Sales are down 60%. We’re losing billions of dollars each year. But that’s ok because somewhere there is an ancient cup, and it is very magical

"The concentration camp was never the normal condition for the average gentile German. Unless one was Jewish, or poor and unemploved, or actively leftist or otherwise openly anti-Nazi, Germany from 1933 until well into the war was not a nightmarish place. All the "good Germans" had to do was obey the law, pay their taxes, give their sons to the army, avoid any sign of political heterodoxy, and look the other way when unions were busted and troublesome people disappeared. 
Since many "middle Americans" already obey the law, pay their taxes, give their sons to the army, are themselves distrustful of political heterodoxy, and applaud when unions are broken and troublesome people are disposed of, they probably could live without too much personal torment in a fascist state - some of them certainly seem eager to do so."

(smugly) oh you *loved* Park Chan-wook's 2022 dark comedy thriller Decision to Leave? well where are the memes about it? how come i don't see people dressing up as the characters? why isn't there a popular AAA open world video game based on it? guess it's not so good after all, huh

bitice to open, the Calpaign diso neaps stock a community fridge available any time of day and hosts drives to collect specific supplies. A request for tampons for Chicago's Period Collective, for example, resulted in a massive outpouring of support. "We ended up getting over 5,600, and my campaign manager's car was just filled with tampons," said Abughazaleh through laughter. "I wanted him to get pulled over so bad."
The point here is to "show" the campaign's values through providing for the community, rather than simply telling

Not for nothing, but men using tampons as a joke to dismiss a program as "not serious" is a really classic misogynist trope. We can all see what's happening here.

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds.
Your life is just a series of your own
preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day
