Strange roadside buildings where you shouldn’t ever go.

in hindsight, it makes a lot of sense that macklemore would happily release a free palestine song that is AS balls-out anticapitalist and antiimperialist as it is, considering in 2011 he won a grammy with a song all about being poor and spending your money wisely while still being cool and looking fresh, bemoaning blind consumption.

it was a small domino to start with, sure, but the trail is there.

yes!

and that person just happened to be the person who is currently the most celebrated rapper in the world, Kendrick Lamar! he was apologizing for winning over Good Kid, M.a.a.d. City!

funny enough, he did NOT apologize to the other artists, and two of them are Drake and Kanye, which is EXTRA hilarious considering how well that decision also aged.

a lot of people are bringing up a very good point:

Macklemore has been an ally this whole fucking time, making whole songs dedicated to LGBT and BLM stuff. nobody ever talked shit about him for anything other than being uber-corny.

i think now that we're in the post-cringe era there's a lot of people remembering where we left him and thinking "oh fuck im so sorry white boy"

getting second hand embarrassment on the dash tonight

hey reminder to continue boycotting eurovision and instead turn your eyes on gaza where the last media outlet al jazeera has just been shut down so that Israel can launch its attack on the most densely populated area in the world without scrutiny. Dont stop talking about Palestine

don’t stop talking about what’s happening

From one of the buildings waves a Palestinian flag. Above her head is a moon, olives, stars, a dove, key, and the Palestinian flag. End ID]

I'm actually worried about the possibility one of my friends has been killed by zionist terrorists can we quit the discourse and focus on what's important which is saving people's lives.

Actually crazy to say "Fuck the celebrities that have stood silent in the face of the extermination of my nation and recently the possible recent killing of my friend" just to have people act shocked. How are y'all still wired into celebrity culture at this stage. Fuck every celebrity that hasn't done anything. Fuck every celebrity's complacence. Fuck celebrities. Fuck capitalism. Fuck the entertainment industry. But no you need to know why I hate Anya Taylor Joy.

I HATE ALL OF THEM. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF MY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN EXTERMINATED. AND THEY'RE STILL CHURNING OUT CONTENT TO DISTRACT YOU FROM IT.

nobody better be posting about the met gala without mentioning the giant pro-palestine demonstration going on outside

the gemful visitor

c.... can i add something?

...of electric sheep?

dandelions deserve more respect than they get

you say “weeds” I say “widespread non-native edible plant and early-blooming pollinator resource that is not considered invasive because it behaves politely and does not cause deleterious ecological consequences”

The dandelions aren’t gonna fuck you bro

they have and they will

those guys

Touch his mind Lord is going to be a part of my vocabulary forever now

- Stimpy and Olive not being camera shy.

they look like a couple that defied all odds to be together.

genuinely, samir34's art of muslim dragonball characters is what artists in galleries are desperately trying to emulate. his shit has so much actual heart in it

I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."

"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.

"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?

"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.

If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.

You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.

"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.
