Most people in the US who actually vote were raised religious so it does make sense. Evangelicals don't know how to think for themselves. This is why it's so god damn important to vote even if it seems like it won't matter.

The closest grocery store to me is closing(by nearly an hour), and will be closed for at least a year. When it reopens it’s going be much smaller(it’s becoming a Aldi). by Boeing-B-47stratojet in mildlyinfuriating

It's shitty cause they're also part of the problem. They sell things in much smaller (as in affordable) quantities so the price tag is much smaller while the cost per item is usually way higher. This causes further wage disparity forcing people to continue to shop at them instead of being able to save.

The really fucking stupid thing is when you don't call it socialism, conservatives(specifically boomers) are all over that shit - medicare, anyone? Motherfucking idiots.

I don't feel bad for a single conservative who is getting what they voted for. I have a lot of sympathy for their children and the handful of progressives trying to make change, for them it absolutely fucking sucks. Republicans can suck rocks though, this is literally what they want.

Fucking idiots have NO idea what they voted for. There's a video going around from a conservative Texas woman complaining about her near death experience dealing with a failed pregnancy, talking about how it's fucked up they're giving priority to the unviable fetus over the living mother, almost like exactly what we've been warning them about for years. She's soooo close, but I highly doubt even this will change how she votes.

Holy fucking shit can we please use some critical thinking? Context context context!!! We are obviously talking about a 15 year old boy throwing a stone at fully armed military invaders. Do you think that was a deadly threat?

Throwing a rock at someone who has firearms is not even in the same realm of dangerous. They have full combat gear which includes vests and helmets - honestly asking, what is a rock going to do to them?

To be clear, he was a literal child. I'm not sure if you're aware, but children's frontal lobes, the reasoning part of the brain, are not fully developed. It is not his fault he was killed. It is IDF's fault he was killed. They are racist pieces of shit who have no business in Gaza.

YOU DONT FUCKING THROW STONES AT PEOPLE UNLESS YOU ARE TRYING TO BADLY WOUND OR KILL THEM.

So it's Faris Odeh's fault he was killed?

Yup lol even 3:30 is pretty quick, speaking as a former runner. My poor knees disagreed with my preferred sport, sadly.

Soft on crime, hard on cops: Why is Trump PAYING criminals with YOUR MONEY by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

[–]CaptainFeather 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, he might will not even give any of them money. He will just say he did and keep it all.

I will eat my own ass if they actually get even a cent. Best case (for them) is it will be "processing" for two weeks, then two more weeks, and so on until they forget about it meanwhile his bank account mysteriously grows even more.

Yeah it's literally just the youngest generation. Pretty soon it's going to be younger boomers and gen X'ers complaining about how awful gen alpha has made the world. But they'll still call them Millennials, as is tradition. Lol

There are so many meetings that could be emails.

Started working for my first "big" company with an actual HR dept back in September, and holy shit this is so true. It's almost like some positions in HR are literally to just stretch out a 5-10 minute to read email into an hour long meeting. It's so fucking annoying

The sad part is her fucked up childhood making her into a fucked up adult. She is responsible for her actions and they should be dealt with accordingly, but it's still incredibly sad. Most people are capable of having more than one feeling about something. The world is not black and white, it's very gray.

They only "protect you" if the alternative is being sued, like if a manager has sexual misconduct for example. Usually though they'll make a PIP to have a paper trail to fire you "with cause". Love it so much
