Every modern “capitalist” is just a wanton neo-feudalist. They don’t want to compete with other capitalists; they want to be feudal lords from whom the peasants (and capitalists) must rent their tools and resources and pay forever; they want the government to cement their fiefdoms forever.

I hope it all burns.

Are you saying for me? Cuz facebook sucks ass too.

I remember the old Internet. Honestly, lemmy is the only thing I’ve encountered that feels even like the newer part of the old Internet.

The only fast food I enjoyed in recent memory was Pizza Hut. During some scare about MSG they removed all of the MSG and I ordered it a time or two after that and it was nearly inedible.

I suspect similar things happened with other types of fast food. I think there’s a flanderization effect happening with a lot of it. The same is definitively not the case for things like pizza in general, as I can order from my local NY-style pizza place and pizza is still just as good as it ever was.

All that is to say it wouldn’t surprise me at all if fast food was objectively shittier across a number of different metrics.

Lol, nothing like waiting until the last possible moment to do the tiniest thing that won’t even accomplish anything at this point and then writing an article about it.

I just tried that…went searching for a room and amongst some software package rooms the two I stumbled upon that made me nope the fuck out are “COVID-19 truth” or similar, and some pro-trump mafia thing that had the n-word in its description. I tried to search for something even in the state of california and the closest I got was a gay hookup channel.

Thanks, I fucking hate the Internet now.

Narrator: they ruined it

If that’s their takeaway, then we’re doomed

Hate to break it to you, but we’re doomed. We voted in a fascist.

The best we can hope for is that Trump is less vicious than his rhetoric or that his incompetence prevents him from doing the many awful things he promised on the campaign trail.

There is no worse outcome.

This reminds me of a joke about Russian history.

Russian history in 5 words:

And then things got worse.

Hope you stocked up on masks, folks. Having Mr. Bear meat in charge of public health and Mr. Tariffs in charge of the economy if another pandemic occurs is going to be a wild ride and with a four year term minimum we’ll be strapped in for the duration.

From watching 90s movies and of course without reading anything but the headline, I’m going to guess the challenger is a dog. “Airbud: Hungary” here we go!

One of our nation’s top doormats! Hope you learned how to drink water on camera without looking like a psycho, Little Marco.

For now

My condo has one. I use it.

Oh thank Moses I was wondering when all the flood of people telling me to not have kids was gonna stop! /s

The American electorate is nothing if not incoherent.

Viewing politics as a spectator sport is certainly the fault of a misinformed, unenlightened electorate. The crappy candidates continue to pop up because that’s the best our corporate trash parties can do with political couch potatoes that are less interested in whether or not their neighbors suffer and die than about which walking cosmetic surgery mishap was a bitch at brunch, or which bimbo was chosen on the bachelor.

Trump himself is even a product of this couch potato culture and was well known before running for office for being the biggest, baddest boss of them all in a reality TV game show full of complete idiots pretending to run companies in front of cameras for the prize of a fictional job at a scam corporation.

What in the sweet ever loving fuck is this shit?

State mandated helicopter parenting?

Maybe our bones will create a new layer in the Earth that’ll be covered over and the earths ecosystem will degenerate and eventually recreate itself billions of years later, leaving a future race of newly evolved, curious species to crawl out of the ensuing muck to find in us a great energy source trapped underground and drill it to the surface for use.

Yeah everyone forgets their heroine Elizabeth Warren felt it was a good idea to talk shit about Bernie every chance she got and further reduced his chances by dropping out last minute.
