If one person starts yelling, it’s easy from there. Don’t be afraid to be the first person to start yelling at a Nazi

Jeff Tischauser @jtischauser.bsky.social · 6d

A guy ran into a classroom at the University of Washington threw up Nazi salutes, yelled a bunch of slurs, then roughly 30 students chased him down, got him arrested.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON STUDENTS DO NOT FUCK AROUND WITH NAZIS. THIS IS AN IMAGE OF A YOUNG WOMAN SPAYING PEPPER SPRAY ON A NAZI BOY. HE LOOKS VERY TERRIFIED.

Who said I was? If I was it was probably just a healthy zest for living

Jorts (and Jean) @jortsthecat.bsky.social · 5d

I don’t understand the issue here. I’m not asking you to explain, I’m ok with my ignorance in this topic tbh

Jorts (and Jean) @jortsthecat.bsky.social · 5d

Well. I am not a lawyer, I say this all the time actually

If you politely mute when you aren't talking, it doesn't even matter if someone is scream meowing in the background of your zoom

an orange cat is on the floor on a towel with all his paws curled up. He isn’t screaming. But if he was, this wouldn’t affect you if you mute when you aren’t talking

Watching the Sumud Flotilla tonight and thinking about our friend Greta Thunberg, who was just arrested by Israel… and also countless other people who are just as brave even if we don’t know their names yet

NPR @npr.org · 6d

The Global Sumud Flotilla, with Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela's grandson and European lawmakers aboard, includes some 50 boats and 500 activists and is carrying a symbolic amount of humanitarian aid.

Activists say Israel's navy has begun intercepting a Gaza-bound aid flotilla

I'm finally back at it with stats!

Gonzo is at 96.03% for the month of September with 22 crimbs so far this month. He has a YTD ratio of 145 non-crimb to 127 crimb days.

Gonzo also has one 200% day and (144) 100% days. The bulk of his crimb days (91) are a 95%!

A bar graph outlining the number of deductions Gonzo has received for his misbehaviors each month. Gonzo received 22 deductions in January, 12 in February, 17 in March, 19 in April, 29 in May, 27 in June, 16 in July, 21 in August, and 22 as of September 29th.

A pie chart outlining Gonzo’s number of crimb (crime) days and non-crime days. The first section shows that Gonzo has 127 crime days, accounting for 46.7% of the year so far. The second section shows that Gonzo has 145 non-crime days, accounting for 53.3% of the year so far.

A pie chart outlining Gonzo’s behavior grade by number of days. The first section shows that he’s received a 200% behavior grade on 1 day / .4% of the time. The second section shows that he’s been 100% good on 144 days, or 52.9% of the time. The third section shows that he’s received a 95% behavior grade on 91 days, or 33.5% of the time. The fourth section shows that he has received a 90% good behavior grade on 22 days, or 8.1% of the time. The fifth section shows that he has received an 85% good behavior grade on 8 days or 2.9% of the time. The sixth section shows Gonzo has received an 80% on 4 days or 1.5% of the time. The last section shows that he has received less than 80% on 2 days or .7% of the time.

That also sounds fake. If I am not supposed to kick it around why is it something I walk in

Jorts (and Jean) @jortsthecat.bsky.social · 13d

Allegedly they wouldn’t “have to vacuum so much” if I stopped “being so dramatic” when they are “just trying to brush me” which all sounds fake. I choose neither
