Here's that Scientific American article. I keep it in my bookmarks because it's one of the articles that easily disproves countless bullshit theories. Also an article my dumbass drumpf loving father refuses to read.
AOC and Bernie over here amassing entire legions of working class people and they're over here bashing themselves in the nuts. doing a straw poll with corporate doners pretending like it means fucking ANYTHING.
GODAMNIT THESE FUCKING DEMOCRATS ARE FUCKING MORONS.
nah fuck that. Bernie will go out in a blaze of glory, double middle fingers to the sky, falling straight from the oval office into a coffin after guaranteeing All Americans get equal access to universal healthcare and a secondary four year/vocational school education. He'll take money out of politics and raise taxes on the 1% so hard they'll revert back into normal fuckin people. He'll invest in High speed rail, green energy, while simultaneously legalizing weed.
The man has been working his whole life towards these goals, I say we help him get there.
Energy Transfer's co-founder and board chairman Kelcy Warren, who said in a video deposition that protesters had created "a total false narrative" about his company.
"It was time to fight back," he said.
Energy Transfer's lawyer Mr Cox told the court that Greenpeace had exploited the Dakota Access Pipeline to "promote its own selfish agenda".
Are you fucking kidding me with this bullshit? And a jury actually agreed with this insane garbage?
When this is happening to even the beautiful white women, you know shit's a thousand times worse for BIPOC... I know that we had issues with immigration during previous administrations, but they were nothing compared to this vile treatment.
Sometimes the Simpsons parodied things so well, that it's only later on in life that I realize iconic and hilarious Simpson moments were actually parodies.
The Cape Fear episode. The Citizen Kane episode. The Thelma and Louise episode. The Planet of the Apes musical.
When I fill the pot to make coffee, sometimes I'll turn the faucet on and then turn away to complete some other quick task. Inevitably, I sometimes take too long on the secondary task, and come back to good, potable water flowing out into the drain. It makes me think about how that truly is the most valuable resource, and some day, I may look back upon those moments of carelessness with great shame. I'm not sure when the next big awful thing that will wipe out entire populations will come, but I'm already preparing myself to feel guilty about it.
What a wonderful way to spend life. I think I should start building a self-sustaining cabin in the mountains somewhere 😑
There's no leadership void in the Democratic Party, it's been Bernard Sanders for quite a while. Them denying this is to their (and everyone elses) detriment. Just run Bernie/AOC and let's get this over with.
Everyone experiencing pain, has to find their own reason to push through it, or they will succumb to it. Whether it's emotional or physical, most of the time the best way out is through. If you're in dense brush, with thorns all around, you can stop, and hope that by remaining perfectly still you'll avoid being poked, or you can clench your teeth, move as much as you can out of the way and push past the rest. Sometimes it's remaining still that becomes more unbearable.
Whenever I fall out of running, and try to pick it back up, my inner mantra remains the same. It doesn't matter how many times you stop, as long as you start back up again.
Today I just straight up asked my boss if we could skip our monthly 1 on 1 because I was already just so done. Thankfully he's a total mensch, gave me a thumbs up, reminded me of a report I have due Friday, and we went about our day. Sometimes, sometimes things work out.
Back when I was an active alcoholic, I'd go through one of those a day. That was my version of moderation 🙃
