It is horrifying, to be sure. But it's not the baby wasp's fault that it was born in a house made of food, that also happened to be alive. And it's not the mother's fault that the only childcare option nature has given her is inside a living spider. It is horrifying, and yet the wasp is innocent- it is just doing what nature intended, in order to survive. Humans, on the other hand-- the worst humans are the most powerful, and everyone and everything they torture and kill could have been avoided. Humans are omnivores and can choose to eat food that hasn't been tortured. Humans do not need to wage war, or run prisons, or do any other terrible things. Humans can survive without those things, and yet some humans choose to, even though they have the choice not to and brain to understand why it's bad. That is why the worst humans are worse than parasites.
Just bc you're not into it doesn't mean you need to kinkshame!
Yeah! They just eat (1) tarantula and then go the rest of their lives eating nectar. And they don't make the tarantulas extinct! Whereas a small handful of the worst humans are accelerating the holocene extinction by using their systemic power to block solutions to climate change, resulting in a fuckton of unnecessary extinctions. Parasites are so much better!
Parasites are also better than the worst of humans. They just take a little food, not more than they need, and they let the host go about their life a lot of times.
The bug is good and cool. Bugs need love too. The worst bug is miles better than the worst human. Bug supremacy <3
Because the US govt is composed of genocidal shits, that's why
Yeah I don't know the exact start, which will be decided by the survivors (if there are any) I guess, but I do think it's already begun.
If you've ever wondered what you'd do in a genocide, the answer is whatever you're doing now.
wwiii has started. Help people.
Welcome to wwiii it's already started. Fuck everything. Help people.
If you've ever wondered what you'd do during a genocide the answer is whatever you're doing now
t*rrorist/ extremist/ Islamic extremism
anything that erases queer Palestinians
Anything that treats the deaths of Palestinians as "less bad" or "deserved" or "it's sad but Hamas did something"
claims of wrongdoing by Hamas that are unevidenced
Reminds me of the kids who were punished for saving their classmates from asthma attacks. One was punished for "sharing a controlled substance", an inhaler, and the other was punished for carrying a kid to the nurse after the teacher told the class to stay in their seats while she waited for an email response from the nurse, even after the kid had collapsed on the floor from minutes of not being able to breathe. https://archive.is/xwnju
THERE ARE TRANS PEOPLE WHO GET KILLED IN EVERY GENOCIDE
THERE ARE TRANS PEOPLE GETTING GENOCIDED IN PALESTINE
STOP THINKING ONLY WESTERN QUEERS MATTER
STOP THINKING ONLY WESTERN QUEERS EXIST
EVERY GENOCIDE KILLS QUEERS
QUEER PEOPLE ARE IN EVERY GROUP EVEN IF YOU DON'T SEE THEM
YES EVEN IN GROUPS OF "THE STRAIGHTS" OR "THE CIS" IT'S CALLED CLOSETING
seriously white queer genocidal takes are really pissing me off. Don't let our communities be twisted to supporting this vile bloodshed.
Also: sometimes, don't ask your boss. Just do it.
This is what happens when society is centered around profit. The need of the institution to avoid liability, potential liability, is put higher than a person's life. The staff member probably feared they'd lose their job or be retaliated against if they made a real decision. The boss made a choice to defend the institution at any cost.
What a fucked up system.
Life saving necessities are right there and they're systematically denied to the ones who need them. We have enough housing to house the homeless. We have enough food to feed the hungry. We have enough medicine to heal the world. Yet doing all these things is a threat to profit, and so instead we feed bodies into the profit grinder, and the capitalists become rich and powerful on their blood.
Following the statements from Israel’s Prime Minister, President, and Minister of Defense that suggest all Palestinian people deserve to be bombed by Israeli forces, Israeli officials have doubled down and now claim that Palestinians are also responsible for forcefully occupying their own land.
Archived version >Following the statements from Israel’s Prime Minister, President, and Minister of Defense that suggest all Palestinian people deserve to be bombed by Israeli forces, Israeli officials have doubled down and now claim that Palestinians are also responsible for forcefully occupying their own land.
>After he stated that Palestinian civilians are involved with Hamas and could have “risen up” and “fought against them in a coup d’etat” if they were actually against the terrorist group, Israeli President Isaac Herzog has now claimed that Palestinians are responsible for their own apartheid as well.
>“If they were really so opposed to us air striking them, why would they let us take their land from them in the first place?” Herzog told reporters. “Obviously, they can only blame themselves for what happened, and now they have to suffer the consequences. You reap what you sow!”
>Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has now deleted his tweet that read, “This is a struggle between the children of light and the children of darkness, between humanity and the law of the jungle,” but he later circled back to this sentiment by saying that Israel has never done anything wrong and they should be able to completely level Gaza and the innocent civilians who live there.
>“We have the right to eliminate Hamas and every child that may get in our way,” Netanyahu said at his latest press conference. “Because we’ve always had the best intentions for the last 75 years. The Palestinians on the other hand? They obviously occupied their own land themselves. Israel would never do something like that.”
>This week, Israeli forces have launched hundreds of air strikes on Gaza, killing more than 3,400 Palestinians and injuring more than 12,000 others. These attacks, along with Israel cutting off food, water, electricity, medicine and fuel from Gaza, have caused civilians to run dangerously low on basic necessities, but Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant seems to think that the Palestinian people brought this tragedy onto themselves.
>After Gallant made a public remark saying, “We are imposing a complete siege on Gaza. No electricity, no food, no water, no fuel. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals, and we will act accordingly,” the Israeli Minister of Defense further elaborated on why the Israel-Palestine conflict is basically just the Palestine-Palestine conflict.
>“Everyone knows that we’re the good guys and they’re the bad guys.” Gallant told the press. “Obviously, the only reason why Gaza civilians live in one of the most densely populated places on earth is because they like it that way. I mean, they could leave anytime they want!”
>When asked about where these civilians could go, the Minister of Defense declined to comment.

With all the bad stuff that's happened in the past, all the bad stuff going on in the present, and the forecast being full of terrible stuff in the future, now's a great time to look for new ways to get through all the bullshit. What are your weird, unconventional, or non-traditional ways for coping with things when times get tough?
Centrists will be like "I agree with parts of socialism. And parts of nationalism. That's why I'm a national socialist."
