Xiang Jingyu, born on this day in 1895, was one of the earliest female members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and a pioneer of the women’s movement of China. She was executed by Guomindang police on May 1st, 1928.
Xiang Jingyu was politically radicalized when she attended the Montargis Women’s University in France. While studying there, Jingyu read many of Marx’s works and became a communist.
In 1923, Xiang became editor of a weekly supplement to The Republican Daily, a Guomindang newspaper. The same year Xiang Jingyu was also elected as a Central Committee member and became the first secretary of the “Women’s Movement Committee”.
In 1924, Xiang led a strike involving about ten thousand female workers from silk factories. Then, she founded the “Committee of Women’s Liberation” and trained many female cadres, who then became a force against feudalism and imperialism.
Xiang Jingyu was arrested in the French Concession Sandeli in Wuhan on March 20th, 1928. French officials turned her over to the Guomindang in April. On May 1st, 1928 she was executed.

Lmao I didn’t realize one of ’s recent nominees for best international picture at the oscars was a propaganda piece for the Falun Gong. Libs fucking love doing PR for far right cults, it’s insane.
Falun Gong isn’t just any far right cult, it’s a CIA far right cult
I am watching a buddy play Starfield, and he’s having fun, so I am trying to not be shitty about it, but dear god it is testing me. The game looks awful, even by Beth day 1 standards.
I’m reading the sub right now and so many people are posting “this game is so beautiful” and then the screenshot is the most mid, procedural generated landscape you’ve ever seen.

I was today years old when I realized “they know the score” wasn’t a reference to sports but to musical notation.

Nonono it’s about bank robbers and they know the plan for the big heist, right?
when the small business owner says vaguely leftist things
Every remotely good vegan food place has a bunch of anti-capitalist slogans posted around. I know the owner doesn’t believe it, but at least it ends up as a decent signifier that the tempeh is good
the point here is that professional youtubers, podcasters, twitch streamers etc. are all small business owners
making the majority of your income by WAGE LABOUR, you’re a prole
making the majority of your income by literally anything else, you aren’t
if you don’t get this then you did not understand marx
read theory again until you get it
preferably while being guided by a partylibs, the lot of you
I mean there’s a really big difference between making money by exploiting wage labour and by creating a popular product through your own labour. I’m not arguing that makes any left content creator a prole, but they’re also not necessarily bourgeois either.
- every youtuber of even moderate size has employees
2… they are literally no different from any other version of the petit bourgeoisie, the only “difference” is instead of paying a landlord for workshop space, they pay a “platform” for digital space how is that different?
Holy shit do I not care about this enough to be the target of this stewed energy you have on this topic I’m not debating you

Had silken tofu (deep-fried) for the first time today. Found the texture combination really weird, like an overcooked custard. Maybe I didn’t like it so much because my cultural expectation is for that texture to have a sweet taste.
I think firm tofu is my go-to.
Like an agedashi-tofu?
Got a big nug of ginger that looks like a lil teddy bear and I’m like damn I can’t hurt you. Now I understand why people in the oldney days thought mandrakes were tiny people
humans will literally pack bond with anything
I ate half a pack of teddybear biscuits yesterday though, so who cam really say
what’s going on with emojis here? ive seen other instances complaining about giant emojis, is this foucaults boomerang?
edit: actually it’s not happening anymore. i dont know what to think
emoji size varies wildly, even the same emoji between desktop web and jerboa
im talking desktop web baybee - we’ve got the big emojis now.
Other instances see our emojis as the full size image.
yeah i know that but im seeing the full sized images on here now. I think what might be happening is people are marking emojis as NSFW and that makes them big.

ok i dont know how to mark an image nsfw

Wish we could get rid of the sun without the planet freezing. Honestly, even with the freezing it might be a worthwhile trade-off at this point.
wondering how Don’t Look Up has aged, it was so “hamfisted” at the time, boy i do hope it feels as silly in this, the hottest summer ever
i can always trust the

but on the other hand I am gripped by a urge to piss conservatives off as hard as humanly possible since nobody but me and seven billion right wingers exist and i have no reason not to fuck with them.
I support this 🙏

I love Haskell but it’s still absolutely hilarious to me the first thing my lecturer said about it is like “It’s a real programming language, people use it in production. It’s real I tell ya, it’s real!!”
we’re a very defensive people
Hello, I would like to measure the clock cycles and memory usage of one thunk please
Genuinely I do hope you enjoy learning haskell and get a lot out of it, but as far as I’m aware literally the most notable (in terms of real world use) piece of software ever written in it is like, pandoc.
