Frankly, I don’t really blame people for having faith in the guardrails. Generally speaking, whenever any truly progressive legislation (often labeled as “extremism”) has been pushed forward, those guardrails have come up real quick. I understand why people thought that that would hold true for extremism in any direction. But it… well, doesn’t.
We both outnumber and out-gun ICE by an absolutely astounding margin. ICE posts at our polling places, ICE gets crushed.
The genre of pop music was built off using instrumentation and song structures common in popular music, hence the name. Not sure why this is confusing, but I’m also not interested in talking to you anymore, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’m not saying that all pop music is actually popular, I’m saying that the origin of the term “pop music” is “popular music”.
It literally does stand for popular music.
Funny, cuz lots of the ones who say “ew less than 100k listens” will also say they’re not into pop music. Wondering what they think “pop” is short for lmao
Pretty sure they’re just going in order of operations? The first thing you do if you drove to the grocery store is park, that’s why they said it first. Weird ass little comment you’ve made here though lmao
This absolutely is the average experience for young women on social media, and moreover it’s the intended experience. Making girls feel like shit about themselves has gotten powerful men money, sex, and more power for a very very long time.
Or it was her ex-husband’s most prized possession and her lawyer is actually an absolute unit.
It’s not a “Very Online” take, it’s a “paying any modicum of attention” take. Willful ignorance is not a valid excuse for anything, and if your boss truly thinks of Elon Musk (the richest man in the world who has bought elections and media platforms and every American’s social security number) the same way that you think of some random hockey player, then your boss is being willfully ignorant. It’s giving “i’M nOt pOLiTiCaL”, which we all know is just cowardese for “conservative”.
Sorry to hear that, man. Glad you’re still with us.
My high school didn’t have lockers. I assume mine isn’t the only one.
They’ve signed with an OEM (still secret atm, but the best guess seems to be Motorola?) who will produce the first flagship GrapheneOS device sometime this or next year iirc. Supposed to be revealing the manufacturer next month. That’ll at least take some of the Google dependency by having to use Pixels.
Buffy. Not exactly a kid show, but I was a kid when I watched it ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Quick upvote without reading whilst I continue mindlessly scrolling.
They don’t sound much like friends tbh. Sorry bud.
Own ten digits of wealth instead of nine. There’s nothing of actual value to billionaires. The point is to just watch the number get larger. Growth for growth’s sake; the ideology of a cancer cell.
Something that may help is explaining that gun control policy originated as a means of disarming minorities, specifically black people.
Black Panthers in Oakland, CA would open carry and follow cops around whenever they came into black neighborhoods, in an attempt to curtail the rampant police brutality black people regularly endured. Naturally, a bunch of old white 2A-loving Republicans (including the fucking NRA) didn’t like that, and altogether signed off on the Mulford Act, the first major gun control legislation in the country, supported by “2A advocates” (read, in this instance: racists) for the sole purpose of better allowing police to terrorize black citizens.
I was once pretty strongly anti-gun too (less for political reasons and more because I saw a guy get his chest blown out at work when I was in my early 20s), but the knowledge that the true intention underpinning gun control and anti-gun legislation has always been to disarm and weaken marginalized communities changed my mind.
Not sure it will help with your friends, but idk. Worth a try maybe.
Yikes. That’s enough from you. Byeeee.
There hasn’t been much of one yet, because many people don’t feel personally threatened. They will feel threatened if ICE is blocking access to their polling place though.
