Dolores Cacuango, also known as Mamá Doloreyuk, was a leader in the fight for indigenous rights in Ecuador born on this day in 1881. She was active in the Glorious May Revolution of 1944 and co-founded the Indigenous Federation of Ecuador (FEI).

Cacuango was born to enslaved people in San Pablourco who worked the Pesillo Hacienda near Cayambe without being paid. She had no access to education due to her lack of resources, and learned Spanish while working as a housemaid.

In 1930, Cacuango was among the leaders of the historic workers' strike at the Pesillo hacienda in Cayambe, which was a milestone for indigenous and peasant rights. During the Glorious May Revolution in Ecuador, Cacuango personally led an assault on a government military base.

The same year, with the help of Ecuador's Communist Party, Cacuango co-founded the Indigenous Federation of Ecuador (FEI), an early group in the fight for indigenous rights. She also helped establish some of the first bilingual indigenous schools.

The terrible feeling when you take a nice shit at work and then reach for the bidet controls only to remember your work doesn't have a bidet.

Gonna become one of those people who writes letters to serial killers in jail but for George Santos.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Saw two claims about George Santos today: that his husband is made up, and that his ex-wife lied about him being gay. I rate those as believable, and fake as shit (in that order).

I stopped using Delta 8 vape pens 2-3 weeks ago (I can't exactly remember) because I am looking for a new job. However, I have started having 2-3 alcoholic drinks a night, which I do not want have become a thing. I need to transfer my stress coping to working out or something.

My partner is not from here and she immediately understood the concept of white women, I don't think the dislike of white women is entirely basis or rooted in misogyny although I do definitely see it when hatred for white women is a stand in for white people.

I dont hate white people either, i hate the cynical cultural vacuum due to capitalism and our historical context that is labeled whiteness.

I don't hate my whiteness either, it makes me sad actually. White people loss the ability to commune and the culture they came from, what they gained was the capitalist culture and that's why they're so violent and often evil. I see it in myself and my current pursuits and it's hard to talk about it because the topic is so polarized and the community I try to belong in has a lot of fundamentalism and liberalism.

spongebob-i-fucking-love I hate free speech. I hate how people use free speech to excuse letting obviously bad actors say harmful things because free speech is important above all else apparently, never mind all the ways you already limit free speech. If you advocate for free speech you are inherently a hypocrite because no matter how delusional you are with politics even your smooth libertarian brain still understands that this concept of free speech does not and can not work or make sense in practice.

If there's one thing I've learned from my years of work, it's that some people simply cannot help themselves from sending all-staff emails for the most trivial shit. They need it as you need your daily bread. Their soul thirsts for it

I nearly caught my apartment on fire this morning.

While drunk I binge-ate a lot of food last night including what I normally would have eaten for breakfast so I decided to make french fires instead. Well the metal pan I normally would put the fires on is dirty and I was too out of energy to clean it so I thought it would be a good idea to put them on parchment paper and put that directly on the oven rack. I've done this before with other foods and it's worked just fine so I thought it could work. While pouring the french fires onto the paper while it was in the oven I tired to pull the rack out farther to get more room and ended up accidentally pulling the rack all the way out which spilled the parchment paper and french fires onto the heating element at the bottom of the oven. The paper instantly caught fire and I start panicking and just saying "oh shit" over and over but after a couple seconds I grabbed a large spoon and pulled the paper off of the heating element. Thankfully the fire quickly fizzled out and I was able to scoop all the french fires and paper out of the bottom of the oven, but it was a close call.

I decided to make bagel sandwiches instead after that and I ended up burning my thigh when I dropped the bagel while trying to pull it out of the toaster. Two bagel sandwiches plus left over take away from yesterday was far too much to eat and now I feel so fucking sick.

I also missed class this morning but whatever, they don't take attendance in that one.

This morning is not off to a great start.

I'm feeling better about the years I spent floundering about. I graduated with an Associates in 2014 and that probably didn't help the already bad situation of people with Bachelors willing to step on broken glass for the same mediocre jobs back then.

I should really cook dinner. But the caffeine is wearing off and I want to chill out for a bit, but if I do then I won't have time to make what I want in time for dinner time, but getting up and cutting stuff and then browning stuff and then you gotta get a plate for the first stuff so you can put in the other stuff. And I still gotta figure out part of what I'm gonna put in there. Plus my headphones are dying and I should charge them lest they leave my alone with my thoughts while I'm cooking . . . executive dysfunction is such a great concept for understanding my difficulty in getting up to go make dinner. However I still do not want to go cook dinner.

I had a day yesterday. Taking today off for the most part besides chores. I probably won't even get around to working on my app. I'm close to done with it but stuck on this dumb night mode toggle I am trying o implement.

I don't know what is worse. Too many people all at once or too many unique interactions with people all day. But I had both of those yesterday.
