Yeah, you have it correct. If taxes don’t pay for it, you pay for it directly.

Yyyyyup

Man I would love to know the artist as well. Sorry I have nothing to offer =\

He’s a fucking clown. Stop giving him media coverage and let him die off in the void.

What’s especially fucking dumb is the argument of ‘hurr money out of your pocket’. That shit goes right out the god damned window the second you look at where our taxes go i.e. the budget. Of what we overall pay education is laughably low.

Yup I’m in agreement. Yes this is the comic strip sub, but this literally offers nothing of entertainment or comedy value at all. Plus why tf is this marked NSFW??? In reference to your question maybe block the User?

I think what cracks me up is this Eric Conn dude is probably a keyboard warrior working a desk job or something. I highly doubt he’s out busting his ass herding cattle and building fences then making some self righteous post on xitter.

Yes, generalizations are usually bad, and there are exceptions to literally any group. Doesn’t mean it’s a myth. The term wouldn’t exist if it was a myth, and wouldn’t be so widely used if there wasn’t a large amount of truth attached to it. I’m also not discrediting the issues we have with corpo bullshit. Thats obviously it’s own issue, but I will point out that part of the reason corp interests are in our politics at all is again because of the same group voting in the ability for lobbying by those corps.

It’s not a myth. If it wasn’t so disgustingly true across the board I’d be in agreement. Class war over generational and all that, but I’ll also call out the systems and people that are actively (STILL) shitting all over progress. Their generation is at fault in large part to why we’re so utterly fucked and continue to be (see Reagan). The majority of our gov is run by geriatric fucks that refuse to align with their constituents and cling on to their positions until they’re literally in wheel chairs. Those are fucking boomers. They’re in charge still, and they’re the ones holding the reins on voting in any iota of progress in any number of categories, one being minimum wage. Fuck them.

Seems obvious now that you’ve said it, haha. Thank you for the help!

Who the fuck is CBP??

Man that phrasing really got me, lmao. Thanks for the chuckle.

Jesus fuck holy hell this was me down to the letter. Only difference was my meds worked for probably a year, which made the drop in productivity even more obvious. Like a ‘why brain no worky’ moment that just curved down over time. I had other shit going on though that I like to partially attribute, plus my med spiking up to 450 a month was enough for me to get off meds which was even more horrifyingly bad. Now 2 years later I’m back to being unproductive and kicking myself 10 times harder because I know what I’m capable of. Queue the endless anxiety / stress / guilt cycle. Now I have to go through finding another doc, then 6 months of scaling whatever med, that’s if I ever remember after work that I need to do it to begin with. Only time I ever remember is laying in bed at night losing sleep because of the amount of anxiety I have from not performing.

Jesus what a shit parent. Sorry you had to deal with that. Hope you’re better now and don’t have that toxicity in your life

Hooray for more posturing! Really nice that this current administration has shown without a doubt that our entire system is full of spineless garbage that really will do nothing to balance power, which is literally why those branches of government exist. Yes AOC is a firecracker and more verbal than most. Yes, she drives change and is a speaker for a the people. But without any backup from the entirety of our gov, she’s just a megaphone yelling into a void.

Yeah my issue is my hyperfixation is gaming. Other hobbies every now and then, but never anything useful like programming, even though that would be a major boon. Anything learning-wise and my brain just shuts down, finds everything it can to distract, etc. when I’m medicated though? Yeah, I’m def the dude on the left. Power through anything, learn anything. Literally feel like the guy in Limitless when my meds are working.

Fucking Amen dude. Recently saw a clip about the ‘F.U.R.R.I.E.S.’ act. Jesus Christ Texas gov is a disgrace. Hoping this is the beginning of shit turning around.

Sorry to hear that man, hope things get better for you.

Great news for ‘the rest of the world’ but I’d prefer not to deal with this shit here for 4 years as well god dammit.

I like it! Has a very viceral and cave drawing feel to it.
