being lactose intolerant but obsessed with dairy products
okay seriously why does EVERY lactose intolerant person just. Eat/Drink dairy even when y’all KNOW it’s gonna hurt. The level of nihilism that lactose intolerant people have achieved is insanely chaotic and I don’t know what to do.
The perfect symbol for the trump administration.Oh, Lord…
My 1st thought when I saw this was, T-rump’s staff must really hate him. Not one of those people stopped that from happening. President Obama’s staff would have risked life and limb to keep the President from being embarrassed like that.
I’m mostly reblogging this bc I know it being spread will bother him to no end.
I think many leftists have a specific eureka moment where they come to realize a crucial fact about a possible post-capitalist world:
While we are trained from childhood on to just assume that more jobs must be good because that means more people are working and therefore eating, we rarely get a point to question WHY we insist on creating systems where we must work any job in order to subsist, regardless of how necessary they are. Like….if workers and communities had democratic management over economic utilities and resources, you could create something where people just get a livable floor regardless, and from there you can focus the economy on literally meeting those needs; from there, why would anyone NEED to work at some desk job in a bureaucratic mess or a Cheetos factory that produces shit food that specifically capitalists can profit from? This doesn’t presuppose a world without entertainment and art and theme parks and passion; it just presupposes that we remove those things from an economic framework that insists we MUST do them for our bread. If our actual JOBS were cut down to just what we NEEDED TO CREATE for a functioning society (essential foods, buildings, transportation, infrastructure, healthcare, education, etc.), then the “side things” that make life interesting can be born from interest rather than necessity. Taking it a step further, automation has the power to liberate us from a plethora of those essential jobs, and with democratic control over the means of production you could actually utilize it for human flourishing rather than capitalist profit. People wouldn’t have to worry about machines taking their jobs – indeed, they’d probably WANT a machine to take their job. That means more time for leisure, family, friends, art, and self-actualization.
