I've been struck by this attitude in several works of utopian literature. The most glaring case is The Southern Land, Known (1676) by Gabriel de Foigny, in which giant hermaphrodite Australians have done away with all the insects in their country.
This passage shocked me to my core.
The loss of biodiversity isn't a tragic accident or oversight, it was the plan!

I should read this.
There’s a book titled “Mothers Who Can't Love: A Therapist's Guide to Healing from the Emotional Damage of Unloving Mothers,” I recommend this book and years of therapy for women who struggled with mothers who were unloving! Helped me tremendously.

Dreamed I was wearing a red dress and red shoes. I was also riding a red bike through a city. That's the second dream I've had lately where I was wearing something red.

You only have to go back a few generations in my family to find Irish people forced to leave their homeland because British colonialism manufactured a famine and made it impossible to stay. It destroyed the region I descend from.
It's the literal reason I'm English.

By the way everyone, what right-wing politicians say about immigrants is literally also what they believe about you.
You having an ordinary job is a kind of favour your generous employer and the nation has done you, allowing you to reproduce your existence despite not being AN ENTREPRENEUR

You might think that the "Labour" Party would consider labour itself to be a contribution to society, alas no, only "having lots of money" is a real contribution.
Perhaps they need to change their name to the Capital Party?

Hey everyone, here's the news, if you aren't a high earner, entrepreneur or a "skilled frontline worker" (whatever the fuck that means) the "Labour" Party says you aren't contributing, you're a taker!

fuck you bitch
A teacher in Greenville, North Carolina told her black students that if it wasn’t for the constitution, they would be her slaves.
Other students began using the N word and when a black student spoke out, the teacher replied “it’s ok we’re all a little bit racist”

I welcome a world where people are truly afraid to cross Black women.
It'd be a nice fucking change of pace.

Waymo is killing pets
new video shows Kit Kat did not “dart underneath” the vehicle as waymo originally claimed. he was sitting under the car in front of the right wheel before it just ran him over. someone even approached the vehicle to try and get him to move seconds before it happened. missionlocal.org/2025/12/sf-w...
