I read that when you die, you piss and shit yourself.
I read on hexbear that Israel stole falafel (BEAN BASED) food from Palestine.
Now I read this
The idf are pissing, shidding, farding, and cumming all over the place.
It's such a pain getting them to rollover balances to a fee free HSA and I'm not even sure I got them all.
Perhaps most alarming, 7 out of 10 people surveyed believed the economy wasn’t getting better — even after they were explicitly told ~~that inflation had eased and unemployment sat near record lows.~~ to change their fucking answer.
Xi please take her back to China with you where people have rights and the rich go to jail when they commit crimes.
Instead of dog tags you're collecting hog bags
The early conclusion I’m coming to is that MAYBE the American gets more treats
I totally agree with your maybe qualifier. I'm a stingy hermit but our treats suck. Yeah I can get a really nice meal for a third of my paycheck, but the real treats I want inherently threaten capitalism or aren't profitable. Human connection, walkable cities, clean and modernized public spaces, and free time are enemies of the bg because they create community, which shares a lot of letters with the bad word.
Even our media sucks because it can always start out good, but in the end the show, movie, book, game has to lib out and show how both sides or that "killing the baddies is actually bad." Any depiction of communism has to be in a situation where capitalism died of natural causes.
Really what Americans have to do is go overseas and spend their "powerful" dollar in a place that's being exploited. I don't like that feeling at all, though I guess I'd prefer my money go to people who actually deserve it. The fact that people have been traveling abroad for healthcare and saving money doing so is absurd.
Ok done ranting. Would be really interested in your post when it's ready!
At our benefits meeting the rep was straight face telling us to ask hospitals/doctors what the cash price is before running it through insurance as the negotiated rates are shit.
She spent the whole session basically telling us not to see the doctor because they'll bill us for some bullshit diagnostics at our annual visit that won't be covered.
Reminds me of the Obamacare "death spiral" but the death spiral is just good ole capitalism
Halloween decorations still up here. I am genuinely considering leaving them up until Christmas. Might add some discount skeletons to let everyone know I'm serious.
The war on Halloween is real.
Don't forget the crushing humiliation of freedom fries

The more compelling part of the show for me was the constant flashbacks to the happier times on the kids side, where characters who were long dead at the present we're having meaningful interactions with each other. It really got to me and you can easily contrast that with the ones in the core shirking their duties of telling kids to go to their death. I think the most hamfisted metaphor was the neural link being an "empathy" test. As someone who's media illiterate I thought the show was unique because it's so rare to find a show with a straightforward depiction of fascism exploiting/sacrificing an out group to sustain it's way of life/treat consumption.
Like you said the story on the front was far more interesting and thats where the show spent a lot of it's time .
Don't read Marx. It clearly explains reality and allows you to understand how you're being exploited. You'll also have much quicker realizations about why politicians do the things they do and why building community is actively discouraged. If you knew all that you might start to question the current status quo and that's bad tankie stuff
