Anyone else constantly forget that Luis Suarez played for Atletico Madrid or just me
i got it backwards, sometimes i think he played more than he actually did idk
There are more and more cases of gringos ending homeless in México city. The police recently caught a woman from the US threatening people with a knife and rocks.
Is this stuff also common in other countries within the global south?
found this on publishers for palestine

DELUGE Gaza and Israel from Crisis to Cataclysm
what do you think about philosophy tube?
I think she probably leans more demsoc than I’d like but she’s otherwise pretty good.
I don’t think I am in a doomer fase but I do feel pessimistic I guess.
There’s just a large discrepancy between my life passions and constantly being politically active. I don’t like politics. I don’t like being politically active. I like gardening, nature, bird watching, working out, etc. Instead I find myself trying to convince people we should not let some few rich losers destroy our world.
Just ranting I guess but I often find myself asking what I’m doing with my life these days.
Feel the same, would like to just go party, listen to music, hike and play sports and board games but all this political stuff I do mostly because I feel the need to do something
I struggle with a similar thing. Its hard. I am just a little ape who wants to have fun why do i have to be worried about other dumb apes destroying the entire world? Its like we are the constant victims of some horrible crime that most people act as if they don’t see.
Best to take frequent breaks.
Force yourself. Forcing yourself is what self-care is all about. I know people laugh off self-care, but you have to force yourself. Self-care involves giving yourself the benefit of doubt.
Gotta find balance comrade. Don’t feel guilty for it. One person only has so much capacity for this work. Take breaks and try to find enjoyment in life where you can. We’ve all been there.
I hope you all have a nice week :D
You too 🫡

Right back at you comrade! :D
Me apparently, as inferred by the wet spot on my pillow. In my defence, I dreamt it was an ice cream.

You always post the best photos! Just beautiful every time!
I beat fever today and I’m waiting for diarrhea to be cleared.
Yikes, bad combination
Hope you feel better soon
What a lovely photo of uncle Stalin.
The whole Luigi trial is going to be so fucking funny it’s unbelievable. Literally parading him around with an army of police men AND the NYC mayor lmao. Not even trying to portray this as a fair trial. He’s going to be made an example of so that us poor people know where we stand.
If I were the pig in charge and I found the real shooter I’d just have him followed somewhere with few witnesses, have an “officer involved shooting” that doesn’t mention the CEO thing at all. Then I’d arrange a patsy that I could control, have him really ham it up and look “evil.”
My mom no-joke says that she is scared of the “Venezuelan gangs” that she reads and hears about all the time on the news. She says that she even gets scared whenever she hears a noise at night because of this. I even try to tell her that the media is trying to get her scared by blasting this stuff and that undocumented immigrants actually commit less crimes on average. Whatever I say, it all goes over her head.
The media has successfully tricked her into being scared of the evil scary brown people. It’s both very funny and very sad at the same time.
Few days ago my mom reposted a innocent looking christmas post… from a anti-gay christo-fascist NGO. The founder was a literal klan member, and a few years ago they had to fire one of their execs who was a child molester.
Like she’s my mom and I love her but I wouldn’t get in the way if she was hauled off to a reeducation gulag.
I got a dentist appointment this morning 😔
wishing you the best of teeth
