"Don't speak ill of the dead"

For me, to "speak ill" doesn't refer to saying things that make them look bad -

It means to speak inaccurately or presumptively.

Dropped it in a couple of group chats, so why not here (verbatim):

Question: If you could eliminate one song from existence (don't pussy out and pick an artist or genre), what song would it be?

You won't be able to hide that you did this.
The bigger monsters will not shelter you. Plead with the uncaring.
They will make shoes of your pelt and curse you for their pace.
At sundown, the doors start locking, and the whispers of children learn to wear the weight of man's declarations.

What's the obsession about the declaration of martial law?

Don't wait for that shit, they're not going to ring a bell for us, they're just gonna do it just like they do everything else.

So, we dont know if a cop is a cop even if they have a badge, give you a number, name, etc.

Doesn't matter if they can cuff, gag, and toss you in the car before you can call the station.

Don't be surprised when most Americans start standing their ground.

wild how quickly higher education devolved into 'they pretend to write, and we pretend to read it'

in a system where education is broadly defined as job training the 'efficiencies' of capitalism are sure to infect and destroy any conflicting ideologies, AI has just supercharged the process

I feel for you. Where I live, this specific strain of infectious idiocy never stopped.

In one scenario, I asked, do you know the waste to litter ratio? This would get expensive quickly, even with a single student. What school where would pay for this?

Who cleans it? Think. Think.
He was angry.
one of my coworkers at fucking 7 am really said “in a school in my town there’s a student who identifies as a cat and the parents forced the school to put a littler box in the girls bathroom” i almost went BALLISTIC like actually how are you so fucking stupid to believe that

The overwhelming message I'm getting is that I deserve everything that happens to me because of where I live.
Cool.

No lande yn all of historye hath evir had merelye one language. Even the monolingual do not lyve wyth just one tongue. Take the lid off any language and see thousandes. Historye ys polyglot, culture ys a glorious babel of invention, and lyfe itself ys made out of translaciouns.

If you drive your squatted vehicle down the road, that should be the first thing you say after your name when introducing yourself. Save us all the hassle.
