Reply to Bacteria in recalled eye drops linked to cases of vision loss, surgical removal of eyeballs by iamthyfucker
I used eyedrops daily for months. Then I stopped using them for a while. Then I started using them again, and this happens.
Obviously, I'm terrified. I did some research and the brand I've been using has not been recalled, but I'm still scared as hell. Gotta go back to downing water for natural eye lubrication instead..

Reply to comment by TJR843 in All unauthorized Airbnb listings in Quebec to be removed from app, company says by girlfreddyf
No doubt. It's absolutely nuts trying to find an apartment in this city. Every listing has hundreds of people interested and prices have skyrocketed. Meanwhile I looked up how many airbnbs are in my neighbourhood and on my block alone there were at least 20. I would love it if someone actually fucking did something about it.

Reply to comment by itsme32 in LAUSD, unions agree on tentative deal after three-day strike by KingKoopaShell
This isn’t for teacher pay, it’s for school staff pay. Teachers do make more in LA. But still not enough, IMO. And school staff deserves a living wage too.

Generally you use she/her pronouns for feminine drag personas and he/him for masc personas. You are referring to the character they are acting out so pronouns don’t necessarily align with the persons gender expression.

Although there are trans drag queens (and kings!) for sure, general convention is to use she/her pronouns when referring to a queen's drag persona.

Genuine question coming from someone that's ignorant, had she declared that she would like to be called she? Or is that a drag queen thing in general?

I’ve lived here for a decade and never got to see her, but I also learned about her late. Now I’m sad I missed out on such a legend.
Cheers to her and all she has done!

Reply to comment by BigbunnyATK in Another attack on an American base in Syria Friday after US retaliatory airstrikes on Iranian-backed groups by notunek
Yes I can easily sit behind my computer screen and critique those amazing soldiers you’re describing bc they fucked up. 2 trillion dollars spent on that war just for the taliban to take it over in two weeks lol. We sent soldiers there and terrorized those poor people. We gave them a reason to hate us. Huge waste of tax payer money and human lives. we ended up legitimizing them bc of all the horrible things we ended up doing. Things like this type of shit where we killed a random person and 7 children. This type of junk constantly goes unpunished by our govt. how would this make you feel if this was your children who died and the person who authorized it went about unpunished?

This is just one of countless stupid senseless killings we do in these countries. An absolute disregard for human life.
This one is even better. I hope you watch this video and learn something from it.
Brother most of that money we gave them never even left Kabul.
US military industrial complex is the most evil thing I can possibly think of. We are a cancer to the rest of the world.
We could’ve cared less about saddam Husseins genocide on the Kurds. if we actually cared about the human beings living there we wouldn’t have illegally invaded them and killed 500k-2 million people.
We stop genocides when they’re convenient to us. We also support genocides when they’re convenient to us as well.
We also support ethnic cleansing and apartheid by giving Israel military aid.
War is not very complicated. War is evil. That’s not something very complex. A 5 year old could understand this.
My guy we are giving billions of aid to what was noted as the most corrupt nation in Europe. This kinda tells me everything about you. You fail to understand the huge fuck up we caused in Afghanistan and you are failing to see the huge fuck up we are causing in Ukraine. Billions of dollars worth of aid being given to Ukraine just for it to laundered out while refusing to negotiate a peace deal. It’s just laughable. You just want to keep feeding the war machine.
You’re making this weird bogeyman of Russians coming to rape and kill Ukrainians if we don’t throw money at them. You don’t understand that we can also just advocate for peace talks You just seem like a warmonger.
If China attacks Taiwan why should we have any say in the conflict? It’s literally non of our business. We could care less about Taiwan we just want them so we can put bases closer to China.
You are projecting in you’re last statement. You have been infected with our major propaganda system. You actually believe we are the hero’s in this world when we only get involved with global conflicts if we think we can make money off of it or if it benefits the military industrial complex.
There is nothing complex about not idolizing, worshipping or respecting the soldiers that illegally invaded Afghanistan or Iraq and left with possibly millions of afghans and Iraqis dead. I don’t know why this has to be explained to you.
