Oh joy, my government has fucked my access to this site. Demands age verification. Age verification method refused, no alternative. Daft thing is I shouldn't be able to see my own posts going by this totalitarian nonsense.

The CDC has turned off its vaccine search tool.

The vaccines.gov site now gives an error when you enter a valid zip code.

They also removed text saying “Vaccines can help you stay healthy” and added a banner saying the site is being updated.

I often say that Westerns do not and cannot really understand the Soviet Union or Russia. Prime example right here. This was literally the norm and it trickled all the way down to every member of the proletariat.

I literally owe my life to блат.

“Hope” is the thing with feathers –
That perches in the cage –
And sings the taunting songs –
That never stop –

Yet, tonight, tonight –
When you sleep –
I will eat it.

The UN Charter and international law are both meaningless

Certain countries can break as many ‘laws’ as they want and continue to do so without any punishment so why pretend we live by these rules 🤔

Don’t join GSUS thinking that’s the end of it. Our organizing requires you to be in your COMMUNITIES.

Regional chapters provide support and solidarity, but they only work with YOU. A national movement succeeds at the local level.

You’re telling me that right wing voters that Labour was trying to appeal to voted for a right wing party anyway and left wing voters decided not to vote for Labour because they’re too right wing now? Who could have possibly predicted this.

“Eugenics isn’t just about eradicating the lesser people like myself, like people with disabilities, it’s about attaching disability to marginalized communities in order to slate them for eradication.”
