When people graffiti on buildings: Yes! Ha ha! Fuck yes!
When people graffiti on rockfaces and cliffsides on hiking trails: What the absolute fuck.
It's not punk to poison the soil, dude.
Apparently there used to be a heirarchy of graffiti: tag < piece < mural < memorial. And doing one lower in heirarchy over a higher one was a huge insult. Like it was a specific unwritten rule thing

any Reagan or thatcher memorial is exempt to the rule.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
It seems to follow the same rule as satire: Punching up vs. Punching down.
Graffiti on the side of a building is using your voice against those who would silence you. A memorial on the side of one of those buildings helps ensure the legacy of someone who would otherwise be forgotten (Which is why a memorial to Reagan or Thatcher is exempt from the rule).
But Graffiti on a rock alongside a hiking trail is one person imposing their presence and power on a space meant for everyone.
Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me
my number one skill is being sooo cute and my number two skill is the ancient curse
thank you doraemon <333

Your honor in my defense I am simply a little rascal
Typical 690's
That's just an average Tuesday in Ireland
I hate the “open floor plan” that everyone is obsessed with in houses now. I want nooks and crannies and bizarre floor plans. I don’t need to be able to see what someone is doing on the other side of the house. I want places to hide and lurk and dwell in the shadows. I am the beast who awaits in the labyrinth
I think adults need summer vacation. Like let's just close down all our jobs for three months and play outside. Please. I'm so tired.
Love to see this post getting notes again. None of us are ok.
i may just be french but do americans really not get paid summer vacations? you don't go to the beach with your kids? "There is no federal or state statutory minimum paid vacation or paid public holidays" am i reading this right? like i'm not trying to rub anyone's face in it but you're just stuck in the rat race year-round until you're old and that's normal and accepted??? in the 21st century???
Haha imagine that haha imagine being so needy haha not me no haha ha ha ha haha hahahha ha ha
