How the fuck can there be anti vaccine "witches?" If you disagree with binding an invisible malignant entity into a single drop of potion that seals a subject's blood against the full force of that very same entity's curse then you are not and can never be a witch you're just a karen who buys rocks

i'm sorry but this is the only submission to this trend that i'll consider giving any thought to

Mario Savio giving a speech at Berkeley in 1964 during an occupation of the university.

I mistakenly labeled this as an occupation and speech against the Vietnam war. It was in fact an occupation by the Free Speech Movement, who objected to attacks on free speech and academic freedom during the cold war, when "radical" student groups were banned and faculty had to swear an anti-Communist loyalty oath or be fired. Students objected to universities being used as a source of knowledge and innovation for the military industrial complex but not being allowed to speak their minds that, which does have a lot of parallels with the current occupations.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus -- and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it -- that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all!!

Stop watching your people getting jumped by cops

I didn’t even realize until about a year ago that I have never had meatloaf, not once in 46 years, because both of my parents were fed it so often as kids that they refused to ever eat it again.

Getting a new laptop bag so I can use up all my extra patches.

I could really use some good news.

Update Harvard students are walking out in solidarity with Columbia’s students

These are billion dollar for profit institutions that directly impact financial backing of Israel’s apartheid regime

Sometimes I think I’m weird when I bring multiple electronic devices to my night job so I can read, write, research, edit, or whatever else my heart desires in between listening to reading challenge audiobooks at twice the speed.

And then sometimes I go into my other job and the new guy has brought a *whole-ass antique Webster’s Unabridged dictionary* to read for FUN. We started talking about the way the English language has evolved and changed and one of our coworkers was like, “You guys sound SO nerdy right now.”

Which … well, yes. But also, y’all, bringing in a hardcover dictionary from the 1940s or whenever that’s the size of a toaster to read like an actual book? That’s too nerdy even for ME.

Annoyingly, the Dollop did a two-part episode on her about a month or so ago and she’s still alive. (I just double-checked now because I was like, “Wait, DID she die?” Nope, still alive, still awful.)

What makes this even funnier is if you’re a rich guy and do this the actual poker players will shower you with praise and stroke your ego (especially when you win hands through sheer variance) and say you’re great and to keep doing what you’re doing because they’re just siphoning money from you and want you to keep it up. Like, that’s the original definition of a “whale” in the gambling sense

All done! And the lights all turn on, which is usually my high bar with these things. 😌
