I’ve seen regular ass high school dudes save up to treat their girl a steak dinner and Pandora jewelry lol. Yet women in their 30s are letting themselves get lowballed

Lots of top public and private colleges will admit academically accomplished students who aren’t doing all of this. The Ivies are Ivies, not the be all end all of excellence
Trade schools require competency in critical thinking and problem-solving in the same way universities do. They aren’t just letting anyone fix power lines and weld together the metal parts of buildings. A poor secondary education leaves you ill-prepared for every level after
The Chinese Exclusion Act was the only legislation to ever exclude a specific ethnic group from entering the US. One of the worst lynchings to occur in US history was against Chinese people in LA. Japanese interment camps. Korematsu v United States
BREAKING: 🇨🇳 China's envoy to the Middle East says, 'the fundamental reason for the current situation in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is that the legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people have not been guaranteed'.
There’s a segment of that man’s supporters who don’t even care that much about politics, they just know he’s the likeliest to enable their degeneracy which is why they vote for him
I kno everyone has their rules for their home and I get that. But growing up if I came over ur house and their was a limit on the juice for the day or whatever I wasn’t coming back. Some of my cousins had to ask every time they wanted a bag of chips. No thank you. 🥹
no offense but i don’t think you get to sit around and complaining about being lonely and having no friends if you also say staying at home and binging netflix and scrolling tiktok is your main hobby
ASU is canceling fall break to discourage out-of-state travel, but is resuming in-person campus tours, which...will encourage whole families to travel to Tempe from other states and worsen what will already be a major outbreak
Serious socialists understand that when a socialist government has control of resources, it is preferable to those resources being controlled by US corporations and a comprador government.
That girl just posted a $500 book haul. There is absolutely no reason to purchase that many books at once when the library is right there 😭 booktokers are just socially acceptable hoarders
Ya’ll live in this fantasy world where predatory men simply need a kindergarten lecture and a few minutes in the timeout corner for their behavior to stop

A lot of people making nasty comments are probably the same ones who perform this caricature of blackness in order to feel accepted anywhere lol
The Miss Korea competition asked the contestants "If the deepfake version of you is more attractive than you, how would you get rid of the gap between the deepfake version and you". This, their birth rate in the trenches, banning epidurals, yea Korea is COOKED.
I don’t care what they tell you to your face. A lot of these “anti-abortion” people would quietly reconsider the moment their teenage daughter comes home with a pregnancy announcement
I love the idea of the US giving all the land back to indigenous people because there are only three million of them so they'd all either have to leave the country or die due to their inability to maintain the infrastructure
Many children of immigrants have a love of their parents’ culture that begins and ends with aesthetics. They love the food, traditional clothes, weddings, and pop culture but seldom socialize with newer immigrants from the “motherland”
The last tweet reminded me of a couple instances I have read from various books that said when a first wave of an immigrant group come from an educated middle class, they LOATHE When their least educated and poor countrymen follow them. Out of fear of destroying their reputation
Vincent Chin. Anti-Hindu gangs in New Jersey. Chinese and Japanese migrants being forced to live in ethnic enclaves due to deadly racism. Post-9/11 treatment of Muslims and Sikhs. Rising hate crimes against East Asian and S/E Asian people in the US. I can go on
These people aren’t retail wage workers, they are influencers making the deliberate choice to indulgently consume at the expense of others and encourage their followers to do the same
their responses are very weird but imagine how insane it would be to go up to a forever 21 employee and tell them they’re exploiting people and killing the planet while their manager is behind them lshgfdfhj
I’ve distanced myself from American urbanist discourse because 99% of it is just incessant complaining about the same three things and straight up lying
The fact that it's impossible to walk somewhere as simple as a coffee shop nearly anywhere in the US, because we've made it illegal, is really one of the craziest things about modern America. We have to build walkable cities!
Flight attendants were among the most visible working women in postwar America. They deserve a lot of credit for the workplace gender equality American women benefit from today
More people in my generation should read about what life was like for LGBT+ Americans at large pre-2010. We are too young to remember firsthand how bad it was
DADT was a big win for LGBT rights in the military. There were offices in the Pentagon dedicated to rooting out gay soldiers and Bill Clinton shuttered them forever.
This is what happens when you emphasize time spent with kids as a measure of successful parenthood. Her kids might love the time they’re getting with mom now, but they’ll hate her when they’re unemployable adults who barely meet the job requirements to be a cashier
These parents think moving at the rate of a child’s natural curiosity is a sufficient pace for learning but they are failing to exploit the most plastic years of brain development and these children will forever be behind in life bc of their selfish, lazy parents

I know someone whose addiction started with an opioid prescription after an injury and he is now incarcerated. It’s a devastating cycle
Wait I just found out the military advises against ancestry DNA tests because it’s a “security risk”….but really it was picking up all the kids the soldiers had scattered across the world
