Considering the US literally couped Australia when their prime minister refused to give unconditional support for a spy base, this is small fry!

p.s. that military base in Australia now exists, the US has full autonomous control of it, stations soldiers there, and the antennae currently guiding the Israeli missiles leveling Gaza

Frankly I’m surprised they haven’t already. Colliders absolutely shit out discoveries whenever you open a new more powerful ring. Happened with Fermilab and the LHC.

It’s the game I would have hated as a young adult but absolutely love as a… less young adult.

It’s a bit psychopathic but if you know you need electrolytes, can’t really beat a little salt in some water. Like just a pinch.

Best part is it’s nearly free!

The cruelest part of late stage capitalism is that these immigrants would probably have enjoyed a better life back home.

Sure many are refugees escaping violence or truly desperate conditions.

But many are also normal-ass people that were sold the lie of the Western/American dream. People that struggle to learn English in adulthood (much harder than as a child), have no specialized degree or skill, and no family in the states.

People that could have joined the normal working class at home with less debt, less stress, and less discrimination and led mostly normal lives in their own culture.

Sure the Western consumer has nice electronics and Nike shoes, etc. But everyone seems to be in denial about the impending collapse of the entire economy and how dire the lives of the workers are right now.

It’s going to be a rough century and it’s only getting started.

I can’t speak for the neighborhoods you hang out in but the USA car bubble is fucking insane right now.

People making $26 an hour in SoCal (where rent is $2400) regularly buy $70,000 trucks ($150,000 if you count interest), mustang GTs, top-trim/model Wranglers, GLAs. Spending >$50k on a car is normal for the working class when they don’t even own homes yet.

Complete insanity. I used to think the ‘collapse’ folks were full of shit. Turns out they were just early.

My favorite part of this debacle are the liberals and conservatives uniting (funny how often they’re doing that these days) to mourn the great senseless smearing of this priceless historical artifact.

The historical artifact that has been completely refurbished, rebuilt, re-assembled with heavy equipment, and literally cast into modern concrete foundations multiple times since the 1960s.

In fact the veracity of the historical thesis is in doubt these days as well, it’s more likely some eccentric ass put these up in relatively modern times a few hundred years ago.

Their efforts are futile and disruptive, yes. So is the fucking climate change that is literally guaranteed to collapse modern civilization within 50 years.

Appeasing fascists backfiring on liberals who now stand alone, having driven off the left

A tale as old as time

I think it’s literally just pointing at which way to install the tire.

Like it’s just an arrow pointing to the literal front of the bike, not indicating rotation. It’s just an unintuitive design.

Also Jesus, nice CAAD12 lol. Enjoy!

“Depression” in a medical context is not something that simply goes away. The cause is not a stressor such as exams. It is an unnatural imbalance of chemicals in your brain. This can only be treated by medication, or you can mask and adapt to learn to live with it.

I’m sure stressors can trigger episodes of more severe symptoms but one does not simply “problem solve” away depression.

This is not to say you have medical depression. However, if you notice this feeling does not go away, it may be time to consult your doctor as this is no replacement for medical advice.

Imagine being this deranged

No, seriously, imagine it yall. Having no grip on what is or is not true, genuinely believing vaccines destroy health, it’s fucking mental.

Imagine that being your reality, every day you wake up. Completely unable to filter lies from fact. Incredible. Like, what else do they have going on in their life that is just completely insane lmao.

I hope the suffering doesn’t last too long.
