“shitflation”

wow great content

what’s wrong with her face

There’s a lot of misinformation about this event, which was formally acknowledged by the USA fairly recently. He did leave unharmed, I was surprised to hear anybody thought otherwise. However, you are stretching credulity by claiming he was pro-government. Seeing as he was never located, I can at least concede that neither of us know what he was thinking at the time.

no that’s just silly

Now that I can certainly agree with.

Having watched the video it does look rather fascist, can’t quite believe it.

Did that actually happen?

I think there might be some subversive ambiguity or double-meanings in there:

工作日的我，是时间的奴隶；
休息日的我，是时间的主人。

my workdays, I’m time slave;
my rest days, I’m time owner

Maybe I’m an idiot but I thought he was dabbing.

“now kiss”

Massive reach.

I think a very stoned guy posted a picture of his extremely thick glasses on Reddit once, the lack of additional context made it quite funny.

Weird, so did I.

Don’t chew your food with your mouth open, holy shit Michael where are your manners

of this I am certain

I just bought some local honey. Don’t know what this shit is, hopefully I never will.

I’m genuinely not sure what the ethical position is. Maybe they are. Having watched a generation squander the massive wealth gains of what will likely be a unique economic boom, I don’t necessarily think the consumption of that wealth in the name of “living” - often a euphemism for hedonism - is something to be celebrated.

How can we be reaching this conclusion, with all the accumulated wealth in the world? How can we be seriously believing everybody should start at zero? I can’t believe what I’m reading here. Generational wealth is absolutely a thing, we inherit everything from the past. As a species, we inherit the wealth of the previous generation. Where are we imagining it goes? Given that it exists, why are we not entitled to benefit from it? There is so much wealth in the global economy, the issue is of distribution.

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to pass the product of your entire life to your offspring, surely. We can’t be so atomised. Where do you think it should go? Inheriting an empire is one thing, but why shouldn’t you be able to give your own house to your child? I say this as somebody disowned by their father.
