Spicy chai with a touch of vanilla flavoured oat milk, I have 2 cups a day at least.
I used to mostly drink regular tea, and also enjoy earl grey, and especially if I’m not feeling well and want to avoid caffeine - jasmine (probably my favourite non-tea tea), chamomile, mint, and a few others, but the chai has beaten all others and become my staple.
Ooof, TIL…
Which is excellent.
Just to be clear, I’m not criticising anyone who is reeling and scared right now, or you personally, or even the post itself, I just think it’s long past due that we stop wasting our collective energy and power on focusing on and trying to fix the symptoms, instead of their cause, because that’s never going to work.
But that’s still settling for suffering, which is always to be undertaken by those already most vulnerable and marginalised in society (E: as I mention, even when the “lesser evil” wins, they continue to actively target us).
And this willingness to settle for suffering is partly how we got to this point (it’s functionally how the Overton window shifts).
Aim for more.
Demand more for yourself.
This probably won’t make anyone feel any better, but here in the UK we got the “lesser evil”, and all of the threats that existed before, still exist now. They are going ahead with cutting benefits and making them harder to get, they are continuing their attack on trans people, they are not opposing genocide in any significant way., they continue to favour rich over poor.
The problem isn’t who sits at the head of the pyramid, the problem is the pyramid itself, because by definition someone always has to be at the bottom and bear the brunt of those above.
As bad as they are, we must stop focusing on the symptoms, and address the cause - abolish capitalism, abolish the state, abolish hierarchy.
Every single one of them is telling on themselves.
LISTEN
The system is what it does, and what it does is decay in to fascism.
And on basically no land at all. You know the person who did this doesn’t believe in climate change, who else would bother?
This.
One of the best ways to confront a bigot is by pretending to be completely naive of their intentions, and getting them to dig their own hole by repeatedly asking them to explain what they mean.
Gotta read the articles 👍
No, you…
As well as looking at the abilities of a single monkey, the study also did a series of calculations based on the current global population of chimpanzees, which is roughly 200,000.
(E: never mind that, as has already been suggested to you, the theoretical thought experiment in question specifies not only infinite monkeys, but infinite time too, so they’ve not stuck to either parameter)
Yeah, no, using a finite number to try and disprove a theory that is all specifically about infinite numbers isn’t poking holes in anything…
Don’t forget:
Those politicians who are in a position to pass laws with regards to my taxes, income level, and other means of hoarding power? Oh, they’re owned by me thanks to legal bribery.
And those other politicians who want to introduce a maximum wage, higher taxes, or anything remotely socialist? Oh, the media outlet/s I own, along with the politicians I’ve already paid off can easily smear them out of contention.
Both possible because the system is what it does and is designed to encourage these kinds of disparity and inequality, not combat it.
…and push him out a window.
If you seriously can’t make your point without ridiculing people who have literally lost everything, in many cases even their lives, maybe don’t make the fucking point.
There’s a bunch of us it seems 😂
What kindernacht said.
Judd Hirsch plays Jeff Goldblum’s character’s dad, who has low tolerance for bullshit lol
Came here to post this lol
Violence
Yeah, but those people don’t get defensive when you comment on it, while those who are raising the red flag immediately do. It’s pretty easy to tell them apart from that point forward.
