I hate any financial assistance that doesn't address the root cause, because all it is at that point is more tax and wealth transfer to the rich.

Touché

I'd support every war if the first wave in was these old Republican fucks. Let Bolton storm the beaches.

There is just no way to communicate these numbers effectively to the masses 😕

The minute you mention 1.5 degrees people turn their brain off, as "that can't possibly be a problem"

You have to spend like 2 weeks explaining weather, climate and history before somone is educated enough to understand the problem.

Meanwhile bad actors can just say it was cold today in August! Where's your global warming??

And all your work is undone in 2 seconds....

It's fucking frustrating

That's such awful mileage in 2024. God damn, there's excavators with better numbers 😂

I canceled prime as soon as they introduced ads into prime video. You should do the same.

You'll be less tempted to buy shit from them as an added benefit!

Easier to use? That shit is not easier, it's exactly what the cashier does, but now you are doing it for free.

If it was a system where you dump your shit and it totals it for you, that would be easier.

Da fuk....

You love to see it

People always shit on stuff they don't understand. The UN was created so a world war would never happen again and they've been damn effective.

The UN isn't some magical no war fairy, they try to resolve and encourage corporation but there are limits.

Pretty much every mega corp, except Costco, is a mega douche.

Even shirts and caps are questionable. I'll make an exception for Obama because that was historic and his shit was actually cool.

But all the rest of them, donate if you want, but wearing Harris or Trump in public is just cringe.

Doesn't matter. All my books are epub. If kobo starts eating dick, I go somewhere else.

Watch out, we've got a badass over here!

Kobo and epub only. Anything else, you don't own and you shouldn't pay for it.

The pronouns were asking for it, wearing that skirt!

The mother has some question to answer when it comes to her BF choices.

Sadly you are right

I don't know about recession, but I know I've hit a personal inflection point with prices where I'm just sick of the bullshit and only buy if absolutely necessary, or on sale.

Everyone is so fucking greedy, everyone wants just 5 more dollars bro to the point where the consumerism has been driven out of me.

I actually have money to buy shit, I just don't want to anymore because nothing seems to correspond to its value anymore.

A new car? 35 k for a fucking base kia, gtfo out with this shit.

New phone? 1.2k for the same screen bullshit as the last 5 years.

Same with this PS5, they are pricing this shit like it's lifesaving medicine, when in reality it's just shit no-one really needs

Those are all fantasies. Every incarnation of a fascist government has always lead to war, famine and suffering from the regular people.

The fantasy you describe STILL requires cooperation, honestly and trust, which are impossible in a fascist dictatorship.

At best the 1% get a few years of living the high life like Saddam, but sooner or later it all falls in on itself.
