You, my friend, have to read up on super PACs

Oh, we could probably create giant trees with selective breeding and gene editing. But those trees would still need hundreds of years to grow (and that’s a good thing, since it would store CO2 while growing) and if there are problems with the gene editing we would only notice after decades.

I don’t have any ravens and I like to keep both eyes. Other than that and a few pounds too much I am well on my way to look like this

I would be much less against pro-life if the movement would focus on better care for would-be-mothers, easier adoption and better oversight, financial support for girls who give up their children, increasing adoption numbers, better sex ed, etc. instead of banning abortions.

They are exclusively focusing on the worst way to reduce abortions.

It’s the poster child of vapid consumerism. Pseudo-deep “words of wisdom” often bought by the most shallow people you can think of.

It’s the battle cry of the suburban Karen, the mantra of the soccer mom.

Often combined with the consumption of rigorous amounts of wine and sings declaring how hilarious this socially accepted alcoholism is.

Everybody wants to rule the world in my ass

I miss LAN parties… Duke Nukem 3D, Doom, CS, Diablo, Alien vs Predator 2, Quake and the successors of those games. Good times. Online is nice and all, but nothing compares to playing the night away with friends in one room

This opening move is called “The Russian Statesman”. Very traditional.

Even if done “right” privatization is the wrong choice for a lot of things. Like everything that should be a service for all citizens: postal service, health care, water, electricity, …

When greed is introduced into these services people will suffer for it. Just look at all the examples of privatizations and show me where the outcome was positive for the people.

Better then Trump is a low bar and you know it.

No one sane said that he was a bad president (although he could have been a lot better) just that he is too old for the job.

I would say that anyone younger and progressive would do better than him.

Bernie would have won (according to polls) if the DNC hadn’t sabotaged him at every turn. Too polarizing? No, just too left for the Democrats.

Well, the only thing that could reasonably help us would be to demolish the 1% and the corrupt politicians who support them. And yes, that would include an armed uprising.

Not that that I see that happening unless it gets much worse. We still have (some) bread and games left to pacify the masses.

With a sigh he cleans the up the tally for the 7th period. “Can’t call it near death anymore”

Oh yes. The company where I work at does these performance reviews: doing 100% gives you a ‘C’ (as a grade). I do everything that is expected from me without anything to complain about? Yeah, that’s not good enough.

Fuck that.

There is the silent complaint that you could do more… Give up your spare time for your work. Work yourself tired and burn out for your company! That’s what they want to see.

I’m looking for a new job while I still work there.

Depends on the job, but I think more like 5 figures. Still enough to live comfortably, but of course not enough for these greedy fucks. The reason so many are millionaires is not their salaries.

Outrage bait to promote their shitty NFT game.

Okay, I am convinced: from now on I am completely against the marriage of same pole magnets!

AI is a tool that makes us X% more productive (X is still debatable and bound to change)

But instead of making our job X% easier or let us earn X% more, work X% less, corporations are hellbent to fire X% of the workforce because that makes the most money.
