Thought I'd make a thread of my free-to-use political art. If you want an SVG for stenciling or stickers, or something higher res, DM or reply and I'll put it on Limewire or something. More to come

They told me how they they didn't want Jewish crimes recorded as German crime so they set up the publication to ensure accuracy to the Volksgemeinschaft."

I am increasingly of the opinion that people who change menus and look and feel of computer software just so that you know it's a new version should be personally forced to play tech support to my mother for five months.

And like... this is the shit that never gets accounted for in tenure applications for women. How many times you were trying to have men treat you as colleagues with ideas and they were not serious about anything except trying to fuck your body.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

Legal citizenship should be virtually effortless to obtain and near instantaneous to process, and should be paired with sweeping grants of asylum.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I got second-degree burns on my already injured hand back in 2016 trying to serve hot coffee to a customer who was micromanaging how I put the lid on. Those workers deserve a fair contract.
Once, when I was a barista out of high school, someone ordered an “extra hot” latte, and when I told her the highest I could go she went off on me for 10 mins. When eventually I made it as hot as I could without getting fired, she tried to pour it on my head.
Give them a fair contract, you cowards.
