I thought it was some homebrew control for the shower.

We’re pretty conditioned to obey. Like, you can be a rebel and insult people or be racist or sexist or “anti-social,” but you go to work and pay your bills. We’re also, mostly, in debt up to our eyeballs the stress of which gives a powerful myopia. Average Americans are way poorer than tv would have you think.

Thirty percent of the population doesn’t even bother to vote as they’ve basically given up, maybe for one of the reasons above or maybe because the government has little to do with day to day life, or maybe something else.

There’s also like a third of the population that is super happy about these developments. It the most amazing thing to have a king again and get back to how things are supposed to be.

There’s also a sort of general American optimism that is super persistent: if you do good, then it’ll be ok. We’re hyper individualized. Do the best you can with what you have. Don’t put anyone out, or depend on anyone else.

Unfortunately, things will have to get a lot worse to motivate us.

Earth tone plain button ups and jeans, loafers.

But, I can’t think what would possess anyone to wear something vaguely threatening to the general population.

Like do they look themselves in the mirror and think: decent?

I couldn’t imagine wearing something like this. Honestly, shirts that say anything are kind of out there for me.

You gotta admit, the last couple of hundred years have been a little fishy.

Zuckerberg doesn’t seem like he has the charisma for that.

I can’t really remember hearing him speak at all tbh

Airport bathroom wine mixer!

Delightful

Fucking Georgia

A joker.

Like that scene in lock stock and two smoking barrels

I read that as casino watch, and thought the neighbors were degenerate gamblers. I’m a little disappointed the direction this meme took by completely avoiding any gambling issue. I also still don’t know what a casino watch is.

Can’t have nothing without consumerism ducking it up.

I can’t believe it. I’ve seen this picture like five times and assumed it was a fake.

Not for a few weeks, then it will have been there the whole time so nobody needs to do anything about it.

I thought I needed makemkv to put it in handbrake. Have I been doing it wrong?

What about Linux? I’m a recent conver that was used to makemkv

I have been here about as long, though it doesn’t feel like two years. I’ve decided it’s probably how some people interpret left of center views.

Kind of like how my parents seem to interpret feminist as misandrist hell bent of world domination and not people who think compensation should be equal.

Either that or people hearing such and such communist country was right about X and interpreting it as that country was right about everything.

It seems like some thought terminating bullshit to me, but like you, maybe I’ve just not happened across this terrible scourge on Lemmy.

I believe government jobs tend to have pretty structured & compensation is public.

What an interesting study in punctuation.
