yeah /fashion/ apparently

zany xanax addict cop who laughs inappropriately and doesn’t believe in a single thing or cold and condescending racist warhawk who laughs about 30% less?

it’s definintely higher than that, there’s plenty of americans who support israel but don’t want their taxpayer money being spent on things outside the US

The eurosceptic party nonetheless won a record 16.2% of the vote … Just a week before the election, a policeman was stabbed and killed at an anti-Islam rally by an Afghan man who was not living legally in Germany, an incident which shocked Germany and could have boosted the showing for the anti-migration AfD.

what is this bullshit journalism? AfD’s been polling 16-22% for the past year and they’re trying to pin it on something a random immigrant did last week?

AfD polls (blue line) have been decreasing the past 6 months, no real of way of knowing how it goes going forward

Bamboula’s Village was an attempt to recreate an Ivory Coast village within the Planète Sauvage zoo in Port-Saint-Père, near Nantes, in France.

In 1994, the biscuit brand Biscuiterie Saint-Michel teamed up with the safari park to create the village, naming it “Bamboula’s Village” after its “Bamboula” chocolate biscuits, which had a black mascot with the same name (a racial slur, dating from colonial times).

Twenty-five Ivorians, including children, were hired for six months to build and inhabit the village. They performed every day of the week, and received pay below the French minimum wage. Dancers were forced to work bare-chested despite bad weather. Performers’ passports were confiscated; most lived confined to their huts (the park gate being closed in the evenings), which provided less space than required by labour law. Children were kept out of school, while medical care was provided by the zoo’s veterinarians.

Anti-racist organisations and unions formed the group “Non à la réserve humaine” [“No to the Human Zoo”] and began legal action against the park. By the time that the court had sent an expert to document human-rights violations, the performers had been ordered out of the country. The village was closed in September of 1994. The park had to pay a symbolic one French franc (€0.15) in damages, plus legal fees. Bamboula’s Village was demolished, and the Bamboula chocolate biscuit was no longer sold.

I live a little north of NYC and have family my mom and I stay with in South Carolina. It’s a 740 mile drive, about 13 hours. with unpredictable traffic and rest stops it usually takes 15-19 hours (ntm it’s awful for the car and very mentally draining)

Beijing to Wuhan looks to be a little under 4 hours on this map. They are 730 MILES APART

next time we drive south i’m gonna spend the whole time yearning for an alternate universe where the trip is done at noon and we spend it watching a movie and appreciating the countryside dashing by instead of sitting in stop and go traffic in bumfuck virgina hoping we make it before 2am while evangelical billboards about the rapture loom over us

btw i do NOT actually hookup with strangers on the internet i just very briefly made an account cus i was bored and high

i literally had the same convo 2 months ago and screenshotted it 💀💀

Some of the projects included work from season 3 of the Amazon show Invincible

hype

i’ve seen a couple posts about this phenomena before and every time i check the comments there’s people going “that’s how they stay rich!” as if pocket change gave them their lake house 😭

the fact all these mfs PAY MONTHLY FOR TWITTER while emphasizing penny pinching is fucking hilarious (2nd/3rd just have the checkmark hidden, you gotta scroll past every blue to get the normal users)

had a friend of a friend offer me and my two friends a slice of pizza. before we could even finish bro pulled out the calculator app on his iphone 15 to determine we all needed to add him on venmo to send 94 cents each. next time i saw him he talked about taking cruise ships every summer

yea it’s illegal to even lay a finger in most of South America and Europe

Hey smartass Germans have been getting faded for a while, it’s been de facto decriminalized for years (aside from in B*vria). Go to any major German city in the past decade or two and you’d smell it as fast as in Cali. If you spent a day in Berlin you’d smell it on the clock lmao

Ok who was gonna tell me 13 year old Javier Milei was in an A24 film?
