Remember, EM POC only!
How are you all doing? Anything exciting you wanna share? Anything you wanna share that’s not so exciting but rather frustrating instead?
Spill it all here, comrades.
It’s official, I’m going to be a bus driver!
Congratulations bus driving is always good. School, Public trans or something else?
I’m a very private trans
It’s gonna be public transit
Let’s go that’s definitely the best route to go through. Opens the door to a lot more job with the city/whatever, keep your ear out for new positions that sound interesting, there’s always something.
Something something (joke about crazy bus or desert bus)
test
Thank you for your service. As someone who uses public transport a lot… you folks are the real heroes
ayy nice

I’m gonna go first: I’m getting closer and closer to this utterly amazing, beautiful person that I have been giving so much love to as of late. Her heart is growing for me; she is getting so much more excited to talk to me and spend time with me, and I’m just feeling blessed that I shot my shot. A part of me, initially, was like, “Nah, no chances, Angel. Just don’t say anything,” but I’m glad I didn’t listen to that part!
ALWAYS SHOOT YOUR SHOT. Happy it worked out for you. The worst regret is to think “what if”.
nice! always shoot your shot
Happy this relationship is going well for you!
Happy this relationship is going well for you!
We should make a News or Megathread on Malawi one day. Its an African country of 20 million people and I bet a way to high amount of folks dont even know it exists. Mind you I dont have much knowledge on it either.
Here is its flag which looks pretty cool I think.
agreed its a beautiful country
All we need is to file in the info…
Once you get labeled as “bad” by western white liberals, there’s literally nothing you or their governments can do to prove otherwise, more than a 100k likely dead in Gaza and they’re still acting like Hamas is satan
they’re still acting like Hamas is satan
Alotta projection from the Great Satan and the ‘Little’ Satan
Every condemnation a confession
Sometimes I watch white people instinctively clump together with each other and immediately distrust them.
Greetings folks.
Im back from my vacation. It was nice but im happy to be back home. (Will write more on it). Just saying hi to the new thread.
Usually in wars, a family buries a soldier. but in wars against America a soldier buries his family.
A white non-vegan tried to whitesplain veganism to me today and I think I deserve financial compensation for that tbh.
What a fucking coincidence! Me and my white partner (both vegan) have been involved in awful social media drama because of this. Tons of white non-vegans were saying that “It’s offensive to call what animals are going through as slavery!” and when I expressed disagreement as a black person whose grandparents were born in their country of origin when it was still a fucking British colony, they called me her “token.” They kept making these complaints about “white veganism,” and now we’re involved in drama mainly because there’s this very upset white woman who is using her drones to harass us and she is shittalking us and other vegans on her livestreams obsessively as well. We’re working on getting her booted because she apparently has a long history of bullying people, so this is just a part of her whole schtick. And, yes, she is the person that this post is about. Every bit of this drama is deeply unserious yet also seriously frightening at the same time. These people are so concerning that it almost feels like some very depraved, elaborate trolling scheme.
What is it with white non-vegans and thinking they’re morally superior to everyone? isstg
Gotta love how these people literally said that “”““white veganism””“” is a form of white supremacy. It’s fucking absurdly ironic.
It’s like one of those Zionist Gentile Germans trying to project their own views of Jews onto Palestinians…
Another comparison that works is Zionist Gentiles finding ways to accuse anti-Zionist Jews of being antisemitic, which, somehow, I’ve seen.
I’m so lucky that I have a fantastic falafel place near me. I’ve had some really awful falafel before and now that I know the joys of a good falafel sandwich I can never go back.
I’ve had some really awful falafel
Guess you could say you falafel’d…
now that I know the joys of a good falafel sandwich I can never go back.
Huh, srsly tho, I never rlly knew there was such things as falafel sandwiches…
Nice
it’s falafel, some veggies, and tahnini sauce in a pita. just amazing.
Liberalism means not talking about things like cause and effect, even when it’s blatantly obvious.
Rant about Isreal,Antisemitism
It seems the primary contradiction for antisemitism, at least in this moment, is isreal. We cannot target antisemitism until we solution isreal, which is nothing short of disarming and returing Palestinian land.
Why does it feel whenever this conversation starts, we devolve into land acknowledgement like statements that materially mean nothing like “It’s Zionism not Judaism”. As I do strongly agre with the statement, when laws are being passed saying “Actually zionism is Judaism and calling someone a zionist is antisemitic”, then must we continue to put this asterisk on our statements? The topic is now, the Jewish religion has been hijacked by genocidal freaks who want to hide behind their religion to commit evil acts. Freaks who successfully used their power to give themselves political cover, in the legal sense. Note, this is the same framing people had no issues spewing about Islam when suicide bombings and terrorist attacks were on the rise but they hold their tongue now.
I’m really tired of having to center Jewish voices and feelings( even anti zionist ones) when it’s Palestine that’s the victim right now. My heart does go out to anti zionist Jews though, it must be lonely to be in a religion that has powerful people progressing a genocide. But the victims right now are Palestinians and anything less takes away from the current issue; a state propped up by foreign funding is allowed to commit countless warcrimes while genociding the native population.
This has been happening for ages in the UK and it’s insane… Jeremy Corbyn got labelled an antisemite years ago for the even mildest anti Israel statement, it’s a disgusting but effective strategy
However it’s working less and less now, people are less likely to care about ‘the protests make me feel unsafe’ types when they see photos of the babies Israel is killing
Meeting my Girlfriend later today. I got them a gift from my vacation (nothing super fancy) I hope they like it.
White Guatemalans are the most insufferable people. No I don’t care that your grandparents moved from Denmark and that’s why you have blue eyes. Now go away and get some damn sunscreen.
salty rant
I hate english. I hate that I dream in english. I hate that I now mostly think in english. I hate how rigid it feels and like I can’t describe the most basic shit sometimes, because some concepts just don’t exist in english. I hate how anglos literally couldn’t be fucked to come up with names for some plants, animals or cloud formations or whatever, and just use latin instead to make themselves look more sophisticated. I hate that I had to switch languages mid-life and now I’m shit at both. I hate that I used to be such an avid reader, until I was dropped into a community of crackers where I was the only immigrant and convinced myself that I should only be reading in english from now on to help me learn the language better - it made me hate books and reading. I have no problems in everyday conversation, but can’t read a book without a dictionary, because some anglo has to show off their big fucking dick about how many fancy words they know and how that makes them better than you. I hate that I don’t get to talk to anyone in my native language anymore apart from a couple hours a few times a year. I hate the people who correct your grammar when you’re the person breaking your tongue to express yourself in a way they would understand, especially when they know exactly what you meant already and are “just trying to be helpful”. I hate the extra layer of politeness that gets smeared over every aspect of communication in the imperial core, like some kind of McCustomerService culture. I feel so trapped in this anglo nightmare mind prison.
Idk this is a big rant and some of these things probably aren’t that much of a big deal, but I’m feeling very fed up and salty that I struggle to express myself (I’m sure it’s related to autism as well).
I only speak English and I feel the same way lmao…it’s not just you. English is not a very efficient language. It’s not spelled the same way it sounds. It’s probably the only language where we have something like a thesaurus. Why do synonyms even exist in the first place? English is nice when we have very specific words (like “pretentious” vs. “ostentatious”), but I’d gladly trade those for consolidation of words like ran, sprint, dash, dart, race, hastened, and hurried into one word.
Ironically enough, yk how Pierre Poillievre said he liked Anglo-Saxon words for their simplicity…
Honestly, I am now appreciating more the Romance and Greek influences, if not Germanic, of the language, for the fact that they can easily be broken down in etymology and yet are more technical, than just the Anglo-Saxon base… especially when used in political language
“National Liberation”, “Cultural Hegemony”, “Base and Superstructure”…
And I’ll bet yer ass, there’d be like, Idk, a Spanish cognate of those terms
If you want to code, you’re basically forced to learn English because virtually all coding languages are based on English.
Also, hearing the most random gibberish set of noises which is supposed to be how a crakkker reads your name

And then when they realise they’re butchering it, they give themselves permission to come up with a borderline offensive (at best) nickname for you without asking how you might feel about that
It’s especially more shit when English is a co-official language of someone’s personal nation of origin, and people keep on using {Insert language}-ish, a mix of native tongue and English, to commonly communicate…
Definitely. My partner’s home country is basically in this situation after the british were done with it. To the point where my partner comes from a family that only spoke english at home (or rather a mix, like you say, but it definitely leans heavily english). They now find it extremely difficult to learn the language of their diaspora later in life due to dyslexia, as well as social stigma of not knowing it and others not seeing them as >ethnicity< enough.
So tired
Rojo, it’s time for yer next struggle session
I always have the luck, or maybe misfortune, of missing out on all of the struggle sessions
I want to be like Kenny but I end up feeling like Spenny …
