“Semitism.” is the biggest lie in history , The real Holocaust is what is happening in Gaza.

These children of Palestine in Gaza are being killed before the eyes of the hypocritical world. If you are a human being, you will not stop changing. You will not stop defeating evil people in all the world. You will not stop supporting the defenseless people of Palestine in Gaza. You will not stop defeating this Nazi, terrorist Israeli occupation. And remove it from the land of historic Palestine.

When the rest of the world looks at the united states right now, we see a government who sends billions to support genocide but cannot help their own people starving on the streets.

We see a police force who won't go in to save children from school shootings, but deploy at a rapid rate to arrest peaceful protestors using their right to free speech to protest a genocide

America, you are a war mongering snake eating your own tail. You will protect and support war criminals in another country but let your own people starve and die

To the students bravely protesting now, we see your strength. We see what we saw when students protested the Vietnam War. We have faith you will prevail

the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

The podcast I've been listening to for 12 years just rewired my brain and now what? I do the dishes, I pour myself some coffee and go back to work???? Huh??????????

#oof felt #i have been rewired at work so many times #(because thats where i listen to my podcast) #and its just like I just have to keep stocking stuff #even though im remembering that i am worthy of love and being told i dont have to live how i was taught to live by my parents #through listening to these two goofball mothers talk about their own experiences raising children differently than how they were raised #and like my parents did their best but they were very authoritarian #and now im just rambling my bad #but the podcast is childproof by gwenna and tori if anyone is interested #its made me almost cry at work before #and think about how i treat myself others and the world

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

In 1988, ACT UP protested the FDA withholding HIV treatment due to requiring unethical double-blind studies of medication they already knew worked.

In 2024, trans activists protested promoters of an NHS-funded report requiring unethical double-blind studies of medication they already knew worked.

Just love having a uterus and every month wondering if I have appendicitis. NOT because of my period, but because my egg must have to sword fight it's way out of my ovaries. Idk but it's been like 5 hours now and I want to sleep but it feels almost as bad as period pain but in one isolated spot.

Or in shorter format

Me, every month: hey internet, which side of the body is the appendix

Internet: lower right of the belly

Me: >:) so I'm fine but also Ow

#id rather just get rid of it honestly #no more periods boo #i want to sleep but it hurt #i guess i could take a pain pill like a normal person #but is it really that bad? #i mean i guess if im posting about it probably #urgghhgh #im also not sure if i had muscle fatigue because of this or because i may be lowkey sick :/

whenever i'm trying to talk myself out of buying something i don't need i always hear my old russian professor's voice echoing in my head: "WHAT??? WILL YOU DIE THE RICHEST MAN IN THE GRAVEYARD?" and then i make an unwise financial decision

#I bought two swords because of this post #one came yesterday and the second was shipped yesterday #im happy and also a couple hundred dollars poorer #which isnt horrible because i live at home #but i should work on impulse buying shit #but Swords

I am once again thinking about digging holes

It's so fucked up that digging a bunch of holes works so well at reversing desertification

I hate that so much discourse into fighting climate change is talking about bioenginerring a special kind of seaweed that removes microplastics or whatever other venture-capital-viable startup idea when we have known for forever about shit like digging crescent shaped holes to catch rainwater and turning barren land hospitable
