I should probably clean this computer more often
The pop up mixed with all the labeled space objects make it look ominously like you're deleting a galaxy or something
We don't need them all
the real reason for the Fermi Paradox is that op keeps deleting the aliens
I need the space for more computer games
Fucking wild to be teaching about Rosa Parks at the same time as a trans woman in Florida does an act of civil disobedience to use a women's restroom in the state capitol
As far as I know, she is the first woman arrested bc of this law. The law requires that the trans person be warned to leave the bathroom by a state official, and then if they stay they are guilty of trespassing after a warning.
So like, me, my gf, others just piss and nobody asks or tells, but this young woman sent a statement about the law to over 100 FL lawmakers so they would know she was coming, the cops were ready for her, she brought a reporter and went in anyway and spent the night in a men's jail. She is out on bail, and is hoping this will inspire change of the law. But if found guilty, and the law is upheld as constitutional, then she could spend up to 60 days in a mens county jail.
Growing up, I was taught Rosa Parks was a helpless victim. She, of course, was a victim but she was not helpless. She knew exactly what she was doing when she refused to move. It's because of her courageous act of protest many of us remember the horrible discrimination laws that existed then.
People who want to erase the power of protestors will twist the narrative to portray the victim as meek and fragile. Like those protesting just wanted peace in the moment.
But, like op stated, this trans woman wanted the world to see. She wanted to direct all eyes towards the discriminatory laws in place the same way Rosa Parks did.
People who stand up to bigotry in this manner do not want peace in the moment. They want the violence highlighted so peace will come for those after them. It's a sacrifice. They look their oppressors in the eye and bait them so the world can see how ugly the system is. They know very well they will likely be arrested or even killed. But, that too is part of the message.
Activists like this make an extremely hard decision to sacrifice their well-being for the sake of human rights.
I hope this courageous woman can safely resume her life and I hope her form of protest is heard across the country.
for april fools we’re deleting this entire site sayonara you weeaboo shits
many activists involved the ferguson uprising were mysteriously murdered. at least one activist i know of was murdered after the uprising in louisville. like the united states never ever ever wants an organized movement like the civil rights movement of 50’s-60’s to ever happen again and they’re are more than willing to murder, maim, and disappear people to make that the case.
Do you think the star wars universe has like.. a trigger discipline equivalent for the lightsaber. like people on the internet will see a picture of a beginner jedi holding the sword and they’ll go “LOL wrist not set at 30° perpendicular to the right hip bone. have fun losing your hand you idiot”

really important lesson from Sailor Moon that a lot of people don't pick up on: if you know a girl who's lazy, whiny, immature, and wants to waste all her time playing video games--it might be because she's the reincarnated princess of a forgotten mystical kingdom so show some respect.

Ich hatte darüber nachgedacht, dem Präsidenten der Deutsch-AG meiner Universität @translatingpostsintogerman zu zeigen, aber nachdem ich dort den Peppa Wutz Untreu AU Post gesehen habe, habe ich es mir anders überlegt.
