I found out after checking my savings in a few months. Went to buy surplus grain from Sawhill farms and needed to withdraw 1000. thought ATM was broke until I check the Chase app and find a lousy 300 dollars left. I called her and just spoke for a bit before bringing it up and when I did she paused and just went “oh” and hung up. I got home she was already in bed and I ended up getting high and sleeping on the futon again. Next morn she tells me that I have to think about paying off some debt. Debt? I brought up the missing money and that’s when she broke down and told me she had been watching eBay live and buying a bunch of shit we don’t need. I checked out eBay life and shits bleak. It uses the short form media format so you can just swipe through live auctions. She got addicted to spending but using klarna because she thought it would cost less. Turns out I’m over 9000 in debt. There’s no way to return some of this shit. I think I’m going to pay it off but then have a serious discussion about the relationship because I don’t think I can be with someone who is financially unstable. But I love her and she helped me out when I was in a toxic relationship.

"I have spent 6 years reflecting on the state of European society and I still can't think of a single way they act that is not inhuman and I generally think this can only be the case as long as you stick to your distinctions of 'mine' and 'thine.' I affirm that what you call 'money is the devil of devils, the tyrant of the French, the source of all evils, the bane of souls and slaughterhouse of the living. To imagine one can live in the country of money and preserve one's soul is like imagining one can preserve one's life at the bottom of a lake. Money is the father of luxury, lasciviousness, intrigues, trickery, lies, betrayal, insincerity-of all the world's worst behavior. Fathers sell their children, husbands their wives, wives betray their husbands, brothers kill each other, friends are false-and all because of money. In light of all of this, tell me that we Wyandotte are not right in refusing to touch or so much as look at silver.

"Do you seriously imagine that I would be happy to live like one of the inhabitants of Paris? To take two hours every morning just to put on my shirt and make up? To bow and scrape before every obnoxious galoot I meet on the street who happens to have been born with an inheritance? Do you actually imagine I could carry a purse full of coins and not immediately hand them over to people who are hungry? That I would carry a sword but not immediately draw it on the first band of thugs I see rounding up the destitute to press them into Naval service? If on the other hand, Europeans were to adopt an {note the following word - I'd replace it with indigenous, not 'American' as in a type of settler-colonial European-based nationality} American way of life, it might take a while to adjust but in the end you will be far happier.

"You honestly think you're going to sway me by appealing to the needs of nobles, merchants, and priests? If you abandoned conceptions of mine and thine, yes, such distinctions between men would dissolve. A leveling equality would take place among you, as it now does among the Wyandotte and yes, for the first thirty years after the banishing of self-interest no doubt you would indeed see a certain desolation as those who are only qualified to eat, drink, sleep, and take pleasure would languish and die, but their progeny would be fit for our way of living. Over and over I have set forth the qualities that we Wyandotte believe ought to define humanity: wisdom, reason, equity, etc. and demonstrated that the existence of separate material interest knocks all these on the head. A man motivated by interest cannot be a man of reason."

Ripple (Washington Post) - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(Washington_Post)

Ripple is a section in the website of The Washington Post that republishes opinion pieces of various American newspapers and blogs. Ripple is independent from the opinion section of the Post and is not subject to the Post's paywalls. It was officially launched in December 2025.

[...]

Non-professional writers writing for Ripple will be allowed to utilize AI tool called Ember, designed by the Post to help them write articles. Reportedly, the tool will guide writers through the writing process of the article, advising them on creating an "early thesis", "supporting points", and a "memorable ending", and will also evaluate their progress using a "story strength" tracker. The articles will be reviewed by human editors before being published.

Saw it on the worlds tallest imax and I just kept thinking about how it took $250 million, massive practical effects, location shots, some of the best talent in hollywood, the biggest cameras, the biggest and best film, based on a story that literally coined the term "epic" all just to make the world's okay-est movie.

That's it. It was fine.

Albina Mali-Hočevar (12 September 1925 – 24 January 2001) was a Slovenian member of the Yugoslav Partisans, serving as a soldier during the Second World War and later served various political roles in the Yugoslav Communist Party.

Albina Mali is historically significant as one of the youngest and most active female Slovenian Partisan fighters and resistance couriers during World War II, whose life reflects the broader story of Yugoslav anti-fascist resistance, women’s participation in the liberation struggle, and the formation of postwar socialist leadership in Slovenia.

Mali fought in military campaigns across Slovenia through 1942 and 1943. She was wounded three times during this campaign; on the battlefield in September 1942 near Suvoj, on 21 January 1943 in a battle against a White Guard redoubt near Zagorica pri Čatežu, and on 15 September 1943 near Veliki Osolnik during the battle for Turjak, when a mine exploded next to her causing her severe injuries including a loss of her left eye & her iconic facial disfigurement.

Have you noticed that when it comes to people who support Israel, 100% of the time they are also a massive fucking asshole and a sorry excuse for a human being?

I think this needs to be studied.

And I use "normal" in scare quotes, because, according to whom, exactly, capitalism? Society? Yourself? Some of the "weirdest" people I've met in my life where also some of the nicest and actually helped me out. People you'd peg as "normal"? Well I've had my fair share of shit with them. I'm not about to put up with some reddit lord trying to score points with cool kid podcasters by throwing people who feed the homeless under the bus, fuck you very much.
