TIL in 1855, a riot broke out at a circus due to a brawl between firefighters and clowns at a local brothel the night before. During the riot, the firefighters set fire to the circus tent.

 I’m having a crisis. The time of Surak was the time of the Vulcan Nuclear War and not during what I assumed would be the Vulcan crusade times with armour and weapons and shit. This changes everything.

If they had the technology to make nuclear weapons then they had figured out how to make other technology like cameras. Computers. Televisions. Which means, Vulcans with their lack of emotional control and Surakian logic were running with our 21st-century technology doing some really crazy and stupid shit.

  Did they leap into trashcans to make their friends laugh? Did they run themselves into poles and walls with segway-like technology? Did some of their governments have to send out a public notice telling citizens not to try to take selfies with wild sehlats like we do with bears?

Did they change the pitches of their sehlat’s cries to make songs like we do with dogs?

according to Spock’s World, surak was the wealthy heir to a vulcan business

then he saw the impacts of an antimatter bomb, had an existential crisis, and drove into the desert to cry

that was where he had his epiphany that vulcans needed to chill, and became so chill that all the other vulcans agreed that being chill seemed like it would solve a lot of problems

surak was a youtube influencer pass it on

he was actually an sjw with a tumblr, still available on Vulcan Archive Dot Org

if you are a man who had sex with a woman, and she became pregnant, and decided to abort, she does not “owe” you any say in the decision. all you did was bust a 10 second nut and suddenly you get a decisive say in whether or not she goes through 9 months of insanity and a painful expensive labour cause YOU want the kid? fuck off. your role in the creation of that fetus is minimal at best. if you really, genuinely wanted a child with her, you would have PLANNED for the conception of a child with that woman BEFORE y’all fucked. stop giving me that shit about “both of them created it together so they get equal say in the matter!” NO a man ejaculated and THAT’S IT, everything else regarding conception is on the woman’s body, she gets the final say in whether or not she’ll carry to term, NOT you. go adopt one of the 250,000 children in foster care waiting for someone to love them if you want a kid that fucking badly.

all pro lifers can fuck off my post please I still stand by this 100%

remember that reddit post with the dude who insisted his gf carry the baby to term and she left the baby with him and fucked right off and was faithfully paying child support but he still bitched about how his life was ruined bc he expected her to stay with him bc of the child despite her repeatedly stated intentions otherwise

when anticommunists tell u that “you havent paid attention to history” or “you need to study history” what theyre really saying is “why wont you take at face value the biased and often reductionist history you were taught by capitalists about why socialism is evil”. when they talk about “studying history” theyre not interested in talking about every coup the cia backed, every terrorist group the us funded in order to “fight communists”, every war that imperialist powers started over profit, or every innocent person killed in those wars. they dont want to talk about the history of violent racism and police brutality, or about every person the us government has tortured, or the history of suppression of leftists and the working class, or how companies fund right wing death squads, they just want to say “the ussr is why communism is bad”

ok since this post made a lot of people who cant stand to see capitalism critiqued in any form mad im going to provide sources for all the shit im talking about. 

• list of us involvement in regime changes and heres a notable one when the cia helped overthrow the democratically elected socialist president of chile and replaced him with a fascist dictator who was responsible for thousands of deaths
• oh here, 35 countries where the us supported fascists drug lords and terrorists 
• that time when reagan supported and funded islamic extremists because they were “fighting communists”, now go forward a decade or so and the us thinks islamic extremism is a huge threat
• a timeline of atrocities committed by the cia– did you know the cia took in a bunch of nazis spies right after ww2 so they could help the us once again fight communists?
• when reagan illegally sold weapons to iran and used the money to fund a right wing militia in nicaragua called the contras, who were fighting the left wing socialist sandinistas. oh heres all the human rights violations the contras committed while illegally getting money from the us, home of the free and land of the brave am i right
• torture under the bush administration and by the cia
• us war crimes and the casualties of the iraq war
• btw the us has most likely been lying about the amount of civilian deaths caused by drone strikes and the actual number is way higher than theyre officially saying and this is just from the obama administration
• that time coca cola used right wing death squads to murder and terrorize workers and stop them from unionzing 
• nestle using slave labour
• how cointelpro targeted civil rights movements, black power movements, and radical leftists and murdered leaders of the movements 
• when the us outlawed the communist party and being involved in communist actions
• and if you didnt know the us uses prison labour where prisoners get payed sometimes only a few dollars a week all for the profit of the prisons
• list of people killed by police by year 

if you want to tell leftists they need to study history but you dont want to look at any of the crimes of capital, or the crimes committed in upholding capitalism then you dont give a shit about studying history. if you can recognize that gulags were fucked up and horrible, as you should, you cant turn a blind eye on the american prison system where people are being forced to work for almost no pay. so the question is do you actually care about studying history or do you just want to deflect off every critique of capitalism
