I support banning tiktok so that teenagers stop ordering the obnoxious custom drinks that become memes on there for some reason.

You gotta love* whenever capitalist officials gut or severely curtail any social program whatsoever on the grounds that "if people get used to getting resources from the state, they won't want to work." Jackass, they're still going to be fucking spending money, even if they did nothing but sit around and spend, they would still be driving that precious economy you're always on about. Of course, all this just from me remembering some anus said this about a cut to aid to caregivers. Fun.

TIL the U.S. poverty rate actually went down despite jobless claims being in the tens of millions because of the extra 600 dollars a week that was being given out. But thankfully that decent and surprisingly useful bill that was passed by the democrats will come to an end on July 31st because dammit we just can't have people living better lives in this country! That would be madness.

The Ojibwe word for hello is "bozhoo" pronounced like the start of bougoise with zhu on the end. The French word for hello, bonjour, sounds very similar. This predates contact between the cultures, and you can imagine the hilarious scene when the French made first contact with the Ojibwe.

The word comes from a shortened version of "Nanaboozhoo", which itself is the name of a mythical figure and trickster who helped give names to the plants and the animals, and then left and said he would return. People would originally greet each other saying, "Are you Nanaboozhoo?" but language shortened it down to just "Bozhoo"

Ill leave this book here for fellow Muslims and other friends who (as I did at one point in time) think that it is Islamic to want to kill anyone that isn't cis and straight.

Immigration Rights Groups Raise Alarm over ICE Plan to Host “Citizens Academy” | Democracy Now!
https://www.democracynow.org/2020/7/10/headlines/immigration_rights_groups_raise_alarm_over_ice_plan_to_host_citizens_academy
ICE plans to launch a six-week so-called citizens academy class in Chicago, where the agency plans to teach attendees “defensive tactics” and “firearms familiarization” to arrest undocumented people. Immigrant rights advocates are sounding the alarm on the initiative, which ICE hopes to expand nationwide. Silky Shah, executive director of detentionwatch, said ”ICE is recruiting an army of 'citizens' to fuel its propaganda machine and forge hatred in our communities. … [T]he outcome of this program will be more terror unleashed upon immigrant communities and people of color.” #AbolishICE

marvel: took 300 years to make a film with a black character as the lead, refuses to take a stand on anything, lowest common denominator action and story telling

F&F: every main character is a minority, also fuck the cops 😎
