There’s nothing wrong with encouraging others to be better versions of themselves. The problem is many people aren’t capable of doing so without being toxic AF.

I have a core memory of chipping away at the brick of what had previously been powdered Gatorade that had since formed into a single solid mass after sitting in the pantry for several months.

It’s the first Simpsons episode I remember seeing

For reference, $10M is 1% of $1B. Jeff Bezos is worth $225B, so that would be 1/225 of 1% for him to foot the bill. Considering there are many other multi-billionaires living on that island, that brings our fraction of a single percent of their collective wealth closer and closer to effectively zero.

The greed of billionaires is unfathomable.

For anybody not wanting to visit the site. It’s a sign up form to get on the wait-list for his $5m pathway to citizenship.

From an outsider’s perspective, Japanese culture seems to foster a mutual respect for one another as well as for one’s community and environment.

On the contrary, America seems to idealize treating people with contempt unless there’s something you would want from them. Our society is very transactional and if you have nothing of interest to show for yourself then you have no worth to anybody and deserve no respect.

I know this is all a big generalization of two societies consisting of millions of people and this isn’t to say that everybody behaves the same way across both societies.

What a sniveling little bitch

I propose we get CO and they can have WI, MI and PA

I’m not a Christian and I’m not sure whether she is either. But when I think about what Jesus would be doing if he were around today, I imagine the situations in which I see Greta putting herself in.

What are you interpreting from this meme? That men aren’t fit to lead because they are generally emotionally unstable? Because I don’t think that’s what this is suggesting at all.

Just that the same argument against women being too emotional is bullshit because we’ve got two men in powerful leadership positions acting like emotion-driven children.

How did their commander in chief put it? Suckers and losers?

They could be sleeping comfortably in their own beds but instead they’re sleeping on a hard floor in a place devoid of any charm at the whim of a tyrant to do his bidding.

You think they care about their children’s well being? It’s all about their own status and legacy to them and their children are just a part of that.

How can we as a society tolerate this?

“My Lord, is that… legal?”

“I’ll make it legal!”

They’ve been jerking themselves off to deploying the military against California for decades. This is their fantasy come true and they can hardly wait.

“Dangerous to drivers”

Because you’re going to give yourself an aneurysm over a minor inconvenience? You’re in a giant suit of armor. You could hit every single one of those cyclists without sustaining even a scratch.

If the cyclists were actually dangerous to drivers, do you think the diver would be accelerating aggressively towards them?
