When they forget to switch to their "woman face" accounts.

If these voters are not gonna actually do their JOB, then they shouldn’t be voters at all.

I am so tired of Animation movies being treated as just a wave off category to these voters. They should be treated the viewed the same as any other film, period. Why is that so hard?

DO YOUR DAMN JOOOOOB.

I'm so fucking tired of all these shitheads who can't handle growing up and making it everyone's problem. All that shit is still there, there's literally nothing in this photo that was taken away from him. He just became an adult.

Nostalgia is a weapon. You don’t miss the early 2000s, you miss being a stupid child. You want to be stupid again. You want your parents to take care of you. You are 12.

Strong reminder: women have not been independent for as long as some folks would like you to believe. We’ve lost rights that we never should have lost.

The murder was a claim jumper. Apparently the patriarch in question had been claim jumped in the past and was like "never doing that again" and lo- he gets his claim staked and comes with the wagon of family.

Theres a camp fire on the new claim. So lore goes - he solves this with a shotgun.

The bigamy was just we have tales of one of out fam who kept going west and telling his wife "I'll set things up and send for you' and...instead finding a new lady out west. We think he did this at least twice.

This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.

Though apparently some folks give you funny looks when you explain "oh yea - we are pretty sure theres a murder victim on the family claim- we just...decided not to look for it or worry about it. It was ages ago."

I guess my confusion is partially cause my fam was one of those wandering pioneer types but we never lied to ourselves about it.

The answer for us was: crimes, fleeing the queen, and bigamy

We are currently living under the regime that Epstein built. Every bit needs to be dismantled. And every person prosecuted.

This cartoon was made by Yuliy Ganf who was best known for his cartoons in the satirical magazine Krokodil (this one 1953, #4)

The four waiter (US, UK, France and West Germany) are serving piles of money to a soldier, labeled β€œWar”. The four other tables are β€œEducation”, β€œHealth Care”, β€œLibraries” and β€œArt”.

If you agree with this please take action against KOSA with us, keep annoying your legislators. We must erode support.

A covered litter box. A fluffy kitten sits inside, facing out, her little front paws resting on the bottom edge of the entrance opening. She looks a little concerned.

This pic for a litter box looks like the kitten is working at a beachside snack shack and it's her first day and in her head, as she says, "Welcome to Herring House, how may I help you today?" she's silently thinking, "Please just want oyster crackers," because she ate all the herring.

If you work in a creative industry, you *must* read this

β€œIf you were a man, every one of those negatives would be in the positive column.” - My first performance review in games included as negatives: β€œpersonality is too big, too confident, asks too many questions”

Yes, there’s a double standard

ironic that pete docter said they're not making hundreds of millions of dollars in therapy when he...directed...two movies specifically about human emotions and consulted therapists for the project

Not all the angelic powers are in Heaven, y'know? There are days when God says ro one or another of them, "Hey, it's *your* day to walk with the one who flies the Bat."

Even if you strongly disagree with their government, there is no justification to do this atrocity to their population, period.

I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going β€œwow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic
