some things iā€™ve learned about adulthood that no one warns you about

mybuckystar:

  • you will in fact continue to have acne past the age of twenty
  • you will eventually hit a point where you start to feel icky inside if you go too long without eating some sort of vegetables
  • depending on your current level of athleticism/physical activity as well as the kind of activities you did as a kid/teenager, your joints may start acting whack in your twenties, despite what everyone says about that not happening until middle age
  • eventually you will reach a point where you wonder how you were able to stay up until 3am nearly every night and be perfectly fine the next day (and this moment will come much younger than you expect)
  • it is much harder to meet new people after youā€™re done with school than sitcoms would have you believe
  • donā€™t let society tell you shit: it is perfectly acceptable to live with your parents after you graduate, thereā€™s no need to be broke and miserable just so you can have some misguided attempt at independence straight out of school

CEOs and large corporations are the real welfare queens šŸ‘‘.

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 withĀ ā€˜Well they MUST work REALLY HARD to earn THAT kind of money!!!ā€™

I assure you they donā€™t. I assure you the people earning the least money are working the most. I donā€™t see CEOā€™s doing 60 hour weeks just to keep food on the table. They donā€™t do that, because they donā€™t have to, because they get paid so much they arenā€™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 CEOā€™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 ā€œand the worldā€ because itā€™s true, the rich are bastards everywhere.

this pic from my biology textbook is way funnier than it needs to be

I hate being a bio major bc I know exactly what this stupid picture is referring to

do tell

there are these things called survivorship curves and there are three types Type I (shown in red) Type II (blue) and Type III (green) Theyā€™re created by looking at birth and death rates of a given species and the curve shows at what point in time an organism of a specific species will die. For example, humans have a fairly low infant mortality and if you make it to around age 16 youā€™ll probably survive until youā€™re around 75 unless thereā€™s an accident or you have some undetected disease that would cause you to die early. Type III are plants, fish, and other marine animals that have a very low chance of survival at birth but if they make it past infancy they will likely live to their life expectancy. Type II are birds, small lizards and mammals and they really just die randomly.
