They are huge water-wasters and I’m amazed they’re not illegal.

King of the Hill was making jokes about low-flow toilets and that was 25 years ago.

Ha! Day laborers! Why do you think the Roman elites were so big on open immigration of slaves! Citizens, you have to pay them! They’ll even revolt and form mobs and lynch you if you try to screw them over! Much better to import more and more slaves and give them bread & circuses so they stay calm while you’re doing it.

This article is much like what decentralized propaganda systems do. They don’t write the propaganda themselves, but they write an article that provides a framework about how to write about the issue. Important points are emphasized for repetition: these marks are fringe, Ukraine is against them but is in a corner and can’t refuse their help, it’s a messy history and that’s all that need be said about it so don’t harp on it, anyone who broadcasts the nazi shit is a Russian shill, and Ukraine’s government is the worst offender by posting nazi photos on their official social media (subtext: don’t YOU do this either).

BTW this account is written by a woman

The actual food at restaurants is pretty cheap at cost. Garlic knots? Pff. Drinks are the cheapest part of any meal. This man paid pennies and perhaps got some new loyal customers. Plus, he probably genuinely enjoys pleasing people. I’ve known more than a few restaurateurs who do this kind of thing. They just love delighting people and making them thank him.

It’s basically the theme of the movie “Fight Club”. Material prosperity but spiritual poverty. He has everything a man could want…except fulfillment. “The things you own end up owning you.”

Tyler Durden: Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who’ve ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need. We’re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War’s a spiritual war… our Great Depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off.

That whole Mastodon thing just disappeared after the brief window after Musk bought Twitter. People said they were leaving and disappeared without a trace. I figured I’d start seeing links to Mastodon on various social media sites, and it just hasn’t happened. As far as I know, they’re still there, happy to talk to each other without being bothered by chuds.

This was definitely written by a real leftist, there’s too much authenticity in there. Especially the wordiness and citing a bunch of political trends and philosophers that chuds have never heard of. “Bernsteinians” for example. The way leftists treat chuds is easily explained because it is how you treat The Other. Anyone have a link to that greentext he’s talking about?

I love takes like this. They’re so creative. It’s like taking a Lego Wakanda set and building a Turing-complete computer out of it.

Roger Waters has been doing this exact same shit since the nineteen-fucking-seventies

And they just decided a week ago that it’s anti-Semitic

I don’t want to live on this planet any more
