It's wild how comfortable the capital class has gotten with discounting the lives of the workers whose necks they stand on to live their lives of luxury. They used to at least pretend to care. They didn't, but they knew they had to pay lip service to it.

In most online spaces if you advocated for the changes to their lives they openly work for every day to implement on us in order to squeeze an extra penny out of our lives, you'd risk a ban.

I genuinely don't understand the complacency, or why the social contract is so manipulable by euphemism. They might as well be stabbing us, but it is apparently okay to do so as long as they don't call it that.

I think it resonates with people so hard because from him, I don't think it was just an empty platitude. If you've never seen it, this would take about 7 minutes to watch and would demonstrate this, I think.

Right. And the article is attempting to provide an explanation in the hopes of shifting what readers see as fit regarding their media consumption.

Dr Mike did an episode with anti vaxxers actually. That is about how it went, but he's too kind to go for the dunks.

I honestly don't know how these fuckers have the consent of the governed anymore. Just about any of them get Luigi'd I think it would be cheered on just like the last example.

Bet it'll benefit the richest among us by yet again making things worse for everyone else though. So there's that.

Seems like a good reason TO go. I'm happy to go lots of places I know either of those fucks won't be at.

 

Fun decision that makes a lot of sense, right? Christmas for my family was a lot of gift card "tell me what you used it for" sort of gifts, which l generally prefer these days.

I have enough to get an electronic drum set I could learn the drums on without annoying the hell out of everyone around me (I could use a headset with them). I do want to learn drums some day, but just for fun. There's no real goal outside if it looking fun to do.

The quality of pressure washer I would want to use would cost about the same as the drum kit and I cannot justify getting booth right now. I have used pressure washers before and I quite enjoy it. Someday I might even consider a cleaning business, so seeing if the magic grows or fades with a quality unit would be helpful.

I lean towards the later just because I don't know that I have the room for a drum kit right now. Thoughts, opinions?
