  • This is me. I absolutely know better. I didn't fall for it. I'm perfectly willing to drink the disappointment when he wants an Israel tax or something. But God strike me down if this isn't neat.

    Me two days ago when Mamdani advertised New Yorkers vs Bad Landlords. Now they have to pay for her stupid salary.

  • "what do you think of market socialism?"

    "Like what they're doing in China?"

    "No, it's more like Vietnam"

    "I have no clue what is going on in Vietnam. I'll have to read up on that"

    Nobody has ever read up on anything in their lives. The conversation is essentially over and is the most you could ask for

  • This is a derivative of the original comic

  • The ancient Internet has a rebuttal to this but it uses the R word.

    Here it is

  • I can just feel, in my heart, the buzzing of every conspiracy theorist. It's an orgy of tinfoil that sounds like a thunderstorm

    They had sex? Uhhh, yeah, everyone who's not agen- wait, nevermind

  • "Sir, your hours in Satisfactory tell us all we need to know. You're free to continue"

  • I thought it was like a backup of your medical records. Also there might be medications that require special consideration like a blood thinner making your gums bleed or something. In addition, if you need some kind of accommodation because of a disability that might be worth writing down.

    My source is that I feel it like the na'vi feels the forests of Pandora

  • Only at the super bowl party did I realize how much the Epstein shit effected me. Is this real? You're going to break my brain

  • I think in terms of anything I ever learned about therapy and considered in my self reflection that if your aim is to be more mentally healthy then your goal ought to encourage you to be kinder to yourself. In that sense, an ideal mindset wouldn't be becoming less cringe, but rather to cease to be so cringed out by your past. That one day you might face it and understand that you were and continue to be a human constrained by your life experience, knowledge, and desires on a linear timeline with no do overs. Your existence in society is inexorably tied to confusion, an attention economy, and unfathomable violence. So to recognize yourself as imperfect could be a mental movement explored without it being a verdict on your worth & a debt to be paid and you can give yourself some grace from the vacuum you likely frame your shortcomings in. Insodoing the new cringe that comes up stops being an existentially threatening punch you always need your guard up for and becomes more like a rainy day you face with warm soup, curiosity, patience, and reflection.

  • But the market didn't get to decide whether the cessation of the horror of war crines is valuable or not

  • Could have sworn that figure was NK, but I didn't look it up before posting. I had to include Vietnam because of the barbarism which is geographically and chronologically close to the same conflict to my understanding. It only serves to highlight the horrible horrible way the US acted.

    And absolutely, I am absolutely not thrilled about the apartheid state. Please excuse my focus on the conduct of the US towards the outside world. Shout out to the Tuskegee experiment.

  • We also have one of ourselves which makes me smile

  • I was rolling it over in my head one time and I came to the conclusion that any type of food that was healthy or otherwise targeted to people conscious of the food they eat would struggle. If you care about your diet, you care about the quality of ingredients and that's a pain in the ass compared to the shit they put in food in the typical fast food chain. Then the people you serve are still going to complain.

    So you end up in a situation where nobody is paying your prices to source good ingredients, you're targeting a small niche of the people around you, and you don't get to just open a franchise + turn your brain off. It seems like you'd have to ask for support more than you could profit off of the venture by way of making a product people want.

  • Tankies stop at the system is fucked. It can’t be improved according to them, tear it down and build a new thing. Obviously that won’t happen and if we tried it would animal farm into something worse right off. And just isn’t true, the system here worked relatively well after the second world war. Never perfect, but with controls on the system and governed by mostly reason, we did make the most prosperous working class the world has every seen by a large margin. Now gone, chiseled away by the CPI having been understated for half a century averaging 2-3 percent a year just by 2008 under the new measures, while it was 5-8 percent under the old.

    That was not a good faith change, it was done to steal from working people at every level and stage, and give to investors, and no one questions it even still, as the ivy league suits tell us our buying power has never been higher, when that clearly isn’t true.

    the system here worked relatively well after the second world war. Never perfect, but

    You mean the people who kept threatening people with nukes? The people who proliferated atomic weapons giga? The ones who did 56 military interventions (old figure btw, doesn't include Venezuela, for example) in South America post WW2? The one that proliferated military bases all across the world? The Bay of Pigs people? The ones that invaded Vietnam because they were bored? The people who made North Korea the most bombed place ever? Coup in Guatemala so that bananas were cheap? The people who would rather destroy civilization than coexist with the USSR? You're saying that system worked relatively well? I'm saying that they were barbaric up to and through current events.

    I could have a prosperous working class too if I decided that my money was the world reserve currency because everyone else died in WW2 and proceed to loot other countries. But the prosperity that was enjoyed by others would, and was, only because there was a big strong union fighting and bleeding for the advocacy of the working class.

  • Is the ending the point of the song, you fool?! Is the corn tortilla the point of the dorito or is it the cool ranch? Can I have some?

    "Who's going to clean the toilets?" is a civilization ending question? Why doesn't the public just put a bounty on methods of making it not suck?
