  • There's tons of horny animal gods through history. I mean, just look at Pan with his erections.

    Could it be that furries are just reviving the old ways?

  • Most of the trans people I know IRL are anarchists, so it's not like they're hanging their hopes on the dems.

    Like, it's important to remember that anti-communism is just negative. It doesn't imply anything about their politics besides that they're anti-communist.

  • Oatmeal, raisins and coffee? Are you binging it on the toilet?

  • It's so funny to me when a job gets back to you after you've been working for a more responsible employer for 3 months. Like, what do you expect to happen? I'm already on the health plan.

  • This goes deep. Universities will teach every axis of oppression except for class. When they do teach class, it's as a symbolically coded form of difference rather than a relationship to production. They're getting justice oriented people to think about everything but class so they won't organize along class lines.

  • Legit. I really want to visit Switzerland, hundreds of dense small towns connected by train is my ideal. Aside from the liberalism, it seems like a really nice place to be.

  • This isn't even an anticapitalist text dump on my part, just basic US history and sociology. If you're drawing anti capitalist conclusions from it, that's on you.

  • I once botched an alpine start by getting my buddy's truck stuck in the snow, took two hours to dig it out and once we were on our way, the sun was rising.

    I did not climb the south sister that day.

  • Puffballs that are past their prime to eat sometimes brown on the inside too, so if there's any discoloration, don't fuck with it.

  • Night hiking is fun and wonderful on well maintained trails if you have food, water, light and warmth.

    Ask me about the time I fucked myself by not having those things.

  • The opposit of love isn't hate, it's indifference

  • The New People's Army, a socialist guerilla force in the Phillipines fighting against the Marcos-Duterte regime and for democracy, land reform, indigenous sovereignty, gay rights and worker control of the economy.

  • It's both. Disney is a strong brand and going after it feels like an attack to people with strong positive associations. DeSantis lost the Disney adult vote and that's got to be whole portions of a percent of his base.

  • Well, what AMLO did sounds borderline fascist. Maybe the Klan is a necessary evil? We'd better flood Mexico with weapons and then refuse to negotiate a surrender and hope that improves the situation.

  • It's worth looking at how that environment is produced too. There's a need for cheap labor in agriculture, laundry, hospitality and textile industries that dovetails well with the US's history of anti-mexican racism (grounded in the need to dehumanizing indigenous people to steal their land as well as the US-Mexico war).

    By controlling people's movement through the border regime, we can make them willing to take sub-minimum wage jobs, while also keeping Mexico poor through lopsided trade agreements like NAFTA and low level insurgency achieved by escalating the drug war and flooding the country with weapons.

    In this context of US oppression of Mexicans, it becomes necessary to dehumanize them to justify the violence. This is where fox news comes in. Hell, even CNN plays a role by creating categories of migrants some good and some bad, and playing them against each other while justifying border control (think about the rhetoric about dreamers vs drug smugglers).

    To change this environment, we either need to undercut this propaganda by organizing white and brown workers together, or either take back control of media from big business or make our own media with similar reach.

  • The holes on the inside say bugs to me. Puffballs are usually white. I know it's small, but the shell still looks too big, should be eggshell thin.

    Imo, there are safer and tastier mushrooms out there. Like a king bolete or an oyster mushroom.

  • It's too bug-eaten to tell if it's all-white on the inside. I would avoid it because you can't really sight-ID it.

    Also the shell around the outside is too thick (should be eggshell thin) imo there's a good chance it's an Earthball (also poisonous, but not destroying angel poisonous).

    Get Mike Beuge's dichotomous key, it'll really help you not die.

  • And the Iowa caucus was only last week. Crazy.

  • On further read, you guys kind of feel at the very least like the left-wing equivalent of somethingawful.com.

    Oh my God that's genuinely so sweet

  • We were a lifeboat for /r/chapotraphouse since it's been banned. We were running a proprietary version of lemmy for most of that time and only joined the main fork a month ago.
