Har har har. We were the first nation to end slavery after thousands of years. Everyone else followed our lead on that.
@Miriamm I'm also a slave of capitalism. USA shackles almost everyone on this planet.

Hey just your daily reminder that Jewish people have nothing to do with the Israeli government you dense antisemitic fucks.

@Miriamm The war has already started. Everyone drawing battle lines to harden boundaries expects the antisemitism cranked up to eleven just because. They prioritize their loyalties on toughness, even allies measure up to each other with harsh sentiments. Nobody wants the war at all. Except for assholes. @Miriamm not entirely true. The Jewish people have elected a right wing racist government. By the same logic, Germans had nothing to do with the Holocaust. This is NOT a comparing statement between Holocaust and Israeli governmentโs actions. Just saying there is accountability between a government and its people, especially in a democracy. Today marks the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre. During my time living in China, I once asked my colleagues about this event, but they vehemently claimed to have no knowledge of it. This is a photograph of the aftermath, it's illegal in China.

@Miriamm I was surprised to learn from some Chinese engineers that flew down to do some work with me thought that the Dali Lama was a terrorist and killed lots of people, and that they rescued Tibet his evil, oppressive dictatorship. Itโs incredible how much control you can have over people through the media. @Miriamm I believe that by trying to censor all mentions of the massacre, the CCP might have actually made it easier to find out about what happened that day. That colleague of yours most likely knew what happened, or at least had some idea of it, but wouldnโt say because people get killed for talking about it. @Miriamm PBS Frontline ran a spectacular documentary about the Tienanmen Uprising back in the mid-90s called Tienanmen: The Gate of Heavenly Peace. Some bootlegged copies are available online, but the producers only make it available for sale or rental. Watching it, though, was one of those live-changing events for me.

@Miriamm Corollary: โSure weโll give you money, but only after you give us a bunch more for some reason we made up.โ Golden snub-nosed monkeys inhabit the mountainous forests of central China, withstanding the coldest climate of all non-human primates #MadeMeSmile @Miriamm despite cute appearance, these little brats are known to punch tourists and steal their snacks.
North Dakota politicians just raised their meal reimbursement to $45 after rejecting a bill for free school lunches, which costs only $3 per meal. That means, for the price of one politician's lunch, you could feed 15 low-income kids โ socialism for me, but not for thee.

@Miriamm I think the thing that gets me most about this 'toon is that his EYES ARE CLOSED.

@Miriamm I only use Chrome, but compared to the sea of white and blue icons almost all my other apps are, it actually is the one app I never miss. I know this is more or less a non-starter, but I think anyone with the word "designer" in their job title should be prohibited from using a computer to do their job. |
@Miriamm The wholesome Pixar talking animal movie practically writes itself.
@Miriamm
This is how you do it. No discrimination.
@Miriamm "Hey, can I hangout with all of you?"
