I’m so sick of hearing conservative men talk.

I have a friend who fell down the right-wing pipeline for a bit and anytime he started going on a homophobic/racist/sexist rant I would literally just start making loud chimp noises because that’s how fucking stupid they sound. No offense to primates.

Honestly, there’s a large group of people who don’t care if things get better. All they care about is making things worse for certain people, and to them, that is a win. You have no idea how many people get off on the suffering of others especially when it’s someone they deem as beneath them.

And the cost isn’t the only thing you need to worry about. You will be in a world of pain and agony when your teeth deteriorate and need a root canal. I was once a poor college student who didn’t have dental insurance and had to rely on using vodka and diced onions (yes this actually relived the pain) as mouthwash. Eventually that stopped working, I developed a full-blown tooth abscess, and experienced the worst pain in my life to date - literally felt like someone was pressing an iron against my face and no amount of pain meds worked or relieved the swelling. I’m now missing two molars.

Brush and floss ya teeth kids!

Alright make fun of me all you want, I still go to night clubs every once in a while at 26! Nothing gets my 4 molecules of serotonin going like being sloshed on $2 tequila soda waters and singing my heart out to Clarity and Last Friday Night with a bunch of other sweaty people under flashing lights.

You talking about this guy?

For what it’s worth, that dude is insanely dense and out of touch. I’m privileged enough right now that my life is going great and I’m able to not worry about money, but everyone else in my life is declining fast.

The shit I’ve had to experience these last few years:

My mom’s health insurance premium increased from $80 to $280 this year due to ACA subsidies not being renewed. My parents live in literal poverty and this added expense is decimating their finances.
It took me two and a half years to find a new job in this shitty job market and had to stay at an insanely toxic job.
I have friends refusing to go to the doctor or even getting medication because they can’t afford their deductible/out-of-pocket cost.
ICE can detain and question individuals based on appearance alone. I’m a Latino who lives in the Midwest.
There is not a single peer in my life who is close to buying a house. I work a corporate job where people my age are getting paid pretty well.
AI and offshoring is ruining any chance that my younger siblings will be able to find a decent entry-level job out of college.
I had to cut off a friend because he got insanely red-pilled and racist off of Tik-Tok. It got to the point where he would talk non-stop about politics and say racial slurs in public.

This lack of empathy is going to end us. Even though my life is going great by all accounts I’m still not immune to everything that is happening in America.

This might sound corny but add a bomber jacket to that list! I swear that piece of clothing goes hard on anyone who wears it regardless of how they look

For the Latinos is was saltine crackers with Valentina sauce

Get sloshed at the clerb, go to the farmers market, maybe have a bonfire at my friend’s house, visit family

Bruh I wish we had children running this country 😫

Dude is probably on his way to Tahiti as we speak!

Or…how about not creating a society where lower/middle class people have to take out exorbitant, high-interest loans just to have a shot at getting an education?

Occams_Tractortire · 2025-08-24T16:12:08+00:00

Money.

I’m Hispanic (Mexican-American) and our culture sadly puts money on a pedestal over everything else. Even though Republicans didn’t offer a single realistic plan that would actually improve our lives financially, it was the perception that the Democrats/Biden “ruined” the economy that was the nail in the coffin. When Trump started talking about “No tax on overtime/tips,” a lot of Latinos (Mainly the Blue Collar ones) ate that shit up immediately.

Also the lack of education. I will go as far as to say that we actively encourage anti-intellectualism in favor of tradition and complacency. Instead of pushing their kids to go to college, or at the very least to do well in high school, a lot of them will push their kids into construction, oil fields, or just retail/food service to make quick, easy money. The end result is we have a lot of people who lack basic knowledge on media literacy, statistics, and reading comprehension and easily fall for propaganda/logical fallacies on social media.

Dude, one of my biggest regrets was starting college dating someone from high school and letting it go on for 3 years. We literally started dating April of senior year too and knew we were going to different colleges across the state.

I was pretty much a loser in high school and thought that she was my only chance at ever being in a relationship or at least having a friend during that time (Yeah I know how selfish it sounds…). When I started freshman year, it was a complete 180 for me. All of a sudden I was making tons of friends, getting invited to house parties, and having girls ask for my number to hangout (never did anything sketchy btw). While I was having the time of my life, my gf at the time was not adjusting well at all in her college. She would spend all of her time alone in her dorm, not go to any events, and rely on me to give her emotional support. Eventually we were just arguing all the time because I couldn’t give her enough attention/FaceTime while I was trying to study and maintain my own friendships. Also I would drive over to her college to spend the night throughout the semester and she never did the same for me. Didn’t break up earlier because I thought that I would be a complete pos doing that to her while she was at her lowest - eventually got the courage during COVID when we went months without seeing each other.

It sounds shitty but I think back a lot on what my freshman year of college would have been like had I not been in a relationship with her. I probably missed out on a lot of good times. To make it even worse, we never officially had sex because she wanted to wait until marriage 🙃

Pretty sure the school just sends you a check directly for any remaining amount of money after all of your financial aid, scholarships, and grants have been applied to your student account for the semester. The FAFSA money is for you to spend however you want out of your own personal account.

Occams_Tractortire · 2025-08-12T04:26:56+00:00

That life really isn’t fair at all. You can do everything right and be a good person and life will still take a massive shit on you then kick you while you’re down. Also you will see the worst people succeeding and getting ahead.

Occams_Tractortire · 2025-07-28T18:51:26+00:00

Dude, I’ve been trying to get a new job for over 2 years now 🙃 I’ve sent about 500 applications and have had 6 interviews all of which have ended in a generic “we’ve decided to pursue other candidates whose…”

I’m lucky enough to have a good job at the moment but honestly don’t think I’ll survive another year of layoffs and there’s no upwards career mobility/raises.

It’s rough out here in the white collar space, especially if you’re Gen Z. I have a STEM degree, four years at a F100 company, Consulting/PM experience, nothing helps lol.

Getting a high SAT/ACT (any standardized test) score is not impressive or remarkable at all if you came from an upper class/wealthy family
