God, I hate the taste of that drink

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 14 points 1 week ago

It should be illegal if you ask me, at least past a certain amount

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'd like to be the one preparing that drink for once. Do nothing and get paid sounds great.

now in new flavors!

  • high interest mortgage
  • medical debt
  • childcare costs
  • cost-of-living increases

If you work really hard, maybe you can fly 90 of your best rich buds to your wedding to a plastic bimbo in Venice too!

yeah, ain't no way I'm working for 30 years. I don't know what I'll do but it's not working.

[–] sad_detective_man@leminal.space 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

~~30~~ yeah try 50, muchacho. or do you live somewhere sane or something?

[–] underscores@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah, hard pass on that. I think I'd retire early and then jump off a bridge once the funds run out.

that's about where I'm at now. take a wild guess why American capitalists are so hung up about increasing birth rates and cutting our health care

Good luck to you

I hope your country provides good social support and/or that your bets and investments come good

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Save up your money and then move to a low CoL country that’s friendly to foreigners.

[–] underscores@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Oh yeah, I don't plan to spend my savings on 2k rent a month

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

You could spend those thirty years italicizing things.

You triggered my trap card: Oppositional defiance! Not only does that not energize me, it makes me angry and stubborn!

do humans necessarily need to be autistic to reject the bad state of affairs capitalism has put us into?

thats kinda sad. yall need to rely on just 1% of the population on having the perception to solve that shit for you?

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But 9 out of 10 Lemmy armchair experts agree everyone is autistic and a lil' bit gay.

also tankie nerds

I drink this everyday, but now I feel even more tired and broke

FUD keeps me going.
