i hate when rich people condescend with the whole 'money can't buy happiness' argument like listen. just because buying your fourth car didn't fill the void in your deluded disconnected-from-reality life doesn't mean not having to worry about food/ bills/medicine wouldn't greatly improve the mental health of literally everyone else on the planet

[durnesque-esque]

Fun fact: they've done studies and money DOES buy happiness, but it tops out after a certain amount (nowadays around $500,000)

So yeah, having food / bills / medicine & a fair amount of leisure covered by income DOES buy happiness, but excess wealth depletes the effect exponentially.

oh also? An absolutely freaky thing I'm seeing yt leftists do?

STOP TRYING TO TRACK DOWN PROTESTORS THAT DO 'BADASS STUFF'. STOP POSTING ABOUT IT ONLINE.

PEOPLE FUCKING DIE.

AND IT'S USUALLY SOMEONE MELANATED.

THE GOVERNMENT IS WATCHING YOU FUCKING DUMBASS.

y'all are so stuck on egoistic heroism that every time someone does something 'sick' at a protest you wanna turn them in to the next celebrity to have a parasocial relationship with and then they go missing.

Tf is wrong w y'all.

[blackwoolncrown]

Friendly reminder that this man is fucking dead.

[crypticarchivist]

If you try to praise or draw attention to a specific protester for doing something photogenic THAT IS SNITCHING.

NO YOU *DON’T* KNOW THEM.

Do you want to be politically pure in theory or help your neighbor. Is it fruitless to help your neighbor because there's no Perfect Pure way to do it ?

[kingxanthesecond]

Honestly I would rather be politically pure. Your neighbors would never help you, so why help them?

[cupcraft]

Youre who this post is talking about. Individualism and elitism is not going to help the revolution and grassroots activism and mutual aid.

[gean-grey-blog]

When the pandemic hit this old church lady joined our tattooed queer leftist mutual aid group bc her church soup kitchen closed. We shrugged and told her she was welcome as long as she didn't proselytize.

That woman never gendered me right once, but she shut up about Jesus long enough to feed people next to us bc she cared more about action than ideology. She also had a whole network of other church people who helped contribute $ to ingredients. We provided more and better meals together than in our "correct" silos

That's how any of us get out of any of this

Ra, God of the Sun

Fungus has done so much for humanity. Penicillin. Radiation cleanup. Delicious mushrooms. Deadly mushrooms. Psychadelic mushrooms. And now my boy RA has chosen the humble mold spores as his vessel through which to cure cancer.

Free mass transit, paid family leave, childcare, and zero tuition or we disappear you into a foreign prison cell for a social media meme.

Your choice!

I know I’m a small blog but if you live in the US, please take 5 minutes to write to congress with the link below to support fair compensation for graduate students and postdocs.

We do a lot of work and get paid very little, despite teaching university classes and doing research on the very frontiers of our fields (I have to prove my thesis is new, useful work before they’ll give me a PhD). Both of these are huge sources of revenue for universities, and we don’t see enough of that.

I know grad students who live in their cars, skip meals for money, and put off necessary medical costs.

Tell congress we need guidelines now for fair compensation.

Graduate students and postdocs are essential to the research and development workforce, conducting research across labs, fields,...

This was sent to me and put together by the American Physical Society (APS) Forums of Grad Student Affairs (FGSA) and Government Affairs. Their material is based on the Physics community, but it extends much beyond that.

The pre-written message is very specific to physics grads and postdocs, but please feel free to personalize.

Poverty IS a policy choice. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
