Bitch, this screen is like 2 inches wide, you better not waste a single fucking pixel. Reading a paragraph that only fits 30 characters per line* is fucking exhausting. “Just reduce the font size!” Then it gets hard to read because it’s too small. But the main thing is: I shouldn’t have to! The pixels are already there for you to use! Fucking use them! Are you stupid!?
“But what about people with fat fingers?” First of all, if you’re gripping it that tight, you will accidentally press things and make it impossible to use your phone. Just grip it lighter, or grip it at the top or bottom, get one of those grip rings for the back, or put in on a table, dummy! You’re not reading a long text while fucking running out and about, you don’t need stability.
Bonus points if your device is black and you use a dark theme, which could use the bezels as free margins but no, I read on some shitty design blog 13 years ago about “negative space” or “air” or “flow” or “visual clarity” or some other bullshit some fresh tech bro pulled out of his ass after an ayahuasca pilgrimage.

you can tell by the amount of text in the meme that it’s lovingly made by a fellow leftist
surely this will be the crisis that finally causes capitalism to completely collapse in on itself 
oh, well, nevertheless
Litmus test: Are they suddenly getting widespread positive coverage in western news?
But the real answer is that every protest is on a spectrum between the two. What makes a color revolution so effective is that it redirects legitimate alienation towards reactionary ends
hmm i wonder if the US has any investments in Israel 
Surely a better way to handle Wahhabism than drone bombs and depleted uranium bullets
Saul couldn't bear getting rid of that ass smdh dick head
you ever think about how "what the fuck" became abbreviated to "wtf" and the two were basically the same for most purposes. but now if someone bothers writing out completely "what the fuck" it's now like a separate phrase with a stronger meaning than the original?
