1·11 hours agoI’m talking about a charity. After Trump’s gone.
Like you pay $50. Which goes to charity. And then they let you go at it for 5 min with a sledge hammer.
There have been other charities like this in the past.

2·11 hours agoYeah I’m pretty sure they intentionally push hate on immigrants to further exploit immigrants.
No one will hire you because you are a foreigner? Not to worry friends. This meat packing plant will pay you $4 an hour for 12 hr shifts.
Oh the meat packing plant gets caught hiring illegals.
That’s deportation for the workers. Slap on the wrist for the company that just made millions from the cheap labor.
They don’t want the workers to have legal status. Or rights. They want them scared and desperate.
That way they can pay them nothing. Put them in danger. Treat them like shit. And no one will call OSHA on them. No one will file a lawsuit.

1·11 hours agoI think if you saw what I saw you would be sure it’s bots. They repeat the exact same comment. They all post at the same time in batches.
For instance. They post comments usually right after the post is made and the next hour or so. Then never again.
Unlike other people who also show higher comments within the first few hours of a post going up but then still trickle in for a few days.
There are unusual patterns that stand out like that.

Humans are safest, healthiest, and happiest when we live in harmony and help each other.
We are highly social. We thrive when we work with each other.

14·1 day agoIt was in a pen.
They shouldn’t have been in the pen anyway. Trespassing without a warrant.
Also. Who tf gets in a random pen on a farm?
You don’t know what’s in there.
Could be a bull out where you can’t see. Or a moose. Emus. I mean. It’s just plain stupid.

19·1 day agoI’m old enough to remember when they tore down the berlin wall. I was pretty young but I recall seeing it on mtv. And regular people getting in on the action with sledge hammers and whatever.
I hope they just let us have a go at that fucking arch. Or after it’s knocked down then let us have a go at it.
Could do it for charity. $50 for 5 min with a sledge hammer. Proceeds go to ice murder victims families.

6·1 day agoRefugees are our fault. Our own countries have destabilized theirs.
Pumped in weapons. Incited political violence for their own gains.
And then get all mad when the civilians want to leave to be somewhere safer.
Maybe if our countries stopped all the b.s of meddling in other countries affairs we wouldn’t have to take in a bunch of people trying to find a better life.
No one leaves their life and home for small reasons. These people fear for their lives.

1·1 day agoI think you are using the word exploited wrong.
Exploitation means using desperation in people to force them into agreeing to do low paying work or other desperate acts.
The U.S, the EU, and Canada are largely responsible for destabilizing many other countries and inciting civil wars and genocides.
When civilian people from those countries, people who have no responsibility for the state of their home countries, attempt to leave to find a better life. You say they are exploiting the countries they move to.
It’s those same countries who made the immigrants home country inhospitable.
The amount of money spent on welfare is pennies compared to money spent on weapons and gifts of money to Israel. And all the tax cuts and tax loop holes they keep giving to billionaires who hoard wealth.
Investing in people helps them get out of poverty and give back.
Some times those investments take a generation to show the benefits. But it’s there.
That said, it’s important that welfare money is spent in ways to help people. Job training. Housing. Food. Education. And it’s balanced so that it’s not a better living to stay on it.
Like in the U.S. If you are on disability welfare. Let’s say you get $1000 a month. This is not a living wage. So you get a part time job. You can’t work full time because of your disability but maybe you could do 20 hrs a week. But if you do, you lose your disability welfare.
You won’t make more working 20 hrs a week than the welfare check. And you would also lose health insurance.
So this discourages people from working who could work part time.
This is a flaw with the system. Not the people who are forced to play by the rules and choose the best option.
Likewise. You can’t hold it against people fleeing from an inhospitable country , that your country had a hand in making inhospitable, to go somewhere they have the best chance of making it in.

1·2 days agoThere are 10 maga comments for every 1 normal person on Facebook. Which means they have to be bots and sock puppets.
I try to remind people of this.
The people who say the worst shit like “renee deserve to get shot cause she didn’t listen”. I really don’t think there are very many people like that.
They exist. But they are small in numbers. Yet you constantly see huge numbers of comments along those lines any time someone is harmed or killed by ice.

2·2 days agoWhen I say Casual small talk conversations I mean with non-friend co workers. Cashier’s, barista. Someone in an elevator with you, Etc.
It’s definitely considered rude to bring up religion or politics with random people in casual small talk conversations.
Typically the weather is a go-to topic for such situations if small talk is needed.

That’s the box.
"Handcrafted from solid pine wood, finished with beeswax oil, lined in deep green velvet, and fitted with a faux gator-skin leather carrying strap with gold hardware,” the listing adds, “each box features custom engraved details and is exclusively numbered 1/500, making this an essential piece of art for the hive.”
Fyi. Pine wood is like the cheapest wood that exists.
Secondly. It uses pleather labeled as “faux leather”. Aka vinyl.Engraved with a cnc machine.
Looks glued together.
Wow. If you want a fancy box buy one from an artisan off Etsy or in real life or something.









I have a feeling that these companies will intentionally try to push low quality content to users who have turned it off, to motivate them to turn it back on.
Cause that’s just the way these fuckers are.
