Not surprised by this at all. Corporations before people in this country. If we still exist 100 years from now, we will still be unraveling the absolute shit show of the last 11 months.

CPAC Head Says Iranian Schoolgirls Are Better Dead Than β€œin a Burqa” Leading Republicans don’t seem to care about the bombing of a girls’ school in Iran.

Disabled people tried to warn you.

We said the β€œbetter off dead” narrative being weaponized against us would be used for other groups of people.

The fascists won’t ever stop. They see everyone else as less than. Expendable. Not worthy of life.

Its eugenics on a massive scale

Ohio has approved a $4.5 million sales tax exemption for a data center expansion project. The project will create 10 new full-time jobs.

I binged it last night and have a 2000s hangover. Like wine coolers and sunburnt low rise mid drifts.
Lotta narcissists deflecting and victims that will never have the chance to hold them accountable. I regret watching it all. I felt physically sick at the end.

Whenever people ask me β€œwhat radicalized you” it’s $600. $600 I could not pay for a cracked tooth removal. So I sat in pain until I could afford it at 25. Working 75 hours a week trying to break even. I didn’t have a savings account. I had no money. I was in pain and 600 was too much to alleviate it

And saying that to a fucking ROYAL elf is such a fuck you. I love the pettiness. I love the linguistic slap. I love that I imagine Bobby hill saying it to Boomhaur. Anyway. Enjoy your yearly rewatch friends

Then after Legolas is making an especially shitty comment in elvish, Frodo is like β€œyou have kind of a hick accent for an elf”

Rewatching LOTR hoping to take lessons into the new year. My favorite part of part 1 is knowing that Legolas is a shit talking bitch in elvish in the book and Frodo understands everything he is saying like a linguist sitting quietly in the corner.

comhghairdeas UachtarΓ‘n Connolly! Mna na hEireann agus Stait na hAontaithe stand with you. There’s a lot of unhappiness in Ireland right now and it’s a direct result of late stage, capitalism and corporate interest coming before the people. I hope the next seven years will bring change to that.

Hannah Arendt said 'The death of human empathy is one of the earliest & most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism'

We saw the recent cruelty of MAGA denying empathy to Melissa Hortman

Empathy for Kirkβ€”not because he ever acted like a decent humanβ€”but because we are decent humans

Fascism succeeds when we debate the worth of others

When we decide that it’s β€œok” if certain people suffer

That they β€œdeserve” it

Abandoning red states because they voted for Trump is playing into the hands of fascists

Not to mention all the children who have no say, no agency & need protection

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Sometimes books for kids are the best learning tools! 27 words for field is also an amazing work by this author if you want to start learning Gaeilge.

Not my best picture, but holy crap was this good. Grilled asparagus, burrata, crispy shallot-garlic-pine nut in oil with honey and red pepper flakes, and parsley and mint on top. 10 out of 10

I'm not a lawyer and I'm very tired, so excuse me if this is a stupid question:

But if the principles of birthright citizenship *were* ever dismantled ... what's the theory for how citizenship would be determined?

The US is trying to ban masks, mRNA vaccines, dismantle healthcare and social supports and arranging to keep lists of people with autism (and possibly other disabilities).

This is not how you tackle the chronic illness epidemic. This is how you begin a nationwide eugenics program.

I've managed to live without Amazon. I used to get Amazon deliveries practically daily. Now I just plan ahead a little and order stuff direct. I realized I put up with a lot of shitty products I don't even really need just because they were shipped to me quickly

Can we get more of this? β€œThe Japanese American National Museum will β€˜scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI.
