A New Hampshire Republican State Representative anonymously created the “Red Pill” subreddit.



Wow.



these aren’t just bullshitter dweebs in their mom’s basements trolling the internet, these are men who formulate the way we implement laws and who govern the way we live our lives.


^^^ Hello, yes, everyone needs to see this. It’s not always a bunch of nobodies trolling around on 4chan. It’s, doctors, lawyers, judges, businessmen, bankers, law enforcement, etc. People who have pulls on society. They literally don’t see other groups besides themselves as human or equal




I have met dudes that have said similar shit in the workplace. This does not surprise me

Can you imagine? Would give us so much more rest and free time.



The average office worker is only productive for 3 hours a day.


Every article talking about this study talks about how bosses can squeeze more labor out of workers, or how workers can squeeze more labor out of themselves, but the reality is that the human brain only has so much capacity to focus on unpleasant tasks, and people generally won’t work more than that without the threat of force (like in manual and service industry jobs where work is easily quantified and workers are being monitored all the time to make sure they don’t slack off; the threat of being fired and losing one’s ability to eat is the threat of force). People in hunter-gatherer societies do about that same amount of work.




@whynotrobin

The working day isn’t only about productivity, it’s about keeping you busy too, so you’ll have no time do to other things (like study, discover that you can fight back capitalism, organize, things like that).

worst at what i do best

My brain: Hey.

Me: Yes?

My brain: So I've been thinking. You have a lot of really successful friends.

Me: Don't.

My brain: And you are, like, nowhere near as successful as any of them.

Me: Please let's not do this.

My brain: So I thought we could just go over literally every single decision you've ever made in your life and catalog all the times you fucked up.

Me: Could you not?

My brain: Strap in. This is gonna take a while.

Poche Posh is the first and only store where all the clothes have pockets

Poche Posh was created by me (Jessica) and my best friend Visha who noticed that most of our clothes didn’t have pockets. After seeing years of Tumblr complaints, and being excited every time our clothes had pockets, we decided to create Poche Posh. All the clothes have pockets. Yes - all of them!


Thank you all so much, this entire company was inspired by the people of Tumblr (I have another account, and have been on the site for 6 years, and after seeing people constantly talk about pockets I knew that something had to be done


Share this with anyone who loves pockets on their clothes!



HALLE-FUCKING-LUJAH!



@sasakikentipede @porkerpines @thislovelymaelstrom @queenmogar117




Game changer. And they are affordable!
