  • They’re describing a job in that scenario too lol.

    Yes, people lose their shit once they stop doing their job lol. Landlords in their version are effectively building mechanics and paper pushers keeping their property above board so people can live in it. Most of them I knew all had jobs outside of it too because it doesn’t pay the bills lol.

    Yes, it would be phenomenal if they dropped all their extra money into the stock market like your average person but they diversified or put it into equity instead since they didn’t trust stock or had houses willed to them.

    I get when people talk about slumlords, or giant corpos. But I’ve had to quote it before that the lionshare of them are people like I mentioned above with corpos buying out more and more in recent years because they’re just as poor as everyone else.

    Meanwhile even the most liberal people on here get baited thinking they’re scum. Meanwhile billionaires are still laughing at the poors fighting each other thinking one job is better than other or villifying entire professions still.

    Unionize. Reform land and property ownership. Vote in as many Progressive > Democrats to help make that happen. Vote yes on school ballot measures even if you get taxes. Run for government yourself if you loathe who represents you. Grassroot campaigns are hard as hell with a huge uphill battle, but poor people aren’t excluded from government.


  • I mean, for the most part yeah. With bare bones minimum interaction babies are pretty manageable.

    Feed them five times a day. Clean five times a day. Pretty much watch them grow on their own until they gain proper sapience around that year mark. Just don’t go full Potter and you’ll be good. Get earplugs for the times when you really need sleep and keep to a schedule.

    After that year, and more like 1.5 years, you gotta put in some more effort but even then, it really doesn’t matter near as much as the internet would have you think. Nature beats Nurture in almost all categories by a sound margin.




  • Look it’s just kid slang. Just because I have a cotton candy flavored condom in my pocket, three packets of cherry lube, a six pack of wine coolers and 12 pack of birthday cake vodka shots doesn’t mean it’s any different from when I use a piece of rabbit skin I rub on my dick every night to fall asleep.

    Admittedly, you look and sound much older than I remember but you’re still 14 right?








  • Like the Man who in buying an Ax of a Smith my neighbor, desired to have the whole of its Surface as bright as the Edge; the Smith consented to grind it bright for him if he would turn the Wheel. He turn’d while the Smith press’d the broad Face of the Ax hard & heavily on the Stone, which made the Turning of it very fatiguing. The Man came every now & then from the Wheel to see how the Work went on; and at length would take his Ax as it was without farther Grinding. No, says the Smith, Turn on, turn on; we shall have it bright by and by; as yet ’tis only speckled. Yes, says the Man; but—I think I like a speckled Ax best.

    And I believe this may have been the Case with many who having for want of some such Means as I employ’d found the Difficulty of obtaining good, & breaking bad Habits, in other Points of Vice & Virtue, have given up the Struggle, & concluded that a speckled Ax was best.

    Relevant portion. Previous stuff is the usual be more efficient and good.

    Me: Salty banana eating hydro homie still in fear of stretching too much in bed which will cause the calf or foot cramp.

    Foot cramps are worse. Calf cramp pain lasts for days.

    The bending or stretching doesn’t work if you don’t get to it fast enough. There’s only so much bending with a muscle so taut Richard Simmons would give it a respectable nod from the afterlife.
