I used to travel a lot in eastern Oklahoma, and left a lot of stickers at gas stations in the middle of bumble fuck nowhere towns. Probably less smiles and more anger honestly, but fuck them. Also did some on a trip to Missouri, where I’m pretty sure it was illegal for me to piss.

“A trans person peed here” stickers in gas station bathrooms/other public bathrooms.

The Giant’s Drink from Ender’s Game always seemed really compelling to me. The emergent gameplay reacted to your state of mind and serving as some sort of arcane test of your mind.

It’s not helping that I just got this ad

They both have a close amount of syllables. A friend gifted me some extraordinary grass and the multiple counts I have made have failed on their account, but both the English and the mandarin have around 18 syllables [CI: 17-19, p<0.05]

“Jive” is an older term for what you might call less offensively call Ebonics or AAVE. Popular in the 80’s, I remember my mom talking about having a computer program that would “translate” things into jive (while also talking about doing black face for Halloween….)

“Jigaboo” is a slur for a black person.

The Facebook post I got this from had an AI description. I have met some who genuinely had a religious world view based on god being a Shrek made out of flubber (the Trinity manifest in the fact that flubber is solid, liquid, and gas at the same time.)

 
 

It’s something I’ve heard a lot, and it’s obviously a compliment and meant to be nice. But I’m probably never going to have kids of my own and I just think of the father I could have been.

What concerns me is that there is already a massive problem with mental health care in Oklahoma being very religious, and this person being a psychology major. This is not a person who would be a safe practitioner for an LGBT person to turn too - they are showing that they are someone who cannot remain professional and separate their work from their personal religious beliefs.

As an OU alum myself, I also am disappointed with that quality of writing from a junior.

Yeah, the Oklahoman could be covering the multiple deaths that have occurred thanks to Oklahoma child protective services not functioning, or the non functioning mental health system. But nah, this is the fucking hot issue all over Okie Facebook.

be lazy college student

don’t want to bother with the readings

write half baked essay I do no research for (which literally says that bullying is not bad “The article discussed peers using teasing as a way to enforce gender norms. I do not necessarily see this as a problem.”)

throw in religious crap so I can make money on the conservative grifter circuit

 

This is a huge meltdown in conservative circles, and considering how spineless the OU administration is, they’ll probably end up nixing the professor. They are currently working on getting rid of the African American studies department as is.

Edit: absolutely bonkers

There’s a more horrifying story that no one talks about that parallels Sodom and Gomorrah - the story of Levite’s concubine.

The parallelism there suggests that the issue is more with hospitality than homosexuality in particular. In this story, it is heterosexual rape that leads to the destruction of a city. Also kinda suggests that the people would have fucked the angels to death, like the poor concubine.

The way the alt right has been working for the past ten years has been saying something absolutely outrageous, and then claiming it’s a joke/satire afterwords. It’s a way of introducing those ideas into the mainstream while maintaining plausible deniability. They started by “joking” that we should repeal the 19th amendment, but the goal is to shift the Overton window. Any “satire” is a fig leaf.

 
 

I can buy the normally very deliciously painful spicy stuff from Walmart now, instead of the pan Asian supermarket. I’ve noticed that it seems to taste wayyyy less spicy. It feels closer to a hot Cheetos spicy than the proper actually painful way it used to taste.

 
 
 
 

There’s a clear campaign against the mentally ill with the global rise of fascism. Lots of it shows up in anti homeless rhetoric, but you can see it in the MAHA and anti vaccination movements.

There’s no reason to use the word “r-tarded” to describe someone. As someone who’s worked with the intellectually challenged, it’s an insult to them to compare them with people who are willfully ignorant.
