So here's a thing.

Every time police in general, spend time and effort assaulting, chasing, and convicting innocent people... The actual criminals that harm people are running free.

Oh I'm a Hayley Williams fan. She makes great sad girl music!

Honestly, I've thought for years that the growth in songwriting and the honesty in personality that folks WANT from Taylor is what Hayley gives.

Putting this here so I don't have an attitude with a coworker but....

I guess my big question to Jay is: Why is the response to criticism about Jesse Singal "If you don't like it you can create your own instance and leave" and not "If Jesse want's to post he can create HIS own instance to post on"?

Homelessness is a problem that there is definitely a solution for. Like... the thing that we can give these people to help them with their problem is right in the name. And hey guess what, there's a lot of those going around!

happy sunday, remember that you are completely expendable to your employer and that when you die they will forget you ever existed within weeks and easily replace you

I was just telling my sister the other day that the old ladies SNAPPED when it came to hobbies! Crocheting!? Bitch it's soothing! But I gotta deal with this dumb shit instead because motherfuckers like racism more than social safety nets and vaccines.

Being a part of any marginalized group in the US is basically being Sisyphus, and the boulder is understanding how marginalized people are treated here, and the hill that keeps rolling that bolder back down is the comfort of the privileged. Specifically cishet white men but definitely not limited to

Whoever is in charge of NFL halftime shows was like "Oh they said they can't understand Kendrick? Oh that was a PROBLEM for them? Well, hope they can understand Spanish...."
