my god, he wrote a kabir poem

fascism looks like asking elderly & disabled individuals to turn their air conditioning off and die while your HOA/county also bans putting solar panels on your roof because “what if it’s ugly”
it’s also: telling people to evacuate their homes in a natural disaster and not offering them any method to leave whatsoever
71% of people who died in Hurricane Katrina were over the age of 60 or disabled
climate change will kill disabled people and the most vulnerable first. it already has. the fucking White House itself even admits they utterly failed disabled/elderly people in 2005
Waking up to headlines like this broke me. This is our worst nightmare happening to Hawaiians in real time
Stop! Releasing 2 minute songs!! Idc about TikTok!!! If it's a banger it needs to be at least 3:30.
6:50*
UGH! NO I HATE ANY AND EVERY SONG LONGET THAN 4:00 BY DEFAULT!!!
You’re not a music lover you’re a music tolerator. this is a conversation for music lovers only, which you are not. Remember that
on god this post sucks so much ass. just listen to the song again. its better to have something perfect contained in 2 minutes than to add bloat just for the sake of having a longer song.
It’s not bloat just bc you can’t appreciate the artistry expressed through ambiance and instrumentation or whatever it is the song is doing in an expanded form. Do you only listen to pop music? Such an insane thing to say and you’d know that if you listened to more types of music and adored the craft. You’re literally a music tolerator like I said above

Or water fountains, public washrooms, outdoors tables, etc, etc
Notice how removing seating doesnt actually prevent people from sitting it just makes them uncomfortable and makes public spaces more hostile it doesnt actually work at controlling their behavior not till a pig comes along anyways and they'll harass a homeless person/teen whatever they're sitting on.
One of the reasons I’m considering getting a rollator or a wheelchair again is so I’ll have seating when I need to go out and about. Bus service where I can afford to live sucks, and many bus stops don’t have any seating, hostile or otherwise.
The public belongs in public spaces.
And before anybody gets any funny ideas, Yes: I know that places like shopping centers and malls are considered private property. If that’s the case, then they should not be open to the public.

PPS: actual Washington Post quote
Just found out that the dietary calorie is still measured by burning food in a "bomb calorimeter" and then measuring the heat produced. There's no solid evidence that this method is at all equivalent to how our bodies process food (an entirely different chemical process from combustion), the accuracy of this system has been disputed for as long as it's existed, and there are no available alternatives
There are 4800 calories in a kilogram of dry sawdust even though wood is completely indigestible to humans, because calories don't measure nutritional value, just how well something burns
Nutritional "science" is pure bullshit
