In 44BC it took 60 senators to stab Julius Caesar to death. Crazy to think that nowadays, thanks to modern technology, he could be killed by one senator running him over with a snowplow

i’m not gonna tone the language of people who’ve been shown from the moment of birth that their existence is — at best — considered an impediment to colonial expansion and at worst an intrinsically parasitic and imminent threat to civilization itself

Pro-natalists: you need to have at least 10 kids Normal people: why, are you expecting half of them to die before puberty due to lack of modern health and sanitation? Pro-natalists: you're never gonna believe what we also advocate

Search your camera roll for hell

The commentary track from the dvds is just whedon saying "I was obsessed with lost cause stuff and westerns about disaffected former Confederate soldiers so I just put it in space and filed the slavery off and did it." Over and over again

The entire show is lowkey lost causeism apologia because Joss read the Killer Angels while he was developing the show and it’s weird that no one ever mentions it because joss talked about that A LOT

Really giving this energy

Thinking of how both Indochina and Iran are rich, diverse regions which exist as geographic, cultural and economic bridges between the lands and peoples surrounding them, and how two generations of US leadership believed they could bury their dreams of self-determination under a deluge of bombs.

How different countries hype themselves up at the World Baseball Classic: Team Canada: wear hockey jerseys Team Italy: drink espresso Team DR: dance Team USA: invite Seal Team 6 member to make speech, the same Seal Team 6 member who also told young men on Twitter they would be his "concubines"

Oof

Between 2/28 and 3/12, Israel killed 687 people in Lebanon, including 52 women and 98 children. If you don't want to find yourself living through WWIII, boycott the country that's dragging us into WWIII. #FreePalestine #GazaHolocaust

What is the list ML revolutions which were made *outside* the context of either massive internal warfare / suffering and/or GLOBAL armed conflict and mass death?

Oh neat, I had no idea. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hob...

You don't get to paper over the fact that they are bigots. They knowingly wanted to strip minorities and women of any historical representation. They killed projects simply because they had ethnic identities and genders attached.

No, I am not worried about 'declining' birth rates, I accept them as post-modern birth rates, the birth rates that naturally happen once the conditions are set that children can be expected to survive to adulthood reliably and that women are allowed to be educated and become full citizens.

And I know which one Israel left millions of scattered across southern Lebanon in 2006 out of nothing but hate and to no tactical advantage after they lost the war.

crushing it (hit my pinky toe on the table)

Remember this lmao she was there probably on a USAID NED sngo sponsored type pro-ukraine event and they TOOK HER BODYGUARD AND SEND HIM TO DIE.

It’s St. Patrick’s weekend which means you have to watch The Fugitive or else the little people will frame you for the brutal murder of your wife

Philippe Chancel's photos of the Nazi hunting Rockabilly street gangs of 80s Paris.

me: if z is the length of a slice and a is the area of the pie, then pi(zz)=a PhD advisor: this is what you’ve been working on for three and a half years?

can this be a solution?

the small paper where I started out used to run a "Most Wanted" section with names and photos supplies by the police department we regularly got phone calls complaining that the photos were of the wrong people

There's long been a sub-genre of Israeli entertainment dedicated to this. "Shooting and crying" they call it. We have it here in the U.S. too of course. I'm reminded of the old joke by Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle. www.welcometohellworld.com/we-deserve-it/

Sheriffs across the country make it a point to publish booking photos of every person they arrest and they run them in the local paper.

Workers! You see how mortally terrified are our ministers at the working people acquiring knowledge!

Haitian woman, 31, dies alone at Pittsburgh bus stop days after ICE released her to the streets far from home to perish. Rest in power, Daphy Michel: migrantinsider.com/p/the-loneso...

The US has historically had a particularly strong hatred of brown and Black disabled people; and has normalized, encouraged and accelerated discrimination and violence against us, and the ICE/Trump era has only turbo charged the underlying racism, ableism and xenophobia

These little fucking Nazis

“If you're American, you've almost certainly heard about how Indigenous reservations were and are located on whatever land the US doesn't want anyway. That they're just a way to whisk away undesirables until the land becomes useful to the US. That's the two-state solution.”

My baby had a severe allergic reaction to playing peekaboo. I had to take her to the ICU.

I don’t think the targets of this reasoning fail to appreciate that claims of inevitability cut both ways; rather, the question is why only one party’s violence is not just tolerated but praised (see Ari Shavit’s praise and endorsement of ethnic cleansing in the New Yorker).

oh what, like uve never sent 2500 marines to seize a trade route thats older than the invention of the wheel. u miss every shot u dont take, idiot. they dont teach u that at west point???

the most insulting thing over the past several years has been the frequent implication (and occasional outright pronouncement) that people continuing to give a shit about covid are *choosing* to do so instead of being increasingly backed into a corner by choices other people are free to make

i also know talking about it carries a certain risk of me being held up as another sad example of someone choosing perpetual isolation after a long-concluded pandemic broke his brain, but my options are potentially endangering my chronically ill wife vs. *not doing that* there was never a choice

There is a reason I started calling establishment dems professional losers. The money isn’t in representing people. It’s in preventing people who would represent people from winning.

>it is the 1980s >the Russians are mired in a big war against a neighbor >there's a tanker war in the Hormuz strait >US ships are firing at Iran >the USN realizes it's MCM capabilities are completely inadequate after years of under investments >Trump is talking about taking Kharg Island

Uh actually in communism there will be fires and people won’t all have the exact same building

Is the era of embarassing online personal branding almost over

31 year old Alexia Moore has been charged with murder for using the abortion pill to end her pregnancy. Georgia has also charged her with possession of a dangerous drug & possession of a class two controlled substance. They’re criminalizing pregnancy. They want to control our bodies.

Just gonna throw this out there... the US doesn't lose multiple KC-135s in wars that it's winning.

Pause. Read this with seriousness. The US-zionist entity is expanding its genocide. Every hour, more help is needed. Every hour, our inattention becomes more deadly. Every day, help evaporates. Below are links to help Lebanese people survive genocide. Pick (1). Be its champion (I’ll explain).

Jeremiah Wright shit all over again, why should he or his wife be responsible for anything other people say? Tuberville directly equated this man to Bin Laden the other day, then Politico was corrected by HIM doubling down on his Islamaphobia. Like, who cares about this shit.
