Every time you go in a public place and something ISN’T disgusting it’s because somebody cleaned it. Every time you feel comfortable using a public bathroom or sitting at a restaurant table or setting something on a gas station counter or playing on a playground it’s because somebody cleaned it.

Thank you to everyone who cleans the world, especially those who are underpaid and under appreciated.

[my-life-is-a-sidequest]

I worked in a supermarket for 7 years and I don't think I can understate just how much cleaning you had to do for it to look clean (it very often where not in the places you aren't supposed to see)

[sandersstudies]

True for food service, retail establishments, gyms, outdoor areas, schools, religious buildings, office buildings, etc. People usually only notice when a space is NOT clean, meanwhile every time a space is clean it’s only because of the diligent work of janitors, maintenance staff, custodians, parks workers, or volunteers.

Re-upping my post from yesterday...

...because what Trump just released as the 'peace' document is a straight-up surrender...by the US.

Sometimes homeless people will be off-putting and rude and demand more of your attention than you're comfortable giving. I promise you, if you had to deal with a fraction of what they do on a daily basis, you'd become off-putting too. Sit with your discomfort and direct your anger at the systems which made them homeless, not at the person in front of you who is struggling.

I don't want to be a teacher but I do like the idea of having a big book of Short Stories to Fuck You Up on a high shelf, secured with a chain, which I get down and dust off and unlock and read from on special request, and then a group of young people go away from it forever shaken.

Some of the stories would be...

Give Me Your Heart by Joyce Carol Oates

The Chaser by John Collier

The Veldt by Ray Bradbury

The Teacher by Paul Tremblay

Feed by Richard Matheson

Hand in Glove by Elizabeth Bowen

From A to Z, The Chocolate Alphabet by Harlan Ellison

Monster by Kelly Link

“A French lawmaker torched President Donald Trump and his top officials in a scathing indictment of his second term in the White House. Senator Claude Malhuret, who was described last year by the New York Times as “Trump’s European nemesis,” linked the Iran war to the U.S. president’s appearance in the Jeffrey Epstein files and shamed American legislators for failing to impeach him for clearly unconstitutional conduct. “A year ago, here in France, I compared Trump’s presidency to Nero’s Court,” Malhuret began. “I was wrong – it’s the miracle court. An anti-vaxxer, former heroin addict as minister of health [Robert F. Kennedy Jr.], a climate skeptic minister of economy [Scott Bessent], an alcoholic TV anchor, minister of the armed forces [Pete Hegseth], an old Qatar agent, minister of justice [Pam Bondi], a groupie of Putin, minister of national security [Tulsi Gabbard].” “A Turkish proverb says, ‘When a clown settles in a palace, he does not become king, it is the palace that becomes a circus,” Malhuret continued. “This great team has decided to create a competitor to the UN. Since the creation of the Board of Peace, Trump has triggered more military strikes than Biden during his entire term.” “Every time the Epstein affair resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world and cause a distraction,” he added. “Bomb more to win more.””

— Trump just got ‘the most magnificently savage dismantling’ in France’s parliament
