im about ready to lose it with some of y'all. like you could at least acknowledge that eurovision is blatantly anti-palestinian??? it's like they told israel "you did enough illegal occupation of lands that you can be an honorary european"
what like actually is the middle class are they proletarian or bourgeois how does this work
you're using two different ontologies:
one, the socialist one, talks about society as of class war: precariat, lumpen, prole, bourgeoisie/capitalist, aristocrat, etc.
the other is liberal, focused on how much money one has rather than their relation to the means of production used to get that money: poor, lower class, middle, upper/rich
a prole, someone who doesn't own the means of production but puts them to use in exchange for a wage to the benefit of someone else, may be very rich; that is, may be middle or upper class.
someone that does own the means of production, a capitalist, despite their systematic leverage over proles, be poor/lower class if they can't compete with other capitalists in the market place.
someone like Beyoncé, to flatten their actual position, is a worker, just a very rich worker but who ultimately doesn't own her means of production, but rather gets paid well.
Your local mom and pop store, struggling alongside corporations like Walmart, Amazon, Whole Foods, etc., are poor and, again, struggling, even though they don't depend on a boss for their income.
it's two different ways of dissecting society with different purposes in mind.
hello park ranger! it’s great to see you here! yes, we understand that smoking, drinking, and being here after dark is banned in the national forrest….
Please, never let this meme die.
This is the best one I’ve seen so far
What kind of quantum fucking memeing from 2056 are you people beaming to us
It’s fucking back
shooting star. i can’t believe i’m hearing shooting star again in the year 2020
Interesting to call this “confiscating” when it’s just making the rich pay their fair share, especially considering all the stolen wealth from the bottom 99% and historic tax evasion.

A detail in RDR2 I hope was intentional is how at most of the camps Uncle's sleep spot is kinda all over the place. At Shady Belle he just plops down in the middle of a hallway. But when they get to Beaver hollow and Micah and them are starting to really threaten him he sleeps behind Arthur's cot.
In case anyone’s interested, this is what he’s saying:
“Está lloviendo… Estás aquí tirado, estás aquí con la Chispis… Aquí andamos, los dos, mirad, ¡mirad qué foto de tontos! Yo sé que estás viendo el vídeo y diciendo ‘¿pero qué hace este?’ Pues aquí, pegándome un baño a las siete de la tarde, que está cayendo aquí lo que no está escrito. Y aquí, con mi amiga. ¿Cómo estás, amiga? ¿Cómo lo llevas? ¿Bien?”
Aka
“It’s raining… You’re just hanging out here, you’re with Chispis… Here we are, the both of us, look, look at this pair of idiots! I know you’re watching this video and saying ‘what is this dude doing?’ Well, here I am, taking a bath at 7pm, because it’s pouring cats and dogs. And I’m here with my friend. How are you, friend? How are you doing? Good?”
truly begging the internet as a whole to learn the difference between the “oooh i’m not like other girls i’m cool & quirky” mentality & the genuine feeling of being a total outsider among their peers that many young women experience, usually due to holding one or more marginalized identities. like “i don’t fit in with & feel ostracized by the majority of my classmates” is not inherently a pick me thing & we really don’t need to be shaming young women for expressing that they feel this way
“he’s a bottle blonde” this or “it’s a mutation/defect" that.
actually Rex just went prematurely grey-to-white because of Anakin.
being a girl and hitting puberty is so traumatic. you go from being a genderless little free thing to being hit with shaving and makeup and growing breasts and skincare and menstruation and suddenly being sexualised when like a few years ago you could take your shirt off to play in the stream and trade yugioh cards with the boys and come home covered in mud and not even think about it. and then you spend years hating being a girl and hating everything puberty did to you and wishing you could be a boy or be completely genderless again and it takes you Many years to come to terms with yourself Or you simply try to Lean In to everything and do makeup tutorials on YouTube and claim it’s for fun. like how can this be treated as normal
