Haitians actually eat dirt cookies, they called bonbon tè. Women go and buy sacks of dirt, often on credit, and mix them with a bit of fat and salt 😋

Holy fucking beastmode

Laptop students typed almost word for word, capturing more total content but processing almost none of it as they went, while the handwriting students physically could not write fast enough to transcribe a lecture in real time, forcing them to decide what actually matters…

French cooks act like they’re trying to seduce the food, Chinese cooks act like they’re the last engineer on an overheating spaceship desperately staving off core implosion.

We have literally been lied to about everything Matt Walsh “The Rosa Parks story you were taught in school was fake too. This was not just some woman on her way home from work. Civil rights leaders thought Parks would make a sympathetic face for their lawsuit and then told her, a longtime NAACP volunteer, to create a situation where she'd be arrested. This gets sold to the public as totally organic when actually it's playacting to create ideal conditions for a court case or scandal. The iconic photo of Parks on the bus was staged months after the incident as part of a press campaign. (The photo is shown in the clip) The white man, sitting behind her in the bus photo was a journalist, which you probably didn't know.” Let’s fact check this. It’s 100% true What Actually Happened on December 1, 1955 Rosa Parks was a longtime NAACP volunteer and secretary of the Montgomery chapter. She had been deeply involved in civil rights activism for years (including work on cases like the Recy Taylor rape and voter registration efforts). She was not just a random tired seamstress on her way home from work who spontaneously refused to move. Local civil rights leaders had been looking for a strong test case to challenge bus segregation. They even had people cast for the role before Rosa Parks. Earlier attempts include 15 year old Claudette Colvin were passed over because leaders felt Rosa Parks, a mature, respected, married woman with a spotless reputation, would be a more sympathetic plaintiff in court and to the public The Iconic Photo was 100% staged The famous photo was taken on December 21, 1956, this is over a year after her arrest and on the first day the buses were integrated after the Supreme Court ruling It was deliberately staged by journalists, Look Magazine and UPI, for a press campaign to dramatize the victory The white man sitting behind her is Nicholas Chriss, a UPI reporter, not a random angry passenger or segregationist

Even if AI could solve every major problem humanity has (energy scarcity, cancer and disease, environmental issues, etc) — Why would anyone believe the vampires running things would ever allow that to happen? Our society is based on monetizing these problems, not solving them.

One reason the founders believed in a separation of church and state was that they knew it would corrupt religion to intertwine it with politics; and here we are.

Porque pienso que mi vida es demasiado finita para estar pensando si soy o no productiva en un sistema donde soy reemplazable. Y si de todas maneras me moriré, al menos quiero absorber lo único realmente bello creado por los humanos: el arte

This is the danger of only learning Eurocentric history

I don’t feel bad for Ben Shapiro whatsoever. He thought that he could get the conservative movement to look past his Jewishness and accept him and his opinions on Israel as long as they all agreed that Muslims were worse. He’s reaping what he sowed. All I offer is a shrug

What historical fact sounds fake but is true?
