    TIL: Suicide Rate in the United States Just Hit Highest Point in 75 Years

    Jump

  • Agree, but I don't think it's limited to ads or PSAs, I think everyone with empathy is having a real hard time, because the news and the internet is constantly making them aware of, just, awful things. War and famine abroad and at home, all while like, 800 people in the world sit atop mountains of gold, doing absolutely everything in their power to destroy the planet and subvert democracy. We've been past the climate change "tipping point" for YEARS, and we're still growing our oil and gas consumption. Anybody that cares about peoples suffering, is going to suffer, because we can't empathise with everyone, everywhere, all at once. And yet, that's what we're asked to do, everytime we see the news. We're still trying to play todays game by yesterdays rules.

    The reality of the situation is that in the lifetime of your child, they will see complete economic and agricultural collapse. Why do you think that syphilitic pedo rapist wants Greenland so bad? Because projections show that giant iceball is going to be our best farmland in 60 years. Meanwhile any nations near the equator will be absolutely fucked. Chemical manufacturers in the US have so captured the government, that they've been poisoning all your water and food for decades without as much as a peep from regulators. Gotta get that new glyphosate weed and bug killer! nevermind it's been banned by almost every country except our dumbasses.

    if this were minecraft, I'd say that all we really need to do to save our species, is kill about 3-400 billionaires, redistribute their wealth, put a blanket moratorium on oil and gas usage, transitioning the worlds fleet of cars to electric (or just abandoning them all together in favor of trains), and establishing a one world government. Just think of the amount of artistic and scientific endeavors we could achieve if man were allowed the freedom to breathe and live. Imagine if you had universal healthcare, universal pre-k and daycare, imagine if you were given a 4 year college education just as a matter of course. Imagine if rent control existed, and a universal basic income to allow you a basic standard of living. Imagine how much happier you would be.

    Hey, we're only like 3-400 billionaires deaths away from achieving it.

  • Find what you like and stick with it

    Jump

  • it's so much food, and stupid filling, but only like 2000 calories for the whole thing! When I want to lose weight, I can either stick very strictly to JUST that food, and I'll lose about a pound or 2 a week with zero activity. However, I'm also an amateur bodybuilder, so I gotta keep up with my gym time at least 3 times a week, so if I maintain that activity PLUS keep to this diet, I'll lose a pound of belly fat every 2 days. It's pretty dope.

    I like to get real sexy and svelt, get down to like 155 (I'm 5'8" Male) for the summer and for my birthday, once I hit my birthday, I'm allowed to eat whatever the fuck I want until I feel the itch to lose weight again. I'll balloon up to like 185 or 190 in the winter with all my snacking and extra chocolate, but all the while I keep myself from going too crazy by sticking with my usual meal plan.

    My guide to life is "everything in moderation, but especially moderation"

    Jump

  • Wow, men were already creepy and stalker-y enough, now we got some constantly on-line machine that's whole job seems to be validating whatever crazy behavior the person is engaged in... Quote from the article is now you "...can have mob mentality without the mob."

    That's scary. Internet used to let you connect with other people that had the same interests as you, making you feel a lot less alone in the world. Now, it doesn't bother connecting you with anyone, it just gives you a nice positive feedback loop of your own crazy turned to 11. Everybody with their own, personal fan-girl in their pocket, available any time of day or night. Man people are just too stupid, you can't be going around validating everybody's ideas. Some people have some crazy fucking ideas

  • Shit I always thought I had a little 'tism... Yeah I've eaten pretty much the same meal plan every day for over a decade. Soup and Sandwiches! Can't go wrong with a bowl of soup and a sandwich for dinner, nope nope!

    Breakfast is Steelcut Oatmeal made with splenda, cinnamon, and a dash of salt. 2 cups of coffee, each with splenda, pinch of salt and cinnamon.

    Lunch I don't eat, just power through with caffeine.

    Dinner is two open-face turkey sandwiches. Scirachi aoli, cheddar cheese, smoked turkey, turkey pepperoni, jalepenos, topped with a nice bed of crunchy lettuce. A can of high-protein soup, with some tobasco and (a lot of) extra beans thrown in, microwaved for 6 minutes, then pop in some Italian seasoned croutons, let them soak up the soup for like 15-20 min while you eat the sandwiches, turns that bad boy into a delicious bready stew. Add to the dinner a pound bag of baby carrots, and a big ass iceberg/cabbage salad with whatever dressing for a great big bolus of fiber.

    For dessert, Get you a sugar-free package of pudding in your fav flavor (Banana Cream and Pistachio), mix it with 3 cups of cold fat-free milk, let that sit while you eat din-din, then pour some rice krispies over the pudding, and eat it layer by layer, adding rice krispies for mouth feel as you go.

    Fucking delicious. I've eaten that everyday for around 15 years now? I've gotten better recently, and have started having pizza nights, where I replace the soup and sandwiches with a whole pizza, but yeah, 99.9% of the time, soup and sandwiches. Classic combo. The best combo.

  • Why does postal voting favour the American Democratic Party?

    Jump

  • The more people that vote, the more people vote democrat. republicans are doing literally everything they can to disenfranchise voters, because it's the only way they can win elections. I mean, they stole the last presidential election after failing to do it the previous time. I'm not so sure we'll have an election in 2028, the pipeline of "sending untrained militia into the streets hoping to spark an incident that allows them an excuse to invoke martial law and cancel elections" is running very smoothly.

  • This is a real "AI" ad from the US government about the end of the mandatory use of the auto start-stop.

    Jump

  • I'm not sure it's possible to hate this administration more than I already do. But everyday they're out here, making the absolute most dogshit choices available, trying to reach a new high score. I'm not speaking in hyperbole when I say that drumpf is literally the antichrist.

  • Are all republicans just genuinely dumb as a fucking brick?

    Maybe the central theme of a functional democracy should be education, because it seems to destroy conservative agendas (because the conservative agenda is based on idiocy, hate, and racism)

  • “Every single traffic death is a policy failure, it’s a design failure, it’s an infrastructure failure,” she said. “And if we make different choices when it comes to how we design our streets and how we design our laws, there won’t be any more traffic deaths.”

    Great quote. Yup! If we had more trains, busses, and bicycle friendly infrastructure, there'd be a lot less dead people

  • Right, Reddit... Riiiight...

    Jump

  • I got this all yesterday too. I thought it was because I told the moderators of r/pics to go fuck themselves.

    On a picture of Greenland, I made a comment about how drumpf wants it because after 30-40 more years of climate change, Greenland will be great farmland. So instead of acting to combat climate change, him and his gang of pedophile rapists are attempting to cash in on it.

    R/pics moderator removed the comment, and said if I wanted to use r/pics again, I had to reply with a carefully worded apology message to them. I did it, so I could message again, and then told them to go fuck themselves. Now I'm banned from r/pics. OH WELL.

  • What lyric has stood the test of time for you?

    Jump

  • Jeff Tweedy is, I think, the greatest American lyricist of his generation. His stuff always hits. But for some reason, Wilco- She's a Jar and it's chorus, has always stuck with me.

    "Just climb aboard

    The tracks of a trains arm

    In my fragile family tree

    And watch me floating inches above

    The people under me"

    Another one from Jeff's (I've seen him in concert 5 times already, I can call him Jeff) solo Album, Jeff Tweedy- I know what it's like

    "When the lights are dim

    In my window I have a twin

    I'm always looking out

    And he's always looking in

    I know what it's like

    Starting over again"

    And then, finally, from one of the greatest flows in the rap game, MF DOOM- Figaro, and this weird ass lyric that has lived rent-free in my head since I heard it

    "Off pride tykes talk wide through scar meat

    Off sides like how Worf rides with Starfleet"

  • Family sues Nebraska police over fatal shooting of depressed teenager: The family says officers shot their son dead within 30 seconds of unlawfully entering their home.

    Jump

  • They didn't call 911, the school "security" officer followed the kid home, escalated the situation, refused to leave after the kid and parents told her to, then just walked into this families home, escalating it even further before her backup decides to shoot the child 9 fucking times.

    Meanwhile, the kid only ever picked up the knife because he felt threatened by the cops, which... he was. Stalking someone to their home and verbally accosting them while doing so, making vague threats; "you better not hit me," is seriously fucked up. She goaded an emotionally distressed teenager into having a reaction, and then killed him for it in front of his parents.

    Jodi Hefti and Kyle Blunck should be in prison.
