smitethepatriarchy:teaspoonies:smitethepatriarchy:endangered-justice-seeker:It’s easier to think of someone as “lazy” than to face the fact that school costs too much, that better jobs are inaccessible, that childcare is unaffordable, that people are forced to work so hard for so little that there’s no way they could have enough energy to attempt schooling or finding better work, and that what we give to people who can’t work is insufficient to the point of being shameful. I could say that calling people lazy is, in itself, lazy, but it’s not just an intellectual shortcut. It’s a defense mechanism.That’s me that’s me I wrote that!! Omg it makes me so giddy with happiness to see my work on a spreading Tumblr post like this. Anyway that bowl thing looks amazing and would probably help me to eat a lot more vegetables, and it’s even more amazing if it can help disabled people make salads and save money by not having to buy pre-made salads.@smitethepatriarchy Do you have a link to this article?
