everyone knows the president is the sole person responsible for the price of everything, every time you see prices change that's biden personally deciding it every morning.

Unless it's my president then it's totally the other guy.

And totally ignore the years of progress leading up to when positive things come to fruition. A magic orange man can snap his fingers and make things great. A lot like the magic that the sky man uses.

How the fuck do religious people or conservatives state such things without feeling absolutely fucking braindead lmao I guess that requires awareness

Before I read into how pissed I should be at this - how many litres or gallons did shell sell in this time period, and what was their profit per litre or gallon?

I think everyone has the right to be pissed:

That is largely due to members of the Opec+ group of oil-producing nations cutting output to support the market.

I hate cars,

Buy more cars,

In every single place we are.

Going 'vroom', to our doom,

Flinging kids near and far.

Burning cash

In a flash,

Just to turn the world to ash.

God I just took the biggest dump. I’m talking $5 footlong but in the shape of an Italian sausage.
