Get rid of plastic straws! Save the environment!

Excuse me while me and my 27 friends l take separate jets to Europe for the weekend.

The banks are too big to fail! Gotta go e them money because they ran outta money because they were bad with money. Also, that overdraft fee that was actually a clerical error that was hard coded into our platform will cost you $250 because it's the 5th one this year.

something something trans people, cat food school, bathrooms, pedophilia. Idk some more buzzwords. Just don't look at me and my 27 friends while we all fly out separate jets back home before doing it all again.

And if you do look... ooga booga the gays!

Yeah, I hate this timeline.

Edit: fun fact! Clinton, Bush Jr, Trump, and Biden were all in high school at the same time.

Another fun fact. JFK was born only 7 years before Bush Sr. 7 US presidents in a row all born around the same time.

I mean, one of those is not like the others. I'll give you a hint...

It's JFK. JFK is not like the others.

[-] dandroid@dandroid.app 2 points 1 year ago

Well, obviously. If 7 people all had their birthdays within a few years of each other, but each person served as president 4-8 years after the previous person, naturally they will keep getting older and older. The earlier people in that group of 7 were younger when they were president than the later people in that group of 7. The point was that those later people were old AF.

[-] propaganja@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

What? lol, no, I just meant that JFK was generally a very good president and the others were largely shit.

I guess, if that's your opinion. I can't say I fully agree. I'm a huge fan of LBJ personally, despite him flubbing the Vietnam war. He cared deeply for educating the impoverished and racial minorities. He passed dozens of environmental laws. He also was responsible for a bunch of the beautification initiatives, which resulted in planting tons of trees. He was responsible for creating a ton of national parks. He even knew he fucked up the Vietnam war, and he decided he wasn't going to run for another term because of the decisions he made related to it. It's my opinion that he felt he didn't deserve the presidency anymore after making poor choices regarding Vietnam. Whatever the reason he had, it shows great emotional intelligence. And honestly, it makes me sad, because I feel like with 4 more years, he could have done so much more good for civil rights and the environment.

I also am a bit biased because I live in the city that he was from, so I get to enjoy the fruits of his and his wife's labor. All the trees they planted here are all grown and are gorgeous. I love how many parks we have here and how big they all are. And I can thank them for putting in the work, even though they knew they would not be the ones to benefit from it. It would be the future generations that would benefit.

You can! But you will pay takes after you left. Double the taxes for people who leave :/

Got bitched at by my new boss for taking my legally mandated break today. Gotta love it.

What was their justification?

[-] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 year ago

Welcome to Capitalism! 🙃🙃

[-] gobbling871@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

You know what the worst part is. We, The people let them do this to us.

[-] nautilus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

And a not insignificant amount of people beg for it. Which one is worse honestly?

[-] PeWu@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

I think it's inevitable. Whenever human invents a good thing, another human finds a way to circumvent that good thing into bad thing that profits them.

[-] Noodlez@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Okay a genuine question, what is the method to not let them do this to us? The legitimate only way I can think of is completely disconnecting from society, but this is near impossible because it's near impossible to find a place you can become self-sustainable, and it also takes a lot to even accrue the wealth to have the means to become self-sustainable, which means beimg a part of this society.

[-] PeWu@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I honestly don't find a solution to this corrupt world we live in. I hope someone legalizes suicide booths.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It’s sad this even has to be joked about, but knowing the rich they’ll share any immortality treatments, but only for the twisted reason to ensure there’s no escape.
