Bullshit and Politics

The Germans really cooked making "Hobbyless behaviour" an insult. It is both devastating, applicable to a wide range of people and behaviours, and doesn't resort to swearing.

Man ranting on the internet about the Superbowl halftime show or complaining that something is "woke"? Hobbyless Behaviour. Girls mocking another girl for not looking right? Hobbyless Behaviour. Mindless vandalism? Hobbyless Behaviour.

It is more powerful than "get a life" or the English "You're Sad" because it gets to the central point of the matter, and that is wonderful. Danke, Deutsch.

so sorry for derailing. but i knew i recognized that face from somewhere.

you know even if a homeless person or a starving person is in that position because of their own "bad decisions" i don't care. it doesn't matter. no supposed financial misstep is enough to condemn someone to homelessness or poverty.

Search and rescue teams do not ask if a hiker was properly equipped and prepared before they go out to look for them. EMTs do not ask if a driver checked their mirrors before they take them to the hospital. Lifeguards do not ask if a swimmer made a mistake by going into a riptide before they dive in after them. Judgement doesn't help anyone, including you, the person doing the judging. Just help people. Just shut the fuck up and help people.

[spoopyandtired]

people are allowed to make mistakes. we're supposed to. We're human. Those mistakes should not mean dying or being deprived of basic needs like shelter or food.

It also shouldn't mean having to be deprived of things that make you happy, beyond just the basic needs of survival.

First snow

TIL in 1915, San Diego hired a “rain maker” who used a secret mix of chemicals to “attract rain” for $10,000, payable if he filled their reservoir. It rained for most of January, destroying bridges, dams, and causing 20 deaths.

[general-thinks]

His name was Charles Hatfield and I’m not saying that you shouldn’t make a deal with him, but I am saying that you should be very clear about the terms and conditions

[prokopetz]

I think we need to fully appreciate the fact that the reason he “looks like the Devil” is that many depictions of the Devil in American popular media are specifically caricatures of this guy. Like, imagine being a con man and fucking up your hustle so badly that for more than a century afterwards people start drawing the Devil to look like you.

[fridge-full-of-feels]

The timing… omg

[immediatebreakfast]

Sorry to be clueless, but is this good or bad? I know that Guillermo del Toro is a genius regarding movies, and that he will do the story justice... But horny? Why? Are those actors specialized in horny tension?

[fridge-full-of-feels]

I can’t say what their chemistry will be like together, but here’s what I do know about them:

Andrew Garfield has been wanting to play a bisexual Spider-Man for ages. He’s also been shown to be very comfortable kissing other men in public.

And Oscar Isaac really wanted a gay romance in Star Wars between his character, Poe, and Finn.

Then you have to factor in Del Toro’s monsterfucker energy, and this is a recipe for something very horny about to happen, if not in the film, then on AO3.

[immediatebreakfast]

Oh wow, it is the perfect recipe for the horny™.

[nehirose]

oh this is DEFINITELY going to awaken something in the collective conscience.
