I truly hate when little Right Wing Hitler youth open their mouths and give opinions in their over sized fake glasses, that they think will make them seem smart ,on things they know nothing about.

But listen to a real farmer rip her apart.

More of you need to learn that there is nothing to be gained by responding to racism with fact checking. The only reasonable response to racism is "shut the fuck up you stupid cunt".

This is a thread of small behavioral changes that have changed my life, feel free to chime in with yours:

Not once in the 80s, 90s or 00s do I recall a politician urging the public to embrace email, mobile phones, texting, two factor authentication, online banking, air fryers, or to replace all their cassette collection with a CD collection.

So forgive me if I smell a rat.

A word too big to contain I don’t like rules around colour, they are very silly. Red and green should never be seen? Tell that to a rose. Pink is never to be next to orange? The sunsets seem to manage it. And no shade…

What a nightmare scenario.

What Color Is That? No seriously, what color is that? I genuinely cannot tell. Aim your camera at a color — get its name, details, matches, plus colorblind palettes and simulation. Save colors with personal labels.

Someone asked for an app to point your camera at a color and find matches. Cool. Here.

BUT ALSO: I'm colorblind and never thought to make this for myself! Save colors ("new paint," "mom's fave"), get colorblind-friendly complements, simulate what you see vs. what others see. Legit using this daily.
