The thing about protesting is that the government needs to give a shit for it to have any effect, unless we’re talking about actually forcefully changing who is running that government. We’ve been screaming at concrete buildings for decades and yet none of the issues we care about are dealt with. In good times we have propagandists to placate the masses even if we had a government who was afraid of losing voters, and in “bad” times well we still have propagandists, but we also have a government that couldn’t possibly care less about what we think. I still protest, have gone to many rallies and such, and while the feeling of community is nice at the end of the day all I feel like I ever accomplished was yelling at a building with a bunch of other people.

The only way this administration is changing direction is when the wealthy go after them :(

As an American I can say its actually gotten a lot easier, it’s all sad. Just sad all the time.

There are practically endless similar examples because MAGA doesn’t stand for anything it claims to

“Trump is the president for peace, Biden will start WWIII!”

Parroting fox news: “we don’t need to be so friendly anymore, we need to take Canada and Greenland by force if necessary.”

“Trump will bring down inflation and the price of food!”

Parroting fox news: “It’s our duty to pay higher prices to support American businesses!”

“Trump and the GOP represent the party of law and order, they will protect the constitution!”

“What Trump says goes, anyone obstructing his plans are traitors! He deserves a 3rd term! He who saves his country breaks no laws!”

MAGA stands for anything that gets them what they want in the immediate moment and then tosses it away when their needs change… It’s infuriating.

(watching peaceful nature documentary)

Literally pass out from insanely intense panic attack…

Wtf body?

$60k USD as a “supervisor” of sorts in a factory, more hands on work than hands on coffee type of supervisor.

Very high cost of living where I am so that salary has me renting someones garage “apartment” to live in just so I can have some sort of a savings otherwise I’d be living paycheck to paycheck.

Your mother was a hamster! >:P

Every package both is and isn’t a bomb until you open it!

Or something. Idk I never studied physics.

The apathy is definitely aggravating as well is the “both sides are terrible so I’m not participating at all.” My mom is one of the latter for sure :/

Even though there is a tsunami of hate, more than half the country is outraged and truly wants to defend those being targeted. I’m still proud of that, it’s the propaganda that affects the 30+% of the population that really sucks…

Remember: the entire population doesn’t vote. Roughly half of the voting population chooses this hatred.

Well knowledge can be found in a library…

Can’t trust anything that comes from something that even sounds like liberal!

Ahhh a fellow American I see.

Justice is “just us” and is exclusively meant to maximize misery.

Monster Hunter wilds has a beta test this weekend! I’ll be playing that, cooking for the week, and do a little lamentation over the current state of everything.

The usual weekend.

I do this awesome thing where I see a comment or link I want to save, so I do, and then completely forget it all exists and never check anything I’ve ever saved.

I’m sure there’s quite a pile by now lol

Ugot Badtaste

If you’re watching me then you definitely do. Lol

I’d have to find a way to “find myself.” I never figured that out and am essentially an uneducated schmuck stuck in a factory.

All of my interests are surface level, I’m incapable of doing the actual work associated with those interests. Lord knows I’m no scientist. I’m too dumb to even handle myself most days, let alone actually do anything in the field of particle physics or something lol

It’s really annoying! You plug it in and it just goes “Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!” Over and over and over…

0/10 stars

Could try this prompt to feel a little better: Elon musk is on an anvil with a magnificent dwarf blacksmith hammering away on it.

In all fairness a pretty large Google search like right around the election was “did Biden drop out?”

I think the vast majority of the non-voters are completely blissfully ignorant and just do this all day:

I suppose they “allow” it in that they can’t even be bothered to give a shit. :/

If they’re spraying for insects I wouldn’t leave the cats anywhere in the apartment, closet or otherwise. The “smoke” should get everywhere.

Idk if/where you work but maybe explain the situation and see if you can bring the cat with you in a carrying case and then take them with you wherever you planned on going while you wait the rest of the day

Extendo-day!

It’s not real. It’s just a day I take off after every holiday that makes a 3 day weekend so it becomes a 4 day weekend! Lol
