it is actually SO twisted that peter parker comes from a poor working class family, spent his entire life fighting for the little guy for no financial gain, whose major film villains are dirty capitalists who don’t care about who they hurt, who takes his power as a responsibility…. and marvel took one look at him and said “yah he’s besties with a billionaire whose family had generational wealth from war profiteering and all the villains will be working class”
Enough things have happened. No more things for a while. Thank you.

it never ceases to amaze me how ppl get life handed to them wrapped up in a pretty pink bow, and then convince themselves that they paid for it with sweat and blood
I don’t want to end Amazon, because it provides an incredibly useful service to the disabled community, the elderly, and those who simply don’t have time to go shopping due to working three jobs and the like. There currently isn’t a major alternative on the market that is the same level of cheap and accessible.
What I do want to do is enforce some goddamn antitrust laws on major web-based companies like Amazon and Google and Facebook, and roll back their attempts at monopolizing entire industries, and make them pay their lowest-rung workers a fair wage and stop running their warehouses like a scene from a dystopian nightmare.
Reality is stranger than fiction
that’s some Nazi shit right there.
Thought this was fake or a misunderstanding but
They decided to focus on this guy’s reaction to fame in the article at the end and not that people apparently aren’t allowed to be critical of anything Trump says….. somehow I’m not surprised?

I say surprising because there’s been zero hype for TOG, only heard of it on tumblr. It popped up on my Netflix recommendations so I shrugged, gave it a try. So happy I did!
Betsy DeVos - “I will personally sacrifice 14,000 children for capitalism”
Remember when this all started and people were like, they just don’t care because it’s mostly old people. If children were dying, they’d do something.
Capitalism is amoral, insatiable and indiscriminate. Fourteen thousand children is no more moving to a psychopathic system than is one hundred thousand adults. There is literally no one that is too precious to be sacrificed to profit.
Please release me; I am tired. Edit: My friend made it better:
I cannot stress this enough: be careful who you give dueling scars to, and where those scars are located.
You might think you’re slashing them across the face to “teach them a lesson” or “put them in their place” or even “to give them something to remember you by”, but in practice all you’re doing is giving them a backstory, raising their sex appeal, and setting them on the path of revenge.
If you want them to come back five, ten, fifteen years from now, then by all means, be my guest. Give them the sexiest scar you possibly can. But they will be more determined and more talented than you and they will kick your ass and probably kill you. Even if they’re not objectively “better at dueling” than you are, and you initially seem to have the upper hand, they have the blessing of plot behind them and that character arc is about to come crashing down on top of your head.
If you’re going to scar them, do it in some uncool and embarrassing place. The belly, maybe, if you’re careful. Across the nipple is pushing it. A slash across the ass isn’t particularly noble or sportsmanly of you but it doesn’t really increase your opponent’s cool factor unless you’re in a farcical comedy. Scar them somewhere if you must but do NOT help them accessorize their tragic backstory.
i knew as soon as i read the first sentence where this post was going and it did NOT dissapoint.
is this writing advice or life tips I'm confused
this is a life hack because ever since home ec was cut from school curriculums people are growing up without practical life skills
