And that statement is stupid as fucking shit.

I get where you're coming from but wanting an option other than corporate politicians is very different from willingly electing your last president as a childish incompetent dictator.

I think there's a video of incel Nick Fuentes saying that because plenty of gay men have had sex with women and he's still a virgin, having sex with a woman is gay. That's pretty damn close to this.

Ugh, living in a forest like that sounds idyllic

Omg, I hadn't thought of that. Social security is taxed from income, American wages have been stagnant since the 70s.

..but capitalism is so good, things only get better!!! The market is too regulated, is the problem

That's the irony.

But Density means communism to them so they're suddenly fine with regulations and taxes that prop up an unsustainable suburban ponzi scheme because that's the lie sold about the American Dream.

When they see how unaffordable housing has become they say, "good, my house is more expensive."

The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury is a book of short stories that are great. I really like the rain and he has a story called The Long Rain which I read a lot. He has a few in there that are actually really spooky though.

The Marionette's Inc was just taken and adapted into a loosely based episode in the last season of Black Mirror (Beyond The Sea)! They're very very different, but it's the same concept applied differently and the book itself shows up in the episode.

Yeah. It's the usual nonsense habits of people that they will defend to their dying breath

True! Getting rid of these AirBnBs probably doesn't hurt things though. Now they might actually get a long-term resident.

This started when we lost swappable batteries and it never stopped. Will never get over it either.
