brushing our teeth

yeah life coaches are unregulated and therefore extremely likely to be a scam or some earnest wanker who will make you worse with bad advice like manifesting, bootstraps mentality, or other impossible bullshit.

blockers are safe, growing up in a world full of bigots like you is not

oh wow, a wrong question

be socialists and make any machine learning models trained on us unpalatable to investors

wear red and black pajamas everywhere and start drinking earl grey

you misspelled socialism. ubi and landlords can’t coexist.

maybe a little late for “currently” but somebody will probably be into the bendy tube aesthetic of compact fluorescent bulbs

star trek is optimistic about the future and that’s basically nonexistent in post-cold war SF

Taxpayer money funding government budget is fairly accurate

you can print money up to the natural resource+ labor output of a nation-state and nobody is printing that much money.

where did the 20,000 per person per year for all those years the US spent on its wars in iraq and afghanistan come from? it wasn’t tax revenue.

and supported by taxpayers money;

nah our national taxes don’t pay for anything, a sovereign government prints fiat money before anyone pays any tax and part of what gives that money any real value is that it’s accepted as payment for debts owed to that sovereign.

two sentences is hardly a rant and there are plenty of quotes from american officials and armchair generals about how this war is great because it’s degrading “our enemy” without costing american lives.

federation isn’t brigading. a post shows up in our feeds, we click on it and comment because helping people dodge the draft is cool and good. We’re one of the largest instances, and the consensus we have on issues like “conscription is bad” should not be taken as coordination on the part of hexbear users. If we did deliberately coordinate we’d all link you clowns to the thread where we did it because it would be funny.

for the americans, that’s 12/12/12
