New poly discourse dropping
  • Without taking the mental damage of looking at the actual article, I'm guessing this is just rebranding either having multiple jobs or having extra responsibilities in your one job.

  • I wonder if being the world's most famous groyper has consequences when you own an electric car company
  • Makes perfect sense when you see some of the build quality.

    Why buy some shoddy slapped together EV at luxury prices when actual car manufacturers have EV options.

  • Can they tho?
  • Taking a shitty electric truck to a place that's largely without power seems like a poor idea.

  • Troding over the dead and dying to rescue some cheap cloth imported from China
  • Thousands of people are literally stranded

    Let's stop and pick up this tattered cloth to make sure it's safe. amerikkka-clap

  • The U.S. Navy is preparing for the possibility of military action against China by 2027. This was reported in the Navigation Plan by U.S. Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Lisa Franchetti.
  • I was under the impression that "war with China" was at the top of the plans for over a decade now. I definitely remember seeing stuff like this years ago, and all that's changed is the US is even more reliant on Chinese imports.

    Is a war-time economy still good if your manufacturing sector can't get 2/3rds of its raw materials?

  • Does anyone else get really anxious when you get downtime at work?
  • By my estimation, half of white collar jobs are like this and everyone just engages in theater about how busy they are

    This is common in a lot of blue collar manufacturing jobs I've had too. Gotta milk the work and get it done as close to the expectation as possible or else you're rewarded with more work and higher expectations.

    Always been a huge point of frustration for me since I like to get a good pace going and stay busy since it makes the shift go by faster, but then I have to arbitrarily slow down to keep from giving the boss man the wrong idea.

  • No AI apocalypse.
  • I've kinda seen this in manufacturing for the last few years. Not explicitly "AI" but newer equipment designed around being smarter and not requiring skilled operators. Think like WordPress but for industrial machines; it might do basic stuff pretty well but fails at complex operations, and it's an atrocity if you ever look behind the scenes to do some troubleshooting.

    The west has fallen. Rise up, g@mers.
  • hyper-exaggerated, racist caricatures of 19th century Americans.

    It's literally impossible to exaggerate the racism of 19th century Americans.

  • (cw boobs) Posting memories from late 90's to late 2000's everyday until I get bored, day 2 - Janet Jackson at the Superbowl
  • This was a big deal for us because my dad had just bought a "TiVo" like a month before, so we could watch and replay this in real time like some magic space wizards.

  • Im vooooting ooooaaaahhuhuuhhhgh
  • The things is, Dems could have given us a single payer system but they specifically chose not to. They could have completely removed the risk of losing healthcare for everyone but they chose not to.

  • Lmao
  • Poor guy didn't realize the mall ninja store was replaced with an Adam and Eve until he was half way home with the whip and handcuffs.

  • Lmao
  • It's the tactical box cutter and whip that makes this illegal. Take those out and add in 4 more guns and everything would be fine.

  • 4 days in and we are already back to pell grants recipients
  • This is informally already a thing. Most lenders largely ignore medical debt so they can lend more and take in those sweet interest payments.

  • Voting is maintenance. Voting is self-care. Voting is exercise. Voting helps mental health. Voting is showering with dysphoria. Vote for 99% Hitler.
  • I'll always drop the exception that it's potentially worth voting in local politics, particularly in small remote communities. These vary in frequency and often don't always overlap the major elections and are largely ignored.

    City and county positions can have a real tangible impact on your daily life and the amount of votes to swing these elections can be really small in a lot of America. It's still an uphill battle against landlords and small business tyrants, but it's something real local organizing can overcome.

    [CW: Transphobia] help I can't stop making lazy memes
  • This one made more sense in my brain

    This actually hits pretty good for me, having lived in rural religious hellhole america most of my life. Had to learn pretty early on how to regulate my vocabulary to keep many of my peers from going red and fuming.

  • Seven-story building on the Great Highway to house homeless people. Neighbors are pissed
  • In my area they just finished a bunch of low income duplexes in a utilitarian metal building style. Not necessarily a bunch of pushback, but there's loads of negativity over the look and style; purely superficial shit.

    I find it funny because those low income metal buildings are gonna outlast the quarter to half a million dollar groverhaus communities that are popping up everywhere here.

  • What are you watching instead of the debate?
  • Probably One Piece with my wife since she got into it a few weeks ago.

  • My cat is disgusting and it’s all Communism’s fault
  • One of mine absolutely loves to shover her head down shoes. Sometimes she gets a little stuck and it sounds like a one legged man is hopping around my kitchen at 3am.

  • Uh oh. DPRK is a slave state according to liberal NGO 😱
  • It doesn't count when you're the Good Guys.
