We have GOT to resist the normalization of child labor. The decline of education is not a reason for children to join the workforce. “Labor shortages” are not a reason for children to join the workforce. Parents’ weakened earning power is not a reason for children to join the workforce.
If children need to work to be able to eat, your society is not doing well.

genuinely one of the saddest parts of this new era of the internet is how hard it is to rick roll someone now. with people’s attention spans shortening so much, they wouldn’t even get through the first few bait seconds before clicking off the video. like i saw a comment that ended with “btw i made all of this up” and the replies kept treating it so seriously because none of them finished the entire 4 sentence comment. and We’re no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I (do I) A full commitment’s what I’m thinking of You wouldn’t get this from any other guy I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
I may be becoming the guy at work who won’t let people talk bad about their own singing voices, but to be fair people keep talking bad about their singing voices to me
I mention karaoke offhandedly and people start describing ways that their singing voices are supposedly bad and I just
“people tell me I sing along to everything an octave lower than it’s supposed to be” yeah dude you have a deep voice. that’s what you’re supposed to do when the song isn’t in your range and you’re not trying to sing harmony. you bring it into your range while still following the melody. and you’re doing that without even thinking about it!
one of my coworkers was at karaoke with me and they were talking shit about their voice too like bro. sure it was off sometimes but when it was on you sounded like a fuckin angel. I am tapping the sign. I can tell you what you picked out as sounding bad, it was lack of airflow control and occasionally some notes that may be out of your range
what gets me is like. it says something about societal messages around singing when a bunch of teachers, who will talk about growth mindsets all day long, are like “oh yeah I’m just naturally a bad singer and always will be”
like I said in another reblog chain, singing is a skill. or really a bunch of complicated interweaving skills. and if you don’t wanna improve your singing that’s cool, but you absolutely could if you wanted to
i saw someone use the phrase “this is supposed to be leftism 101” and i think i’ve fully come around to the idea that “leftism” or “basic leftist principles” are just rorschach phrases for whatever the speaker believes

Both of these
I’m sorry, it had to be added
Every single discussion about a good villain/hero dynamic ALWAYS comes back to these two
Still traveling and cannot pet my kitty but the cat cam keeps catching her walking around with my sock
It’s her favorite my sock so I don’t even put it away in the dresser. It needs to be somewhere she can find it.
New day new sock
Happy to report she was batting it around and rolling around with it like little baby
Criminal, caught on security footage 🥺
