I haven’t seen this linked on here so: this is an awesome resource for how you can help the people in Palestine. It has donation links, helps you figure out how to contact your representatives, and a regularly updated list of planned protests. It is USAmerican centric but the list of protests is international.
If you are American this site has a tool that sends an email for you. All you need to enter is your name, email address, and street address so they can auto-find your senators. It will take 30 seconds.
The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous startups in Silicon Valley, I will spare the whole place for their sake.” Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes, what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five startups?” // “If I find forty-five there,” God said, “I will not destroy it.”
… The two venture capitalists arrived at Palo Alto in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gateway of the city. … They did go with him and entered his $0.9m one-bedroom home. He prepared a meal for them, baking bread without gluten, and they ate. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of Silicon Valley—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can pitch our startups to them.”
how incels are made: men hold misogynistic views. they become upset when their views are not validated in the form of instantly having a girlfriend that is both a housewife and a sex doll. first they blame their own ugliness (they might not even be ugly), and then they become increasingly violently misogynistic.
how way too many people on this site think incels are made: men aren’t coddled enough, they aren’t constantly valued for being masculine enough, and oh it’s actually women’s fault guys
Slow the fuck down is also the way to avoid scams, social engineering, phishing, etc.
“Oh, no the CEO of my employer is having an emergency and I need to click this link right now!!!”
Slow down…
“Why would the CEO be emailing ME of all people? Maybe this email is a phishing attack that would get my employer hacked and me fired for allowing it.” (It probably is a phishing email.)
In general, “Slow the fuck down” is an extremely powerful information literacy skill.
“Depressed drunken Irishman captain goes cold turkey while lost in the Arctic and re-emerges to discover his crossdressing second is throwing an open bar rave in the middle of the endless polar night” sounds like a shitpost version of The Terror but alas that really does happen in the show and it’s a major turning point for everyone involved
this is not a political statement or a justification of anything, but i do kinda hate the way people talk about the holocaust as if it’s just an excuse jews use to get what they want, or a lesson that jews should’ve just learned better, and not a world-historical trauma that is fucking everyone, to this day
