let’s invent a cool new social media trend where usamericans google “history of US intervention in latin america”

Hagamos una nueva OBLIGACIÓN ÉTICA en latinoamérica de conocer tu historia. No una trend, ni una moda, ni hashtag. UNA OBLIGACIÓN ÉTICA, para la gente de latinoamérica de conocer la historia de intervención estadounidense en toda Latam. Toda persona latina tiene que investigar sobre -al menos googlear una vez en su vida-: - Operación Cóndor. - Escuela de las Américas. - Intervencionismo de Estados Unidos en América Latina. - Doctrina Monroe. - United Fruit Company y el origen de la expresión "República bananera". - Henry Kissinger en general.

Flesh colors are uncanny, colors in the orange-green range can look like bodily fluids. Light colors like white and pink get visibly dirty faster. Pure blacks can also get dirty, plus it and greys feel dull and utilitarian. That leaves the red-blue range.

Purple has historically been a color associated with royalty, and thus, we associate it with luxury. So using a purple sex toy can make it feel, if not sophisticated per se, at least a little more indulgent.

post of the year 2025 i think

This is why nobody understands Marx or Lenin

i'm teaching undergrad biology courses right now and 1/3 is very very generous.

please stop saying that “if you xyz a fairy dies”. we’re belief dependent. you will literally make it true. last week one of you made an offhand remark about steven universe shipping and i had to go to hospital for four days. do you have any idea how humiliating that is

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought “why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff,” so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It’s alright if you can’t because apparently I fuckin couldn’t either

Cutting something out of your life because you think you don’t need it any more only to realize that it was in fact working as intended and preventing a problem that will return should you stop doing this is a good experiment to run periodically with something small like dandruff shampoo, lest you start to think it would be a good idea to do this with like let’s say public health and the social safety net and vaccines

I had a liver transplant when I was 14 and like six months later I was chatting with my surgeon and he said “there’s gonna come a time, probably when you’re a teenager, where you’re gonna think, ‘I feel great, why am I still taking all this medication? I haven’t needed it in years.’ and you’re gonna want to stop taking all this medication. Guess what’s gonna happen then? You’re gonna go into rejection and your liver is gonna start failing, and you’re gonna be dying again, and we’re gonna have to find you another liver. So don’t do that.” And I said “why the fuck would anyone do that?” and he said “people are stupid.”

every once in a while when I get annoyed by a pharmacy or don’t wanna get out of bed to do my drugs I think “ugh, this is dumb, why do I do this?” and that conversation slams into me like a truck and I remember that I am, in fact, stupid

Kris you rolled up to her BLUE and she didn't say a WORD

the verdict is IN

The reason Susie was staring into the mirror here wasn't because she was thinking some sappy friendship thing.

she was just trying to study the 30% of Kris's face she can actually see to prevent any future misidentifications
