I posted a link to Lockheed Martin's lost of college partnerships to an Instagram story calling for people to pressure colleges to break contracts, and my comment was deleted by instagram and now I'm banned from commenting on the post til tomorrow. This has never happened to me.

Here's the link

Here's hoping that that fact can halt or at least slow down weapons production. The mask has been slipping especially hard since 9/11 it seems but it feels like it's fully off now. Israel is going to try their hardest to take the rest of Palesrine and exploit its natural resources in order to bolster their military and will probably provide those resources to Ukraine as well. I'm really new with learning about US interests in these regions but looking at a map rn and it's kinda scary how many countries will be essentially controlled by the US or allied to it. Aren't Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Azerbaijan all friendly to the US?

I came across it scrolling through Instagram and got really excited, what a time capsule! I'm about to dig into it right now

Oh yes this is perfect! I can even smell it as you described it lol. For me, it is a must to have older, quaint comfy armchairs and couches that you can sink into. Old Persian rugs. One room with tables for people to read, study, or maybe play some old tabletop games that the cafe has set out for people to play.There would definitely be a cute cafe cat whose usually curled up in her cat bed that lives on a shelf in a corner of the cafe ir sunning themselves outside. A patio area with cute wrought iron tables and chairs. Vining plants like ivy or hops crawling along the fences and climbing up the walls. Multiple espressos is a must, and fresh-ground pour over coffees in big, handmade, funky ceramic mugs. Big selection of teas and other herbal drinks. Kava, mate, puerh, hibiscus tea, etc. And it's definitely gotta be a hub for open mics and workshops for things like prison lettsr writing. And of course a couple punk shows a month because my old beloved coffee shop hosted them and it was amazing!

We should open a cafe together! Haha

This non profit called Fountsin House in NYC won a union contract a while ago and they all gave their maintenance person the biggest raise out of anyone kitty-cri

I hate how accusatory the internet can be. I do get frustrated myself over being told "just do the thing!" But like... That doesn't mean the person telling me is ableist, tf.

Not like I'm immune to being salty on the internet, but yeah. Sorry that's frustrating for you I definitely will think about shit like that for years lol
