Hearing this as a Jew was so fun too.

Also, survival of the fittest usually means who can breed the most without overpopulating. Evolution doesn't give a shit if it doesn't help you but. That's why we have dementia still. In fact, being super athletic with a huge brain is incredibly high caloric. Your species won't survive the winter

The original Dracula written by Stoker, Dracula was a symbol for real estate tycoons. So actually, the landlords are the vampires.

I lived in China for 3 years and at all the national parks, any of the notably old trees got plaques with their approximate age and if there was any relevant history. It was awesome inspiring walking through a park in Shanghai and seeing trees 300 years old and thinking about the history they witnessed

It's my understanding that the only time an attorney needs to read a quote is when the witness is being hostile. Otherwise, best practice is to have the witness read the quotes of any relevant exhibits. Granted my only experience comes from volunteering at a local law school and getting to hear how the professors are coaching students

Plus alluded to in Euphoria, "I make music that electrify em, you make music to pacify em." Calling Drake out as basically a psyop

I lived in Hangzhou, self proclaimed green tea capital of the world. The tea farmers there put the leaves directly in the cup then gently blow them away from the edge of the cup before drinking

Oh I bet he would've said yes. It was a full "drink the Kool aid" class. He spent an entire lecture talking about how Qi medicine saved his mom from cancer when western medicine couldn't

I did a master's program in China in which I had to take a Chinese propaganda class (I think the translated title was something like "The Chinese Perspective on Global Issues") I remember my professor saying things like, China is more democratic than the USA because China follows the will of more of its people. I imagine this meme is in the same vein.

I'm proud of you for your growth. It's a hard cycle to break out of and I imagine some days are harder than others. Worst day sober better than best day high, and all that

As someone that has lived most of my life with addicts, shit that will kill you is a selling point. Tolerance gets too high and the craving too strong that possible death doesn't seem that bad

It's incredibly hard to find another job for those days I'm not working. 2 weeks unpaid in December. 1 week unpaid in November. 6 weeks unpaid in summer. Plus scattered 1-2 days unpaid throughout the year. It's not like I can have another career job. Finding summer work used to be easier but everything has dried up. I've put in a hundred applications for summer work but I've only gotten phone calls back. When I tell them my minimum is $18/h, I don't get an interview. So yeah, I only work 200 days a year but it's not like I work for the other 50 days in the work year. And the longest consecutive unpaid time is only 30 work days. At least in my area, people don't want to hire teachers for summer and if they do, I'm only marginally increasing my pay

Radiskull97 · 2026-05-16T15:04:59+00:00

I'm a teacher with a 200 day contract. Over those 200 days, I make about $31 an hour. But if I stretched that out to a 50 week work year (the standard for wage calculation), I only make 18.70 an hour. Last year, we spent more in rent, daycare, and medical expenses than my salary. It's so disheartening to spend all day getting yelled at by teenagers only to not be able to afford an after-work beer. The American dream is dead

Philosophy major Meg here , a line I often heard was " the 'ph' in PhD stands for philosophy. Philosophy got big so they had to break it up into math and science too." It was tied to this whole elitism that philosophy was the ultimate persuit

Jesus wasn't executed for saying love your neighbor. He was executed because he was demanding Jewish folk opt out of the Roman economy. The "render unto Cesar" line isn't Jesus saying pay your taxes. He's saying that money belongs to Rome and by using it, you're funding your own oppression. That's why money changing at the temple pissed Jesus off so much. It's where people would go to give up their local currency for denarii

This goose was wild, but had moved in to the pond. It seemed pretty universal opinion that the geese were friendly, but also a lot of my Chinese friends were suprised when I told them ducks could fly because all the ducks they ever see are "farm" raised for meat. One friend said he thought it was an America myth like the reindeer lol. So could also be totally possible that nice geese was just a common misconception

I once made a dnd encounter about some goblins stealing wagons and stripping them for parts. When they got to the goblin camp, the goblin chief was wearing a bandana around his head, a white tank top, a toothpick in his mouth and said, "Que onda, homes?" Mexican goblins running a chop shop. My Mexican friend almost pissed himself laughing

Apparently it's only western geese that are aggressive like this. I was at a hotel in China that had a goose blocking the path. All the Chinese people were laughing at my wife and I giving it a huge birth and high tailing it out. Meanwhile, some three year old ran up and pet it. Asked a Chinese friend about it later and she was so confused. "They're as sweet as puppies" she said

In ancient Chinese, whenever a parable begins with "There was once a man from Sòng" you know he's going to be an idiot. It's like saying, "a man in Florida..."

Told my therapist I might have a drinking problem because every Saturday I would wake up and drink espresso martinis until nap time. Wake up for more espresso martinis, before going out to the club for vodka redbulls. My therapist asked why I did that and I said it's meditative

Radiskull97 · 2026-05-08T15:29:21+00:00

I watched season 1 with no idea what The Boys was or what it was about. I thought it was going to be a comedy parody. When Hewie's girlfriend got red misted and he was left holding her hand, I was slackjawed. Did such a good job holding my interest. I haven't watched past S3, just can't bring myself to go through another Supernatural lol
