They have turned the Palestinians into actual Guinea pigs for the military industrial complex.

We will see the robots and miserable remote controlled dogs at the next big BLM protest on American soil soon enough.

We're in Black Mirror territory

[globalconsciousevolution]

Remember years ago when these robots were being developed and leftists pleaded with people to understand that their inevitable eventual use is as weapons. They are not "cute doggos".

[is-the-owl-video-cute-deactivat]

Worth noting that this was literally in black mirror years ago.

the cruelty of reality can no longer be surpassed by fiction it seems.

Anyway since they’re literally using civilians to test weapons, can we start comparing them to the third reich yet, or is that still “too far”?

You ever meet a kid so shitty you're immediately like "I want to adopt you as my own so I can instill into you the values of dignity and compassion and respect for self and others that your guardians have so obviously neglected, so that you may escape the unhappy future that lies ahead of you with all the smoldering ashes of wasted potential" but also, like. I punt you like a football

Where to get your Girl Scout Cookies:

Just a reminder that if you are someone who wants to eat Girl Scout Cookies, and you don't have local Girl Scouts to buy them from, and you are realising you can just go online and get them from the Internet, Troop 6000 is...

"...a first-of-its-kind program designed to serve families living in temporary housing in the New York City shelter system.

"Each week, Girl Scouts meet in shelters across the city to take part in activities that help them make new friends, earn badges, and learn to see themselves as leaders. All fees, uniforms, trips, and program materials are provided at no cost.

"As a permanent fixture of the program, we also established the Troop 6000 Transition Initiative, which supports Girl Scouts and their families as they transition to permanent housing. The average stay for a family in a city shelter is 18 months. Remaining connected to the community and opportunities introduced to them through Troop 6000 can help facilitate a successful transition for girls and young people, and it is essential they continue to receive the financial support that allows them to do so."

Click on the link to learn about it and order cookies.

rick riordan has his faults but he does know how to handle a main character who is like. supremely op. like yeah percy can make hurricanes with his mind but he'd rather go smoke weed with his girlfriend and his mom so he's not that big of a threat .

[cannabiscomrade]

So Arizona launched an “education hotline” that allows “concerned parents” to report “””critical race theory””” and other things like ~gender identity~ being taught in the classroom

It would be a shame if the number and email were spread to bad actors looking to prank call the AZ Department of Education

602-771-3500 or empower @ azed .gov 🤡

Horne said two staff members are sorting through the calls, and two investigators are working on credible leads.

[yeah-yeah-beebiss-1]

and for the love of god, don’t just spam it with memes or le funny shrek jokes or whatever, they’ll just hang up

make plausible-sounding reports for things that don’t actually exist, so that they actually have to waste time/resources investigating false leads - the goal is to waste time they would otherwise be using to do their jobs, not to get tumblr clout for being an epic troll

[neko-setsuka]

So apparently the internet article said the superintendent wouldn't be deterred by the prank calls because they would 'taper off eventually'. It'd be a real shame if this post stayed in circulation via queues so they get a consistent list of prank calls to filter through. 😇

[ID: Poster utilizing the colors of the Palestinian flag: red, green, black, and white. The background is white, and the content of the poster is inside of a black rectangle. The poster reads, "All Eyes on Rafah. 1.4 Million Palestinians are in mortal danger from Israeli bombing. They have nowhere else to go."

The words are in all capital letters. The words "All Eyes On" are in green, the word "Rafah" is in red, and the rest of the words are in black. Between the word "Rafah" and the rest of the message, there is an illustration of an eye with a red sclera, white iris, and green pupil, looking slightly toward the bottom right. End ID]

i love when characters don't get to die

[remnantglow]

this is about villains/antagonists/general horrible people who finally face up to what they've done. especially if they try to pull the good ole "Dramatically Does One Good Thing To Redeem Themselves And Dies," but despite their best efforts they DON'T die. like yes motherfucker there's no easy way out for you, there's only the slow, awkward and painful process of learning to live with yourself. of learning to live with the weight of your mistakes. you get a second chance regardless of if you think you deserve it. you get to try to make amends and do good. you get to live.

[remnantglow]

this is also about every self-sacrificial bastard of a protagonist who puts themselves in harm's way again and again and again to a wildly unhealthy and unnecessary degree. see, there's something so compelling to me in the unspoken suicidality of repeated heroic self-sacrifice, and the thing about implicitly suicidal characters is that i want them to live. and that can be used to make a death so much more tragic and impactful - noble sacrifices and last stands certainly can and have been done beautifully - but there's also something special to me in seeing such a character make it. because you'd die for the people you love, yes, but would you live for them?

“But what does Grover bring to the table? He’s just the comedy relief character.” Grover is juggling the role of babysitter, mediator, and emotional manipulator and he cracks jokes too? Give him a BREAK

i went to get my t-shot yesterday and it took me an hour and a half to get to the clinic and as soon as i got on the bed the nurse dropped my t-shot and it broke and now they're trying to make me pay for the replacement. i think the fuck not lmao

[beaft]

update: i phoned the clinic and was icily polite at a receptionist, who got very flustered and said no less than five times, "well, that's certainly a conversation we can have at some point!"

no, actually, i think this is a conversation we'll be having now, and the outcome of that conversation will be you paying for my medication. hope that clears things up :)

[beaft]

never underestimate the power of just being kind of a nuisance

[vaspider]

For everybody else's future reference: pharmacies and clinics have insurance coverage for damaged and unusable medications like this.

Trying to push this off on a patient isn't just wrong, it's double-dipping.

Look at this IDF soldier destroying a children's toy shop with such rabid rage.

The hate they feel towards Palestinian kids is demonic.

Three months, that’s all it took THREE MONTHS for McDonald’s Malaysia to lose $1 million, Starbucks to lose $11 billion in stock value, Disney’s shares to fall by 0.59% on 12/10/2023, KFC to lose its stronghold on Egypt etc. I cannot empathise this enough, all this happened in THREE MONTHS.

Turkey's parliament removed Coca-Cola and Nestle products from its restaurants, McDonald’s Malaysia is suing BDS Malaysia, in a desperate attempt to win back customers Starbucks is offering multiple discounts and sales etc. Boycotts work, keep up the pressure!

[deanwinchesterapologist]

i hate this popular sentiment that's like "nobody cares about your baby" "nobody cares what you had for dinner" "nobody cares about your spotify wrapped" like ok why are you on social media following people whose lives you don't care about. there's an easy fix for that
