The “I Get Shown Nat-Lottie Stuff, Which Is Amazing!” Thing Is Still Frying Me. Like, Courtney, Baby,

save a horse ride a cowgirl

surprise! The meaning of words changes as society advances. Five hundred years ago, a “factory” was a warehouse where traders would store their goods in a foreign country. Two thousand years ago, a “factorium” was an oil press.

“Technology” was once a created product. Now, it’s something specifically technical, running on electricity with wires and screens and making beeps and boops. That’s the way of the world, the way language functions and has always functioned.

— Ursula K. Le Guin, from “A Rant About ‘Technology’”

The difference is that, yknow, the bbc isn’t funded by an autocratic fascist government. England is not a police state with a vested interest in keeping its citizens misinformed. Russia… is.

rt is propaganda because it funded by russian government but bbc, australian broadcasting corporation, npr, korean broadcasting system, svt, television new zealand, radio canada, npo and france 24 totally objective source of informative news despite also being state funded. great work today everyone hit the showers

why is this fascist shit on my dash

It is the United States that is truly the axis of evil (1992)

my favourite part about this is how perfectly the Vestiges’ responses are written.

> tangentially connected question

> goodbye

this is how the entire game is.

wtf i love elder scrolls online

Happy two year anniversary to whatever the fuck this was

hating on Buddhism and Christianity is based but like… “the world is structured to deny people as much pleasure as possible” what??? are you talking about??? this is absolutely deranged conspiracy nonsense. do people actually believe that???

"desire is the root of all suffering" actually suffering is the root of all suffering. hope this helps!

I think I’ve been so conditioned by my friend group and my little corner of the internet that I’ve started being like. the opposite of heteronormative. homonormative. I was driving today and I saw two young women standing near to each other and went “omg lesbians!!!”

nothing about them remotely suggested that they were queer. I just saw two girls and automatically assumed they were gay and in love.

love when tumblr leftists are so desperate to lick autocrat’s boots that they just. outright lie. saw someone today claiming that homosexuality was never illegal in either the USSR or the DDR (that statement is demonstrably false, if you didn’t know)

it makes my job as an evil liberal painting socialists as insane freedom-hating authoritarians so simple. getting my CIA paycheck will be easy this month :)

Caesar was notably not corrupt, actually. His big thing was purging corruption from the Roman republic. You know who was corrupt? The Optimates - the old school conservative senators (like Brutus, Cassius, Decimus, Trebonius… all the big names in the conspiracy) who were perfectly happy getting rich off the system and were threatened by Caesar’s progressive policies.

get your history facts right, kids.
