I played bar trivia last week, and the trivia asker guy (is there a word for this?) came up to our group after to talk cause we had a lot of wrong but funny answers. Somehow I just turned into him just explaining everything about RFK to us for like 10 minutes. He finally revealed that he had heard it all on the Robert Evans fed podcast.
Always so weird to find a podcast listener irl. I should have told him about TrueAnon.
I mean I can go on Grindr and have 30 dms from middle aged Republicans in an hour. Half of them will call me crossdresser or femboy. Transphobia absolutely does not preclude exploitation or fetishization.
She's always been a lib. She just gets a lot of hate because most leftists only support trans people because they think we're politically reliable
I wasn't expecting half of the comments to be complaining that women don't have to to fight lol. If you think of yourself as a based and trad conservative or whatever and you're made that women aren't fighting in wars I think you've gotten kind of mixed up.
The American economy is built in a very specific way to make certain things cheap and certain things very expensive. The cheap things are gas, toys, commodities, clothes, unhealthy food. The expensive things are education, good food, healthcare, and, in certain areas, housing. That means there are a ton of Americans who live extremely precarious lives, where losing their job would be the end, but they still have a higher level of material comfort than many people would in other countries.
The other thing about the American economy is that wealth is extremely biased towards older people. For a long time, the system was built around normal working class people buying a house, and building wealth through that. As long as housing prices went up at a controlled rate, everybody slowly got richer. Now, older people own most of the houses. Like I grew up in a small town that was sort of the ideal American dream neighborhood. There were a bunch of other kids on my street, including some good friends. We rode the bus together and spent the weekends hanging out in my friend's loft. Now, when I go back there, there's like one family with kids on the street, and everyone else is a retired couple in a huge house that they don't really need. They have no particular incentive to move out, because it would be expensive and they're comfortable.
So if you're a younger person without in-demand education you really are extremely poor. 5k could really improve your quality of life by letting you get some dental work or something. Although the unemployment rate is low right now, companies are able to collude to some degree to keep entry level jobs precarious.
whoa were you the first Kissinger is Dead post on hexbear?
This is wonderful news, except it also fucking sucks because now we will have to hear liberals valorize and glorify him for the next couple of weeks.
Just play Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic instead. If that game was slightly more approachable it would improve over CS in every possible way.
Lol yeah the whole entryism framing is so silly. Like the author says it's a bad thing when his party gains new members unless they completely agree with some old socdems?
yeah but ๐โโฌ or ๐?
Most of his fans have never really read his more academic works (like the one with the grandma sex dream). So, I guess they like his vibe. But his vibe is weepy alcoholic. What's so great about that?
Simple solution: allow defederation from single communities and block 196 for everyone, because the memes there have never been anything but incredibly cringe.
This article is an analysis of a recent global event, speculation of the probable cause, and some discussion of the broader implications. It makes perfect sense to be in world news.
You seem to have had a strong emotional reaction to the suggestion that the US might have helped Israel carry out a particular ttack on another country. We're you aware that this happens literally every day?
