Canadian here: wana be friends, mate?

That’s a great deal - most people would agree to trade their phone for a single bullet

Look! They’re moving!

No, no, America. They escaped a nasty fence dispute with a deranged neighbor.

You’re the one still stuck in the abusive relationship, unfortunately.

Lots of love from the north. Good luck.

That’s pretty shitty advice, though

I wish i could push back on that by saying no one would be dumb enough to make that argument non satirically, but…

You have to be careful with that logic, or born again right wing christian groups will go nuts. Lemme explain.

If

Christ is everywhere

Then

Christ is in the large Hadron collider.

And if

[stuff] inside the collider becomes anti-[stuff]

Then:

–> The LHC creates the Antichrist.

I need a rhyme to day how much i like this guy, basically as the poetic counterpart to “I do not like that man Ted Cruz”

Maybe something like:

i do like that Graham Planter

i do like his thoughtful banter

i do like his progressive views

i like seeing him on the news

i do like him fighting ICE

And telling them to fuck off twice

i do like him taxing wealth

i do like him fighting for health

I like that he thinks billionaires

Should all, of course, pay their fair share

I do hope that he doesn’t quit

Cuz that man Planter gives a shit

What’s a NEET?

Tell him Puerto Rico is for sale, nobody tell him it’s already part of the US, and then use the money from the “sale” to fix the electrical grid

Did it ever actually have a true genuine focus on working people?

I used to call that sound “the clicking of death” whenever i used to hear it from an old HDD…

It’s unlikely, but do not underestimate the far right’s ability to be hoodwinked and hateful, and the oligarchs’ relentlessness when it comes to making sure the world continues to go to shits…

If the consequence of wrongdoing is a cost, it’s not a deterrent, it’s a line item in the business case.

Except that the 1$ i give. I can imagine using it, just like i can imagine using the other 999$.

Billionaires have more money than they can imagine using, it’s completely insane

I prefer the “having 10,000$ is one step on the stairs” image.

Most people will never be on the first step, apart from people in industrialized countries and even then, not everyone.

A millionaire will be about 100 steps up, or about 4 floors. Ah ha! Look at you all small down there from my 4th floor vantage point!

Then a billionaire, in that same analogy, is 100,000 steps up, or 11 miles, somewhere in the fucking stratosphere. Think they can see the difference between you and the millionaire from up there?

Musk, at 680,000,000,000$? He’s passed the fucking ISS, 750 miles from the Earth, basically wealth stops having any kind of meaning or human scale.

Interesting!! Good illustration of my point, I think… Basically yeah, he created the circumstances needed to funnel into his own account basically everything that would have been the whole secondary market for games?

The thing with having a billion dollars is that you don’t earn it, you divert part of the economy of a given sector into your wallet. I don’t know whether Gabe did this dishonestly, but clearly part of the whole gaming industry lands in his bank account… In his case, maybe the biggest gap is a gap of taxation…

So they’re wearing shirts with which they self identify as low iq now? Are they getting self aware? Before ai? That’s a surprise…

Or is it a black shirt with low iq, basically fully bringing out in the open the thinly veiled dog whistle of trump using the term whenever he’s talking about women of color?

Yeah more that, i think

Great, that’s all we need. News of Trump being dead then miraculously being alive on Easter. No way the wacko nut jobs that see him as the new incarnation of Christ don’t wet themselves and see this as proof right? 🙄
