Forgot to post this after work on Saturday, but my outfit of the day: vintage oversized Adam and the Ants tee, purple spiderweb Halloween leggings from Michael’s, thrifted purple & leopard print Converse. Been feeling poorly the last two days, hoping it’s allergies and not a cold. 😷 #ootd #fafafafafashionbeepbeep #everydayfashion #cheapasschic #comfyclothes #adamandtheants #antsinvasion #antmusicforsexpeople #vintage #oversizedtee #leggings #everydayishalloween #spiderwebs #purple #thriftscore #converse #leopardprintisaneutral #punkrockgirl #casualpunk #over45style #almost50 #agingdisgracefully #mystyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CFIx9K1Drz6/?igshid=qpj76iulzbjj
Socialism is indeed riding a wave of momentum when more Texans than Californians view it favorably.
Socialist Alternative has called for the formation of a new left
party with “a clear socialist program and a tested Marxist leadership.” The Call,
a publication run by Bread and Roses, a caucus of Marxist organizers,
has declared, echoing Karl Marx, that American workers need “a mass
working class party.” The Sunrise Movement, a youth-led leftist climate
group, has cautioned that a workers’ party should not be an “immediate”
goal. But those on the far left agree that a workers’ party is “a
crucial strategic goal for the socialist movement.”
These radicals clearly see themselves as a revolutionary vanguard
like the Bolsheviks of 1917, prepared to strike when the moment is ripe
to bring down a weakened political and economic structure. Although they
are comparatively few—DSA has a membership of about 70,000—they are
committed. They have helped to elect a number of national and local
candidates. According to the polls, the mood of the country is favorable
to radical solutions such as free education, free health care, and the
Green New Deal, which would eliminate oil, coal, and natural gas as
energy sources.
You love to see it, folks
If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.
I didn’t know Mr. T pityed fool’s that weren’t woke, but that’s awesome. #respect
“I think about my father being called ‘boy’, my uncle being called ‘boy’, my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called ‘boy’. So I questioned myself:“What does a black man have to do before he’s given the respect as a man?” So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T so the first word out of everybody’s mouth is “Mr.” That’s a sign of respect that my father didn’t get, that my brother didn’t get, that my mother didn’t get.“
-Mr. T on the subject of his name
I had no idea he put this much thought into this wow
I wonder why we dont hear about this…
Mr. T’s raw power vaporizing the guy in the last gif
Hey all, a little Social Media PSA if you have the Facebook App on your phone.
With the last update, Facebook began tracking something called ‘off-Facebook Activity’ which keeps up with all apps and browsing you do off of Facebook and collects that information with the purpose of targeting ads… which means they’re selling it to ad agencies. This includes access to any banking apps on your phone and your spending habits.
Not only is this a major breech of privacy that Facebook didn’t have to tell us about when they updated the app, it’s, of course, automatically turned on.
To turn it off, go into your Facebook app, pull up the menu from the main screen [the button with the three horizontal lines] scroll down to security and privacy, find ‘Off-Facebook Activity’ and hit the button that lets you manage your history to see all the apps it’s been collecting from. From there, you can clear the information it’s already collected, and there will be a button regarding ‘Future activity’ where you can turn the ‘feature’ off, at which point Facebook with give you an ‘ARE YOU SURE YOU DON’T WANT US COLLECTING YOUR INFORMATION TO SELL YOU THINGS???’ screen. Yes, yes you are sure. Because this is disgusting.
Facebook made this super hard to find, so I’ve written up instructions for how I got through it (on my app - I don’t know if there are other versions where it’s different):
From Facebook, go to the Menu by clicking on the three horizontal lines on the top right of the screen.
Scroll down to the bottom and select the Settings & Privacy drop-down menu.
Then select Settings (the first option under the drop-down).
This will take you to a screen showing multiple headers with lists of links under them
Scroll down to Your Facebook Information and select Off-Facebook Activity.
The next page has a short explanation of Off-Facebook Activity. Click Manage Your Off-Facebook Activity after the What You Can Do header.
This will take you to a screen with an option to Clear History (which I recommend). To actually turn off this feature, you will have to click the three dots at the top right of the screen and select the Manage Future Activity option that pops up.
This will take you to a page explaining in more detail what they’re doing. Select the Manage Future Activity at the bottom of the page.
THEN you can finally select the toggle to turn off Future Off-Facebook Activity.
If it’s glowing blue with the circle on the right side, it’s active, and if it’s gray with the circle on the left side, it’s off.
Just went and checked this out and yikes on a stick
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.
