The sun chips probably cost extra in the above pic. Going to school in the aughts it looked like this where I lived, decent school district.

Just fyi, this isn't even close to an exaggeration. Seems like a high-end representation of school lunches in America from my experience in school

eh the wave of leftist discourse that broke into popularity we're currently still riding started as irony posting

I don't think that happens here, because ideological neo liberalism is a hell of a stance to have, but snarky irony poisoned stuff used to be our bread and butter too

if only they'd make a nonwoke train then all American patriots would ride it, for generations, and chant Trump's name

this happens at bars a lot around me lol

that could probably boil down what I'm trying to say actually to "what the hell is happening".

We are in the "here there be monsters" stage of the rise of fascism I believe, it's harder and harder to predict

as a being living in material reality I believe this might be a non uncommon sentiment. Thank you for acknowledging the garbage

you understand I'm saying that in comparison to the bar that the Dems have set right? I've made that as clear as I possibly can. I.e. He is an awful person and a shit president and somehow still whipping Democrats at even this

read what im saying by what the words are and do not add what you imagine I mean please

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

yeah i mostly agree with this. it is partially what i'm talking about. bibi saw trump as ok here's someone i can reasonably say "he talked me into it" to, whereas with biden and harris, who kept shouting for israel to kill all Palestinians, there isn't a way to not look weak.

this is why the democrats suck so fucking bad

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago (6 children)

zero chance afghanistan withdrawal happens without that initial push under trump lol, we saw what biden was about.

like i said i'm waiting to see what happens with this ceasefire, but it's suddenly under discussion whereas before, under biden as well as the potential harris, it just wasn't happening

i'm not saying trump is good, i'm saying the democrats are evil

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

i mean in this case the difference between biden as an individual and trump are pretty night and day. i get that in the grand scheme, but i'm talking specifically under a microscope here, which should be pretty obvious considering i'm about to hand it to trump

 

Add getting the Trump bucks during the initial COVID waves and I don't know what else to say than he's materially the best president weve had in my life.

I mean it really shows how useless and evil the Democrats are more than anything. It's fucking wild

(Obviously it's not over yet, not getting ahead of myself, but this is the most progress we've seen by a long shot)

edit: folks it should be obvious i dont think he is doing this as a good thing or that it's not going to be a double edged sword. i'm just saying look at biden and compare.

 

Anyone keeping up with this want to explain what's happening/if anything is happening lol

 
 

the homogenization of the US by these chain companies is disgusting. they show up like parasites to any town once they reach some arbitrary population density and suck up business that should be going to locally owned operations. completely destroys the culture. 90% of american towns are just a strip of gas stations and the same fast food chains

hyper local chains are still kinda cool though. shit that only exists around cities and their burbs. still has local flavor and culture, so they get a pass thus the 100 mile radius limit.

Spent the last two years basically wasted. Surprisingly have moved up a lot in my life in that time, something to be said about the functional alcoholic.

I'm making this post because I feel like fucking hell, and I'm tired and it's like every good feeling has been replaced by dog shit.

But I'm not like craving booze right now and so I guess I'm sort of not dependent on it at the moment. I've been active too, going to shows and parties and such. They've been dramatically less fun, but at least I'm not holed up and away from society like every other time I've tried to get off the sauce.

That's nifty.

Probably will have a drink sometime soon, whatever. Just nice to prove I don't actually HAVE to drink I guess.

 

The recount happens; Kamala wins.

 

The Republican family members are now using the term climate change as you're supposed to and suggesting that we need to act.

They are not the "I believe the Jews control the weather" level of right wing, just the sort of normal majority of the base right wing. I.e. fox news enjoyers.

Take this news as you will, but I've spoken to multiple and they all seem to be recognizing the pattern

Trump's out of juice, my boys dry as hell. Kamala is off the xannies and just sounds like a bush era right winger.

No juice. No sauce.

There's nothing for me on this one anymore. Going to write in Xi on election day and be done with it

 

Sort of messed up my budgeting and a bill just went through that screwed me lol. Can pay you back this coming Saturday. Cash app or Venmo works, I'll just link them here:
