i’ll reblog resources and info on how trump’s fucking us over of course but it really is so telling that a lot of these people weren’t posting the same things when biden was president. instead we were getting all these long posts about how he was great and progressive and Doing His Best. like we all conveniently forgot he was the one who stopped hospitals from honestly reporting COVID death numbers and let dozens of transphobic bills pass and let roe v wade get shredded and pursued oil pipelines and endorsed cop city and deported more people than trump and let boeing get away with openly assassinating a guy and enthusiastically funded palestinian genocide and
started ignoring the bird flu resurgence to begin with and let food corporations lie to inflate prices and didn’t push all that hard for student debt relief and endorsed the use of militarized police against students and endorsed mask bans and stood by as terrorism charges were brought against people passing out leaflets and
if this system supposedly still works then nothing happens overnight. you can’t say one day that biden had no influence or power and then as soon as trump takes over a day later he’s an unstoppable dictator. both of them work completely within the framework of the United States as a colonial imperialist empire, it’s just one of them pretended he couldn’t do anything about anything to make leftists think he was still on their side
1) a very simple and genuine “i like your shoelaces”, which tells me that you are either a lesbian or a very cool ally
2) “i like your shoelaces” followed by the pronounced grimace of one recalling their past sins, which tells me that you were a 2012 tumblr user. i now hold the power in this conversation and you are at my mercy.
if you know about 2012 tumblr how do you hold any power in any conversation
well, stucky fanfic url, the trick is to not let them know that you are also cringe
If anyone is more interested in the work behind the Gävle goat there is apparently a documentary here, unfortunately mostly in swedish, but what I found most charming is that you can climb into the goat through a door in it’s behind.
And if you ever wondered: yes, according to rumors a couple have fucked in the Gävle goat. In 1966 in fact, the first year it was up and before any kind of arson. I don’t know why they threw that into the documentary but this goat has layers is all I’m saying.
just imagining going for a quickie in the goat and suddenly you’re surrounded by flames
love that i was presented with the fact that the goat is a fuck spot so quickly that i hadn’t even had time to come to that question naturally on my own.
me: oh you can go inside the goat? wow look you can see the wooden support system on the inside that’s so-
this post: AND YOU CAN FUCK IN IT WERE YOU WONDERING IF YOU COULD FUCK IN IT BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE DONE THAT
me: i…ok. i need Time to process this i’m-

blocked because your interpretation of that character doesn’t match the way they act in my bedtime narrative i imagine when i’m falling asleep every night
Fucked up that there’s a whole generation of young people who talk like this. This is the kind of thing uptight old church ladies are supposed to say. Young people are supposed to like edgy, subversive, and problematic shit.
Me liking cheeseburgers makes me share a psychological profile with sexual predators too, this shit is ridiculous

since it’s a scary time to be trans: refuge restrooms is an app which maps gender-neutral/single-stall restrooms. it’s community-mapped, so it’s possible you might be the first person to log the restroom locations, but hopefully it’ll help some people.
please reblog this post if you’ve got trans followers. stay safe.
For my non-trans followers: please consider getting the app just so you can add neutral restrooms to the map when you run across them. Simple way to help.
This is absolutely still a thing, for anyone wondering!
If a company writes off a product for a tax break it should be public domain. Made a movie but wrote it off? Then the whole public, who is subsidizing your taxes, should get a free public domain copy.
That distopian company that made bionic eyes that shut down leaving blind patients with useless tech and brain implants should have at least be given the programming so a community could form to keep it going. Protecting the code serves only to give the current owner an opportunity to profit from it if they wanted to (they said they don’t) and to keeps the victims with unsupported brain modifications.
Discontinued products should have their designs published for repair or modification purposes.
[ID: A four panel comic, featuring a grey character and a white character
Panel 1: Grey says “Stop pirating our products”. Their expression is neutral.
Panel 2: White responds with “Then sell them to me.” They have a calm expression.
Panel 3: Grey has the same neutral expression as panel one, but has no response.
Panel 4: Grey is now visibly angry over having no response to White’s request. /END ID}
This isn’t a “leak”, this is just wild speculation. OP just took last year’s dates and assumed they’d be the same this year. They’re just trying to pretend that they have insider knowledge.
people will lap up britney in retrospect and mourn how they’d never fail her like that toxic 2000s celebrity culture did then say chappell roan is an ungrateful loathsome bitch for yelling at paparazzi + its like idk how to tell you but if you’d been there evidently you’d have been gleefully condemning britney with the worst of them
related theres a desperation for pop idols to be iconic to be divas but because any behaviour that could be read as vain or mean or controversial gets her instantaneously condemned as an unprofessional bitch when stans call something ‘iconic’ it’s usually just a pop star wearing a dress and looking thin
Bartender: thanks for stopping that bar fight, spiderman. Can I get you a drink? It’s on the house
Peter: thank you, but I can’t
Bartender: why not

Bartender, shook: oh, congratulations, boy or girl?

I’m seeing stuff in the notes about “Miles would do this” and I just want to say: you’re absolutely right. All Spider-folks across all universes share one (1) singular brain cell and most of the time it’s Gwen’s.
As the current author of Spider-Gwen, I can attest that Gwen has not seen the brain cell in years.
i don’t know why but i’m really amused by the winner of some ‘new kanji’ contest:
compare with the real kanji
座 (seat/gathering), but the two 人 (person) radicals have been moved from next to each other within the 土 (earth) radical to diagonally from each other, making this “social distance(d seating/gathering)”
This is hilarious, but to further the hilarity, I’d like to point to the fact that half of the “A rank” (runners up) for this contest also are related to 2020 epidemic jokes
First up we have:
Compare with
太
The original kanji means “to gain weight”. But it adds the
コ “ko” and ロ “ro” katakana symbols at the top to represent the weight you gain while staying home due to the corona virus.
Then we have:
Compare with
会
The original kanjij means “meeting”, but the lower radical is changed to look more like a “Z” to represent Zoom meetings. Thus, the new kanji means “web meetings” or “zoom calls”
And of course another social distancing one:
Compare with
話
This means “to talk” or “chat”, but it’s changed simply to show the two radicals social distancing from one another as we should also while holding conversations nowadays.
At least we can have some fun language humor despite all of this!
why did they start breeding busses to have flat faces. they can’t breathe
if you think this
looks better than this
you’re part of the problem. I’m so tired of all the excuses like “oh they look cuter!” “why do you care?” THEY CAN’T BREATHE. People intentionally breeding these vehicles to give them health problems because they “like how it looks” makes me so mad
Actually, flat faced buses can breathe fine! This is a case of convergent evolution, but the two types of buses are not genetically related.
Pointed nose buses are decended from trucks, and have their engines located in the front. This requires the larger nose in order to provide the space for the engine as well as adequate ventilation.
Meanwhile, flat nosed buses are actually descended from city buses (which in turn descend from trolleys), and were domesticated due to their greater maneuverability and capacity.
Contrary to popular belief, flat nosed busses typically do not experience breathing problems. Their engines are located in the back of the bus, with a large breathing vent located in the rear.
These buses also have a different structure to accommodate this change, typically including doubled back tires, a different weight distribution, and a change in location of the emergency egress door from the back to the left side.
Since watering means giving something water but milking means extracting milk from something that must means that water’s default is to give but milk’s default is to take. So water must be inherently kind while milk is cruel
(you already posted this one, but it wasn’t the full image. it was missing the bottom line entirely. and the very top “every teenagers #72” line too. here’s the full one)
