Meaning that relationships formed by choice are stronger than those formed by birth.
Let’s not forget that “Jack of all trades, master of none” ends with “But better than a master of one.”
It means that being equally good/average at everything is much better than being perfect at one thing and sucking at everything else. So don’t worry if you’re not perfect at something you do! Being okay is better!
It goes to show that conformity isn’t always a good thing. And that just because more than one person has the same idea, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good idea.
what the fuck why haven’t i heard the full version to any of these
“Birds of a feather flock together” ends with “until the cat comes.”
It’s actually a warning about fair-weather friends, not an assessment of how complementary people are.
I’ve always felt like these were cut down on purpose.
I really like these phrases and plan on spreading this knowledge.
The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
I want to make designs out of these.
Funny how all the half-finished ones encourage uniformity and upholding the status-quo, while the complete proverbs encourage like…living exciting, eclectic lives driven by choice and personal passion.
women should not need their stories to be corroborated by men in order for them to be legitimized. amber heard said johnny depp abused her, depp’s manager confirming this months afterwards should not be the reason you finally believe her. bey sung about jay’s infidelity and has previously mentioned other issues in their relationship (so has her mother and sister) if you are shocked only now because jay is singing about it then you need to reflect on the value you assign to women’s voices, we, as a society, need to reflect on the value we assign women’s voices
American propaganda works so well that we still have people out here thinking it was totally fine and justified that the United States dropped two atomic bombs on Japanese civilians, killing well over 100,000 innocent people. It works so well that, even though the United States is the only country to ever use a nuclear bomb in warfare, people think that the United States is still the only qualified entity to invade other countries in order to stop them from having nuclear weapons. It works so well that you can read all about every war crime committed by the United States all around the world, with little to no government censorship, and that STILL doesn’t make people rise up in anger. It works so well that you can read accounts of the CIA or FBI literally trying to brainwash Americans into total subservience and people STILL won’t resist.
Americans put the Soviets to shame in how effective their propaganda is. It’s not even close.
I smell Eurofag sissies
this just in: having a basic sense of morality makes you a Eurofag sissy
Choosing to end a war and therefore ensuring fewer casualties isn’t basic morality lol.
The idea that the atomic bombs were necessary to end the war and that they ultimately somehow saved lives is American propaganda. It’s not historically accurate. It was made up out of thin air by the United States to justify their actions. The Japanese had offered to surrender after Germany surrendered, prior to the bombs being dropped (although not unconditionally). They would have surrendered unconditionally after the Soviets invaded Manchuria whether or not the bombs were dropped. You’re literally parroting American propaganda as if it is historical fact on my post about how effective American propaganda is. Thanks for proving my point.
