At my new company my coworkers always recommend sweetgreen and I fucking hate it. 20 bucks for a salad with too much kale and can of sparkling water.
I think the rest of us are dumbfounded with the spectacle that is natural disasters in the Southeast. I support Floridian refugees taking our black jobs, living in our hotels and eating our cats. I refuse to expend the CO2 needed to rebuild their state, time for this project of annual reconstruction for a minority of folks to enjoy some beaches and palm trees to end.
The thing about this country is that most of us are a bunch of settlers who need to be humbled on the international stage. We are the bad guys and I feel it's advantageous to the good people of the world that we have an incompetent bumbling idiot as our leader. The sooner Xi fires the nukes the sooner we are to turning the corner on this very sad point in history. As John Brown put it, "the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away, but with blood".
My absolute favorite is to hit them with even more religious bullshit. "As a devout Catholic I cannot deny Jesus of Nazareth is the rightful King of Israel and his kingdom will reign through the hearts of all; it transcends borders, language and culture. To acknowledge another Israel would be against the practice of the church."
Blue state republicans are the absolute worst NIMBYs. These small towns and villages are doing everything they can in upstate New York to block green energy projects. All these made up zoning and code regulations that we have to fight in court. Not to mention these local officials are all flunkies who don't know how to write laws so we end up winning after burning a pile of money.
I'm gonna start learning Mandarin.
