Still can't get over that elementary school posting about ice cream day and the line "Students are not permitted to buy ice cream for a friend."

It's like a story out of a childrens' book where all the little kids go buy ice cream but one of them can't afford it so his friends buy it for him and everyone is happy.

But we're so far down the hyper-individualist rabbit hole that this very basic "sharing is caring" moral has vanished entirely, our culture is so rotten that "NO HANDOUTS, YOU'RE NOT ENTITLED TO ANYTHING, FUCK YOU" takes precedence over basic empathy for freaking elementary schoolers.

Imagine being a teacher and having a little 6-year-old look up at you, asking if he can also have some ice cream like everyone else, and telling him "No." The thought of that makes me so fucking angry.

Remember nerds just like in the old site, no current struggle session discussion here on the new general megathread, i will ban you from the comm and remove your comment, have a good day/night :meow-coffee:

Oh my bad guys I didn't realize the Nazi soldier who was in the SS had a problematic past.

The more you know

Comrades, this is not a bit or a joke - I had a surprise date last night that I ended with Yellow Parenti.

I am the one true leftist.

It's incredible how quickly chauvinism pops up when arguing with radlibs about domestic politics.

'Can't criticize the because that helps russia!'

I'm so sick of having to talk about china or russia when discussing issues that aren't remotely related. I'm so sick of being called a putin bot or whatever because I am sick of American empire and its violence. I'm so sick of needing to find the "civil, proper" way to criticize the fact that the canadian parliament applauded a literal nazi.

I am tired

8yo me: the government should just print more money

16yo me: national economies are complex beasts, and simply printing money to sidestep budgetary shortfalls may have dangerous and far-reaching ramifications

23yo me: the government should just print more money

I like BG3, but I think the reason it gets so much praise is in part because people forgot what even a halfway competently put together game looks like. Compared to BG3, Starfield feels like one of those fake games you'd see characters on TV playing in the background.

Women in E-sports: they're still s

Gamer Legion has terminated with immediate effect its contract with Chloe "KittyTM" Geaney, after it was revealed that KittyTM has been using racial slurs to insult several players during FaceIT games

Somehow other bigoted gamers managed to make it about her being trans

I've been feeling really bad about my body recently because I'm overweight, and feeling bad just makes me want to eat food for comfort. How do I break out of this

not a syndicalist, but I gotta concede that the name is really cool

FWIIII ^Huh!^ ^Hooh!^ ^Huh!^ ^Hooh!^ ^Huh!^ ^Hooh!^

You know that goth girl you had a crush on in high school? She fucking hated you. And for good reason.

Miyazaki shaved the beard

Biden's dogs keep biting secret service officers lol

That which exists outside of my mouth exists without my consent

Instead of "good post" imma say "good boy, you did such a good job posting "

It's funny when you read a meme on Hexbear and you can tell it's been crossposted from lemmygrad without looking

I am incredibly sick of rural amerikkans popping out of the woodwork to tell me all about how they absolutely need their car for their 300 mile daily commute whenever I mention bicycles or micromobility.

Just had my first exam of the semester

Bit idea: If libs come here doing their anti-tankie stuff just keep replying "OK Adolf" because it annoys the shit out of them lmao.

The west digging up war heros who fought against Russia in WWII

"Let he who is without time served in the Waffen SS cast the first stone"

• Liberal Jesus, 2023

Western Marxists blaming Soviet excesses on Engels and trying to excise him from the Marxist canon is like the funniest fucking shit

I cried listening to an album today. It was remastered, so the tinge of new on it plunged itself deep into my heart and pulled me all the way back from like 20 years ago, aligning me to everyone I used to be since it entered into my life. Feeling both my past hopefulness and today’s depair fight, and somehow my hopefulness won out.

I used to LOVE space. Facts about planets, about missions, the thin veneer of cooperation we told ourselves about when working with the USSR and then Russia.

Now it seems like Outer Orbit Life will never be possible. Like Gundam’s notion that it’ll lead to wars is truer by the day, that scifi classifying it as a libertarian hellscape where people are worked to death for profits instead of for the betterment for all in the shining blue pearl.

Space used to hold an optimism for me. Now they put a ticketbooth in front of it, abandoned it and put a 15 ft fence around the very idea.

It is easier to imagine abandoning the earth for all the evils we brought upon it, but as time goes on you only get to imagine 7 people on that ship. The rest left to die. So far from that turn-of-the-century optimism we were so full of.

I keep disassociating; I don't know what's happening. I had to have a friend come with me to the grocery store and tell me what to buy cuz I couldn't do it.

My adoptive parents after not getting me anything for my birthday and having people over the entire day (not for my birthday, just for their sake) but having a cake and people over for their biological children: yeah we're trying to celebrate everything this year

"Is the Russian Propaganda with us in the room right now?"

I really should learn to manage not being self sabotaging/destructive for once since I had to make a new account. Also fuck, since having to change my diet after my wisdom teeth removal from last week, I weigh like 89lb now.

Unrelated but there also something really nice about cold water and just bundling up under a ton of blankets
