Stfu Quotes

Haters are alot like crickets. Crickets make alot of noise. You hear them, but you don't see them. But when you walk pass them... they STFU!

it’s all about slowing down, speaking with intention, letting other people speak, asking good questions, and then really listening to the response.

To live is to struggle. It is in struggling that we appreciate what we have. All of us have suffered adversity, and because of that, we understand the simple beauty of our current lives all the more.

We've learned too well to become good theoreticians, but have not learned to be good practitioners of what we preach. When ideas from books become only that and don't translate themselves into our lived realities, at best we've become disingenuous, and at worst we've become dangerous and destructive to the ideals of the movements to which we adhere.

Researchers have found that doing something boring makes people more creative. They suspect it might be because the brain, when bored, goes looking for things to do. It feels unsatisfied, so it goes into Search mode. Thanks to smartphones, we can keep ourselves from ever being bored. There’s always a distraction. But that distraction is unproductive. Our brains become occupied with empty activity, which leaves no room for daydreaming or creative thinking.

That elicited a barrage of Fuck yous and STFU cunts in response before blocking and unfollowing her.

Globy Dick @GlobyDick Maybe I can help. Terg is a term of abuse which is short for ‘True Earth Rejecting Globularist’. It’s a way of censoring people who don’t believe in medieval superstition and who believe the earth is round, even if that (allegedly) offends people from the southern hemisphere RT 14 L 68 Sally Jenkinson @saljenk07342 STFU Terg RT 4 L 95 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire I’m from the southern hemisphere and it doesn’t upset me RT 1 L 15 Sadie @sadie93ozumvjfs You’re white though, aren’t you? RT 0 L 62 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire Yes. What difference does that make? RT 0 L 8 Sadie @sadie93ozumvjfs [rolling eyes emoji] None at all mate [laugher emoji] RT 0 L 64 Dennster @true_earth_matters The whole point of globularism was to demean the indigenous people of the countries in the so-called southern hemisphere. If you’re white, you arrived there through imperialism so you’re part of the problem RT 17 L 194 Globy Dick @GlobyDick What the hell are you on about? Can you even hear yourself? The whole point of ‘globularism’, as you call it, was to describe the shape of the earth RT 2 L 16 Dennster @true_earth_matters OK Terg RT 0 L 83

Globy Dick @GlobyDick OK flat-earther RT 0 L 5 Dennster @true_earth_matters Read a book RT 0 L 43 Globy Dick @GlobyDick After you, mate. Maybe you should start with Copernicus RT 0 L4 Sally Jenkinson @saljenk07342 STFU Terg RT 0 L 21 Sadie @sadie93ozumvjfs Hahahahaha! Copernicus was another white guy RT 0 L 32 Globy Dick @GlobyDick Out of interest, are you black or white yourself? RT 0 L8 Sadie blocked Globy Dick replying to Dennster Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire What makes you think ‘globularism’ is an imperialist project? That’s ahistorical bull RT 1 L 23 Dennster @true_earth_matters Are you serious? Have you ever heard of Christopher Columbus? RT 2 L 54 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire What does Columbus have to do with anything? RT 0 L 6 Dennster @true_earth_matters Do you Tergs know nothing? He only invented the idea that the earth was round

replying to Dennster Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire If you knew anything about history, you’d know the world’s leading thinkers have all believed the earth is round since Pythagoras in the 6th century BC. Plato said the earth was a globe. So did Euclid. So did Archimedes and Aristotle 1/... RT 8 L 90 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire The Greek mathematician Eratosthenes used geometry to calculate the earth’s circumference in about 250BC and got it nearly right. The Romans believed the earth was round. So did St Augustine, the Venerable Bede and Thomas Aquinas 2/... RT 7 L 84 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire You can disagree with all those learned historical figures if you want, but don’t tell me everyone was a flat-earther before Columbus. That’s a downright lie 3/3 RT 5 L 79 Dennster @true_earth_matters Sorry, Terg, but you don’t know what you’re talking about RT 8 L 118 Trent Meyer @meyer_the_fire Actually I have a doctorate in the history of science. What’s your qualification? RT 6 L 89 Dennster blocked Trent Meyer Sally Jenkinson @saljenk07342 STFU Terg RT 0 L 57

The whole world needs to STFU.

When you feel overwhelmed or unfocused, what do you do? Whenever I feel overwhelmed, I complain to my wife about it. After listening patiently for about 30 seconds, she generally tells me to STFU. Then I meditate or work out.

Capitalist Patriarchy thrives when women shut up and do as they are told. While it would appear (for some of us at least) that if we play by the rules, we will be safe—those of us who begin to rock the boat with our questioning and refusal to STFU know how easy it is to be thrown off the boat altogether—children and all.

OMG. STFU. If I don’t remember it, it didn’t happen.

Choose a specific conversation today and focus on finding spaces where you can say nothing. You’re not being rude; you’re being polite. It’s easiest to do this with strangers.
