melissa is on monads @melissasage@radical.town

like the Whitlam coup is shocking history to me mostly because you rarely hear about the CIA interfering much in white settler colonies lol

a much softer touch was used than in, say, Chile, but the result is the same from the CIA's perspective

I had no fucking clue the CIA had orchestrated a coup in Australia not even fifty years ago, christ

in general CIA history is the single greatest argument against democratic socialism

the main problem with most of the OOP architecture i see is they encapsulate way too much data, so you ask for a banana and the program hands you a banana, the monkey holding it, and the entire fucking jungle

anyone on here have #vagine

MONADS DOWN, I REPEAT MONADS DOWN

when I'm around liberals I have to pretend to be anti theory

I was reading about crocodiles and those fuckers have special heel bones that let them walk sprawled out or with their legs up like a mammal.

Nothing else walks like they do.

And some of them used to be bipedal.

Birds and crocodiles, the only living archosaurs left, have really strange organ systems. They have air sacs, unique bones, special ways of vocalizing and walking and breathing, they're odd creatures compared to mammals or other living reptiles.

Dinosaurs might have had deeply strange ways of breathing and digesting and moving and we'll never really know.

I suppose this is also a thirst trap #onhere

Me, looking to capture thirst: I'm 5'1" and a werewolf!

How many times do I have to delete and repost this horrific image before Masto decides I really do want to content warn AND add an image description?

When I sent this to @melissasage she said "Me"
