there is something so darkly comical about tumblr potentially outliving twitter

tumblr, which is held together with duct tape and madness, run by three raccoons in blood stained Yahoo! hats and a handful of crabs, its only discernible source of income the sale of shoelaces from an inside joke so inside no one knows the original source anymore and fake blue checkmarks... that website still lives on

truly the cockroach of social media and I love it for that

military recruiter: so what got you guys interested in the marine corps

enormous horde of hagfish, ispods and bottom-feeding crustaceans: oh. uh. is that how you pronounce it

[red-revival]

[Id: tumblr tags which say “can someone explain the joke pleasie”.]

I got you! Marine corps is said like ‘Marine Core’- the hagfish, isopods, and crustaceans were just lookin for a dead body to eat and thought it was pronounced ‘Marine Corpse’

“To claim that hunter-gatherers perceive their environment as a “wilderness”—in contrast to a domesticity that one would be hard put to define—is to deny that they are aware that, in the course of time, they modify the local ecology by their techniques of subsistence. Over recent years, for example, Aboriginals have been protesting to the Australian government against its use of the term “wilderness” to qualify the territories that they occupy and by so doing frequently justifying the creation of natural reserves that they do not want. The notion of a “wilderness,” with all its connotations of terra nullius, of an original and preserved naturalness, an ecosystem to be protected against the degradations liable to be introduced by human beings, certainly runs contrary to the Aboriginals’ own concept of the environment and the multiple relations that they have established with it, and above all it ignores the subtle transformations that they have produced in it. As a leader of the Jawoyn of the Northern Territory said, when part of their land was converted into a natural reserve, “Nitmiluk national park is not a wilderness…, it is a human artefact. It is a land constructed by us over tens of thousands of years through our ceremonies and ties of kinship, through fire and through hunting.” Clearly, for the Aboriginals, as for other hunting peoples, the opposition between wild and domesticated is not very meaningful, not only because of their lack of domesticated animals but above all because they inhabit the entire environment as a spacious and familiar dwelling place, rearranged to suit successive generations with such discretion that the touch of its inhabitants becomes almost imperceptible.”

the cia owns the international dope trade that's how they finance themselves so the senate can't control them with budget cuts. pretty sure they took over italy's heroin market right after ww2 and then just kept things going but its been a while since i dug into the research material

I recommend Gary Webb's Dark Alliance. He's the first (I think) journalist to expose the CIA-Contra link to American public and he died a gruesome death in return! (RIP)

Yes, perhaps there are better book about this out there but I haven't read them yet.

[intactics-deactivated20211231]

yeah, RIP to Gary Webb who "comitted suicide" by shooting himself in the back of the head twice 💔😔

Do you guys remember this, literally what was it for? it feels like a fever dream because there’s no explanation
