live fast, die inyour40s

I just got an ugly surprise! I was SA'd by my doctor while being biopsied a few months ago and now apparently have to pay $345 even though I was explicitly told my insurance would cover it completely 😂🔫

I have other expenses I'm stressed about but this is currently the most pressing.

Bucky: well I joined the millitary then "died", was brainwashed to fight for the bad guys and remembered who I was after reuniting with my best friend years later, who I was in love with from the moment we met.

Close up video of Haunani-Kay Trask in 1993 speaking into a microphone wearing a Haku Lei.

“We are not American! We are not American! We are not American! We are not American! Say it in your hearts, say it when you sleep. We are not American! We will die as Hawaiians, we will never be Americans!

The Americans, my people, are our enemies and you must understand that: they are our enemies. They took our land. They imprisoned out queen. They banned our language. They forcibly made us a colony of the United States. America always say they are democratic, lies! That is a lie! They have never been democratic with native people, they have never been democratic with Indians, they have never been democratic with Hawaiians.

[CROWD CHEERS]

The United States of America is the most powerful imperialist country in the world, in the world! They control the United Nations, they control the Pacific Ocean. All these nuclear submarines, circulating throughout the Pacific. The United States of America is a death country. It gives death to native people, and the only way to fight the United States of America is to be political! Kaua! Kaua! Kaua! Fight! Fight! Fight!

I’ll like all your thoughts and prayers for the people of Afghanistan. Today, the Taliban recaptured Kabul, and all the progress, how minimal and expensive it was, of civil rights, woman rights, and others will probably abruptly end. My own uncle is in the country, and as stubborn he is, he refuse to leave, for he desires to help the people there.

i dont know the context but i cant stop watching this tiktok

the drama???? the energy???? the facial expressions???

Take money, for example. You can’t just have people in a fictional fantasy world walk around using Euros. You consider something generic, like ‘silver coins,’ but before you know it your world starts sounding like a shitty ren faire.

…didst thou mean dollars?

“Nevermind. They’re using some basic silver coin and then enough gold to be worth ten silver coins is called a ten-piece”

…Si, si, el Peso!

Trying over, they’re minted by the king so they’re called crown coins, or, these days, abbreviated, they’re just Crowns

Naturligvis, vi skifter Daler ud med Kroner!
