I feel like I’ve seen these monstrosities in traffic before lol

Bandcamp is what my bands like to use. They often have events (Bandcamp Fridays) where 100% of purchases go to the artists. Some bands also make decent money off merch sales from their own storefronts

I grew up in the South. It is considered extremely racist, but you’ll hear any number of excuses that it represents a culture or “heritage” that doesn’t sound explicitly racist. However, that heritage can only exist through oppression

It reminds poverty class white people of a time when people like them had more status than others. And you can count on them wanting to take that antebellum status back from the people they feel they need to step on

I only recognize the top left.

My mother incessantly played Fiddler on the Roof (1971) during holiday season. No one in my family is Jewish, so I’m not sure why she felt that was a good choice for holiday cheer. Anyway, I hate that movie (and musicals in general), but still hear “If I were a rich man” and “Tradition” in my head throughout December

As a trekkie, I’m extra offended that he’s tainting the name USS Defiant

Since day one, we have stood with the artist community against piracy, and we are actively working with our industry partners to protect creators and defend their rights.

Lmao. They protect and defend artist rights so hard they they’ve refused to pay a fair compensation, and have taken it further by promoting AI artists over actual artists. This statement is almost comical after it was reported that they’ve had copy cats to replace King Glizard and the Lizard Wizard when they pulled their albums from Spotify

While most of the samples passed, the findings showed that one version of bupropion and one version of metoprolol, dispensed at least tens of thousands of times in 2024 alone, had irregularities that experts say could compromise their effectiveness.

They found some pills dissolved slower, reducing the amount of medication available in the body. These were from Indian factories that previously failed quality testing but have since been allowed to sell to the US again.

Edit: propublica only tested three medications from 11 people. It’s a very small sample size, but considering the historical quality control issues its worth a larger analysis

Bottom right is my dream. Give me a plot of wilderness to enjoy and I won’t need anything else from life

The FDA is happy to regulate clothing, but has zero interest in regulating supplements. For the record, there’s plenty of evidence of these unregulated supplements causing actual illness and harm.

Her husband is a convicted rapist, and her brother is in prison for child rape. She loudly defended both of them, so I imagine she feels right at home with this admin

Does this amplify the things spoken to you or just audio you are listening to? I have a broader sensory processing disorder, and I’ve really become picky about the types of situations I’ll go into because it takes such a huge toll. I think it would probably be easier to live with if I didn’t have to concentrate so hard on separating conversations from ambient noise

Edited to remove quote, because they were banned

Wow, sexist, racist and Islamophobic all at once.

There are several women just in this thread telling you that being objectified while trying to compete in a sport is a problem. No one is saying that people can’t dress sexy when they want to, we’re saying it’s a problem when it’s forced on us and expected of us to comply

There are downsides. Not all women are beautiful, and quite a lot of us lose our beauty as we age. I can tell you first hand that aging has resulted in a significant change in how people treat me, and that alone is enough to cause social anxiety

Also, the expectation that we be beautiful or maintain our figures is oppressive as fuck. Think about how hard life is just trying to work and pay bills, then add the time and financial cost for beauty routines and gym. Some people get around that by making those two things their hobbies, but that isn’t gong to work for most people

I still sing this song when I’m torturing myself with shoe shopping lol

I can’t believe the other guy doesn’t even ponder his orb

I’ve never done that personally, but if you’re painting with acrylic and want to minimize the appearance of brush strokes then it can be done. I’d never do that with oil paint.

This is kind of funny because I just made apple cider, and I saved the apples to make apple butter. The recipe I ended up using calls for a splash of apple cider vinegar, and it’s much better with that addition lol

I’m agender, but my body is very clearly gendered

I agree that it’s annoying that people assume someone’s gender, but we also have to give people some grace. Most humans fit into one of two boxes, and the other boxes are on a shelf that is slightly out of reach and easily forgotten

I might be lucky in this, but people usually get the idea that I’m not cis if I ask for their pronouns while we’re in the introductory phase
