i think a society failed its youth if they feel old (derogatory) at 20
perhaps a society has failed if it’s people ever feel old (derogatory) rather than old (complimentary)
YOU. YOU GET IT
the issue of tying youth to desirability, whether sexually or culturally, doesn’t go away when you expand what youth is
youth worship isn’t just beauty standards, it’s saying that only the young have ideas or creations that have worth. that age means withering and decay. don’t expand what youth is, dismantle the idea that aging degrades your value as a human being
They are not some anonymous “a tribe in India”, they are the War-Khasi. Speaking as a former anthro student and as a reference librarian, I am beyond sick of posts (and articles, and emails, and museum displays) like this that present the work of a people without actually naming the people. It’s erasure, it’s reducing the great works of a culture to an Ozymandias-esque curiosity for foreigners to consume rather than an accomplishment that should help bring awareness of that culture’s existence.
They are the War-Khasi, a division of the Khasi, a people who call themselves Hynñiew Trep. They live in Meghalaya, and they have been building these bridges in the town of Cherrapunji for longer than anyone knows. They are not anonymous.

The easiest way to clean up the fluffy material so it doesn’t kill the lawn is to set fire to it. It’s densely coated enough that the fire spreads easily but it’s very light and airy, so the fire doesn’t burn hot enough to set anything else alight or kill the grass. The white stuff on the ground comes from cottonwood trees. The trees uses its cotton-like seeds to spread its seeds through the wind. Since the seeds are dryer and have a lower flash point than the grass the burn up first to fast for the grass to catch.
“The Kent State shootings (also known as the May 4 massacre or the Kent State massacre)[3][4][5] were the shootings on May 4, 1970 of unarmed college students by members of the Ohio National Guard at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio during a mass protest against the bombing of Cambodia by United States military forces. Twenty-eight guardsmen fired approximately 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others, one of whom suffered permanent paralysis.[6][7]”
Don’t forget that basically half the country thought the students deserved it…
Another picture from Kent State.
But it was not just Kent State, eleven days later Mississippi Police fired 150 rounds into a dormitory at Jackson State College, killing 2 and wounding 15 black protesters.
Btw half of the students killed at Kent State weren’t even protesting, they were just there
What in the absolute fuck
When the Irish guy has known about this since he was like 8, but it’s suspiciously hard for Americans to learn about…
I literally only know abt this bc my parents are hippies it’s fucked up
I only had a vague idea of what this was and what happened until I did my own research on it.
When I was 21.

Welcome to America. If you want to learn some actual history, then research it yourself
