Well it was asking them far too much to even play lip service to idea of not sending Israel weapons.

There are reports of US/Israeli strikes on or near the homes of former Iranian pres, Ahmadinejad, former reformist presidential candidate, Mir Hossein Mousavi, and various leftist activists. If the US/Israel really wanted the “people” to take back the country, they wouldn’t assassinate these folks
When is a girl's elementary school a military asset
transvestigation is a punishment that happens to cis women who say anything a transphobe doesn't like. they don't even have to actually think you're trans, because the accusation itself is meant to be the insult. it happens to me a lot
Trying to get into a PhD program and looking forward to having this same problem

every leftist i know is very excited about technology but unfortunately they want tech that improves society and makes people's lives easier and that's harder for wealthy prdophiles to build a trillion dollar industry bubble around

A poster featuring a close up of a headstone on the left. The headstone is light in color with lichen growing on it. It is shaped like a cut tree and has a circular emblem that reads, “Woodmen of the World Memorial. Dum Tacet Clamat” with a tree and some leaves in the center. On the right of the poster is a green background with six circles that have the emblems of six fraternal societies with headstones found in cemeteries. The top left has a wavy line with an X inside of it and the letters TMAV. The top right has a capital G inside of a compass and protractor. The Middle left has a lion on top of an inverted triangle with the letters RCF on the corners and the number 89 inside. The Woodmen of the world emblem is center right. Bottom left is a hexagon with 3s in the top triangles and 7s in the bottom triangles. The bottom right is a three link chain with FLT inside the chain links. The text on the poster reads, “ Arkansas Archeology Month 2026. Decrypting Gravestones: Symbolism in Cem
Arkansas Archeology Month starts in just 2 weeks!! Plan to join us at one of the over 50 events taking place across the state in March. Check out our website for details about the poster, the full calendar & info about how you can get involved & be win a prize!! archeology.uark.edu/learn-discov...
i feel like losing touch with the common man would be awesome. i hope that happens to me someday
Unrelated, ISO a physical copy of "Cute Accelerationism" by Ireland and Kronic.
Straight up DMing a publisher to see if they're going to reprint an objectively dumb book
I appreciate it, I might send a couple your way!
I also think part of it is who I'm sending poems to now. Rather than smaller internet pubs I'm shooting for more of the MFA/printed journals and I think they probably have a narrower range of poetry they're looking for
There's certainly worse directions
(Hasn't had a poem published in going on two years)
The U.S. government, under the Biden and Trump administration, provided weapons to the Israelis allowing them to evaporate thousands of men, women and children in the Palestinian Genocide.
The evil that my tax dollars helped fund on a bipartisan basis makes me sick. It should make us all sick.
"where do we go after discord" nowhere. this was a mistake. good bye
"We created this bundle to raise funds for Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota in response to the Trump administration sending ICE agents to the Minneapolis area and the reckless murder of an innocent people by ICE agents. ILCM provides free immigration legal representation to low-income immigrants and refugees in Minnesota and North Dakota. They also work to educate the community about immigration matters and advocates for public policies which respect the universal human rights of immigrants. ILCM provides services based on capacity and has a generally high demand for services. The more we are able to fundraise, the more people they will be able to assist."
A bundle of 1400+ games for $10 (or more, if you so choose) has launched, raising money for a great cause.

Sometimes I see a video of a tiger and I'm just absolutely awe struck by them. What a wonderful animal to exist, all muscle and teeth and claw.
Truly I think the world is beautiful and there's many things to be thankful for in it.

fwiw I've also noticed that there's a pretty loud antisemitic angle being played at the most recent release as well. Really dislike how normalized various forms of hate are becoming.
