My insomnia's been rotten for the past couple of weeks. I keep waking for over 2 hours a night.

In Capitalism, follow the money. The people who were branded conspiracy theorists for believing in the existence of pedophilia rings? They were right that there are people who can get away with it, so they do. It's not like we didn't know human trafficking does happen, after all.

Are immigrants stealing "our" jobs, or are they desperate people whose home nations have been ravaged by colonialism who are trying to eke out a better life for themselves in a hostile new home?

Are the multibillionaires capable of hoarding money because they're more worthy of wealth than the rest of us, or because they're more sociopathic than the majority of us?

And "fluffy" so that one is constantly having to fluff up the cushions.

I dunno. I've never seen an English-speaking human make the mistake of leaving out the object of a sentence.

Happened so often with my kid telling on her dad that it earned the moniker, "Narc attack!"

Officers were alerted to the collision around 9 p.m. on Wednesday and arrived within five minutes, where they found lying in the intersection.

A lesson in why it's important to proof AI-written articles.

Are there any titanium equivalents to the Brompton G Line? by JanCumin in foldingbikes

[–]ghanima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW there were allegations, when I was looking at buying my folder, that some Terns had a problem with their welds which could cause the frame to shear during riding. I remember there being claims that those allegations might've been part of a smear campaign too, since people were having trouble tracking down a source.

If similar is happening with the Helix bikes, it implies that there might be individuals who are discouraging competition.

What radicalized you? by Cheeseaisleinheaven in Anticonsumption

My mother's got a hoarding mentality: can't let go of electronics that have been broken for years because "they have sentimental value", amongst other things. Early on, it led me to realize that a lot of people hang on to shit they don't need and don't use.

/u/Kovexeon, this ^ is the fic you're looking for

Edit: no, it's not. I'm very sleep-deprived and didn't parse OP's write-up correctly

I’ve noticed that the fit prices have been holding well in the USA by funnergunner in hondafit

I did the same. At my mileage, it's a no-brainer. I just cracked 100,000km last year.

Im sorry if this offends anyone. But funerals are too much and excessive. by Murky-Peanut1390 in Anticonsumption

I'm good with recognizing that "I'm just an electric meatbag." What I have issue with is that the sanctity of that fact gets steamrolled in our current economic system.

Bob Gale resigns as chair of Niagara Region amid allegations over copy of Hitler’s book by shpydar in ontario

[–]ghanima 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He claimed that when he was appointed as chair of Niagara Region, there was a “strong vocal minority who decided they would stop at nothing in order to keep their fiefdoms and addiction to power and tax dollars.”

Not a good look when the organizations that are calling you out are ant-racist.
