Anyone have that quote about how if the rich could bottle all the world's air and charge us to breathe, they'd do it? And if someone suggested smashing the air tanks and letting everyone breathe, his friends would turn him in to the police?

Sure their job is to be endangered and every boot worshipper is constantly using that as justification for why they should be the only ones with rights and shit, but also hOW DARE anything put them in danger.

For number 2, this is just true about specialization in a society, and has been forever. I don't think the hvac guy thinks I'm stupid for not knowing how to fix my own ac unut, I think we both recognize that some situations call for specialized skills and knowledge. If someone dedicates time and effort to studying something and I don't, I'm going to let them take the lead when that thing becomes relevant, and lend my assistance however I can, because the baseline assumption is that we're a society, a team. So many American truisms about "human nature" are actually just expressions of our own bourgeois government that eats and drinks abuse and deception.

Your roommate might have the same lingering brainworms I did at the beginning of my socialist education, where I've been conditioned to always just waiting for the rug pull and literally could not believe that there wasn't one coming. The tired old "revolution betrayed" cliche.

During the withdrawal, the US stole like $2B of Afghanistan's emergency recovery fund, which for anticommuniam heads out there, is the first actual case of a punitive famine being brought on by a vengeful despot named Joe.

In a rational society, 18 governors would be fired over this

How does Elon manage to put his hand on his own knee like a creep? It's like he's noncing himself, truly non-euclidian levels of juicelessness. He must be suffering every moment

Lmao at Don Jr doing product placement presumably by sheer trained reflex

I need friends, I need to come to grips with whatever blend of neurospiciness has been wrecking my shit my whole life, I need therapy, I need to live in a society and have something useful and fulfilling to do so I don't just get high and doom spiral about the state of the world and how I'm a disappointment to my parents

I wish it didn't take a stupid sad blideo gaem story to break through the wall of caked-on whatever the fuck that separates me from emotional vulnerability at all other times. It's made me lonely to not be able to be open, and even typing this right now there's like a third of my brain telling me that this is a stupid embarassment. Crying, or trying to cry, is maddening. It's shockingly close to the surface almost all the time these days, but when I want to let it out I can't do it, like a sneeze that never comes. At this point my brain is just screaming delet this so I guess I should hit post.

The sad blideo gaem is While We Wait Here, by the way. Not a masterpiece but definitely the best I've ever seen anyone pull off the Playstation revival genre

I hope David Frum gets the In Water ending and we get to read every last scrawled note he leaves on the way
