I don’t know where we go from here. Neither does anyone else.

I don’t want to come across as trite, and the author makes some good points overall. But what happens when you fail to prevent the rise of fascism is fascism. The only real uncertainties are in the details, e.g., who is the first to be ground into the dirt. Everyone’s familiar with the “what would you have done when the nazis were in power” question. Well I’m afraid that now we get to see how ourselves, our neighbors, and everyone else we’ve ever known answers that question. And thinking about a lot of the people I’ve known in my life, that prospect terrifies me.

So yes, let’s plan and prepare and steel ourselves for what is to come. Let’s have general strikes (like the author suggests) and more, and when those are violently oppressed let us have riots. Because its not that we don’t know what’s coming - we do, we just still don’t want to admit it.

Off my tits on that crouton

We're all just a tiny little crumb in this vast crouton we call a universe....

This is absolutely excellent

(btw; As I type this comment, my friend is saying it looks like I am "fake typing" and that this is "really silly")

Oh wowo.Looking into this

enjoy a psychedelic crouton

The third type of leavening, pearlash, was the precursor to modern baking powder. Pearlash was a purified form of potash. It was first used as a leavening agent by Native Americans and was the subject of the first patent in the United States, issued in April 1790.[17]

Wow, a 27-year old study, that's very long!

as if i needed another reason to call tumblr users liberal scum on anon

People just kind of assume that the people in their lives share their politics, so breaking that illusion can help them navigate their social lives, I feel.

i appreciate this post

ffmpeg is like a lover to me

soooooooooooooo timely, i had fattoush for lunch. the pita was popping

i agree to an extent, but the title of the post reads like spam, and the user didn't even try to do anything to engage as a person. if they really just wanted to extoll the virtues of a mediterranean diet they can try again and instead actually post about it

it's a bit of a confusing one for me because as far as i could tell it's just an informative (no judgment of quality being implied here) webpage? it's a single-issue webpage reminiscent of old geocities pages, even. i was even successful in building a narrative in my head of some silly jerk genuinely joining a forum (as in, not spamming) and having their first gambit be posting that

this was a great one to crouton

World recognized best diet:

after the failure of sanders and corbyn somehow i doubt that the point of ostensibly "left" parties "adopting" rightwing policies is to win votes but rather guarantee the profits and ideologies of the donor class. they have no incentive or interest in actually governing or delivering even the weak progressive policies they claim to support because they do quite well off of donations, insider trading, "speeches" for the private sector, etc

maybe their standards are so low because theyre faced with the absolute bottom of the barrel of conservative party politicians... but maybe theyre just right wing morons

They're already nostalgic about Johnson...

woah, always good to see a giopost. he's of high repute in homestuck circles too for his work on projects like the offline homestuck collection

I want you to know how much restraint it's taking for me to not mention the Fediverse right now

Twitter banned me for no discernible reason and I couldn't manage to make another account so it has spared me from debate clubs. Mysterious are His ways!
