someone: so what do you think is the solution to homelessness?
me, socialist:

Let homeless people occupy peopleless homes, build houses for use rather than exchange, 3D print comfortable houses in a day, convert corporate skyscrapers into housing and commercial malls into publicly-accessible community centers with living commons and entertainment

When you say it to people and they break

“But the money? … we can’t just? But, Money? We can’t just… help… people? Can we? The Money. We can’t just help people? Like that? We can’t just? Money?”

The same people who balk at the idea of giving homeless people free housing and giving everyone healthcare are the same people who don’t bat an eye at spending trillions on the military and billions on a racist wall

one particularly sinister way that cop shows use propaganda is portraying defense lawyers as sleazy, opportunistic scumbags for committing the heinous sin of making sure their clients’ rights aren’t trampled over

cop shows are designed to make you hate your own rights and perpetuate the disgusting idea that only the guilty would try to defend themselves

“she-ra is queerbaiting” oh ladies we are Not doing this today

i havent seen a single scene from this show but it takes 1 second of critical thinking to know that a lesbian creator dancing around censorship & having gay subtext is astronomically different from straight creators dangling around gay rep like a donkey with a carrot and stick

i don't really understand why you would be pro-zoo. like i understand nature reserves and sanctuaries where people can observe from afar, but it doesn't seem right to me when they're locked up in generally small confined areas for people to watch them do nothing all day. idk maybe i'm getting this wrong, and i still really respect you, i just don't understand this. like i interned at a zoo and felt uncomfortable with how small their living areas were and how they had no stimulation

Zoos don’t look like this anymore.

They look like this:

Good zoos do not keep their animals in “tiny spaces” with no enrichment.  I’m not pro-roadside zoo.  I’m pro-accredited zoo.  Zoos are incredibly important for conservation and education.

There should be way more pictures of modern zoos so i just add some more

Seriously zoos do so much important conservation work as well I hate when people shit all over zoos as if the animals are locked up and not looked after

The SF Zoo has two sea lions. Now, if you know SF, you know that sea lions are a Thing. They’re all over Pier 39 and various other beaches in N California. In fact, the zoo is near the ocean, so there are sea lions not 200 yards from the zoo entrance. So having sea lions in the zoo seems sort of superfluous.

Except the sea lions are blind. One was found as an adult after suffering a gun shot wound to the face that destroyed his eyes. The other was found as an adolescent, weak and starving because it had been blinded and unable to hunt. So they were rescued and introduced and the zoo built them a nice pool where they can swim and sunbathe and people toss them fish. It’s not the biggest exhibit, or the fanciest. But it’s a home for them, where they’re safe and well fed. Sea lions aren’t the most romantic of animals, but they’re a part of SF culture and a lot of us have a soft spot for the loud, bulbous things. And because of zoos, these two get to live long, happy lives.

Whenever anyone complains about zoos, I think about Silent Knight and Henry.

I think it’s St. Louis zoo that is saving big cats in Africa. Scientists couldn’t figure out what was killing off the local lion population. They were dying off from Canine Distemper. The local unvaccinated dogs of the towns would spread the disease to other animals or have it themselves. When the lions ate the infected animals they would catch it as well. You know what that Zoo is doing to stop this disease? They are going over to those towns and vaccinating the dogs for free. The community loves it and people from other villages comes for miles to get their dogs vaccinated as well.

They also do work with camel populations because the local human population use the camels for food sources the zoos help monitor the camels health.

Another zoo, I want to say it’s the Oregon zoo but don’t quote me on that, is helping female inmates. The zoo works with the female prisons by encouraging the inmates to assist in the breeding and raising of endangered species of butterflies. They plant the specific plants that the butterflies and catapillars need, raise them, and release them. These inmates get noted in any scientific journals that get published. They are giving these inmates a sense of accomplishment and validation.

Zoos not only save species but bring together and assist communities in an effort to save the environment. Zoos, good zoos, are essential to the future and I will fight anyone who tries to say otherwise.

PS you don’t see PETA doing any of this.

outta all the things to become controversial in my lifetime i feel like vaccination is both the dumbest and most unexpected one???

it was like. we solved a real BIG problem and managed to prevent a lot of folks from getting sick or even dying and then some schmuck (who by the way, literally got his medical license taken away for the Shit he pulled) was like “uhhhhh actually no. this is bad actually” with NO evidence and people listened????? what the hell

Worse, it was evidence he literally fabricated for his own financial gain by performing painful and intrusive experiments on unsedated disabled children without their consent! Hence both the license revocation, and the full revocation of his paper in 2010! This is all trivially easy to look up, read about and verify! And yet, as many as 1 in 4 parents in the US still believe that vaccines cause autism and that therefore they should be avoided because apparently having an autistic child is worse than having a dead one. What the fuck is happening

Also:

*make literal websites that are nothing but a page with numbers counting down the years, months, weeks, days, hours, seconds, until an actress/model/singer turns 18…*

*…then instantly start making vile, graphic comments detailing all the sexual things they want to do to her, as if they weren’t saying those things already*

*vehemently defend men like Drake for grooming and preying on underage girls*

*treat dating older women as a fetish/weird kink/taboo, but find it completely normal when grown ass men date girls over ten years younger than them*

*call underage girls “jailbait” to deflect all blame off men onto the girls*

*desperately defend themselves by insisting men have evolved to be biologically attracted to young, hairless women because youth=fertility, despite the fact that only prepubescent girls are hairless, meaning hairless=not yet capable of becoming pregnant. Not to mention the fact that one of the leading causes of death (maybe THE leading cause of death, though I can’t remember the specifics) of girls age 15-19 is childbirth, meaning young girls are clearly NOT meant to have children*

*refuse to tell their friends that they’re being predatory to underage girls yet scream at any woman who’ll listen that “nOt AlL mEn ArE lIkE tHaT!!!¡!¡¡!!¡!”*

Also: limiting the clothing options girls can wear, especially to school, because “you can’t be prancing around in shorts and a tank top around us/men, what will we/they think of you?” (Because older women are complicit in this kind of shaming of younger girls as well)

People want to insist we don’t live in a pedophile culture, but refuse to acknowledge how problematic dress codes are because they are created to shame girls, especially those during puberty who are developing breasts and hips, for wearing comfortable clothes lest they incite lustful feelings in men because they aren’t covered from head to toe….but men shouldn’t be feeling lust towards underage girls period because underage girls should never be sexualitized and if you do you should be rightfully labeled A GODDAMN PEDOPHILE.

I rest my case.

This whole “let’s make projects with black women falling in love with white men who are in a position of power that is detrimental and insulting to their very existence” needs to end. Now.

Yo. They synopsis for Neo Ned is fucking WILD. 

Like most kids, Ned idolized his father and dreamed of following in his footsteps. Unfortunately, his father was a two-bit crook who spent most of his life in jail. Without a family of his own, Ned falls in with the Aryan Brotherhood. Soon after, Ned is placed in a mental hospital where he is mesmerized by a young black girl who believes Adolf Hitler was reincarnated in her. What follows is a gritty character study and poignant love story of two people brought together by a seemingly impossible connection. As a result of that connection, they both find that there is more to a person than what is on the surface. IMDB

The father of a South Carolina girl who died after a fight in her classroom last week made a public plea Monday for answers about what happened to his daughter.

Ten-year-old Raniya Wright died Wednesday, two days after she was injured when a fight broke out at Forest Hills Elementary School in Walterboro – a town of 5,100 people about an hour’s drive west of Charleston.

A week after the fatal injuries, authorities still haven’t told Raniya’s father exactly what happened or what kind of injuries the fifth-grader suffered.

“I’m here today looking for justice for my daughter,” Jermaine Van Dyke told reporters at a news conference Monday. “I want just to find out what happened, how it happened, and who was involved.”  

What we know about the fight and Raniya’s injuries

Raniya suffered serious injuries when a fight broke out March 25 in her classroom, school officials said. It’s not clear what led to the confrontation.

Officials said they stopped the fight, and Raniya was taken to the school nurse’s station. According to a sheriff’s office incident report, Raniya was unconscious when paramedics arrived and they took her to a nearby hospital. Later she was airlifted to the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, where she died Wednesday.

Colleton County Sheriff’s Office said two fifth-grade students were involved in the fight, which authorities described as a “physical altercation” that did not involve weapons.

Authorities have not said exactly how Raniya was injured, or what kind of injuries she suffered.

Medical University of South Carolina performed Raniya’s autopsy on Friday, but results will not be released for several weeks, said the sheriff’s office and Duffie Stone, the solicitor for the 14th Judicial Circuit in South Carolina.

There have been no arrests, and authorities have not filed any criminal charges in connection with Raniya’s death, the sheriff’s office said. Stone said it was premature to assume there will be any criminal charges filed.

What the school district has said

The Colleton County School Board made its first comments about Raniya’s death after a special meeting Thursday to discuss the incident, CNN affiliate WCSC reported.

“Our board and district have received multiple requests for information,” School Board Chairman Tim Mabry said in a prepared statement, according to WCSC.

“Due to the ongoing investigation and student privacy laws, we cannot share specific details at this time.”

The lack of information angered attendees at the news conference and Raniya’s family.

“We’ve been extremely disappointed,” said Mark Peper, an attorney for Raniya’s father.

“We’ve made multiple attempts to contact both law enforcement and the school district. We heard late Friday evening from the attorney for the school district that was brought on board. Unfortunately, he didn’t have many answers.”

Not good enough, NOT acceptable. A child is dead, what happened? Someone has the answer to this poor father’s questions. They TOO should be charged if a cover-up is what’s going on here.

Yeah I would tear the city apart
