Any day now they'll say something like Mamdani Men and say all his supporters are sexist.

I wonder if this is even real
I'm actually surprised more places aren't trying to mimic China by now, but I guess the sinophobia is pretty strong in the West
Not sure if you have them where you are, but orgs like Food Not Bombs will usually take fresh produce off your hands if you have extra. All the houses around here have orchards, gardens, etc and I have duped my neighbors into donating to them too. Told them the truth sort of, just left out the details because they are probably all magats. They give me all their extra harvest and I drive it into the city and drop it off.
The people with FNB hand it out fresh and make preserves and stuff before it goes bad. Highly recommend this if you have extra.
The other day it was miserably hot so my partner and I drove to the coast. We smoked weed on the beach and then again in the woods by the beach before eating some sandwiches. We went on a hike by the river and sat on the roots of a centuries old spruce tree while smoking more weed. We got fresh fruit smoothies from the Mexican place in town and then sat in the parking lot by the boat ramp watching birds for a while.
The back of our SUV is set up for camping so we took a nap by the bay before finally driving home. Temps at home were well over 90°F (32°C), but this part of the coast was blanketed in fog and never even got above 70°F (21°C). We got home just before dark and ended up moving our camping setup into our living room to sleep (no AC or even windows in the back of our cabin).
We live in the middle of nowhere so touching grass pretty much always happens, but that's the main reason we moved out this way. As an adult I always lived in cities, but I never quite realized how overwhelming it could be until I was pissed at my neighbors for always being loud af. I was looking for other places to rent and saw a dot on the map way the fuck out there with cheap rent and fiber internet. The house itself sucks, the well water is gross, but God damn I can see trees all around and there's a creek a few hundred feet from our door that's crystal clear and runs year round.
I miss being in a city sometimes. I miss organizing (but also I don't tbh) and I miss being able to walk to a store, but the older I get the worse my sensory issues get and burnout is creeping around every corner. I try to do some agitprop online (I want to dox myself so bad to see if anyone has seen any) because I feel like it makes up for my absence in normal society. It'll never be the same as in person organizing, especially in places that need it most like deeply conservative areas where I used to live, but I guess it's better than just ignoring everything completely.
Anyway, not entirely sure why I shared all of that, but I already typed it so yeah
The article even talks about how they use terms like female-centered instead of matriarchal because the so-called scholars don't wanna think about it
Benjamin Arbuckle, an archaeologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who was not involved in the study, wrote in a perspective in Science that "if the sex patterns were reversed, there would likely be little hesitation in concluding that patriarchal power structures were at play."
"This is reflective of the difficulty that many scholars have in imagining a world characterized by substantial female power despite abundant archaeological, historic, and ethnographic evidence that matriarchal fields of power were and are widespread," Arbuckle said.
Lmao Tlaib and Omar been saying this for years now and I'm sure there are plenty of others. Only the most naive libs think Dems give a fuck about any minority group outside of tokenism and getting votes (easy when the other main party doesn't even hide their hate)
Wtf is even wrong here? Am I missing something? The handwriting makes me think this is a pretty young kid, but also the whole thing feels like rage bait or something
250k is hilarious because that's less than the NYC mayors salary. Imagine leaving your home after having objective proof that people there like you...all for a bribe of one year's salary.
Brb writing alternate history where the US collapsed during the great depression and a communist revolution overthrew the gov and the statue of Liberty is now actually Marx wearing a dress, holding a hammer and sickle with a...copy of the Quran?
Just went on a 7am rant about this shit (sorry to my partner). I'll never understand people who are so confident about these things when they clearly haven't looked into it beyond the subject of reddit posts.
But yeah I'm in a fucking echo chamber because I hold an ideology that the US government has been stomping on for 100 years. I'm in an echo chamber when I can't even speak my mind without having to either explain everything I'm saying or find alternative words to use because everything left of GW Bush is satanic, genocidal, aUtHOriTAriAn, fascist (lmao), or whatever other nonsense they come up with.
I'm in an echo chamber when it took me like 20 years of studying human behavior, countless books and conversations with experts like labor historians. All those stats classes, being a self taught engineer, living all over the US and even in other countries for a while, and all the other shit I've done in my life that has informed my opinions. Literally every communist I know over the age of ~35 (grew up before internet search was easy) spent years figuring out they were actually not a liberal or a god damn libertarian (US variety) or anArChO caPiTAlisT.
Fuck I did the rant again
Have they ever? I'm not sure, but it seems like they usually break them. Hell, I thought they broke this one on the first day?
