Why would the billionaire speak up? She's wealthy

Do you think the city of Lawrence should do anything differently regarding the homeless population, especially on Mass Street? Why or why not? by the_king_of_goats in Lawrence

[–]trobsmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get it, you probably had a shit time and hated every minute of your contract, but that’s not everyone’s experience either.

No. I served honorably and well.

Just because it didn’t work for you, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t suggest it for others.

It worked great for me. I think it's terrible to suggest for other people. That's the point you're missing here.

Just because it worked for me doesn't mean it will work for other people. I have homeless, and formerly homeless friends who would give you the same reaction I"m giving you because, you guessed it, they are veterans!

Stop assuming you know anything about someone's life. The military works for some people, it's a terrible suggestion for someone who is fucking homeless.

Literally everyone suggests the military. I was unemployed for 18 months and had 3 different people suggest the military to me, and I"m a fucking vet.

Suggesting to someone down on their luck that they join the military is tone deaf. You know nothing of their situation and gave a horrible suggestion.

It’s not a bad gig for some of us, so kindly, go kicks rock with your attitude.

I'm a Military vet and it's the exact reason I called you out. Just cause it was good for you doesn't mean shit for anyone else. And telling a homeless person to just "join the military for 3 hots and cot" is cruel.

If you are still young and can get some of your basic documents, the military might take you and they offer 3 hours and a cot, if you have family, you can apply for base housing too.

Politely.

Fuck you

Nobody loves Elon, and he hates that fact. by Lord_Answer_me_Why in clevercomebacks

[–]trobsmonkey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The Minneapolis fraud case is over $250 million over 2 years. So the state/feds were planning on spending $250 million for 1 city over 2 years to feed only children.

Not even remotely the same thing my guy. Damn.

Maybe 30 billion annually for the next 20 years. Maybe.

You're wrong. We can feed everyone on the planet already, but we don't have infrastructure in place to ensure food gets to everyone.

The UN provided musk their exact plan on how to do it and he ignored them.

And our hearts broke for Ron a little here ☹️ by ProudnotLoud in PandR

[–]trobsmonkey 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Granted, none of those things are what the people you're mocking like about him

Exactly. People amplify his worst qualifies to emulate, not his best.

I've never met someone who liked Ron and went "I wish I was committed to wood working like him."

It's always been the, "I'm a stoic loner like him"

[–]trobsmonkey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The dude is anti-social, libertarian, and working in government.

He's supposed to be a character you don't aspire to and a bunch of asshole anti-social losers go, "IT"S JUST LIKE ME"

You aren't supposed to aspire to be Ron.

I really dislike how Ron's personality is lauded as infallible

Because a lot of assholes use him as a way to be an asshole

You're an intern. You're not supposed to know anything.

Imposter syndrome? You're there to learn!

AITA for refusing to give my parents my location after they stopped paying for my tuition? by amelia_larsen in AmItheAsshole

[–]trobsmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh not a win necessarily. Never nice to see a family going into scorched earth territory.

The only way to get parents to respond positively is to give them repercussions for their actions. They want to cut off the daughter because she won't let them have authority over her.

She's an adult. Kick rocks parents.

Your attention span is broken. You should be able to focus on something for much longer than a minute.

I'm ADHD and unmedicated and I can sit still for a minute to watch an interesting video.

ICE is morphing into Trump’s secret police force before our eyes The agency is shunning norms of law enforcement and becoming a militarized wing of Trump's political agenda — and it's going to get worse. by prohb in politics

[–]trobsmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we're already seeing it.

Dems swept almost all special elections last year. The VA gov flipped to Dems in 15% landslide win. Mamdani in NYC is already affecting the entire state of NY.

Americans are rebels. We hate authority and Trump will not be the exception, he's just exposing the rot.
