- Comment on I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in? 2 days ago:
I know “America Bad” is popular on the Internet but it’s not always true. The ADA was among the first laws worldwide to treat disability rights as full civil rights across nearly all areas of public life, including employment, private businesses, public spaces, and transportation, and it went on to inspire other countries to pass similar sweeping laws. Also worth noting it was signed into law by a Republican weirdly enough. Not sure that would happen today.
If you want to say that the broader social safety net including healthcare in America sucks though, and by extension harms disabled people, I can’t really argue with that. But the ADA is excellent and groundbreaking.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is legitimately the best in the world and other first world countries wish they treated disabled people as well as America

The apostrophe’s true purpose is to let you know there’s about to be an S at the end of a word
- Comment on Exclusive Update On The ‘Star Trek: Year One’ Series Pitch And Status Of The ‘Strange New Worlds’ Sets 1 week ago:
When I was younger and TNG was coming out, I thought “oh wow this is so cool, every 20 years we go another 100 years into the future of Star Trek!” And here we are almost 40 years later, still rehashing the same characters from the same eras over and over. The only breath of fresh air is the last bit of Discovery and Starfleet Academy. Give me a flagship show set in the 26th century or a show about the Temporal Cold War. Something new!

Madoff only went to prison because he stole from rich people. Stealing from regular people is basic business practice

Haven’t sorted laundry in like 20 years at least. If I get a brand new pair of jeans or something like that I’ll separate it for a load or two but that’s it.

Oh yes, “trees of the same species” is the key piece of missing information in the meme

Has no one ever been in a forest before? Trees 100% grow all up into each other all the time. They compete for sunlight and try to choke each other out by design. These pictures honestly don’t look real

In Luke, Jesus tells his followers to sell off some of their clothes to buy weapons so this is not totally out of the realm of possibility

Then it’s fake in a way that The Old Man and the Sea is fake in that it’s a story that reflects on what it’s like to be human
- Comment on When you know your boss is an insane moron 1 month ago:
I had a corporate job where I never interacted with customers and I was salaried and my boss would still keep Teams up on his computer all the time and come and check in on my cubicle if I wasn’t showing available on Teams exactly at 7:30 in the morning. I got lectured once for showing up at 7:35. Not late to any meetings, not late on “deliverables”, etc. Just not “professional” enough for him. I have no doubt believing this post.
