I really hated all the moaning about people calling out that both are shitty options. The Overton window is so far to the right. Like, yeah Harris is clearly the better option but neither represent any positive moves forward.

I rather like the wide berth people give me even though it doesn’t make much sense. Like, anyone could have Covid, but if I had it and I wear a respirator I’ll be less dangerous than someone who has it and doesn’t wear one. I get that people equate respirators with spooky but that’s just because they haven’t thought about it.

Thinking back on it, there was a single dude that spoke to me randomly. I think it might have been because of the mask but I’ve genuinely no idea, I always wear ANC headphones and ignore people. It helps my anxiety a lot.

Sadly, the people that will really appreciate you using a respirator are those you generally don’t see out and about because they can’t be, it isn’t safe for them.

I also mask. People don’t generally talk about it here, and masking wasn’t even very common back when the pandemic was taken more seriously.

Never faced any aggression but people do give you a wide berth which is kind of hilarious to me, but it doesn’t bother me at all.

I was brushing my teeth when reading this comment and inadvertently ended up swallowing all my toothpaste.

I support this.

3 hours of deep worm.

I keep reading work as worm.

Respectfully, I don’t want to see any trains or buses made under his guidance.

I mean, Winston Churchill most definitely was a villain. He wasn’t the villain of WWII, but undoubtedly a villain.

He was intensely racist, had no problem using Indian people in his army while censoring their letters, as a famine he had a hand in creating killed over three million people.

That’s no excuse for peddling propaganda-Nazi propaganda, though. I thought that was kind of this guy’s shtick?

SEK. I make 38k a month! Thus, she makes about ~18 times more than me and then a nurse’s salary on top of that.

That’s PostNord for you. Reminder that the CEO earns ~700k a month for doing helpful things like… introducing every other day delivery of post. Hmmm.

There’s a particular variety of Chinese garlic that grows as a singular bulb. It originates in the Yunnan province, I think. I remember my mother growing it back when I was a child. It’s really nice!

Dangerous. Don’t insert things without a flared base or some other appendage for easy removal. That thing looks less like a sex toy and more like a paperweight.

Oh, fuck off with that. We’re in the middle of a climate catastrophe the scale of which we don’t even fully comprehend yet. I can understand a wish for more transparency in how the systems work, but if you’re not willing to pull your weight and put your money where your mouth is, you don’t get to complain. How is it in any way strange that China would be looking to boost the Chinese market? Every other market does exactly this.

The problem with using dehumanising language like this is that it means that someone’s humanity, in your eyes, is contingent on your approval.

It says more about you as a person than it does about the people you criticise.

It’s silly to downvote you for wanting the leaders and representatives of a country and its people to be held to a certain standard.

Because all cops are bastards. The system is working as intended.

There was a case here in Sweden where the Swedish police was tipped off on a potential paedophile by an American agency that had trawled through Yahoo email and found suspected CSAM. Swedish Police essentially swatted this man, assaulted him early in the morning, while he was in his bed sleeping, took him away without telling him what was going on; he thought he was being kidnapped. Eventually when it was made clear that the materials were private photos of him and his 30 year old boyfriend getting it on, they faced no repercussions.

The reasoning behind it? The police were masked so they couldn’t single out who was responsible for the assault. Of course they knew who was present, but since they didn’t know the actual perps it’d be unfair to investigate properly because that’d put them all under unfair suspicion, and it obviously wouldn’t be reasonable to punish all of the police present.

But it’s perfectly okay to beat the shit out of someone they think is a paedophile, and honestly it’s probably because he’s of middle-eastern descent.

I love this photo so much. It’s such a shame that the neo-Nazis are in parliament now.

I bet it’s just assassins creed.

Sail the seas, activate ice bergs to unlock the map, gather five million useless trinkets.

Yes beware, he’ll only break your heart.
