I’m trying to figure out who the fuck might read this “polywork” bullshit and think to themselves: “yes. Both this take and this person are both sane and good”

It’s really hard for me to understand why you stopped learning and started talking. You’re supposed to keep doing both! instead of ending your education at high school and repeating things the rest of us have dismissed along with our pimples as ideas for children.

If 80 senators decide the vote should be anonymous then it could be, right? Normally i don’t think that’d be possible but for something AIPAC hold so dear i could see it

John Crapper is a hero in my book

no one wants to stand out when they don’t want to so… unique body. Not like elephant man even i mean just really tall/short dark/light different. No one wants to be too far outside the mean where they live

More evidence of Dem voters getting radicalized by their “unbiased” media. these cats are the ones trudging blindly behind their party’s frog-march rightward

I’m usually sitting or lying down.

I saw a post ‘kindly fall in line’ (speaking to a harris dissenter) on the lib-verse the other day and i thought they were lampooning libs at first but after several re-reads they were for real.

They can’t hear themselves. I thought liberals mostly just held the door open for fascists but that oft-used quote about bleeding is true, huh.

Fuck me

Sorry, I’m not quite sure what kind of help you are asking for. I do know one thing though:

Reddit shows me some weird stuff when I enter it and that distrubs my peace of mind!

You really should leave that place if you can. My experience is similar to yours, i also feel like crap after spending time there. Quitting that site and never looking back was a relief i hope you can share.

Unfortunately, I am in a system that handicaps human growth, you don’t/can’t grow up to your full potential when you live in systems like these

If you’re talking about being surrounded by reminders of a system you hate, i can relate. Can you talk more about them without doxxing yourself? If that’s not what you want to talk about, then maybe

I am hyperaware of certain things. Small things, they steal my mental peace, it can be someone honking incessantly on the streets or anything loud or unnecessary

Are you asking about help with anxiety and sensory overload issues? Cuz i can relate there too

No, there’s a rule that the coach can’t talk to the qb something like 10 seconds before any given play.

Isn’t this just a long way to paraphrase Hilary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables”?

I don’t know… I’m sure racism plays a part but to open with

You just need to know these basic facts: In 1980, white people accounted for about 80 percent of the U.S. population.In 2024, white people account for about 58 percent of the U.S. population.

And then bro just follows up this correlation with… with a venting of personal feelings and rampant generalizations.

Did it become trash when i wasnt looking? Cuz i actually thought the intercept was better than this.

I see the near future/current world as basically RoboCop but more gore and less funny. and also without RoboCop.

Living paycheck-to-paycheck doesn’t necessarily mean hardship, and LendingClub makes the distinction between those can pay their bills easily and those who can’t. Only a fraction of high earners – roughly one in ten – reported issues covering all their household expenses in April, according to the survey.

I guess the distinction is whether it means hardship for LendingClub. Fuck me, imagine reading shit like this credulously.

Ok i guess I’m Godwinning but how come nobody else said ‘hitler youth’ yet?

I wonder. why was Zillow referenced so often in this piece?

I heard UB40 but we might have been in different threads

Ahahaha i forgot about how segway revolutionized the way to get hit by a car

If reddit provides value to you, extract that shit. That’s what it’s doing to its users after all.

Time doesn’t slow down when you approach the speed of light and the theory we’re using to describe much of the universe is based on a bad premise, that the speed of light is constant.

I don’t care that I’m not as smart as einstein or that a lot of complex theories i also don’t fully understand are validated by special and general relativity. I, an everyman, know better.

I’m right
