I’ve been considering the opposite. Life has only been getting worse and with this there future is guaranteed to be much worse.

I have my cat to worry about though, so I’m stuck here until she goes.

Last Week Forever: “Surprise twist this week: Trump good? Here’s why Trump is God and we should always worship him!”

who sued the Trump administration almost 100 times while he was attorney general.

Well I now worry for them since the DOJ will now be the arm of Trump to go after “political opponents” who “unfairly persecuted” him. :(

Just depression in general. I don’t want to live one lifetime, let alone never being able to die.

If you’re immortal in a body that isn’t broken then that might be a different story, but you’d still grow to love people only to have to lose them and go through that pain over and over.

No no no, they’re saying buy more NTFs! They just need to be different apes so you can have a broad index of them!

:P

I was never going to “find myself” and so I should have just gone to college with my friends for computer science and made the good money when jobs were easier to get even though I had no interest at all in it. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that jazz. Now I’m a worthless schmuck in a factory living in someone’s garage paying their mortgage in rent prices.

All my interests are hobbies, some of them even too expensive for me to do lol they’re nothing you can monetize.

I guess if we’re going to keep using war and conflict terms you could say we’re in a cold civil war.

We might as well call schools “sporadic shooting galleries” the way we’ve been treating the issue… It’s absolutely absurd :(

According to some of the information in here they seem to be claiming we’re still overestimating Dem performance in presidential elections, but that midterm elections where Trump isn’t on the ballot thing are more accurate. :(

I’m almost positive Trump wins with how close all the swing states are now and how he’s improving in polling (what the actual fuck people?!) the closer we get to the election.

I’m also almost positive we will not know for sure on election night as I absolutely expect R controlled states to drag their feet and declare “irregularities” that they need to investigate if they don’t like the way things are going.

Super optimistic title there lol

I’m with Cowbee. I don’t see this happening outside of a few mom and pop places that decide to do it on their own until “government” forces the change. Just look at the 3 letter jackasses freaking out about WFH.

I guess I got triggered by “northerners” lol I’m from long Island NY and it gets absolutely brutal in the summer. The NE gets surprisingly gross in the summer months

It gets to be 90°F with a dew point of ~75°F where I am.

You can swim in the air with those numbers and absolutely suffer heat stroke. Fans just circulate the humid as fuck hot air. :(

I’ve started noticing that now that I cook 100% of the food I eat. No more processed anything, no more prepackaged anything, no more eating out.

Mostly because of money and my location, but I’m better off for it.

“Press 1 to continue followed by the Octothorpes”

Lol I love it

Indubitably!

It means most certainly, beyond questioning.

And it’s fun to say!

There’s no rule that says a dog can’t play basketball a person!

:P

Peewee herman voice and all…

Yes I’m quite the lady-killer…

I only just recently learned the voice bit as I’ve never recorded myself. I used to think I was just ugly lmao

There were plenty of us that saw right through the bullshit even before the war started but unfortunately because the SCOTUS decided the election for us we were stuck with a gang of money hungry pieces of shit… I mean we still are, but we were then too…

I was young and naive so I wanted to join the military in hopes of getting some technical skills, but even as a 17 year old idiot I saw right through bushs bullshit and said fuuuuccckkkkk that. Now I work in a factory… Fuck Bush, fuck Cheney, fuck Rumsfield… War criminals the lot of them.

To get to OPs question, in America I think we have a collective shame about it so it’s pretty much never spoken about at all. The state of Iraq is only ever mentioned within the context of ISIS :(

Banksssss! Rob banks! Then use that money to buy snacks forever!

It became really difficult after billionaires bought up much of the smaller/stagnant media companies and turned them into “cut research and investigation departments, copy the NYT, and push entertainment opinion articles”

My rule of thumb unfortunately has become: is it a large corporation? Then it can go fuck itself. As others have said AP is good too
