@KyleLanham360 @heavensbvnny I would donate for the cause under my own name. What’s selfishness sh about that?

@CandyGram831 @heavensbvnny ^i would never donate to them either but that being ur reason is crazy

I fucking hate grocery store check out screens asking me if I want to donate $10 to end child hunger or whatever. You’re a $10 billion corporation. I’m using a coupon to get 50 cents off a bag of potatos. Why don’t YOU donate $10 to end child hunger

The old financial advice stopped working. Cancel Netflix. Skip coffee. Pay down debt. Meanwhile: Housing doubled. Insurance exploded. Groceries up hundreds a month. People aren’t failing because they bought too many lattes. The math changed.

This is no "democracy" y'all: AI billionaires get whatever they want while working people get the shaft

In case it wasn't already clear that the US bombed Syria on the basis of a phony chemical attack staged by the Salafi-jihadi elements that now control the country, here's further proof

The U.S. already has 5,500 data centers that use 449 million gallons of water a day. They’re being built on farmland so in addition to taking away our water they’re taking away our food supply all for mass surveillance, AI slop, and to make billionaires richer. These data centers will ultimately lead to our extinction if we don’t stop them.

I calculated how many hours I'd have to work at my job to buy a house in my hometown. In 1985: 4 years of full-time wages. Today: 27 years. I didn't get lazy the math got criminal

Funny how workers can’t write off student loans required for their jobs, but CEOs can write off private jets and yachts.

Nobody gives a fuck about this dumb bullshit right now, read the damn room.

The ruling class figured out the cheat code: Start a crisis. Blame the poor. Enrich the donors. Expand the police state. Call it freedom. And somehow working people are still expected to clap.

@skumWgmi I was once at an interview that was 3 hours of conferences and filling out paperwork. They called me the following week, not to offer me the job, but because I left a question blank. The question was what my my last job salary was. That told me everything that I needed to know.

Nobody told me that most white-collar jobs are completely made up salary ranges. The posting says $45,000-$65,000. The actual approved budget is $75,000. They start low in case you don't know to ask for more. I spent three years underpaid at a job I was god at because I didn't know the numbers was netotiable. Alwayss ask for more than the posting. The worst the say is no, which is exactly what happens if you don't ask.

No one needs a trillion dollars. That kind of wealth can’t be earned. It’s stolen. Hoarded. Accumulated by ensuring others remain impoverished. It dehumanizes you. If you don’t realize this, you’re part of the problem. You’re much closer to being homeless than being rich.

If you live in a system that allows fascism rise and thrive, it was already fascist to begin with.

@emkenobi “Ruining the family’s image”. This from a man who taught his sons that “real men” humped every woman who crossed their paths, even if they or the women were married to others.

I will never get over the fact that their father forced Rosemary Kennedy to have a lobotomy because she was being a normal 23-year-old girl who wanted to have fun, and her father said she was ruining the family’s image. He contacted a doctor who told him a lobotomy would “correct” her behavior, but it ended up making her mentally and physically handicapped. She could no longer walk or talk properly and had the mental capacity of a child. Her family was then embarrassed by her condition, so they sent her to live at an institution for the mentally impaired, where she lived until her death in 2005. Her family also didn’t visit her for 20 years, fearing they’d be photographed with her and it would cause a scandal in the press. Most people don’t even know about her existence because the family rarely talked about her. Her siblings didn’t even know where she was until their father's death in 1961. Despite JFK being the president at the time, he still prioritized keeping in contact with her and managing her medical care. It was said that he was extremely protective of her and would visit whenever he was able. Her mother eventually began visiting her after 20 years. Her father never went to see her after she was institutionalized. He was the reason for her disabilities, and he completely abandoned her. Once her siblings discovered where she was, they visited her regularly, and Eunice Kennedy eventually started the Special Olympics because of her. The surviving Kennedy siblings were at Rosemary's side when she passed. She could have lived a normal and happy life, but her father took that away from her because she didn’t meet his expectations. Nothing ever happened to the doctor who was responsible for the lobotomy.

The most corrupt, ultra rich, wealthiest, selfish pricks with too much money than they know what to do with and will never be able to spend it all are against social programs WE pay into. These tax-evading freeloaders are parasites on society

@nyaraVT Probably because the majority of the most successful people in the world are not good human beings, so anyone who measures worth in monetary terms doesn’t see the value in being a good person.

Maybe it’s because I’m neurodivergent, but it blows my mind how so few people actually want to be a good person. Good people are celebrated in movies, games and books, yet rarely does anyone in the real world actually care enough to be a good human being.

@theoluminati I’m sorry, did you just say that they “work”? Lol.

we joke about it a lot, but does anyone actually know WHY politicians love to stay in office and work until they’re 500 years old? why is this almost the only job we see it with? is anyone begging to keep working as a lawyer at 97
