this is a good time to remind people that susan g komen is an awful breast cancer research foundation and you’d be better off donating to places like the breast cancer research foundation instead
It’s almost October, which these monsters have deemed their month, so please keep this in mind, too. Thanks.
You deserve the worst type of karma if you steal from innocent, hard working people
the fact that there’s a symbol that specifically means, vulnerable female easily cornered, which probably means they plan to commit sexual assault as well as burglary, is especially disgusting.
This one’s a rich tech bro. The numbers I saw said maybe 17% of the population is in favor and yet, here we are, wasting tax payer dollars on this fucking BS.
Every year, teachers spend on average $500 on their classroom of their own money. I know many teachers who spend considerably more. Each year, I request links to wish lists from the teachers on Tumblr to share; we call it Teachmas. It is wonderful to have support from all over as we prepare for the new school year. Please consider purchasing an item, if money is tight, reblogs also help! Thank you so much!
The RNC sent me a notice of official census material that was actually a fundraiser for the republican candidates running in the midterms. The paperwork was presented as being an official document required to be filled out by law, but it was patently false. This is corruption. This is meant to deceive people into giving data and money to a political party under the guise of nonpartisan census data. This undermines trust in the census, local government, and the democratic process. This is beyond disgusting, and I’m mailing back the form to tell the RNC how I really feel about their bullshit.
Okay, so apparently Twitter bots from Russia (or Republicans) are tweeting some more propaganda.
#NoMenMidterms and #HERstory hashtags are being pushed by obvious troll accounts.
Notice the Republican trope of using the word “Democrat” when referring to the Democratic Party (instead of Democrats with an “s” on the end). And then there’s the conservative fixation on George Soros, and LOL, “the Matriarchy”. Also, the notable usage of weaponized identity politics. (Do I even need to address the comic sans font?)
And most of the accounts pushing these hashtags have fewer than 100 followers, and are recently created (but older accounts may have been literal “sleeper” accounts).
So anyway, this is where we’re at right now. GOP bots, Russian bots and “sup guy find more here” bots spreading like crazy on social media. Please be wary of the media you consume. Some of it is propaganda.
This may have started out as a “joke” on 4Chan, but it’s only gonna get worse (and more sophisticated and harder to detect) as we get closer to November.
As someone that has grown up surrounded by beaches and done surf life saving, I know how the sea works. Lots of people dont. Every summer multiple tourists die here because they don’t respect the sea, if you’re going to the coast, here’s a thing I saw on Facebook.
wow.
I grew up by the ocean and learnt basic lifesaver shit alongside it so I CANNOT stress enough the importance of knowing how to avoid and escape a rip
