You only say things are fine bc it doesn't affect you personally that much. Also please stop claiming that Biden has improved anything other than AIPAC's grip on our tax dollars.
No I want both of them to unalive, preferably as violently as possible. Unemployment is a vastly flawed metric that doesn't account for underemployment or discouraged workers, and real wages would be significantly down if the government was accurately measuring inflation, which they're intentionally not doing so they can continue to pretend that everything's fine.
I grew up in Ohio and seen a million places just like this, so I must reiterate the original question of wtf do you think Michigan looks like lmao
The economy is booming
For who? The American people are struggling. Meanwhile the wealth gap is wider than it's literally ever been and Biden is too busy bombing brown children to give a shit
The problem it was never a joke, it was always barely conscious retards saying "Let's go Brandon" thinking it was some kind of clever inside joke and that no one knew what they were actually saying
Oh no, it's so hard to come up with different words to get the pretty image I want!!1!1!1!!1! It's not hard, you're just a dumbass who thinks your effort is more valuable than it is
What internet are y'all living on where shitposting was never creative or interesting?
My fault, I didn't know I was talking to Yuri. Sorry for wasting my time talking to you
I mean personally what bothers me about it is that it's all AI-generated. Personally seeing an AI image just kills any potential humor. Even the lowest effort of slapping two images on top of each other in PowerPoint would be preferable. And in fact the lack of effort in and of itself can be funny there too. But there's nothing creative or interesting about asking an AI image generator to make a funny image imo
You literally said in your post that America is not that bad and that there's somehow a world of difference between different states, I'm just stating facts about how everything about those statements is bullshit. You can be mad about that if you want but you can't claim it's not that bad here when it's literally worse than every developed nation
I've almost never felt like a European was talking down to me. If you feel like you're experiencing that often, maybe there's a reason. I know self-reflection is hard for you, our school system propagandizes our children to never do such a thing, but I believe that you can change for the better.
I mean if you wanna play this game, our public education also is not up to the standards of those countries, unless you're comparing to Bosnia instead of Germany for some odd reason. Yes, especially in those states you mentioned. Also those states are still subject to the American healthcare system. And those states, possibly excluding VT, have a much higher rate of poverty and homelessness than any developed nation in Europe. All of these things are enough to destroy your argument by themselves, but when added up you have no legs to stand on
I find it hard to believe that Vermont Colorado and California even fit in with Western European standards considering the absolute lack of any useful public transportation in any of those states. Even NY only resembles Europe in NYC, upstate NY is some of the worst parts of the US to live in.
American here, these discussions have absolutely no bearing on anything. The US propaganda machine will keep churning regardless of what any of us think, our lawmakers are only doing the bidding of the corporate ruling class and if they try to go against that grain they're blackballed from politics basically forever. I'm glad some Europeans see through the propaganda but many non-Americans truly don't understand how bad it is here and still to this day move here seeking "freedom" that no longer exists (and arguably never did). Honestly the guy who made this post is at best a bad faith troll parroting twenty year old talking points to distract people and piss them off. Anyone with access to Google should know that the cultural distinction between the bay area and Chicago are smaller than the distinction between Sussex and Manchester. Calling OP a fucking dumbass is both an understatement and unproductive, but it's no less productive than any comment actually trying to change OP's mind about such an uneducated opinion.
What if I like Weezer, nine inch nails, Radiohead, AND pre 2013 Kanye?
I really don't want to Google this one. I finally stopped getting tired of California Dreaming
Yeah totally. But if you dare even insinuate that Japan was anything other than a victim of WW2, the public outcry is so massive that you will be forced to publicly apologize and denounce your previous statement
The lack of imperial Japan in this image is disturbing
It's more so Japanese models that do this, since pornography is completely banned in China. In Japan porn is obviously widespread but there's heavy restrictions on the actual genitalia hence why most of them use pixelation censors
I worked as a cameraman in college for about a year and a half. Your producer can see every angle from every camera simultaneously. So depending on the producer, you'd either get chewed out or get big laughs for doing this. But people still did it all the time regardless
Manzardo for Civale - deal done
Well, not sure what to say about this trade. I like Civale but we're certainly selling high, and I would think we could get more than just one prospect in return, especially with how much team control is left for Civale. Manzardo could replace Bell if he develops, or even Naylor (but hopefully not).
It also seems like the FO may have given up on the 23 season, which is somewhat understandable given the starting pitching injuries but difficult to swallow given we didn't trade Bieber and we're still in contention for the division.
Guardians top the Sox 5-0 to split the series
Not sure why the bots acting up, but I was at two of the games this series (our two wins, sorry for not going to all four).
This was the first game this year that I got to see Josey play well, he struggled or didn't play every other game I saw live.
Arias did get a hit but still looked pretty bad. Gonzalez had a walk, maybe finally beating the impatient hitter allegations?
What'd you guys think of this series?
Rough game today boys :(
Honestly it was a tough one to listen to. I hope this isn't the start of a backslide, but this Padres pen really seems to have our number.
Is it possible to list all communities on an instance other than your home instance?
I just found out @Midwest.social exists after finding the Chicago community there. I was trying to list out other communities on that instance and couldn't quite figure it out. Do I have to visit Midwest.social in order to list them, or is there a way to do it from lemmy.world?
