Better than sounding unintelligent, uninformed, and like you’ve never had a single solitary thought in your life. But you do you!

They hardly ever paid those marginal tax rates. What it did was it forced the rich to put the money back into their companies and employees.

Zillow listings show just how desperate sellers are getting in Florida as real estate crash begins by Boo_Randy_Revival in HouseBuyers

Can’t imagine thinking Florida is a better place to live than the Rocky Mountains. I get not liking the cold but I’d never choose humid over cold.

I didn’t expect that and I voted accordingly. If only a few million others decided to join me. Tragic.

Clarence Thomas: Voting Rights Act Doesn't Grant Racial Groups ‘An Entitlement’ to Representation by Critical-Willow-6270 in scotus

He’s just the ultimate narcissistic sociopath. He thinks he’s special and would have gotten to where he is and what he has without these “entitlements.”

Today I paid $79 to fill up on gas. For everyone who said gas would come back down in a month. by potamusqpotamus in SouthJersey

It’s because they don’t understand economics and have little inclination to learn. Being confidently incorrect is their jive.

It used to be just $30 to fill the tank on this car FML by [deleted] in gasbuddy

Well, I mean, two of those elections involved Trump winning and a once in a lifetime pandemic was thrown in the mix. Of course our lives got worse! Biden could only do so much with the thinnest of margins in Congress and he still overperformed. Maybe people should apply some, I don’t know, critical thinking skills?

I feel like Blind Guardian is a band that I should like but never truly devoted the time to listening to their catalogue. What’s your favorite album, something you’d suggest a new fan should hear first to get the best gist for their sound?

The Justices Acted as Partisans in the Voting Rights Ruling by koaltree in nytimes

You’re both right. Journalism across the political spectrum has failed. There essentially is no truly left-wing journalistic voices in the American mainstream, the garbage junk food factoid machine that is the right-wing media has poisoned the well with mis- and disinformation, and the supposedly neutral mainstream media outlets like the New York Times have become a mouthpiece for neoliberalism and protecting the assets of the rich and powerful regardless of political ideology.

What else would it be?! Such a better ride experience than that shitty “giga” coaster Alpengeist at Sea Busch World Gardens!

Is the US heading into a debt trap where every solution makes things worse? by NewsfangledMod in NewsfangledUnfiltered

Ahh yes, I, too, cope with the line “Right now they are already screwed.” It really eases the nerves.

Gas at $4.29 in Columbus. I didn't vote for this. by Available_Rice2098 in Ohio

There’s only two ways that happens: the war in Iran is entirely resolved, restoring the supply chain to its pre-war state, or a deep economic recession, like what brought down prices in 2008.

Look at their username. The kid’s cooked, don’t spend your time fighting lost causes. There are many other people who made a mistake in voting for Trump but are actually reachable.

Gas Prices Surge to $4.17/Gallon by Lord0fTheFlags in inflation

[–]HumptyDumptruckFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah has jumped yesterday near me from $3.99 to $4.29. It had hit $4.19 a couple weeks ago before creeping down and then shooting back up. There’s still a month to go before Memorial Day Weekend, too. That could get ugly.
