One of the wildest things about the coup is how many conservatives have no knowledge of basic security culture. So you end up with videos of unmasked people basically going “My name is Shirley, I own a bait shop in Shelbyville, Missouri and I stole a laptop from a conference room.” No foresight at all.
“i 100% believe white privilege is a myth but i’m also so sure i can break the law with impunity that i’m happy to go on national television and admit i broke the law and tell you who i am.”
the wilful ignorance and absolute idiocy of these people is just STAGGERING like idefk where to start
I’m glad that we’re all on the same page that Trump being steadily banned from all of his major platforms is a largely empty gesture and a desperate attempt to save face for these companies after they spent five years ignoring or outright supporting his fascism because it was profitable to them, but at the same it’s still fucking hilarious that Trump’s been permabanned from pretty much all social media in less than a week, and we’re definitely enjoying this show
Speaking of Animal Crossing I find it really funny that the two newest villagers that moved in like within a week of each other is Coco with no facial expression whatsoever and Dom who looks like he’s 2 seconds away from crying at all times
Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen
“These artifacts were excavated by archaeologists from a burial site in the 1970’s. The remains were returned for reinterment”
Okay cool, cool cool. So you just, like. Dug up the grave of a respected family member, stripped them naked, mailed their body back to their family and kept everything they were lovingly put to rest in. Like a graverobbing bastard
Reminds me of the time when of the elders from my hometown started touching a totem pole in the Museum of Anthropology out at UBC and got yelled at by the staff, only to tell him that the pole had been stolen off of the front of her bighouse when she was ten years old.
Museum collectors did the equivalent of kidnapping a family member when they were away fishing.
