social media is okay and i thinkwe sjould have more of it

you're so vain you probably think this vaguepost is about you

Times like these I remember that Malcolm X quote about healing and how it requires acknowledging the knife is there. Things like "this isn't who we are" and "this is un-American" and "what are we? [insert another country]??" reveal a deep seated denial of American history and state-sponsored domestic terror that I'm just not gonna entertain anymore from leftists over the age of twenty.

"If you stick a knife nine inches into my back and pull it out three, that is not progress. Even if you pull it all the way out, that is not progress. Progress is healing the wound, and they haven't even begun to pull out the knife. They won't even admit the knife is there."

visas and immigration control and borders are bullshit

Just a bunch of fraud Army boy wannabes pretending everyone who wants to move away from adversity is ontologically evil for not taking the proper procedure that we purposely make as draconic as possible

waste of money

Roger the Dodger continuing to be a source of memes in 2026.

You know technology literacy is dying because I saw this meme with 76k likes

F11 the full screen button? You’re scared of the full screen button? F10?? It opens the menu bar???

Computers are so scary what if I accidentally hit F12 in a steam game and it takes a screenshot. What if I press shift + F12 while in word and accidentally save my document 😖

If you had to learn what the F keys on your computer do through me reblogging this post, then I'm glad you did. Computer literacy is not a skill that gets taught anymore, and it is absolutely one that needs to be taught in order to be learned. Don't ever feel bad for not knowing something, but ☝️ don't ever stop learning learning about your environment, the tools you use, and especially the people around you

If you are in Microsoft Word and you use F3 and ctrl you add text to the spike, F3 and shift and ctrl pastes it. But the thing is you can put multiple things in the spike so you can use it to quickly rearrange a document.

When I was in high school we did an english unit on Octavia Butler and the teacher told us hey btw. You should call her "Butler" in your essays. Sometimes students call female writers by their first names unconsciously, but that's not acceptable. If you wouldnt call them William or Ernest you shouldn't call her Octavia.

And I was like cool whatever I was gonna call her Butler anyways. But that moment has stuck with me for my whole life because once you start seeing ppl calling women by their first names where men would be called by their last names you literally never stop seeing it.

I made a similar post on another site but we are in a moment where the way Indigenous peoples of the Americas are invisibilized on the scale of the US national stage is extremely dangerous and actively contributing to genocide that, though always present, is currently ramping up its blatant violence.

Consider: the way Trump and other pro-invasion officials have not given ANY acknowledgment of the fact that Greenland is overwhelmingly inhabited by Indigenous Kalaallit people. The continuing--and in Minneapolis, intensifying--harassment and detention of American Indian tribal citizens and descendants, especially unhoused people. The fact that a not-insignificant number of the immigrants targeted by ICE are members of Indigenous communities in Abya Yala, with monolingual speakers of Indigenous languages at a particular disadvantage in navigating the system. And while we can acknowledge the complexity of mestizaje and the problematics of some people asserting ALL Latin Americans are Indigenous, it is undeniable that the phenotype most associated with "illegal immigrants" is that of Indigenous Americans and their descendants.

And yet, almost none of the mainstream discussion of these things mentions Indigeneity. The US has been SO consistent at erasing Native people not just within its borders but also beyond them that there is virtually no discussion of this aspect of the current crisis outside of Indigenous communities. I am still formulating my thoughts about this but I do think it is a potentially really important thing to pay attention to, particularly as we see things like Trump retaliating against the Miccosukee Tribe for trying to halt the Everglades concentration camp, and the intra-community backlash against tribes that are funding or investing in ICE facilities.

(Relatedly, I think the fact that Minneapolis has been at the center of much of this stuff lately is particularly notable due to the Twin Cities having a stronger-than-average coalition of Black, Native, and immigrant community members working together.)

Prev is right. When I first heard Donald Trump talking about buying Greenland, I remembered that there was an independence movement that was getting traction. I don't think any deal with Trump is going to include sovereignty for Greenland. If anything, the US is trying to push the Greenland Independence movement backwards in order to secure their military facilities.

We can't keep ignoring the contradictions between Indigenous people and colonialism. This needs to color the way we analyze the supposedly "strange decisions" we see western leaders make, because at the end of the day, they're imperialists and they're doing everything they can to maintain their colonial hold on other people.
