During the summer months, you can just get away with wearing a swimsuit most days. Just get used to going in the pool pretty frequently after workouts and voila, your laundry and shower is taken care of. I used to ride my bike to the pool every day then do this, but I was like 10 so nobody raised an eyebrow

This is awesome

This was a great idea btw OP thank you!

Keep your eye on the ball (not the balls)

I see you’ve commented the same thing in 3 different locations on this thread. Do you think if you just keep saying it enough times, that will make it true?

Don’t take everyone else’s word for it… Look up statistics on politically motivated shootings. Try several different sources and you might be surprised at the results. I know I was.

“Tyranny is the Deliberate Removal of Nuance”

Like Texas! We should al donate to talarico’s campaign bc this could be HUGE

Mammers

I would kick

At first I thought this was a new term for a lady who takes a lot of pills, and is a “pill,” herself. Sounds like Hillary so really it’s perfect 🧑‍🍳😘

Do you want a Godzilla? Because this is how you get a Godzilla

Universal basic income would be a huge way to facilitate this. When we have a bit of a safety net, we can afford to take a few weeks off for a general strike. We can leave that evil corporate job, or educate ourselves on issues that need our attention. Studies have shown that with a little more time each week, people tend to invest more in the community or mutual aid. Not to mention, we could compel billionaires to join and facilitate the greatest redistribution of wealth in history. There’s a foundation (ITSA) attempting to start it’s own UBI via an app I recently joined. DM me if you want the link :)

Haha ok ok my bad it’s called comingle and i think it’s still in beta phase for another month…

Great. What are you all going to do about the policies he changed?

Perfect timing. I just started donating to a new startup (comingle) that seems as promising as Wikipedia once was. Nonprofit whose goal is to start their own universal basic income for users who don’t want to wait for the government to start one. Now I can cancel my Wikipedia donations and not feel so bad

You love to see it

I think you mean you are being a prescriptivist. In a descriptivist action, they added the new definition to Merriam Webster like 2 years ago. This is because they decided it makes sense to have a different and more useful definition of “racism” and “racial prejudice.”

the purpose of refining the racism definition as “power + prejudice” was to move discourse away from the idea of being racist as a personal failing, and instead focus on structural oppression and the material reality of minority groups.

Basically liberal society largely seems to have conceived racism as ‘being irrationally mean’, but for people with a materialist anti-racist perspective, that definition isn’t productive or insightful and the lack of material, tangible progress for black people post-civil rights made it clear that there needed to be more focus on power dynamics and historical context to combat racism.

I’d recomend Beverly Tatum’s work , her perspective is very informed and compelling

This argument has been going on for 60 years, by historians and educators, black and white, who are much smarter than us… Here’s a reddit comment I found that detailed the argument well (paraphrasing)

Try reading the book, “Stolen Focus.” That helped me A LOT. At the time, my attention span was so sapped I couldn’t even read a book so I actually had to listen to it as an audio book. Lucky it’s a very good audio book because the author’s got a good speaking voice
