Thats the catch 22 of America, its “good” except when its not, and like 60% of Americans are one missed paycheck away from it being “not” - And once you’re there this country hates you and does everything it can to make sure you stay fucked.
See: SCOTUS ruling the other day that you can’t illegalize homelessness but you CAN illegalize homeless behaviors like sleeping outside or in a tent.
(Because since pot is increasingly legal we have to bolster those legal slavery numbers somehow!)
I couldn’t say it better so I’ll just second this.
There are days I just want Terry Crews to run as Camacho. Don’t know where he stands on shit but he can physically crush an opposing world leader and that seems like a start.
No, this is Patrick.
The epitaph on your plaque will say, “Here’s the result of your hopes”
Don’t let anybody tell you you can’t consume or not consume whatever content you feel like. Theres an uptick in this weird attitude of “you’re an asshole/fascist/whatever trying to cancel everyone” if you decide to stop watching someone or buying a product. Its bullshit, you don’t owe anybody jack.
You’re one person. Either you bailing won’t matter, or a bunch of people bail and they learn their lesson. Either way you don’t have to put up with a damn thing you don’t want to. 🤷
I started a home server on an RPI running some services with a dinky HTML page on it, I need to start actually posting to it. I’m already not on fb or Twitter or anything, if you want to know what I’m doing go to my homepage loser! 🤣
Well thinking genocide is bad makes you antisemitic now so yeah it tracks unfortunately 🤣
Because executive order was the only way to get it done - other methods would have required evidence that doesn’t exist. You’re only backing my argument lmao.
With absolutely zero tangible evidence, which is why it was a complete non-starter for four years until Biden lost control of the narrative.
Its not helping Biden not being able to censor information on his part genocide. None of them gave a fuck about tiktok until they told em to take down pro Palestinian content and got told “lulnope”
So many people divorce within a few years too, and (in most places, maybe not all) divorce is a long tedious drawn out process - so a lot of folks spend more time getting divorced than they do getting married.
Idk why people bother anymore, the tax bennies aren’t even all that good for most people.I was with my ex for a decade, raising her kid, and breaking up with no muss no fuss here’s your 30 day good luck in your future endeavors. Meanwhile it took her like 3 years to divorce her ex before me.
I see that show every time I go to NYC, its required.
This is the internet, absolutes or gtfo!
Eh renting is something that people need, and some people prefer. At least a local woman owning a couple spots keeps the money in the community instead of an out of state owner paying an out of state management firm to pay some dude peanuts to live there and actually run it or whatever.
This is the key problem of the housing market. For generations we’ve been told the only way to wealth is home ownership - so nobody will ever support more housing because you don’t live in a house, or a neighborhood, you live in an investment and you’ve put all your retirement eggs into this single investment instead of diversifying. So, if new housing pushes value down you don’t see “Hey new neighbors” you see “there goes my retirement.”
Now, of course, institutional investors are involved and we’re just all fucked.
I live near the projects (no judgement, I had my stint in the pjs) and there’s a dude who lives there who flies a “don’t tread on me” flag. Guess he doesn’t mind treading so long as it’s paying his rent though. 🤔
He recently upgraded it to the “thinly veiled let’s overthrow the gubmint insurrection 1776” flag. It makes me want to drop a note in his mailbox asking who will pay his rent if he overthrows the govt?
Same reason they want to ban TikTok, it’s the only platform they can’t police.
Oh nobody likes the healthcare system except the people profiting from it and the people who think billionaires will love them and share if they sing their praises enough.
