And a third woman alleged that Musk asked her several times to have his children; she refused. He then denied her a raise and complained about her performance.

A 2022 story reported that a flight attendant on Musk’s private jet said he exposed himself and offered “to buy her a horse in exchange for an erotic massage,”

Actually, this is pretty much verbatim what I expected, what a clickbait title smh.

One of the most destructive lies that was sold to the American public was that the stock market = economy. Line goes up means good. Even when you're homeless, hungry, and sick.

Science does, in fact, have questions that could never be answered. In his case it's "who asked?".

In Soviet countries there was a tradition to keep the remotes in their original packaging or a fitting plastic bag. They work almost the same, and this prevented the remote from getting nasty over time, or breaking apart all over the place when dropped.

In Russia between 1990 and 1994 male life expectancy at birth dropped from 63.8 to 57.6 years. Belarus, Ukraine and the Baltics experienced a similar decline. Suicides accounted for 16% of that decrease. Good times.

You make a good argument, but have you considered OCTOBER 7?

There are a lot of reasons why people in this community would dislike your message. But on the very fundamental level you're correct, voting for the less reactionary party is better. As you said "it's a two party system", but keep in mind that these parties are not two polar opposites that people have to split between. On the contrary, in most regards they're protecting the same interests, which are never your average American's. Of the things you mentioned would suffer under Trump here is what democrats did:

  • Abortion is illegal in 14 states and limited in many more

  • Trans rights are being repealed in multiple states, Florida being the leader in inhumane treatment of genderqueer people

  • Slavery is legal for prisoners (13th amendment), and prisons are at their most populated right now

  • Child labor protections are being rolled back and now we have tweens working nights in slaughterhouses

  • Worker strikes have been discouraged and killed

  • After the Uvalde shooting basically nothing was done about gun accessibility or cops' response model

  • Immigration and environmental policies are pretty much carbon copy of Trump's - more fracking, willow project, title 42 staying on for years, current proposals for metering the border

  • White nationalist rallies and general rhetoric are protected under the discrimination laws, yet a house representative gets an official reprimand for voicing her discontent with genocidal actions of Israel

American politics normally have a ratchet effect. GOP moves the country to the right, and stop Dems from any leftwing momentum. But Biden is straight up moving everything to the right himself. So either way you're voting against the things that you mentioned you care about.

Same. Don't sully the beautiful and working maglev trains with that garbage scam that killed any HSR hopes for millions of Californians.

This is just a random word cloud of daily wire's talking points.

This image further proves that the main difference between anarchists and commies is showering habits.

When a mf drops the most antisemitic tweets talking about anti-white hatred, and then says he couldn't shoot a cop in a game. The boot is literally all the way down his throat, and he's so proud of it.

The feelings you described are pretty much a textbook definition of depression. I would strongly suggest seeing a psychiatrist and basically showing them this post. Not only because there are many options of effective medication that exist today, but also because depression is often comorbid with other mental conditions.

The longer you exist in this state, the harder it becomes to come out of it on your own. Mental health professionals exist specifically to help and guide you through it.
