Today I was helping a dude at my work and when we were finished he looked at me and said' : 'I'm from Turkey and I think you are a very handsome man, especially with your [my distinct facial qualities].' And I thought to myself: this is the behavior we should normalise lol. Uplift our fellow homies out there.
Man I love no mow may. So many flowers and interesting plants starting to pop up everywhere. It's sad that it will be destroyed at the end of the month because of no fucking reason.
Just finished reading The Vegeterian by Han Kang. I think more people should read it but to say it was a fun book goes too far. Disturbing is a better word I guess.
Ultimately it is a critique of the societal role of women in (Korean) society. Also important was the idea that the ultimate enforcer of societal roles is violence and that those who will reject it will be subjected to violence, while at the same time receive another form of violence for not rejecting it.
Gathered all of my coworkers to discuss the making of a plan to undermine our management as our working conditions are horrendous. And we did come up with a proposal. If they won't listen or the answer isn't okay for us, we will take further action. And if that doesn't work, we will deny them their authority and start working on our own agreed upon terms.

I don't ever want to hear straight men talk about how others are insecure or whatever as they themselves constantly find themselves amazed by a dude that yells at them that 'LIONS HUNT, YOU ARE A LION' and then find themselves dipping their face and their nuts in an ice bath at 4 am. Real clown shit my dudes.
Belgian football cup final was yesterday with a notorious right wing club being one of the teams. Their hooligans went into one of the more infamous Brussels migrant areas and started beating people up.
A left wing protest of 20 people gets tracked with drones and stuff but this could happen, because why??? Some of those who burn crosses etc
Anyway last week was May Day and Vijay Prashad gave a nice speech at our rally. Afterwards I went to check the socdem speech and it was all 'they are taking your pensions and your rights blah blah' and I was like 'who is they? You're in the government man'
My hometown in The Netherlands, a real working class city, was hit with a PFAS scandal in which a company polluted the area for millions worth of damage, spreading cancerous waste in the air and water.
A marxist youtuber visited the town to talk to people and one of them went off like: 'they are fucking cancer sufferers, fucking typhoid rats, dirty antisocial cancerous scum' and I feel like that language pretty much describes how I was raised lol
