It seems really harsh, but people are just trying to process and cope with the intensity of the trauma. Same shit happens with EMS/Healthcare workers. My mum was a nurse (trauma/ER/Burn, mostly) and her humour was dark af.

it’s really incredible considering how all the propaganda paints him as basically Tony Stark

Health Insurance in the states is a nightmare, I’m an American living in Australia rn and it’s so much better here (just in terms of Healthcare, and also paying taxes, the rest of the country is basically a dumpster fire and I’m lowkey not here by choice).

Smart money’s on him barely lasting his first term, if that. Harris gets groomed for the position and inevitably steps in as the de facto leader, and presidential incumbent 2024. I don’t see any way Biden’s swiftly deteriorating health lets him run again after this, he’s literally only there to re-establish Centrist power after intense challenges from the populist Left/Right.

Yeah I always just took em for granted but the fact that they’ve more or less survived neo-liberalization is incredible. I’d really love to live in a town with a tool library at some point, even tho I’m getting my own tools anyways for work. It’d just be real neat to live in a place that made that sort of thing available.

Yeah I was introduced to the idea of Library Socialism by the Srsly Wrong podcast and the idea is super appealing
