Life's for the Living @onedayiwontrun - Tumblr Blog

On Saturday I said to my partner, as I have said for months, "A ten thousand dollar a year raise would solve so many of my problems."

As of this morning I was reluctantly looking for jobs because I love my job and don't want to leave it, but see: $10k raise problem solver.

As of noon today this was no longer an issue, because my boss called me with the news that I was getting a $10K merit raise.

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. This is roughly $200 extra per paycheck. Enough to pay off debt faster, rebuild my savings, and spend a weekend a month in Milwaukee getting obscenely laid. The sex I'm going to have on $200 extra per paycheck. You can't even.

May all of you get the $10K raise your soul has yearned for. And whatever level of sex you can be satisfied with for $200.

There's a coffee shop near me that has two signs posted on the door.

One says "Students! Looking for a great part-time job that works around your school hours? Apply inside!"

The other one says "No under 18s allowed after 5:00pm without an adult."

And I'm just like, damn, I wonder if "you can be a servant but never a customer" is a well-known hallmark of systematic discrimination or anything. Like come on. How do you not see this

Y’all also need to know that Doug Jones was in Smash Mouth’s music video for “All Star” as Pencil Head:

Indeed, he is in an unexpectedly large amount of everything! You never know where he’ll turn up, being spindly and mesmerizing.

that was a very expensive superbowl ad

Do not for one fucking minute believe this will meaningfully stop your stupid fucking internet camera from being used by law enforcement or adtech data companies. This is one partnership being (allegedly) cancelled for now.

Get rid of your stupid fucking internet camera.

Yeah, this is a win in that it is a big FUCK YOU to ring and flock, and a sign to others that profiting of collaboration with a fascist regime is not popular with 'consumers'. But it doesn't mean ring cameras aren't still dangerous to you and your community. Get rid of them.

The lesson of avatar was never “killing bad people makes you just as bad as them” it was “you cannot be letting fascists dictate what counts as a win or loss” guys like come on it’s been 20 years

Katara doesn’t forgive Yon Rha and hug him and dry him off and walk him home she leaves him scared and sniveling and crying in the mud but she leaves him alive because she realized in that moment that she was only doing this because she felt like she had to. She hates this man, therefore she should want to kill him, right? The narrative isn’t saying wow Katara killing a mass murdering fascist dickwad is just as bad as said dickwad killing an innocent wife and mother during a raid on her home, it’s saying wow isn’t it fucked up that this little girl has been forced to carry this deep seated anger in her for most of her life to the point where the only outlet she believes she has for it is killing a man in cold blood? And like… yeah! That is pretty fucked!

#the point is not all killing is immoral#it's MURDER IS TRAUMATIC

I think a lot of people have got the idea that killing a truly bad person or someone who's wronged them would be empowering and even therapeutic, but I think the truth is if you are anything like a decent person, directly and by your own hand causing the death of another human being would cause you deep distress and revulsion. People who've served in wars don't only get PTSD because other people were trying to kill them.
