Crows My Beloved

yk guys I think a lot of ppl when arguing against the death penalty go for a like "people don't deserve death, etc" view and I get why ppl argue for that I rly do! but it doesn't matter. I don't trust the government to do it, I don't trust them to decide who should die, I don't trust them to determine who is mentally competent, I don't trust them to not be bigoted and discriminatory in their practices, I don't trust them to have the right people, I don't trust them to execute it in a humanitarian way. and I've had discussions with ppl who otherwise have similar viewpoints to me in many ways but can think of people they think deserve to die, and I think if abolishing the death penalty is like, a super important cause to u the same way it is to me, the argument u use shouldn't be "well these people deserve to live" (although in some cases I think yeah the death penalty is done to people who totally don't "deserve it") because that's so subjective, it should be "do you trust the government to do it?" like, do you trust the people who cant even fill potholes on your road to determine who should and should not live

Baby name of the day is Utility, given to a baby girl born in North Carolina in 1868. She had a brother named Mount Vernon and another brother named Wheatly. I am perplexed by the naming convention

Baby name of the day is Ransom Chance, given to a baby boy born in Louisiana in 1849.

I was shocked because Ransom Chance is such a 2026 white Utahan baby name. It feels like something you would see spelled out on the wall in a mom influencer’s nursery tour.

every now n then i think about how native americans as human beings just dont exist in like 99% of mainstream media. in movies or tv shows or books or video games or you know even in porn like we just arent people. when theres a native character theyre like a wild west indian. like truly to ppl we all died back in the 1900s.

i’m so glad goncharov happened pre ai slop era

What if birds could actually speak English and we were speaking bird the whole time. Like really how weird would that be?

the geese are back? God I hate them so fucking much.

what the fuck is this newspaper

I still don’t get why people try to convince me that driving is less complicated than navigating a public transit system. With public transit I’m not doing most of the work.

What if instead of relaxing and just getting off the vehicle when it beeps at the right stop you got stuck in traffic and had to concentrate constantly on what you’re doing or else you kill somebody and started screaming at other people for not using their giant death machines correctly wouldn’t that be so much better

theyre going to shoot me out back tomorrow and i will enjoy it

that's a million million btw. that's ending world hunger and poverty forever. multiple times over.

we seriously need to stop conceding to the personhood trap when it comes to abortion rights. is a fetus a person? thats a spiritual question. i dont care about the answer. should another person dictate what someone can do with their body? simple answer: no.
