To wrap up the thread, I highly recommend this piece by

on the opoid crisis. anyone telling you the answer is simple isn't being honest; fentanyl is a really difficult problem, and we have more work to do to figure out how to solve it
"cute boy" has the triconsonantal root k-t-b, meaning "book" or "to write" in semitic languages. the agricultural revolution created a class of men such as scribes freed from manual labor, soft, weak, and adorable. civilization exists to allow for twinks
non transfems who hang around in heavily transfem communities r kinda heroes. every day is a roulette wheel on whether we're calling you a chaser, an egg, or a transmisogynist and you're still with us
made a "biden's america" joke around my dad and he got like. genuinely offended. "what's that supposed to mean? who's side are you on?" boomerlibs r a blessing tho i couldn't ask for better parents
bharat discourse should be fun bc it's replacing a common english term with an unfamiliar foreign word which sounds like a Woke Thing but it's being pushed by india's right which is pretty connected with the western right, i expect commentary to be all over the place
counties by voting history over the last 4 elections. all possible combinations except supporting the loser every time are represented, though some are pretty rare. i hope the colors i chose are okay, they're fairly arbitrary and its hard to find 15 clearly distinct colors
what was ever the point of setback requirements? having stuff right up against the street is half what makes a place feel alive, who sees a negative in that
i feel awful, because i've been aware that the professor had a pattern of shitty behavior in dms with multiple people for a while, and i never said anything about it publicly. but just to add to the point that this guy is a creep (from my own dms):
On sock twitter, we say all taxes are beautiful, but we all have our favorites - and least favorites. It's time to decide the biggest question of social democracy: which tax really is the best? It's the Tax Bracket!
there's a weird variation of horseshoe theory where "things were good before the industrial revolution" is vaguely right-coded but "things were good before the agricultural revolution" is vaguely left-coded while "things are good now" is vaguely center-coded
crazy how they invented agriculture and then all human progress immediately stopped. tech, science, art, philosophy - has literally anything happened since 10,000 BC?
not to be misinterpreted obviously the most important factor was the allied forces bearing down on them but its funny how much conflict was avoided because a random political body with some relative moderates could officially dismiss him
if you just look at california's electoral results as a whole it looks like it used to be a consistently red state and then suddenly flipped blue, but dividing it into its major regions shows some more interesting internal trends:
the Grand Council of Fascism, a governmental body which had been subordinate to an authoritarian dictator for 15 years: you're done for
Mussolini: noooooo
You know the economy’s been bad for a while cause men don’t have secret families anymore. That shit seemed so common in the 70s or whatever, I keep hearing about people’s grandpa’s having a whole family in another country, but regular people can’t afford that anymore
was hiroshima justified discourse always has some worthwhile points from both sides but ultimately i think the ethics of it aren't that ambiguous and its disappointing to see a lot of ppl i like take the other side
apparently british people used to (still do?) often pronounce "los angeles" like it was greek, rhyming with "hercules" or "achilles"
can anyone confirm this wtf lol
Ronald Reagan famously complained that the government's view of the economy was "if it moves, tax it". Perhaps we should take his advice and place high taxes only on the only thing which is, within the Earth's rotating reference frame, completely motionless,
