I am close to feeling like we need pitchforks, torches and shovels if this justice system won’t actually do anything…
We passed that point a while ago
- Comment on Americans rarely refer to the US as America 4 days ago:
I’m a US citizen and lived there most of my life but refuse to call myself American. I’d rather call myself after my home state or country of birth, It’s an embarrassment.
Helps that I live abroad though

You can use it to light kindling for a campfire
For bongs, may i recommend hemp wick

Does humanity solve the climate crisis
- Comment on why is the beginning on the left and the end on the right? 1 week ago:
It’s fairly arbitrary. Many languages write right to left, and some even write up and down

Didn’t aerial photos of that camp show mass graves and dead bodies…

It’s still good to trim the ends every now and then to clean them up
- Comment on Should longer hair be handled by salons or male barbers? 2 weeks ago:
It really depends on what you want to do with it, though I’d recommend a salon
- Comment on Should longer hair be handled by salons or male barbers? 2 weeks ago:
There’s no shame in taking care of your hair, regardless of gender. It’s called “hygiene”

They’re still around apparently

For a very, very brief moment, humanity did good science
- Comment on Humans on average get 2 hours of battery life for every hour they charge 3 weeks ago:
No wonder I crash after 8 hours
- Comment on In multiple shots (no pun intended) it is shown him holding a phone to record. Question is what happened to the phone and why not release his video? 3 weeks ago:
They’re probably trying to sell it on eBay as we speak
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 3 weeks ago:
Je connais aussi le français :) C’est un peu plus difficile que l’espagnol à cause des lettres qu’on ne prononce jamais, mais pas beaucoup en fait
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 3 weeks ago:
Spanish is phonetic, what you see is what you get. There’s a few rules around the pronunciation of the letter c and (q)u/h not being pronounced, but it’s otherwise pretty standard. Gender in Spanish isn’t that hard and most words have endings that hint at it.
- Comment on At this point, what should we do about the ICE Agents and Trump and such? 3 weeks ago:
Use the four boxes of liberty
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
He wants Greenland because it cuts Europe’s access to Canada
- Comment on If WWIII broke out tomorrow do you honestly believe america would win? 4 weeks ago:
Americans are already fleeing as political refugees, regardless of whether or not asylum is involved. I did it on a work permit but the mental and physical stresses are all there
- Comment on How long would it take a black Hole to fully absorb a person from event horizon to center of the earth style? 4 weeks ago:
Depends on who you ask
- Comment on What do all the subgenres of music mean? How does anyone make sense of them? 4 weeks ago:
It’s a language so that people can discuss varying levels of nuance with each other. You probably don’t care about the difference between industrial metal and folk metal, but metalheads certainly do. And even that’s a pretty top level example.
Same goes for every other genre/subgenre. Indie pop and bubble pop can be very different, and just because someone likes one doesn’t mean they’ll like the other.
There is also a historic factor in all this because genres are always influenced, derived from, or mixed with other genres. Triphop was born this way, as a mix of hiphop, jazz, dub, electronica, and others
- Comment on How does that craft where you stab a ball of fluff with a needle until it looks like something work? 4 weeks ago:
Huh I’ve tried felting cat hair before and had zero success. It’s too long, I ended up just burying it in regular felt. Whereas my dog’s hair was super easy to felt into a mini version of her
- Comment on At this point, what should we do about the ICE raids? If an ICE agent breaks in without a warrant or holds you at gunpoint, what do you do? 4 weeks ago:
There are four boxes of liberty. The soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammo box. Use them in that order
- Comment on How does that craft where you stab a ball of fluff with a needle until it looks like something work? 4 weeks ago:
It’s called felting. It’s just condensing all the hairs together. They have to be coarse enough to bind to each other
Fun fact, you can felt dog hair but not cat hair
- Comment on With the ICE raids coming up at a very faster rate, do we need more self-defense (or community defense organizing) classes? 5 weeks ago:
Yes.
- Comment on If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in? 5 weeks ago:
I can’t wait for the discovery phase of that lawsuit
- Comment on What are the limits to masked so called ICE agents? Are they just let off the hook and disobey laws while not identifying themselves? Why can't I be in the right by them stopping me first and shoot? 5 weeks ago:
As long as the fascists are in power, they are functionally above the law. We’ve seen them murder in broad daylight and rape without punishment.
