" shouldn't be teaching young people. That's a level of ignorance I don't think any teacher should have.

[dadbot]

Just in case

[sappire-charizard]

I’m actually going to reblog a thing just because this is really important.

As someone who has epilepsy and used to have several grand mal seizures a day, I’d also like to add that “offer help” can range anywhere from keeping the person calm to explaining to them where they are and what they were doing to even just telling them they should sit and rest for a while longer (lack or coordination is common, and it can be hard to walk straight or see clearly).

It’s okay for them to take up to a half hour to fully regain their bearings and sort out what they were doing prior to the seizure. Just answer any questions calmly and be there for support.

If they come around and you start to panic or shake them or ask them what the heck is wrong with them they are going to freak out and panic too.

I cannot stress it enough that this is bad.

If someone has a seizure and they come out of it, please. please stay calm. They are likely disoriented and confused, even if it’s only for a minute or two, and you don’t want them panicking on top of that because they can have another seizure as a result.

[shofarsogood]

Just to add: if the seizure lasts longer than 15 minutes, call an ambulance. There’s a good chance of brain damage at that point and they need medical attention. That’s why you time seizures.

[yamelcakes]

Actually it’s an emergency when it’s longer than five minutes— set a timer not a stopwatch. More than three minutes for young children is an emergency. You should also call an ambulance if another seizure follows the first.

[storyweavingspider]

Heartwarming! Man pissing on subway stairs genders you correctly, mortified he was doing that in front of a woman

[storyweavingspider]

He was doing it while on the phone and said “so long as there ain’t a woman around it’s fine” then turned around, saw me, and went “oh shit!” And started apologizing

[dead-dove-ble]

Actually you SHOULD make problematic content. You SHOULD explore dark or taboo topics. You SHOULD have a space where you can cope with your traumas or explore sensitive topics in a way that doesn't hurt anyone.

[shiptillyoudie]

Also you should make problematic content for funsies. You don't need to have had trauma or need to be coping in order to explore dark creativity. You can just be a human who wants to explore dark and taboo topics because you want to. That's completely normal, btw.

Every single person on this planet thinks about dark and taboo things. It's literally the most normal thing in the world.

Go draw the horror porn and be free.

Low key, if you’ve advertised yourself with AI you just said: “I do not care enough about what I am doing to bother putting in effort.” which bodes very badly for the quality of whatever you are trying to sell me.
