He’s a boomer and his brother is a small business owner. Their only hardships have come from petty disputes with the township over signage. This same guy, without any irony, said that the only unions we still need anymore are teacher’s unions. Surprised that bootlicker didn’t include police unions.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you public schools teach liberalism. This happened while the science teachers would tiptoe around outright saying that climate change was real.

Bet the toilet is broken. If the float catches something, it will continuously fill and drain.

My highschool civics teacher, who once told the class that everyone becomes more conservative with age and income, will be pinning this to the wall of the classroom.

You’re piloting drones from those cubicles.

The Chinese have glass hearts. You can see it whenever Taiwan gets mentioned as an independent nation.

I actually separate my burnables and compost the ashes, but I understand that most people can’t diy that. I think Japan has separate receptacles for burnables.

This is one bin with one volume inside. The lid might have been designed for a bin with two separate volumes inside and some worker who doesn’t care put it in the wrong bin or an artist made the lid to protest ineffective, green washed recycling efforts.

At the very least, paper is renewable and biodegradable.
- Comment on Important life choices 1 week ago:
Only the metal should be pulled out. Plastic recycling is a scam invented by the bottling companies and there’s not a single plastic bottle that couldn’t be replaced by paper or aluminum. Even the plastic lines cardboard cartons use less plastic overall.

Bought it used long, long after Ford had died and there’s no obvious connections anymore.
Trying to compare the regular, everyday villainy of modern Ford Motor Company to Musk’s cartoon super villainy seems like something a Tesla owner would say as a coping mechanism.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 1 week ago:
My friends don’t need encouragement and are grown adults. I don’t tell other people how to live.
Even if they don’t end up coming back, having a bit of passive income from renting out their house will help the with the move.

The only exceptions I can think of are people renting out the other side of their two family house, people living outside their country for a few years, or farmers renting out houses that were already in their property.
None of these started as investments, but rather unique circumstances. I have some queer friends who are moving out of the country for a few years because of Trump, but don’t want to commit to immigration quite yet.

For a movie you haven’t seen yet, it’s still kinda weird.

On the one hand, at least it happened in LA. On the other hand, too bad you’re in LA

Which is a comic book fantasy. It’s a nice story for kids, but doesn’t hold up to reality and only further vilify environmentalists.

hmm… Notice that Musk didn’t say it’s wrong to kill a person. Only CEOs.

Jury nullification. If you’re called for jury duty, DO NOT LET THEM KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS WHEN INTERVIEWING.

I really wondering if the detectives in charge of the investigation are bring their A-game or if maybe they have a loved one who was denied coverage.
- Comment on You don't need to answer this 2 weeks ago:
I think they’re talking about Cruella, a movie where the “heroine” would eventually go on to want to kill and skin puppies. There’s also Maleficent, but I don’t know enough about that one to comment.
I also think there’s a lot of Hollywood heroes that are really villains and the movie is just reflecting the author’s fucked up world view. The Kingsman is a good example. Can we stop writing environmentalists as villains?
In a lot of stories, due process isn’t something that comes up because of time constants and scope of the villain’s ambitions, but there’s something wrong in the writer’s room for The Flash TV series. Agents of Shield would eventually deal with super nazis and alien invaders, but Flash was dealing with bank robbers and locking them up in their secret prison.
- Comment on Funny how uniting this is somehow 2 weeks ago:
I disagree. There might be enough room for plausible deniability, but that’s by design. I do not trust the media enough not to take the side of the rich.
- Comment on Funny how uniting this is somehow 2 weeks ago:
Manufactured Consent isn’t lying. It’s selectively telling the truth either by omitting certain facts or reframing them. Here, it’s omitting what those words are referring to.
- Comment on I get it, but you're both part of a bigger problem. 2 weeks ago:
Low effort content and padding the presentation out to maximize ads. I use to automatically discard videos that were around 11 minutes long before signaled that it was optimized for ads, the YouTube changed their policy at some point.
