Such an old and simple antibiotic

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

First that shit is not something you can pop like candy, your teeth can and will fall off if you use it as a "basic" antibiotics (which you shouldn't be using as anyways without a pressing need? These things are nuclear bombs in your system, you might experience organ failure just from one pill excessive use)

Second the Chinese quality pills usage have been leading all of us to an antibiotic resistance catastrophe

Fun times when this things will be needed and they won't even work anymore thanks to overuse

Bottom right pic hits hard. I plan to die in some fashion long before that. Fuck planning or saving for retirement if it doesn't matter.

In other news, Denmark raised their retirement age to 70 recently, and our conservatives in the US have been squawking about the same. LOL.

What the fuck is the point of this shit existence for anyone who can't become rich as a celebrity or wall street psycho? 90% of us are just here so the wealthy can have yachts, Lamborghinis, and mansions.

This place sucks.

The right wing party in Australia (a few elections ago) increased retirement age but with a "rolling date". Meaning they all get to retire on time with the earlier date but the later you were born the later your retirement age. They literally set their retirement age in stone then fucked younger generations on their way out. It's still currently rolling out, recently increased to 67 in 2023.

(In more ways than one bit this one is particularly obvious and idk how they got away with it).

It’s so odd how much hate pop figures get, from people whose apartments are filled with anime posters and figures

[-] otacon239@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

In general, I think it comes down to the fact that they all just look low effort. They’re formulaic, which to someone who puts out passionate art, it’s kind of just insulting.

And as much as I hate to say it, that’s all preference. I don’t personally think they’re “wrong” or “not art”. Just not very well done or original.

well and they'll all end up in landfill eventually.

"You don't like this thing, yet you do like this other, different thing that falls into a vaguely same broad category. Curious."

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

I'm not into anime but I definitely think Funko pops are hideous and not cute at all

Oh, and sad old folks:

(Sorry, the app I use limits images per posts. Devs are good people, so I gladly endure the inefficiency!)

There are many reasons to dislike the communist regimes in Eastern Europe, but these tenements are not it. Quite a lot of people prefer to buy these sorts of apartments over newer ones simply because they are built better. Keep in mind that those in these sorts of pictures haven't been properly maintained in years. They are 40-50 years old, it's normal for any building that has not been taken care of to look worn down - but if the owners of these apartments put in the effort to modernise their buildings, they are very comfortable. I live in one and it's great!

This is the kind of socialist hellscape the capitalist is protecting us from.

Socialist Hellscape

Edit: Dense mixed used urban development, biking to work, walking to your nearest weekly market, buying unprocessed food for groceries and common public area easily accessible by foot for old people where they can mix with other generations.

[-] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

All these pictures are from capitalist countries

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

Actually, this is what you're fighting for in Capitalism: Billionaire Yacht Billionaire Mansion

Not for yourself, though, rather for a few who add up to less than 0.0000375% of Humanity.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 2 weeks ago

Weren't they going to build a 5-mile wide boat that looked like a turtle. Where's that, I'm fighting for that.

[-] natecox@programming.dev 3 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, wait! I know this one!!

No, it isn’t.

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

First one looks okay to me, id love to have my own quiet home

Cars, yeah no, i don't like to drive

I don't get the funky pops and the old man houses, might as well complain about action figures and schools

[-] lnxtx@feddit.nl 1 points 2 weeks ago

Urban sprawl, car dependency, vinyl rubbish, famine pensions.

[-] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Look man, I'm all for criticisms of capitalism, but stuff like this ain't gonna cut it...

[-] FatCat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yes because communist countries have ellegant urban planning 🤡

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 weeks ago

If only there were more than these two dreary instantiations of differing economic frameworks, but as alas, I know only of these two pictures.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 0 points 2 weeks ago

That can literally be the US with roads 2 miles wide

[-] 96er4lyf3@lemy.lol 1 points 2 weeks ago

But at least I get funkopops

[-] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world -2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm curious. What would a "communist" utopia look like?

[-] return2ozma@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Why would you go immediately to communism?

Here you go: https://youtu.be/PaASqPnpq5Y

[-] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I would consider communism of some sort to be the ideal and the direction we should strive for. It doesn't have to be communism but I've always wondered what a purely stateless and classless society would look like. It's just hard for me to imagine, being the animals that we are, imbibing such a society
