McDonalds have forgotten their place. We dont go there because the food is good, we go there because we were able to fill ourselves up on pocket change.

McDoubles are $3.79 where I am. The fuck is that?!?

Because media litteracy and critical thinking are not subjects taught being taught in schools.

Inquisitive and skeptical minds do not make for good worker drones.

If you give someone $20, chances are that, yeah, they will spend it on some quick and cheap comfort to improve their lives in the short term (fast food, alcohol, drugs, etc.). But if you give someone a sizeable sum that will actually help them plan for a better future, the vast majority of people will do just that.

But that really goes against the whole “poverty is the result of a moral failing” concept that capitalist throught had been hammering into our heads for decades, so we certainly can’t be promoting that fact.

The choice to do so, yes. Not the material conditions that make it absolutely necessary for both parents to work full time just to stay afloat.

Cool, so people are interested in making it worse? Lol.

I take it you never used a tape player or VCR.

Thats… exactly what I’m saying?

Jordan Peterson, who has gained international fame for his bestselling self-help books and lectures

False. He did not gain any fame or notoriety until he threw a hissy fit about “compelled speech” when UofT asked him to use people’s preferred pronouns, and became the darling of the right wing talking heads.

Awr nawr!

This was funny until I had to think of at least a dozen countries before I could remember one with and R in it lol.

Good point. I guess I should have made the distinction, thanks!

I did not know that. I guess most places don’t, either, and decide to just let the animals in rather than deal with any discrimination lawsuits.

A Salty Piece of Land by Jimmy Buffett… No, seriously.

He has the reputation as “the patron saint of drunken uncle beach bums”, but if you dig into his earlier catalogue, its rife with beautiful, lyrical storytelling songcraft. When you consider that, itss no suprise that he can write a decent book.

Some shitheels have been bringing their dogs into non-dog spaces under the guise of being “an emotional support animal”.

While there are some very specific instances where emotional support animals are a thing (PTSD, severe anxiety disorders, etc.) it did not become widespread until Karens started using it as loophole to bring their dogs into grocery stores, restaurants, and many other places where dogs werent allowed before.
