Maybe that calendar wasn’t the end of the world, just when the end started.

Anyone who says otherwise is selling something

Yep, we’re already last the tipping point. Enjoy what ya got while it still exists because we are fucked

Do what I do. Stockpile stuff to get through the first 2-4 weeks. But have your house sabotaged in such a way that anything useful to anyone is destroyed, eat a fistful of sleeping pills and a deadmans switch to burn the whole thing down.

That’s why I had to stop watching The Boys in one of the middle seasons. It got waaay too real with the shit going on.

He was threatened with contempt of court a dozen or so times he kept falling asleep when he was convicted of all those felonies.

His first round of tarrifs in the first term included exemptions for businesess his family runs.

That was probably me because I was heavy in Reddit before the API fiasco 🤣

I wrote a short story over a decade ago about how a Galactic Consortium has been monitoring Earth for possible inclusion. The alien ambassador gets on all screans and devices, simulcasting to the entire world that they monitor and evaluate potential planets to see if they’re fit to join, a process usually taking over 10 years. They deemed us unworthy in less than half the time because there were 12 people on the planet with the wealth and resources to end starvation and suffering for the entire population, yet they’d rather burn & destroy 1/3 of the planet to accumulate more wealth instead…and it goes on like that for a bit. But he said that they’ll quarantine the planet, and if we attempt to break that quarantine they’ll destroy us. Then goes on to mention they have only encountered 1 race like us in their thousand years of existence…and that race attempted to build weapons to conquer them, but ended up destroying themselves in the process because of their petty tribal feuds.

I wish I’d saved that somewhere

them filthy non-whites and liberals workin hard and gettin everything that I should be gettin on a silver platter on the fact that im a pure bred american patriot!

As they go back to their job at the family run company that was given to them with no interviews, and they got rapidly promoted

Woke is the new sheeple. In that if anyone describes anything as “woke” you know their argument is utter bullshit

Their stance is essentially that racism, sexism, etc. is dead,

Racism is dead. Now let’s blatantly redraw district lines to ensure the absolute disenfranchisement of voters based solely on race

Only if he don’t want none unless you got buns hun

Welcome to Costco, I love you.

They city council is too busy counting the money they were given to pass this

Have you ever played Cyberpunk 2077?

“Just asking questions” had become the go-to response for people who are being utter dicks about something until they’re proven wrong or someone stands up to em.

It’s like the mild equivalent of someone saying “it’s just a prank bro”

More accurately…

Who wants to claim to be a superior intellectual?

Who is capable of explaining their opinions beyond repeating the same talking points they’be been fed?

How to tell you’re dealing with #1 and not #2? Once they’ve exhausted their shallow pool of talking points their next steps are…

• Completely switch topics

• Attack your character

• Try to fight you

• Use the phrases “do your own research” or “I’m just asking questions”

The last maybe 3 airbnbs I stayed in, the bathrooms had black mold and rotten wood trim around the tubs toilets and sinks. I wish I was making that up.

I haven’t touched an airbnb in close to a decade. It was great in the early days when it legitimately was cheaper than a hotel room. But with a hotel room…

• You don’t have to pay cleaning surcharges upfront (at least not yet)

• …on top of being required to put all towels & bedding in the wash, take out the trash and leave the place spotless otherwise you’ll get hit with additional fees and negative reviews impacting your ability to use all hotels ever again

• You don’t have to worry about hidden cameras and recording devices

• You don’t get 4+ texts a day telling you to leave them 5 stars
