itâs always a good day to complain about English speakers
Important addition: Maria SkĆodowska-Curie was born during partitions, which means Poland didnât exist, which means her insistence that she was Polish was a significant act of defiance against the occupation, which means that you should respect that instead of arguing that âwell she had French citizenshipâ. She couldnât have Polish citizenship despite being Polish, thatâs kinda the point she was making by keeping her maiden name and naming a chemical element she discovered âPoloniumâ .
HOW TO PRONOUNCE: SkĆodowska
L with a dash through it (Ć) makes a âWâ sound. and W makes a âVâ sound.
This lady was the main act in a funny online âscandalâ some weeks ago (?) bc she is some famous bigshot in the tradwife online community and it got âleakedâ that she is married to a pretty high up millonaire guy, and thats why she can live by making videos of her making all kinds of foods from scratch in vintage and original expensive ass old kitchen.
But well, nothing more trad than the rich wife of a rich guy being able to be a stay at home mom and to larp as a farmer. Even old time royalty liked to do that from time to time.
I had to do a double take because I recognize that stove! Thatâs the stove from the fucking book. This romance novel I read (Scrap Metal by Harper Fox) kept talking about something called an âagaâ and I went âwhat the hell is an aga?â and then got trapped all day reading about the history of the AGA cooker on Wikipedia, and let me tell you-
Theyâre designed to be on 24/7, they do not turn off. They use almost forty times the energy of a normal stove. The smallest AGA cooker will burn the same amount of gas in one week as a standard oven will use in nine months. So not only do they cost a million dollars theyâre unimaginably wasteful.
please god i am so deathly sick of people saying like âhow is this straight the writers are so dumb!â about literal actual gay media i donât know how to break it to you people but nbc hannibal is about two men who are attracted to each other. jenniferâs body is about two women who are attracted to each other. i know you guys are used to only consuming captain america movies and the occasional mark zuckerburg biopic but there are writers who actually write gay people and they do in fact do so on purpose. you donât have to say âi canât believe the writers thought this was heterosexualâ they literally did not
actually i cracked the code. you all are like this because you are biphobic
she says out loud with her mouth âi go both waysâ
i just think people should be able to navigate difficulties in their personal life without having the threat of homelessness or starvation or destitution hanging over their heads the whole time
i feel like i’m losing my mind why has the AI debate pivoted away from material/labor concerns back to debates about Real vs Fake Art. cannot express just how little i care about relitigating Art and high art and low art and skilled vs unskilled art. what i care about is the treatment and compensation of workers, the power corporations are exerting over intellectual property and creators, the continued extraction of resources, and the omnipresent glut of spam and disinformation with few regulations and resources that filter out the SEO AI generated nonsense
âItâs often unhealthy to hyper-analyze your sexuality to the point where how you experience it changes where you belong. This is why the idea that broader terms are somehow more restrictive is baffling. Continuously breaking labels down and creating terminology for each facet of oneâs identity shrinks communities until itâs just one person convinced that theyâre the only one who relates to their experiences. It isolates people and ignores the importance of individuality within a collective identity.â
If you live in the US and you have a phone you need to keep secret for any reason, make sure that it is turned off at this time.
Yes, I’m doing this months in advance, and yes, my blog has very little reach, but I figure better to post about it more than less.
Please reblog and add better tags than mine, I’m bad at tags.

TURN OFF YOUR OTHER PHONE AND DO NOT TURN IT ON AGAIN UNTIL YOU ARE ALONE AND SAFE BECAUSE THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED ON.
AGAIN I REPEAT:
OCTOBER 4, 2023
THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED BACK ON.
SO ONLY POWER IT BACK ON WHEN IT IS SAFE TO DO SO.
OCTOBER 4, 2023
If this doesn’t make sense, then good news it’s not for or about you but still reblog it because you never know who may need to know this.
Reblog and add more tags.
There’s just a whole lot of reasons someone may need to be aware of/prepared for this, so boosting
“People will call you antiblack for saying usamericans benefit from living in in the imperial core.” No, people will call you antiblack ignoring the complexities of the reality of being Black in the U.S. and telling Black Americans that antiblackness isn’t that bad in the grand scheme of things like…Black Americans are literally an actively colonized people just like every other victim of U.S. imperialism, the merger benefits do not outweigh the bootheel of oppression at all. It’s a slap in the face to say that Black Americans are privileged for living in the U.S.
literally fuck companies that don’t want their employees to act “unprofessional” in front of customers. I’m at a five guys rn and the employees here are joking around calling orders back and forth to each other and saying things in weird voices and laughing with each other while they work. Someone just came in for their shift while I was waiting for my food and was greeted by the whole kitchen with a secret handshake lookin thing. It was so silly and cute I love seeing ppl have fun at work and I know my food’s gonna be bomb bc the ppl there are having fun with each other. Let employees be people and friends and have fun what is the issue!!!!
Hate to be the guy who takes this post very seriously but the reason bosses don’t like this and don’t encourage it is because what follows is talking about wages and treatment at work and then unionizing lol
