weird as fuck living in a culture where it's considered more impolite to speak up and defend yourself against someone treating you unfairly than it is for someone to be rude to you in the first place

older family members, coworkers, customers, and strangers in general can say the most batshit insane things to your face and somehow you're considered to be the "rude" one if you say "hey that wasn't cool of you to say"

this is the true gen z experience

once in my sixth hour we were talking about 9/11 and i announced very loudly “more people died in hurricane maria than in 9/11 but nobody really cares because you can’t use hurricanes to justify imperialism” and then not even 5 seconds later i said “yeehaw my beets.”

Yes, this. A stunning number of people will default to "because it's illegal." Teaching an intro-level bioethics course will demonstrate real fucking fast that a lot of the population just lets legality stand in for morality.

the wildlife photographer of the year peoples choice award is always fun

there's a stoat hiding in that last one

some personal favorites from various categories

Good bitch, I'm glad none of your people have an ounce of loyalty to you

does that suck, mark? is it not fun to have your privacy violated? do you feel uncomfortable with people knowing things about you that you'd rather they not know? tell me more about how much you value your security and privacy, mark.

(short) story time

so we’re reading shakespeare in english class rn, and at some point the class went off on a tangent about comedy

my teacher said something like “comedy is always at the expense of someone else, it just depends on how overt it is”

i, of course, disagreed, and spent like 5 minutes explaining the concept of modern surreal/absurd humor while trying not to die laughing when i described the “me when lemon” meme

you know

[transcript: a stock photo of a man holding a flashlight on a gradiented background of white to yellow. the flashlight’s beam is shining at a floating lemon, and the word “lemon” is written next to it in red text. a caption at the top says “when lemon”. end transcript]

this one

my teacher didn’t find it funny at all
