В школе говорят, что мне пора бы поумнеть (Чё?)
Look I gotta pay my skyrocketing rent and its either open up an OF on the side (I have been informed that this would violate BDS so that’s off the table), selling blood plasma, or federal election interference.
Xi actually personally signs the checks that they send to me biweekly for my high quality posting. 💅
I’ve seen you post good takes
that actually made me blush, you’re too kind!
I am super good at missing out the context before I reply to things in my inbox, didn’t mean to be curt with you
until next time 🫡
it looks like even that expired a week ago!
hilariously they took a temp ban from /c/Linux, but just scrolling a little further they also just got a perm ban from NCD for " you don’t fit in here" because they mentioned the historical (and ongoing) American mistreatment of their indigenous population in a different thread
I guess just being russiophobic isn’t enough to fit in with those types
I’m glad we agree
lmao
I’ll make sure to file this away the next time I feel like bringing up the US’s active participation in genocide any time the US is the subject of conversation.
isn’t this whataboutism
they have managed to set a trend for filling the night sky with shitty little low orbit satellites chewing up the ozone layer
What’s this Bread Day about?
I had no idea either, its new after my time at least
The holiday was established in 2006 on the initiative of the International Union of Bakers and Pastry Chefs. And the choice of date is due to the fact that on October 16, 1945, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations was created, which dealt with the problems of developing agriculture and its production. Incidentally, another holiday is also timed to coincide with this event - World Food Day.
This article is a little weirdly structured, like yeah the traditional values indoctrination is cringe, they say that they saw this in a bunch of schools October 14-21 and that it was mostly non-military stuff
However, most of the reports reviewed by 7x7 focused on topics unrelated to politics or the war. Lessons were also held in connection with Father’s Day and Bread Day, and several kindergartens discussed what it means to be an adult.
Part of the reason theyre having soldiers in and related activities around 10/22 is that its white crane day, which is a day when WW2 fallen get remembered, and part of the reason for the veteran reading poems is because the holiday itself is named after a poem.
they only mention in the article that it was a poem about the SMO, but on the linked VK post they say that it was poems that he had written about exploits of people in the great patriotic war, and the SMO. the actually noteworthy thing for Western readers I think is the way that they’re being tied together, for a lot of Russians the framing that one is a continuation of the other lands.
The point of what I was saying was that it’s not as explicitly gender-neutral as something like “person”. Thus the example of asking a cishet guy how that guy he married is doing, it just doesn’t scan. It’s not a huge distinction in most situations and is generally appropriate, but its also pretty clearly a passive aggressive dig when it’s used in situations where it’s the singular and the subject has made their gender clear.
You’re welcome to dispute that it’s not used as passive aggressive dig, but I’m just citing lived experience.
Me:
If someone asks a cishet guy how many guys they’ve been with
You:
If someone asks a cishet guy how many people they’ve been with
If you were calling me a person rather than a “guy” I would have no issue this whole time, notice how you just changed my wording to make your argument work?
I think I’ll refrain from taking English language advice, or life advice from you
Yes, shoot the guns
Yeah this had been my observation too
I mean I just said they have guns, they should use them
You seem to have lots of faith in them, I don’t particularly, though I haven’t worked with anyone who’s been getting paid to work with them either.
They tear gassed a bunch of protesters in Kosovo just last year
I stand corrected, their track record seems to be getting used to control unarmed crowds (throwing rocks 😱) with chemical weapons and sex trafficking in the places they’re deployed
Democrats really have been trying to peddle a final solution on a slightly longer timeline as the absolute limit of harm reduction while refusing to withhold ammunition from the occupation.
Destroying this system is the only sane response.
