Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

It's worth reflecting today on what it took to end legal chattel slavery in the US. And it's worth remembering that the work stoppages of enslaved workers in the south crippled the Confederacy and were the largest and most effective labor action in US history.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

We should be able to keep two thoughts together in our heads at the same time: 1) Attacking Iran would be really dangerous. But also 2) Attacking Iran would be extremely dangerous.

Known for their sacred morning rituals, baristas are a revered third gender in western culture, neither male nor female. Baristas are said to be keepers of secret alchemical knowledge, and are typically given offerings in return for blessings of life, energy, and vigor.

The USA's E-4B "Doomsday" mobile military command HQ – a converted Boeing 747 equipped to withstand a nuclear blast – is said to be airborne. “Nightwatch” is only launched during high level crises, such as when planning to attack Iran in an undeclared war on behalf of Benjamin Netanyahu.

so funny that they didn't just blow up a rocket, they destroyed their entire launch pad while getting NO useful information whatsoever. just a complete disaster lmao

There is no evidence of this. It’s actually insane to believe that if you’re quiet and subtle people will notice you more. It’s entirely a rationalization of their deep-seated fear of conflict, their vanity about being annoying or loud, and their laziness about relearning old communication habits.

I transitioned at 29. I got there in the end. I didn't go through any legal means. I managed. Shouldn't have had to, though. We can tell each other that we'll take care of each other and pull through and also note that zealots and fanatics are inflicting untold suffering on us for no reason.

When we moved into this house a couple years ago, my very kind neighbor was like “oh FYI my husband is a concert cellist so if it’s ever too loud or disturbing you or anything, please just let us know.” You know what, hasn’t been a problem.

So Starship Ship 36 just detonated before the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.
