That’s what I assumed also. They basically look the same in general

But that rug really ties the room together, man!

Likewise, have a great time with your fantasies of revolution or whatever.

Could it be that you just don’t want to admit that you can’t do anything about it?

As for me, I don’t have any responsibility to push onto others about it. I accept the things that cannot change, and I have adapted to survive in the environment that I live in, and things are going generally well.

So what are you gonna do about it then? In reality.

Blaming “capitalism” for all of society’s problems is about as useful as blaming God or some gremlins. For example, if you’re in the USA and you blame “capitalism” for your problems, then what are you gonna do about it? There is no path to change this society from capitalism to socialism or communism. We have entire armies of military and police who will ensure that the status quo stays in place. You also can’t vote your way out of this. No candidates advocating such changes will be elected.

The best thing we can do is aim for better regulation of the systems that have allowed for the oligarchy to take it all over. Which won’t be easy or quick at all but is at least somewhat possible.

I’m in the USA and I get 3 weeks paid vacation, 10 paid holidays, and 2 “personal days” which are also PTO, and more sick time than I am ever able to use up. I think I have over 200 hours of sick leave PTO accrued.

This is not a basic entry-level job though, it’s after climbing the career ladder for years. It would be much nicer for our country’s folks if everyone was allowed as much PTO by all jobs.

Making any excuse to not learn how analog clocks work is what’s really a weak assertion. It’s not that fucking hard.

Sounds like you just didn’t understand. Each hour of the 12 on the clock takes up 30° of the circle, and we measure time in cycles of hours, minutes, seconds that all match up well with the 360° of a circle.

It helps give people a geometrical understanding of the cyclic nature of time.

Yeah, I set the toaster on fire once also. I had read online that you can make cheese toast in there if you turn the toaster sideways so that the cheese is on top vs gravity. It might have worked if the toaster hadn’t caught fire. I had to throw it out the front door into the yard

Audiobooks are also passive listening which is not cognitively absorbed as thoroughly as active reading. IMO you have not “read” a book if you just listened to someone read it to you. Reading with your own eyes engages more thinking processes, forcing the reader to think more about what they’ve read.

LOL right, tell yourself whatever you need to

So are you people in this meme just on your phone all day looking at stupid phone apps? God, what a waste of life.

Smartphones are just boring little tools guys. Don’t make it your life. Be a real nerd, get a PC, and surf the web where there are no limitations set by apps. Play some video games, look at porn sites, do some online shopping or whatever. If you’re done with all that, go outside and ride a bike or something.

I’ll be fine, because I have access to quality healthcare here in the USA, like I’ve been saying already.

You could really use some work on your tact. Perhaps you could get some mental health treatment in your healthcare utopia there.

I’ll give one tip for free: if you want to gain the sympathy of someone you’re speaking to, you don’t tell them “fuck you” at all, because that is quite tactless.

Nowhere did I ever say anything like that. Not once did I say “the American healthcare system is perfect” or great or even good.

What I said already is still there where I said it before. Please do not make up your own interpretations of my words, because you cannot speak for me.
