Aversion to happiness, also called cherophobia is the extreme and irrational fear of gaiety or happiness because of the belief that when one becomes happy, a negative event will soon occur that will taint their happiness. Those who have this aren’t always sad, but they’re afraid to express happiness. Cherophobia may be caused by a past traumatic or negative experience. It may also be caused by an intense fear of disappointment.
This seems like a good place to share. If you want a bug spray that kills bugs but is safe to use in the house, put 91% rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle. It even kills stink bugs. It oxidizes quickly so it won't hurt you or pets. And to clean a toilet, use those dollar denture cleaning tablets. Drop them in before bed and it whitens it. Do you find these useful?
i’ve actually used that first tip before! you gotta really get em with a direct hit for it to be effective tho, but tbh store-bought bug spray is also often pretty ineffective, so tbh the alcohol is probably the best choice. the cleaning tablet one is new to me tho, thx!
After being hammered by hurricane Maria, the residents of the rural
Puerto Rican mountain town of Mariana got tired of waiting for the
bumbling, privatized, cash-starved power authority to reconnect them to
the grid, so the anarchist organizer Christine Nieves founded Proyecto
de Apoyo Mutuo, one of a dozen-odd cooperatives across the island to
create their own solar grid; by the time the The Puerto Rico Electric
Power Authority finally put in appearance, Mariana had had power for two
whole months.
After Maria, Puerto Rico suffered the second-longest blackout in world
history, ignored by both the federal government and the gutted, heavily
privatized local government. So community organizers like Nieves took
matters into their own hands.
Nieves’s group formed an alliance with the Katrina-inspired Mutual Aid
Disaster Relief, which fundraised to send gear to Puerto Rico.
The island-wide efforts are rare bright spots in a year-long crisis with
no end in sight. Naturally, they’ve faced police harassment and raids
looking for “antifa.”
On this day, 1 September 1911 during the Mexican revolution, peasant army leader Emiliano Zapata managed to escape from the military forces of Ambrosio Figueroa, the governor of Morelos. Troops, led by Federico Morales, arrived at Chinameca and stormed its front gate, but they failed to surround the property beforehand. So Zapata and many local residents who were fighting with him were able to slip out the back and escape through the sugarcane fields.
We recently released posters of this photograph of Zapata celebrating his 150th birthday to help fund our work: https://shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/homeware/emiliano-zapatahttps://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1201012873417194/?type=3
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
