Okay, well maybe don’t stare at the shit coming out of a dog’s asshole, for other reasons.
- Comment on Gotta make sure your watching its back 1 week ago:
You’re supposed to look away. They’re embarrassed that you’re for some reason watching the poop come out. Don’t do that.

Eh, depends.

Oh yeah, Kazakhstan. One of the heaviest hitters on the world stage. Please return to facebook.

Didn’t some guy publicly call him AIPAC Shakur?

Remind me which major country was the least affected by the Great Depression. ☭
- Comment on Why is gun violence lower in Switzerland than in the US? 2 weeks ago:
It’s a bunch of reasons, but the one that we can actually do something about is the social democratic safety nets. We have way fewer in the US and that causes rampant anxiety, which leads to violence. Switzerland’s population isn’t on the brink of snapping, so they tend not to shoot each other.

Yes. That Somali AK is undoubtedly full auto and the gobermint won’t let me buy one commercially because apparently we live in soviet russia… which is where AKs come from.
Don’t hassle me about this.

Ol’ one-titty Yumi.
- Comment on "If you can't afford to tip 40%, then don't eat out" 1 month ago:
Votes don’t equate to real power. Huge amounts of money and resources, like we see everyday in the news, are what move the needle. The only counter to that is mobilized political outrage. Overwhelming numbers of people making the economy sputter. Otherwise, we can expect more of what we have now.
But yeah, a higher min wage is a good step forward.
- Comment on "If you can't afford to tip 40%, then don't eat out" 1 month ago:
Since no one believes in unions and they’ve been legislatively kneecapped, social pressure to pay them tends to fall on the consumer. It’s not ideal, but such is the economy we live in.
Have you tried blaming someone with power?

Doing well? They’re getting by like the rest of us. Why would they do that job if they weren’t being paid for it?
- Comment on "If you can't afford to tip 40%, then don't eat out" 1 month ago:
A lot of people in the comments are remarking on the tip culture in America. Friendly reminder that it’s not the culture that necessitates tipping here. We have a tipping economy when it comes to a lot of service work. $2.13 is the minimum wage for servers in the states. This is less than what could rightfully be called a starvation wage, so tipping is a social necessity. You might think that’s crazy and we should change it, and you would be correct.

I live in the states and I’d like to swap with this guy for a trial period. I’ll try partying and busting for a month while he kicks it in the no fun country where the rent is $1200/month+ and having a good looking ass is considered an actual commodity that must hit the market ASAP.
- Comment on Recent conversations between Dawkins and sentient chat-bot Claudia (Claude) 2 months ago:
His support for invading Iraq was pretty bad.

This is sleight of hand, yall. Don’t follow any of this.
- Comment on Spooooookyyyyy Scaaaaaaaarrryyyy 2 months ago:
Is this meant to suggest that reactionaries aren’t work-shy as hell? That would be a lie. They all want some bullshit media career as much as any liberal.
- Comment on You can only joke about things that don't bother MMEEEEEE 2 months ago:
So sick of hearing about CK. How could anyone listen to him? He was always talking out the side of his neck.
- Comment on Anon goes back to Windows 10 2 months ago:
It’s a Debian fork with the option not to use systemd. I’ve been using it for months without a single crash. Everything starts up quick. I like it. Any linux without systemd is worth a shot, if you like fast and stable.
- Comment on Anon goes back to Windows 10 2 months ago:
Imagine if this guy took a crack at MX.
- Comment on Deal with it, Libby. 2 months ago:
Yeah, but most Trump sign houses are suburban McMansions and historic urban estates. Like we keep saying, the die hard MAGA people are thoroughly bourgeois and have been all their lives.
- Comment on Anon sacrifices for the family 3 months ago:
True, there’s no reason to have everyone working at the level of automation we’ve reached, but some people think it’s the 1950s or something.
- Comment on Anon sacrifices for the family 3 months ago:
If I had to guess, it’s probably because being a NEET is depressing state of being. No direction or control over your life and you’re at the whims of whatever happens to your family, economically. People with nothing to look forward to tend to wig out over petty shit like one less tendie.
- Comment on School of hard knocks 3 months ago:
The carrot thing isn’t totally untrue, but it’s a bit more complex. If you’re skilled in a trade, you probably have more of a chance of not being financially uprooted than someone with a white collar degree whose job will be AI’d in the next 5 years. That said, to make decent money in a trade, it helps a lot to have a degree from a trade school.
If you want a job as a radiology tech, what hospital is giving them out with no degree?
- Comment on The Art of Surrender 3 months ago:
Pretty good, but the Dems are equally rudderless and won’t prosecute, just like last time.

I wanna jump her beans.
