The Russian Revolution of 1905, also known as the First Russian Revolution, was a wave of mass political and social unrest that spread through vast areas of the Russian Empire. It included labor strikes, peasant unrest, military mutinies, and the formation of grassroots councils (soviets) of people's power. It is widely felt that the 1905 revolution set the stage for the 1917 Russian Revolutions, and for Bolshevism to emerge as a distinct political movement. Lenin later called it "The Great Dress Rehearsal", without which the "victory of the October Revolution in 1917 would have been impossible".
The 1905 revolution was spurred by the Russian defeat in the Russo-Japanese War, which ended in the same year, but also by the growing realization by a variety of sectors of society of the need for reform in the face of agrarian crisis, economic stagnation, and political repression. However, it is generally felt that the detonator of the insurrection were the events of “Bloody Sunday”, in which a mass demonstration -led by priest and police agent, Georgy Gapon- which had sought to petition the Tsar for relief, was fired upon by the troops, killing hundreds of marchers.
There followed clashes in St. Petersburg, and spreading unrest throughout the rest of the Russian Empire. Strikes spread in three great waves: January, October, and November. In June the crew of the battleship Potemkin famously mutinied against their officers. There were further clashes in St. Petersburg in December.
The rebellion did not overthrow the autocracy, but by late 1905 the Tsar felt obligated by events to agree to constitutional reforms, including the establishment of the State Duma, a multi-party political system, and the Russian Constitution of 1906.

lmao a tech bro just ended their long argument defending trans people against a transphobe with "we're descendents of industrial anglo-saxons, not native americans and tribal people"
Edit: they also just said the transphobe must be anti-military too. Never trust a tech bro
friends, it is with a heavy heart i must inform you that i have contracted a case of the big horny. i hope you will be understanding as i proceed to do absolutely nothing with this condition, aside from trying very hard to suppress fantasies and being cripplingly awkward around people i find vaguely attractive (and not even in an endearing way!), eventually blooming into all-out avoidance.
i have already attempted to turn myself in to the volcel police, but they told me that all their officers were already occupied with more pressing cases. if those people are indeed worse off than me, i only hope they can get the help they need, sooner rather than later. the fact that some people disrespect our boys in blue balls makes me sick to my stomach.

Tell me why, in the wake of finishing the rough draft of my manuscript, I shouldn't take this writer's idea and make it my own. I want to take this idea
Showcombine it with this meme

When im in a racist accent competition and an asian diaspora "comedian" enters.....
ShowAll the men I like turn out to be gay
I need to find me a bi chaser boyfriend
I feel so lonely. I needed to be surrounded by some combination of queer, neurodivergent, artsy people who cared about social issues when I was growing up
Studying computer science was such a mistake. I love my factory worker parents for moving to a rich neighborhood for me but going to academically focused STEM schools in nice suburbs was not it
Lmao, my wife’s Midwestern-as-you-can-be centrist aunt just expressed her concern over the election because “I’m not voting for Trump, but on the other hand there’s no way in hell I’m voting for a war criminal”
This is someone in her late 60s that was a massive Mayo Pete fan that lives in a swing state
It’s Joever folks
more writers should answer dumb questions with "i don't think about that, and neither should you"
I have BPD and I am considering it a small victory that I'm not deleting my Hexbear account after getting slightly embarrassed in another thread.
I just learned for the first time that tiny dancer wasn't edited into the Trump RBG video, it was actually just playing in the background when he found out she died lmao
Hell yeah, I'm about to start playing shows again after a long hiatus, Idk if you are talking about music but I'm glad people still play and appreciate live performances, I am always worried that it's a dying art and everything is digital now, but people still dig it
I feel like (in my lifetime anyhow) live music has never been stronger (in my city). but I guess I've only been going to shows for like 7 years and I don't go to like, that many. But we are seeing new venues crop up a lot!
folks,
CW: sex
I got used as a dildo by two lesbians (my partner and her gf).
Haven't been able to sleep right for a long time.
This was easier when I was a kid. My friends were kids too, so we were up all night on what passed for messenger apps in the 12th century. It's lonely now that everyone's old, has kids, has jobs, has responsibilities. Just me, keeping hte night watch.
damn this is not the direction I expected this comment to take
this is kinda starting to be me but my friends are still younger so usually someone is up kinda late, and when I'm up early/late I sometimes get to be the emergency contact for someone in crisis or just having a tough time also up at a stupid hour
otoh I'm also trying to not have a fucked sleep schedule like my dad did growing up. Never got more than like 6hrs at most and often insomniac. Its no way to live, not if you can avoid it
tfw don't have kids, a job or responsibilities so can stay up all night like that... but everyone else my age is busy with those things
