The fact that Twitter allows porn but not public death threats and tumblr allows public death threats but not porn is objectively funny and the fact that a large portion of us chose the latter over the former is objectively funnier

Next up someone is going to claim that the Narnia series isn't kids books.
Kids books is probably not the best way to word it, you can enjoy them at every age, including your childhood, as you get older you may find new truths in them, but they're still good for any age.
In the United States right now, the Birthright Citizenship argument is making headlines again as Trump is petitioning the Supreme Court to start over and rule again on their recent decision to uphold the language of the 14th amendment as it is written. This is gonna be a long post.
Since the Supreme Court has made that ruling, conservative influencers, extremist far-right platforms, and some Republican politicians have expressed their disapproval dramatically in a way that suggests this is a new, unprecedented ruling that will fundamentally change the American way of life extremely negatively. In truth though, the ruling means that the same law that has been in effect for 160 years isn't changing. Nothing new, nothing different.
The clause in question, ratified in 1868, states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
The popular arguments are 1.) the amendment, written in the 1860s, was only in regard to freed slaves to guarantee their rights as citizens, and 2.) they don't understand the phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" and are interpreting it to mean something it doesn't, usually something along the lines of assuming a non-citizen is only subject to the jurisdiction of their home country and not to the U.S. Neither of these hold any merit.
1.) The amendment was intentionally written with the phrase "all persons." While someone can maybe argue the amendment was motivated to be written in order to grant freed slaves their rights by establishing it in the Constitution, the phrase "all persons" was clearly used to be inclusive of everyone regardless of the status of their parents, or even regardless of if they themselves were born here if they're naturalized later. The word "all" doesn't have a double meaning, it means all. All persons, not just freed slaves.
2.) "Subject to the jurisdiction thereof" means that you are required to obey the laws of the country and can be prosecuted if you break those laws. People who do not have legal citizenship here, whether they're just visiting as tourists, in the process of legally immigrating, or are illegal immigrants with no path to citizenship, are all subject to the jurisdiction thereof when they are on U.S. soil.
That statement in the 14th amendment is saying that you are not automatically made a citizen only because you are required to obey the laws of the country; you are not a U.S. citizen just because you can get arrested and held in jail or prison, you must also be born here or naturalized.
It also means that you're not automatically made a U.S. citizen if your parents are U.S. citizens and you're born in another country; if your parents then bring you to the USA you are now subject to the jurisdiction thereof, but you weren't born here and you haven't been naturalized, so you are not a citizen of the USA (however, U.S. parents do have options to obtain citizenship for their foreign-born newborns, it's just not automatic).
At the moment there is no method or process where you are born in USA, or naturalized later, but are somehow not subject to the jurisdiction thereof. Currently the only way for someone to not be subject to the jurisdiction thereof when they're on US soil is to be a foreign diplomat and granted diplomatic immunity; if they break the law with diplomatic immunity they can be forcefully expelled and banned from entering USA again but we can't prosecute them in a court of law. That being said, if you are born here or naturalized later, and are also a citizen of another country, you are not allowed to be stationed in the USA as a foreign diplomat of the other country. So, currently, no matter what, if you're born here or naturalized later, there is no way to NOT be subject to the jurisdiction thereof when you're on U.S. soil.
The amendment does imply though that if that ever changes, if there is ever a point in the future where you can be born here (or naturalized later) but NOT subject to the jurisdiction thereof, then you would not be a U.S. citizen.
Entry level jobs haven't existed since the 2008 crash. 90% of hiring managers won't hire recent graduates. A quarter of job listings are ghost jobs. Companies hire part time so that they don't have to give benefits. Federal minimum wage hasn't increased since 2009. The True Unemployment Rate is 25%. Master's are the new bachelor's. For most the job search takes over a year. 75% of resumes are never. actually seen by the hiring team.
Imperialist core entry level jobs have been replaced with outsourcing for the working class and internships for the wealthy.
The lack of entry level jobs means that recent graduates are not hired because they are expected to know in advance how to behave in the workplace rather than being trained when they begin working.
Actually as many as 1-in-3 job listings are fake, because this allows companies to claim they are "actively recruiting and growing" even when they aren't, which looks good to investors and can lead to government benefits as well.
In the US, hiring several part time jobs allows companies to save about 30% on benefits compared to hiring one full time job. This is directly because of the US's predatory healthcare system and lack of the worker protections common in other imperialist core economies.
The US minimum wage has been static for my entire adult life, in part because efforts to pin the minimum wage to cost of living metrics are constantly stonewalled by wealthy political groups.
The US labor participation rate is around 80% of abled adults, which yes, does mean about 20% of abled adults are not working, but perhaps much more damningly, this is actually very high participation compared to a lot of US history, and yet the cost of living and pay are so mismatched that quality of life is reaching impressive lows.
Masters degrees are being devalued as a consequence of the prior devaluation of Bachelors, that itself caused by the destruction and devaluation of compulsory public schooling in the US. This combines with the absence of entry level positions in deeply fraught ways.
I am unable to corroborate the claim that US job searches average greater than a year. However they do average well over 7 months, and the US's notoriously spiteful and underpaying unemployment system cuts off support much sooner than that. If you can even get unemployment support in the first place.
And finally, yes, 75% of completed and successful applications will be automatically rejected by machines without human oversight. That's for complete applications on the company's own site with resumes attached. Just plain resumes, and applications completed on third party sites like Indeed, have much worse numbers than even that.
And if your name doesn't "sound white", you're fucked. From the last link above:
if you submit a resume with a “white sounding name,” you have a 50 percent higher chance of getting called for an initial interview than if you submit a resume with comparable credentials from an individual with a “black-sounding name”

Okay okay we all know Johnny cash did his cover of Hurt and we were all like “ok he owns that now” but I watched the music video he made and I’m like “oh he OWNS it owns it”
It’s totally wild to me because most people agree that Trent Reznor is a master of his craft and Hurt is considered one of NIN’s best songs. Imagine having this great hit and 8 years later a musical legend who hasn’t done anything great in a long time and is ostensibly dying takes your song and fucking. Just fucking obliterates you
Holy hell that's video is…painful and stunning. If you grew up listening to Johnny Cash I think it'll hit even harder. And June Carter Cash is in the video, which takes hard and doubles it.
#i remember my friend vali saying#why is anyone trying to make songvids to this song?#the most emotionally gutting video has already been made#by johnny cash himself (@bossymarmalade)
I'm glad people who didn't know who are discovering it's a cover, not just because Trent Reznor deserves that much, but because I think the fact that Cash did not write it is crucial to the power of his version. This is a young man's song about suffering, about addiction and self-destruction in youth. And Cash is, in the most majestic possible way, taking that and going "oh kid, you have no idea", and changes the meaning without changing the lyrics (except for a single word). In his voice, on his face, in his aged hands on the guitar and piano, it becomes about the agonising brevity of life, the irretrievability of mistakes, and the inevitable loss of everything, including a recognisable self. But the creativity of repurposing only shows if you can still see what was originally there.
[Image description: a post by "Dana White" (@/ItsDanaWhite).
The planet is burning up and you're mad about who I'm fucking. You're living paycheck to paycheck and mad about my pronouns. One bedroom apartments are $2k and you're mad about my mannerisms. No social safety net, but my affection in public sends you into a rage. Pause, indeed.
Do not let them erase this. Do not let them tell you he meant "my heart goes out for you."
This man is the grandson of a Canadian Nazi sympathizer who moved to South Africa BECAUSE he thought the apartheid was just the coolest.
He has a gaggle of kids specifically because he believes his genes are superior and need to be spread to improve humanity.
He has thrown his support behind the neonazi party in Germany and the far right party in the UK, not to mention how far he's wormed up the ass of the Republican party.
He threw two sieg heil salutes back to back at the inauguration of the president of the United States and is trying to scrub the evidence off the internet.
