  • I am literally jealous that Ukraine has a strong backboned leader who doesn’t lose his moral compass and won’t be pushed around.

    Meanwhile, we get a leader so weak that he looks over paperwork drafted by himself 6 years ago, calls it a disgrace, and says whomever drafted it should be ashamed. Not remembering it’s HIS paperwork from his 1st term!

    Now granted, I’m not jealous of the war with Russia. My heart goes out to every Ukrainian. I just wish Biden would have had the spine to send troops in, and I’m completely embarassed on every level that HE represents my country/me.

    And obviously putin is just a shithead.











  • Ok. The guy is crazy with his kids. Whatever the kids imagine, thats the game. My niece once told me we were playing “Twinkle Spiral”. Then we held out our arms spin in a circle while running around the room spinning. It’s been 10 years, and apperently I won. I still have no idea what the game even was.

    The cat he’s just being lazy. You put some double sided sticky take down on the floor in the shape of a maze. Then you keep the toy upwards, so the cat is always looking up. Now you guide the cat so she never looks down, and navigates the maze while not stepping on the tape.

    And his wife? Well she’s just a prude. A card based system could TOTALLY spice up the bedroom. Oh, you drew this card. Lets see what you gotta do. Looks like you’re getting tied up and tickled for 10 minutes. Ok, my turn to draw a card. Looks like I gotta lick your butthole until you cum…and you’re still tied up, so you can’t help! Ohh nooooooooo…slurp slurp slurp


  • I never figured out why Paris Hilton’s sex tape was relevant at the time. Before the sex tape she wasn’t a public figure, or a celebrity. She was just daughter to the Hilton hotels founder. So why would anyone treat THIS sex tape like the Pam Anderson/Tommy Lee sex tape? Pam and Tommy were both celebrities BEFORE the tape was leaked. But Paris? Nobody knew who she was.

    Or the same thing with the Kardashians. Nobody knew them before the sex tape. I still don’t know why people would care about them.

    I guess what I’m asking here, is did tate ever have a sex tape leaked where some guy came all over his face while he was sucking it off? Apperently if you leak that sex tape, even talentless hacks can become celebrities.

    Although…fair play to Paris. She’s actually quite smart and doesn’t deserve to be labeled in the same camp as tate.


  • …ignorance truely is bliss. I wish I never heard of andrew tate. Oh man, the amount of appauling, cringe inducing things you get to hear from him for the first time???

    You know how when you meet someone who’s never seen your favorite movie that you’ve watched 800+ times, and you’re jealous they get to see it for the first time?

    Yeah, I feel the opposite of that today for you. Like I’m genuinely worried about your mental health if everyone starts sending you videos and quotes of his all at once. I imagine that may cause a mental breakdown.




  • Dear Canada. This isn’t us. This is the new asshole in power. Americans don’t hate you. We love you. And I can’t speak for every American, but I’d rather defect and fight WITH you than fight a war against you over this petty shit.

    Actually, can I defect even if we don’t go to war? I’d just LOVE to not be here the next 4 years, but I’m pretty sure I’d stay after that too. You’ll have to teach me which Canadian hockey team I should root for. And if anything, we’ll fight a war to get the Expos back.


  • The one problem I have with these kinds of reports DURING the war, is that I never know how much is public propaganda, and how much is real. From both sides.

    Just to give an example, if you read newspapers published in England during WWII, you would be lead to believe that British troops had developed a super power night vision by eating carrots.

    No, I’m serious. They legitimately reported that.

    What had actually happened was British intelligence had developed radar. They were able to now track nazi bombers before they even arrived to their bombing sites. So they’d reposition their anti-air defenses, and suddenly their hit rate at night went up massively.

    Then, because the Germans didn’t know what radar was, they told the newspapers “Well our boys have been eating carrots which is good for your eyesight, especially at night.”

    And the papers printed that. The nazis then established studies on the effects of carrots. And silent generation parents then taught their baby boomer children to eat carrots because it would help their eyesight. Completely missing the point of what the newspaper had printed, but even if they hadn’t the whole thing was bogus anyways. Just war propaganda from a war that had ended 10 years earlier at that point.

    And theres countless other examples of this. I just wanted to list my favorite one as an example of how war propaganda works in real time.

    So when I see these reports, from either side, I never know how true they are. Russia in the early days was sending out reports that they had such an advantage that they were going to win within 2 weeks. Obviously that was untrue. The allies have claimed they’re destroying russian tanks faster than russia can manufacture them, and that russia would run out of old stock tanks by 2024. That obviously didn’t happen either.

    Then this past summer, Ukraine claimed to have invaded Russia, and taken land of theirs. I held out, unclear if it was true. Now, months later, that appears to actually have been true.

    So I’m not saying all news about the war is propaganda. I’m just saying I never know which news is.

    Does anyone know a reliable source of news that filters out propaganda?


  • Yeah. Back in december I thought “I’m barely making my head above water…” and decided to take a second job. Which, I hate the job itself, but the people are pretty good people. I’m used to new workplaces where you’re new to be filled with just the worst people. I’m used to toxic chaos. And if that had been the case, I’d have quit by now. But, it’s an extra $100ish dollars a week after taxes. It adds up.

    So when I saw I was above income level, I was like “Whooooa, maybe I should just quit my second job if it means keeping my medicaide”.

    Then I heard how low the threshold was, and I said “Well, actually…the second job had nothing to do with it…”

    So I guess someone who makes 12 dollars an hour is too rich for medicaid now.

    This is a problem affecting me, but it’s a bigger problem thats going to affect millions. I don’t have money to go out and pay $400 a month for health insurance.

    I’m not even making my bills now as it is. Rent’s going to go up in July. Yet somehow I don’t qualify for food stamps, or now even medicaide.

    You think I’m alone? You think the medical industry isn’t about to collapse on itself? Imagine all these people who go to the ER. And then get billed 3 million dollars. No I’m NOT exaggerating. I got a statement that said “this is not a bill”. It showed my services used. In a 3 month period, I was over 1 million dollars. I’ve been doing this since 2023. I’m fairly sure my total is closer to 5 million dollars.

    Now…imagine they try to collect that.

    Most they could do is arrest me. So now you got millions of prisoners. In a 1 year period. Where are you going to put them?

    So, more likely they won’t arrest, but they won’t get their money. Now compound this. Millions of people all rendering services, which are now emergancy services. Which cannot be denied.

    And then never paid because nobody has millions of dollars lying around.

    How would the medical system NOT financially collapse?

    Edit: I don’t always know how I come off to others. I typed this up angry. If it comes off as me being angry at you, I appologize. I’m not angry at you, or intending any direction at you.

    I’m just angry.
