Yes, but no way I’m sharing them.

Likewise! ^ ^

I recommend you check out “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness” by Michelle Alexander.

The basic getaway from the book is this: Segregationists didn’t go anywhere, and since the time of Ronald Reagan, the ways the segregationists found to keep black people down are mostly related to the economy and law enforcement. The stereotype being attacked is now the “gang-bangers”, those from “the hood”. Not all black people… Just most of them.

From the 60s-70s, black people living in near industrial zones where they mostly worked were hit by mass unemployment due to their relocation. Rather than try to find a solution, propaganda stigmatising them was massively produced, the “war on drugs” was started to punish them for the only survival means that some found. Black people serve disproportionately long sentences, and are forever alienated when they get out, often unable to find jobs. Not only those who were imprisoned, but their families and communities suffer from this. This is not only true of drug-related crime; but sometimes things like misfiled taxes. The war on drugs was basically a pretext to over police and arbitrarily arrest black people, and dissuade them from forms of protest against their situation.

Now, compared to segregation, this is as big a net, but not such a tight one: This systems allows some black people to escape this system and get a situation equal to white people… But of you look at the bulk of the stats, many aren’t better off than during segregation.

These were at first, right-wing policies bore by the Republican Party, but Bill Clinton ended up doubling down on them instead of opposing them, because he didn’t want to appear “weak on crime”, since then there has been no opposition to it in mainstream politics.

Colorblindness helps this system, because it keeps you from naming the oppressed group, and thus from seing the oppression. It makes it easier to swallow the idea that the millions in prison are no-good gang hooligans from the mysterious land of “hood”, but that for the most part, black people are doing fine, because those who went to the same school as you or are among your coworkers are doing fine.

Wait till it learns to hate…

It’s the sassy pose…

“Bad” I can’t say, you took no risk, and thus made no mistakes, but also displayed little skills.

Using triangles for the bodies is a good idea, as triangles are a good shape, you can do anything with triangles. Have you consider increasing the amount of triangle, as such?

I dropped the round heads in the last one, because honestly, circles are an overrated shape. And you can do anything in triangles, why use anything else?

You can find any number of foolish ressources online, none of them tells you the truth about triangles. All sorts of websites and yet more websites try to teach you how to draw, without even mentioning triangles in any of their tutorials.

Oh right, that’s a shame, I should’ve tested it first.

I personally use searx, a metasearch engine which lets you chose among many sources and returns results from all the selected ones. If you go into the settings, pic the “engine” tab, you have tabs for each specific search mode, and under “image”, Pinterest is along the options, alongside many others.

If you intend to make it your everyday search engine as I have, there’s one tiny caveat you should know: Like the Fediverse, it’s a service without a central server, where everyone can host an instance, the list of public instances is here. But since all of them are managed by individuals or small groups, they can fail or be overloaded, so you may have to switch to another one once in a while. Hosting your own instance is also an option, but I have yet to get around to learning that. Right now, the instance I use is search.be .

Short for Ludovici Giovanni.

This is getting seriously depressing, I knew who it was before I checked the username. You posted that you were going to quit drinking after the superbowl, right? I believe the superbowl is over.

You have a serious problem, but not an unsurmountable one. Get help if you need, I think you do. You can do it!

Internet pictures with words are fucking dumb

Memers in shambles right now. Webcomic artists, to shreds. Researchers who use diagrams with legends in their publications, pulverized. Journalists, atomised.

A child draws a picture of his father and writes “I love you” for it is the man’s birthday. He posts the picture online.

YOU FOOLS!

Yells the mother, as she beats them both to death with a large brick.

In the halls of the United Nations, an envoy reads the latest finding of his commission: “I’m afraid every character of every alphabet is ultimately a drawing.”

“But that would mean…”

“Yes, I’m afraid. Every text online counts as internet picture with words. Including the meeting reports that Stephanie posts on our site.” Sound of typing stops, as Stephanie looks up, aghast The discussion resumes, the tone rises and descends again, a consensus is reached. It is a hard choice, but a fair one. All the lettered people are to be buried alive.

One of the big reasons why it’s considered unsafe to swim in floodwater is the hygien: Remember the sewers must be overflowing. Plus, the water can have engulfed any amount of chemicals (oil, gaz, battery acid…)

That might be a part of it, but…

Maybe it’s not Trump? Maybe it’sTristan/Honda from Yu-Gi-Oh!

Flynn apparently doesn’t work or perform any regular household tasks. This doesn’t seem to be the case of Roonie (“It sounds pretty good” , Roonie doesn’t know for sure whether or not it is pretty good, thus mustn’t be living this life).

Roonie does Everything, Flynn has three meals a day and a place to sleep and yet complains that there’s nothing to do? That doesn’t sound fair.

I classified my memes and sorted them in folders and sub folders (like, the “wojak” folder is a subfolder of “rage”). I might have a slightly different problem.

Are you a wombat?

Yeah, but that’s only really a trap is there’s a way to keep him from escaping. Voldemort escaped pretty easily; had Harry not been there, he could’ve tried for some time, figured out the trick and then just left to re-evaluate his options.

While not explicitly stated, it’s possible that that’s actually what he did: If he’d figured out Harry, Ron and Hermione had been snooping around and had found the room with Fluffy, Quirrel might’ve willingly dropped hints so that they’d check, let the music play longer than he needed to so that they’d know someone was trying to take the stone and he could lure them all the way down.
