Had a Trump supporter in my cab last night, said some shit about Trump being a peaceful president. I replied “tell that to the Iranians”

Guy turns on a dime, starts ranting about how we need to randomly bomb other countries in order to “play the game of empires”. I say we shouldn’t play any game that kills millions of people.

I think I genuinely caused him to BSOD when I said that Iran has every legal and moral right to pursue a nuclear weapon for deterrence reasons, because America and Israel are the most dangerous and aggressive countries on the planet and it isn’t even close. After that he got totally incoherent.

The ride was only like 3 minutes so it didn’t really have enough time to get out of control. I dream of someday getting a ride with a chud who crosses the line and I get to kick their ass out of my cab on the side of the highway but that hasn’t happened yet.

The year is 4566 CE. Representatives from China and America meet to discuss trade and diplomacy, and mark the beginning of their discussions by ceremonially agreeing to “extend the tariff deadline.” This ritual has marked every diplomatic meeting between the two civilizations, encompassing multiple states since time immemorial. Why the two countries do this is debated among scholars and historians, but the origin of the ritual is ultimately unknown.

Political Satire just died for real. Tom Lehrer dead at 97

Tfw target has more security goons standing by the door than they have checkstands open. Really lays out their priorities

swirling wine around glass You know in France, they call death “the big cum”

“The walls are closing in on the trump admin” like obviously this time feels a bit different with half his base pissed but i have almost zero doubt he’ll wriggle his way out of this one

The bottle of vanilla at my work claims in its label to have 300 FLAVOR NOTES. First off, too fucking many. Too many notes. That is fretless flavor. I cant even think of 300 flavors as a longtime cook, and for vanilla extract that’s 299 too many. If your vanilla tastes like 300 things, you fucked it up. That’s not something to brag about. That absurdity notwithstanding, I just hate the pretentiousness of saying ‘flavor notes’ or worse ‘flavor profile’. Its cop talk for fucking ‘flavor’. Just say flavor, the extra words are useless

I’m sure someone way smarter than me pointed this out, but is it just me or is an underreported strategy of the elite’s class warfare on the poor is lumpenproleization?

Every job and every last penny you have? All concessions the porks hate to make. They hate hiring, they hate when their business has to expand despite it supposedly being a sign of success. But thankfully for them, they can get together and agree to be pickier and pickier when they have no choice but to hire, and more than a quarter of the population in the US is functionally unemployed (including underemployment).

In sum, 25% of the country is lumpenproletariat and I am one of them. It’s a humiliation ritual to demoralize. Like it isn’t even faceless greed, this is smug, malevolent malice porks are doing simply because they can. Lumpenproletariat have also historically been easier to redirect to fascist elements, which is good for porky as it serves to increase the loyalty of the poor.

Been offline more than usual for a bit and I forgot how easy it is to be unaware of what’s going on. You can so easily get lost by the multiple distractions and completely miss what’s developing, and this is coming from someone who lives in the global south. It’s probably a lot easier for normies to be unaware of what’s going on in the world while living in the imperial core.

That V*ush thread where a depressed person had to deal with thst creep did remind me of a dude i used to work wirh who was on his way out when I was on mt way in to my current gig amd we had a solid comedy back and forth.

He k me exactly what he needed to do at that time cl sideline g our relationship as co-workers who got into a good joking around thing. I have no idea where thst guy is now but on thar day he did the exactly correct thing for me
