White women fuck dogs, Asians eat them

@escapefrommelos Disney Land is incredibly popular among Hispanics

you might now like it, but this is Protestantism's Final Form

@paleonormie Minnesotans blissfully unaware that many regions of the world have Springs that gradually and gently get warmer rather than schizo hot and cold accompanied by tornadoes

They should invent a climate where it’s May in Minnesota all year

@shagbark_hick Every other region of the US feels like a foreign country

It's 100% true that Massachusetts has a completely unique and singular culture of its own, and that it'd feel "foreign" to those unfamiliar with it. I'd even go so far as to count MA among other typically "less American-feeling" states, like New Mexico, Louisiana, and even California. Thinking about it now, true old MA culture strikes me as this bizarre mixture of extreme orderliness in the civic sphere and a kind of almost bawdy roughness amongst the actual people. That so much of the state is or was very Catholic may have something to do with it. You can almost see the bifurcation between the Catholic "rabble" -- tough old Polish and Irish union guys, heavy-drinking mill-town denizens, etc -- and their Post-Puritan uber-lib overlords. That they've coexisted and blended in the fashion they have for so long is a kind of mystery. The whole state feels to consist of Old-Euro ethnic ruffians and professorial WASPs blended together variously in leafy university towns, depressing postindustrial ghettos, and Shire-like farmers' market villages. Nothing like the pie-for-breakfast Yanks of Vermont, the dour and milk-faced New Hampshirites, or the mumbling drunk loggers of Maine. A totally distinct culture, what with Pączki and Irish Pubs and neatly-trimmed lawns and a bureaucratized social safety net that'd make Sweden blush. I genuinely adored living in Western MA and in recent days, I honestly think I'd gladly live there again. Those guys are "rough" in a way that jives with me; like Jersey but way more farmy and hippie-tolerant and WAY less stressed.

@TheBlackHorse65 What will neoliberals/socdems do when they can’t even in theory prop up social welfare systems with cheap immigrant labor given lack of supply

There are a whole class of people who think that black and brown people are magically immune from the anti-natal effects of modernity. Weirdly enough, it's much closer to the inverse of reality.

@fredsoda Very healthy mindset

i accept america for what it is i don't dream about what it could be anymore

@A_townspeaks Mexicans are at least nominally Christian, there is more shared culture when you dive beneath the surface, and you can relate to their colonial story while respecting their right to be in this hemisphere via native ancestry

That didn't go quite the way he thought it would.

@duck_walk_blog @eigenrobot This OP is really susceptible to social shaming

@eigenrobot "well yeah you have to if you want pussy" "chicks won't like you if you're rude" "you'll die alone" yeah well maybe that's a them problem

one thing many anti-marriage men dont understand about marriage is that yes you are giving one woman vast power over your life. but you are also reducing to ~0 the amount of power that most non-kin women have over you with a good woman, this is an exceptional trade

@eigenrobot Retarded take

one major problem we have is we've never dealt with our worsening ability to forecast the structure of the world our children will inherit. our distant ancestors knew how their kids and grandkids would live. we can't project a single generation into the future, and our forecasting errors are compounding.

@ExTenebrisLucet It’s significantly better home cooked

@___Sikandar You think I don't know Indian food is slop? It's a refined ancient tradition of slop, and I'm a hungry little piggie. I just wanted my slop real spicy

Just went to an indian restaurant and insistently asked for my meal really, really spicy, but was nonetheless disappointed. This is one of those things they don't warn you about when you become a Texan

@youngwerther123 It costs $20 to reserve a spot at state parks here, I have a decent job for now and this is still a cheap form of leisure but damn. Also these state parks have too many damn amenities, and they are also rolling out these mandatory online reservations at national parks too.

People are needlessly cruel in willfully misunderstanding the economic plight of young people. Sure don’t spend $30 on lunch but also older people could fuck up like that and still own a home. Society is decaying if only the top 10% in conscientiousness can hope for a decent life

@yumtapwater I used to live in the Northwest suburbs and work in south St. Paul, it involved getting on a bus to downtown MSP, riding the green line to Midway, then walking for an hour toward the river past St Thomas and Highland park

When I was a kid I thought Fridley was this far away land because my parents would say "ughhhh we have to drive all the way to FRIDLEY" turns out it's like 30 mins away

@blancmontagnard Actually I think being good at say pure math or some other theoretical STEM field is related to having a broken limbic system or anhedonia

Weird anecdotes from high tech troon geniuses I know; 1. Estrogen seems to make men somewhat better at math? 2. It can increase motivation kinda like a stimulant 3. It makes them both more 'empathetic' and histrionic and emotional while also kinda psycopathic? Similar to SSRI

@JoshRainerGold The Soviets believed in abiotic oil theory

Abiotic oil theory is like the most straightforward and sensical “conspiracy theory” I’ve ever seen like you explain that to anyone and they would go “is that not how oil works?”

@SuchIsLife_05 @rationalaussie Yes union reps are incentivized to extract as much rent as possible from union dues

@rationalaussie Hilarious take considering unions, taxes, welfare, public healthcare, subsidies, fines, labour laws and carbon pricing are all literally incentive structures. You just don’t like the incentives ya fkn bot

I have never met a single leftist who understands, or even believes in, incentive systems. They are quite literally incapable of understanding that level of abstraction. They think people just do stuff and that if you don't do good stuff for the world (they define what is good) you are a bad person. They have the worldview of a child.

@chrismckeever @tafphorisms If you were born in the 80s you are a millennial

@tafphorisms Look, older millennials (that used to be considered Gen X) have had to to endure this nonsense for what seems like our entire lives. We left the 90s only to run into these dorks like a brick wall in the 2000s.

Classic zoomer experience is having an aging millennial guy casually let you in his “cool” leftist politics like this.

@AdmiralCaleo @upstatefederlst No but Anglo-Castizos from wmlf households may be

@upstatefederlst Do you think that Mestizos and Indios(which are the vast overwhelming majority of hispanic immigrants) will be considered by any reasonable common-sense definition White?

It's really not meaningful identity outside of the US and maybe Canada, tbh. It's not like French and German and Russian people get along because they're all white.

@JacobAShell @ratapsst In Minnesota they just passed an additional 0.44% income tax to pay for subsidized childcare, and you just have to look at tax rates in Europe to see how healthcare will be handled (and check German homeownership rates for the consequences).

@ratapsst Yeah that's about right. But healthcare/childcare loom large as demands, that's been true for 20 years.

In a somewhat obscure provincial Chinese city right now. I stand by what I said about China a few years ago: it's "Second World plus Zeroeth World, without First World." You get out of the futuristic bullet train, hop a fence to get out of the train station bc the planners never thought hard about how to integrate the station with the real city...and then you're basically in a world of tuktuks and scooters. Another observation: the kinds of things US socialists want to socialize (childcare etc) are heavily marketized here. The kinds of things China does through communist central planning (trains, grand new urban parks, etc) US socialists don't really like doing at all because it's too "masculinist" or something.

@NunyaBisnaych @BongsMahlangu_ There is never a right time to have children

@BongsMahlangu_ Most of the country is living paycheck to paycheck and you fucktards think they should just go ahead and have children? “Be responsible” and when they do you castigate them. Pick a fucking lane.

l think a lot of millennial women are quietly grieving a life they thought they'd have by now.
