Working off of the labor of others, only there because of being born into capital and pre-existing familial or business relations? Yep
And people still try to defend this shit with ‘Well they MUST work REALLY HARD to earn THAT kind of money!!!’
I assure you they don’t. I assure you the people earning the least money are working the most. I don’t see CEO’s doing 60 hour weeks just to keep food on the table. They don’t do that, because they don’t have to, because they get paid so much they aren’t desperate enough to have to.
If you follow me, reblog this. It is an important piece of data. I would love to see one for the annual tax expenditure of minimum wage versus CEO’s as a proportion of their annual income.
This is the aggregation of labor. This is what it looks like. It has happened before. It will likely happen again unless it is changed.
I like how they added “and the world” because it’s true, the rich are bastards everywhere.
opening your closet and seeing your nerd shit alongside your regular clothes is endlessly amusing
Listen someone’s going to come over, see this, put two and two together, and realize you’re the masked vigilante they’ve been seeing all over the news.
When I got burgled last week my cosplay was just lying on the floor and they had to fling it aside to dig through my suitcase. I’ve been thinking about what a good one-shot Batman comic that would be - hapless burglar accidentally discovers teen vigilante’s identity, has crisis about what to do next.
alfred walks in and says “so you found our secret. its true, i am robin boy wonder” and then beats the burglars ass
My favorite thing about Cheddar the dog is that either Holt or Kevin named him Cheddar and I honestly don’t know which option is funnier.
third, equally funny option: his name was already cheddar when they adopted him. both of them think it’s an absurd goddamn name but neither of them know you can just change an animal’s name if you don’t like it. no one ever told them and they’re both much too proper to even conceptualize this notion on their own. the dog was named cheddar and that’s very unfortunate but cheddar he will remain.
fourth, they were aware you could change an adopted animals name but let it remain Cheddar out of respect for his ‘birth’ parents
so like… when people say ‘go outside’ they just mean ‘you need to get off tumblr for a while because your world view is extremely sheltered and warped by internet politics’
saying ‘that’s ableist because some people can’t physically go outside’ is just taking it literally and completely missing the point lol
JKR said that Hagrid still works at Hogwarts in 2017, which means he’s still been alive these past few decades, and I just really hope someone took him to see How to Train Your Dragon.
that someone’s name is charlie weasley and they both cried
