The Tiger (from the poem by Nael, age 6)🐅

Analyzing the politics of a work that’s meant to be apolitical is actually a really interesting exercise because it asks you to critically examine what the creator considers to be “political” in the first place. Which ideas are just How Things Are, and which ones are Political, and how is that influenced by the creator’s beliefs?

my best tip for anyone trying to get back into reading is to remember that you can read books to avoid other responsibilities in ur life and it can become a vice if you play your cards right

i hate when men complain about women’s body hair, even like the fine hair on their backs. go fuck a shark if you wanna have sex with something hairless
I suddenly have the urge to grate cheese on a great whitewouldn’t that make the shark a
grate white
This post got weird
This post started with fucking hairless sharks. Weird wasn’t a destination so much as a jumping off point.
I’ve never been so surprised not to encounter the word “smooth” in a text post

Ist ja nett dass man die Sprache eurer Website auf Deutsch stellen kann, noch netter wäre es gewesen wenn irgendwer die deutsche Version nur so ganz kurz überflogen hätte, zB um abzuklären ob das Übersetzer-Programm auf das irgendein findiger mid level manager bestanden hat um die Personalkosten für jemanden mit Fremdsprachenkenntnissen einzusparen etwas brauchbares ausgespuckt hat.
Aber Quality Control ist was für Streber, die grammatikalisch korrekte Whatsapp-Nachrichten schreiben. Weswegen auch der Arbeitsschritt wegrationalisiert wurde. Mit dem Ergebnis, dass die Website einer großen Marketing-Agentur jetzt ein Dropdown-Menu hat, dass auf der deutschsprachigen Version eiskalt in “SPEISEKARTE” übersetzt wurde.
Peak webdesign, no complaints

no animal was harmed during the making of this video. not one. for the few minutes that we were shooting film, the guns of each hunter fell silent. the industrial bolt throwers observed a moment’s peace and the jaws of every predator hung softly open. no fish bit any hook and the bait worms held off on drowning only until the cameras stopped. the tails of ruminants ceased to flick just as their attendant flies, in unison, landed on their flanks to catch their tiny breaths. a spider instantly stopped winding silk around a wasp, patiently waiting for the caesura to end. a young veterinarian paused with the syringe in their hand. somewhere, a colicky baby stopped biting its mother’s nipple and nursed happily for the very first time. we’re sorry. we’re sorry it couldn’t have been longer. we didn’t know this would happen.
