“immigration is why our lives are getting worse”

Very clear indicator that someone has barely attempted to understand how the world works

If there was actually ever any left wing terrorism in the modern day, you would genuinely never hear the end of it

It would be bigger in the media than hurricane Katrina

I try to do every 6 weeks

If I’m going to a wedding or something at the 4+ week mark I’ll get it done early

If I don’t get it done until 8+ weeks it starts to get into an unmanageably scruffy zone

Billionaires need people to think the problem is immigrants and them not realising it’s billionaires simply existing that’s breaking everything.

We need to tax billionaires out of existence or they will very quickly own everything there is to own.

The alternative to doing this is 99% of people in permanent poverty. Unless you have several million in the bank, that includes you.

Absolute fucking morons.

Every single one of those people is going to end up in poverty as a direct result of who they want to elect.

I mean he’s just happy that people aren’t asking why he’s such a massive pedo

Both are possible

Dystopia is just more likely because it can be achieved through inaction

If they don’t, they’re owed and should probably go and claim their compensation

Oh it’s phenomenal, don’t get me wrong, it just has to be an uncommon treat for longevity reasons

A number of years ago, I lived near a greasy spoon cafe that did a sort of breakfast club sandwich situation with fried toast as the middle bread layer and the rest of the fry up distributed between the two decks of the sandwich

I don’t think I’ve ever been more set up for a day than after having that, though I’m pretty sure it would have been my daily allowance of everything

Honestly

I’m obviously biased as a Brit, but anyone who can look me in the eye after having the experience of a full English (or Scottish/Irish, a proper full Welsh is definitely a subject of understandably niche interest) breakfast and a good Sunday roast, and say we have shit food here is frankly a bit of a philistine.

And there’s more to the chippy than fish and chips

Edit: on re-read, I’m realising you might not be fully on board, have a proper one and you’ll understand. Also, I’ll have you know, we don’t fry our beans, and fried toast is a Christmas luxury

“people skills”

Those are by far the most suspicious quotes I’ve ever seen

Yep that’s exactly it, it’s hard to convince people to pay for any service on the internet, let alone for something like privacy that many users have been conditioned to not value at all.

Big tech in 2025 makes its money from invading privacy and there’s an increasing demographic of users that don’t see any value in protecting their data from harvesting for some reason

You only have to look at a company like proton who provide a pretty comprehensive suite of privacy focussed software, and yet they’re still very much a niche player in the wider tech industry

The reason is greed, wealth facilitates the accumulation of more wealth.

Significant wealth needs to be taxed asap or the next generation will know nothing but perpetual poverty from birth until death.

What an odious creature

Vision is the opposite of blindness, no?

Surely if the spectrum exists for one it must exist for the other?

0 becomes 100 and 100 becomes zero

0% blind is perfect vision, 100% blind is no vision

Surely vision is a spectrum with everyone on it.

One end “better than 20-20” on the other “only darkness”

I wish I had the time to get all my own errands done, let alone helping a friend with theirs.

Maybe it’s just me, but I need shit in my calendar at least a couple of weeks prior if I’m gonna be able to make it, and the only kinds of chores people really plan that far ahead is going to be moving stuff (which I funnily do actually end up doing a lot with friends)

100% let’s just put a meal in the calendar, doesn’t have to be expensive and I’ll actually be able to focus on the conversation rather than some task.

Photography is subjective, there are no objectively bad photos

Perhaps they’re less common round by you, but over in the UK you see polypores like this all through autumn if you ramble about in wooded areas

“Chicken of the woods” is a somewhat common one that is pretty tasty (though that’s not what this one is)
