Part of political discourse and action I'm constantly at odds with is the sheer pointlessness of it all, and if that feeling comes from a genuine evaluation of the existing power structures and their durability, or from a culture of learned helplessness that infects everyone

seeing red at the bluesky of it all with the iran news. top reply on a post calling israel and america rogue states being "what about russia?" says it all. cannot imagine having such a worldview. all this death, all this horror, to percieve it purely through liberal pointscoring is utterly inhuman

Every time polls show a left wing party/candidate that is popular among younger people neck-and-neck with someone, you know they're gonna win by a huge margin in the actual election

Manchester Arena bereaved families say MI5 must be fully included in new law on cover-ups
The law follows campaigning by families affected by the 1989 Hillsborough disaster that claimed 97 lives.

It's pretty funny how this is true across a wide range of sectors. Dudes who cover MMA, originally just because they thought cage fighting was awesome, just becoming the most jaded, most hardline workers rights people I've met.

once again reminding everyone that we have 100 years of study showing that more than 40 hours a week drops you under 40 hours of productivity basically immediately.

when designing a character an important part is deciding which fetish of yours they're catering too. that's what really separates a great character from a middling one.
