And they almost explode when you do get them to break.

And then we're sitting down around the big ass console TV to watch MVP Frank Viola and the Twins win the World Series.
Best comment.
Sluggo can do better.
Forgot their brown shirts at home.
It's almost as if efficiency and cost savings weren't actually the point.
No problem. Air drop RFK in... He's got this.
I'm sure they'll be able to find a job with Tesla forest service, X public health, or other private companies that spring up. Of course they'll need to get used to the "market rate" of poverty wages and no benefits but hey it's better this way, right? /s
The profound stupidity of these people hurts my head.
Ides of March gonna be crazy this year
This meme made my day and gave me a good chuckle. Thank you.
Pretty much all of outstate MN and WI is like this (elsewhere too, I'm just from this area so I can testify firsthand). Working poor. Reliant on food banks (govt grants), Medicaid healthcare, subsidiaries for their healthcare insurance, government grants for housing starts or multi family housing, government funding for low income childcare and preschool, government jobs, and on and on.
But these people read at a sixth grade level and do math lower than that. Younger people only get information from TikTok. Older people from Fox News or Facebook. Most have never earned a post secondary degree or even attended college. Most adults haven't read a book since highschool. Many have never traveled more than 150 miles from home their entire lives.
It's like the absolutely perfect group to be duped again and again by propaganda and ruled by robber barons. When viewed as a group, it's easy to say, "haha get fucked." But interacting with many of these leopard victims, especially the young ones, I just kind of feel bad for them. Unpopular take here I know, I enjoy the schadenfreude as much as the next person.
Yet, I usually end up talking to someone at a bar or somewhere and we talk about a lot of other things first, animals usually or kids or the weather. And I think, "hey that's cool... they adopted 3 shelter dogs and are volunteering at the school and so on." But then the political shoe will drop and I'm like, "Really? You too? Don't you know x, y, or z are all the things you, well, need to survive?"
They're just ... Well... Dumb. Dumb in the way little kids are dumb. Naive and unable to tell truth from fiction, mentally and emotionally stunted people who will never grow out of it. Lied to and taken advantage of so many times they eventually become diehard bigots and lonely assholes.
Sigh...
