Whatever psychopath decided that appliances should beep and play songs will be named in my suicide note.

Yeah that wasn't my point, but you do you.

I'm not asking for a cookie. I'm saying that associating with Nazis is a choice. It's not a normal phase and it shouldn't be normalized.

I grew up in a conservative exburb of SC in the 90s when we still had the confederate flag and I don't know anybody with a Nazi tattoo. I'm sure they were around, and perhaps I interacted with some, but I wasn't friendly enough with anybody to know it. It's not a universal experience.

This is my recipe: 2-3 sweet potatoes,
1/2 cup chopped pecans, 2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt, 2 tbs butter, 1 tbs brown sugar. Boil potatoes until soft and remove skins. Mash and blend with seasonings. Place in
baking dish, top with pecans, and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Sweet potatoes get butter and cinnamon and pecans. IDK where that marshmallow shit came from but it is a crime against nature.

If you're defending the bombing of civilians of an illegally occupied territory you are an objectively bad human being.

Ask them to compare and contrast the economic policies of Johnson and Clinton. Because Clinton is further right than Eisenhower.

Why is this framed as a bad thing? Seems great. Wish they'd fix the fucking potholes in South Carolina.

I met an old man recently who inherited an old house downtown, and when his mother-in-law was elderly/sick they had to install an elevator, and the city required architects for both interior and exterior. Not even one of the historic mansions, just a random 1800s family home.

I don't even particularly love the White House as an architectural piece, but South Carolinians went apeshit a while ago when the Historic Charleston Foundation considered selling the Nathaniel Russell House, so it's a bit nuts that this is something that's doable.

Libs need to understand that their goals and worldview are simply not the same and not even remotely compatible with the goals and worldview of Leftists. You either want to abolish the class-based exploitation that inevitably culminates into Fascism or you do not.

New York is already gorgeous. Deco and Beaux Arts was peak architecture.

I mean, renter class vs. owner class is what left vs. right technically means. The left represents the renters and the people, the right represents the owners and top of the hierarchy.

For the older people, did they throw out their old CDs and delete MP3s from their harddrives? Because I've accumulated 4 decades of music and that is honestly plenty to listen to without Spotify. And for any new stuff, I would still rather just buy an artist's album, even in digital form.

And so on and so on. This isn't sustainable. The banana orchard is only so big and cannot keep producing more bananas. There isn't enough daylight for the monkeys to pick enough bananas for both themselves and the gorilla. What the ever loving fuck is one gorilla doing with 900 rotting bananas?

But the next week, Gorilla Capitalist wants higher profit, so he keeps 90 percent, so in order to survive, the monkeys have to increase their banana picking to 1000, while the Gorilla Capitalist pockets 900 for himself.

In Gorilla Capitalism, a private, individual gorilla owns the banana orchard and pays the monkeys 20 bananas while he keeps 80. In order to feed everyone, the monkeys would have to pick 500 bananas, while the Gorilla Capitalist ends up with 400.

I want to illustrate a children's book about Monkey Communism. If a community of monkeys needs 100 bananas a week to survive, under Monkey Communism, the monkeys pitch in on picking the bananas and once they gather 100 and everyone's needs are met, they can chill the rest of the week.

Capitalism is what's unsustainable because a never-ending exponential rate of growth is mathematically impossible. The goal of Communism is to eliminate the class that hoards our excess labor value in the form of profit and to create a sustainable manner of producing our needs.

Entitlements aren't free stuff. We produce them, they belong to us. They're sustainable in a mode of production designed to fulfill them. The reason they aren't sustainable in Europe is because the Capitalism demands exponential profit, so they don't have enough for both profit and basic needs.
