The problem with millennials is they only submit applications online and that's why it takes 100 applications. If you really want to get a job you need to pound the pavement, walk into an office, hand your resume to the bossman, look him in the eye, give him a firm handshake, and tell him, "I'm your man!"

The bossman:

"Don't give this guy a loving job, he didn't pay attention to the 'apply online' thing on the website"

If you have reflux problems sleeping on your right side is a little risky. For someone without that issue, it's totally fine.

American schools teach that monarchy was an awful, despotic form of government to live under, and isn't it amazing our demigod-like Founding Fathers broke those chains and created the almighty, infallible position of the President. Now memorize every single one of them we've ever had without actually learning anything about how the position is meant to function or how hosed up our legislative and judicial branches of government are.

Hitman's developer IOI had a game called Freedom Fighters, where you are the guerrilla resistance when the US gets invaded by China or Russia or something. It definitely has a good message. When I came back from Iraq I got it and it really hit hard how the game's antagonists call you everything that the United States called Iraqis and Afghanis. It is blatantly obvious that it's meant to be anti-imperialismt o anyone that was politically minded back then and I credit it with breaking my rah rah USA mind.

Jesus gently caress, a house fire is like a bazillion times more likely to happen to you than a serial killer breaking into your house and is also a really lovely way to die. You should probably have a good lock for your door, but not one so secure it might make leaving your house too hard in an actual emergency.

Even weirder cause Israel Keyes set a house on fire.

Note to natives: next time try to live up to white people standards if you want to be considered human and don't want to get genocided. It's pretty simple, really

Natives picked up chattel slavery to try to live up to white people's standards, didn't help.

Well yeah, otherwise you'd say you got a degree or degrees in whatever.

"I majored in $subject before getting a degree in $othersubject", "I majored in $subject before I dropped out"

Your "major" is just what you intend to get a degree in.

"I was a philosophy major" and "I have a degree in philosophy" can mean two very different things, despite the fact that both would be true for the second speaker.

There is a pretty consistent throughline among right wing thinkers where other people should suffer because it's proper, and anyone who objects is weak, while simultaneously living insulated from the consequences of their desires.

I think the idea of "luxury beliefs" is pretty intriguing, definitely some flaws in dude's explaining of it but it sure helps explain a lot.

I'm ot making an endorsement of the dude, sorry if it came across that way. His idea is interesting if you look at it like the normal projection thing that conservatives usually do. Like that financial advisor's post about how you should invest in property and not a car and a guy responded "dude I'm just trying to get to work"

I'd say the real "luxury beliefs" are beliefs like "I should be able to order GrubHub but we should have the cops stationed to ticket delivery bikers". Or "We shouldn't build more housing but I don't want to see any homeless people". Beliefs that demand luxury at the expense of the invisible, totally alienated from material conditions.

Yea this is kind of what I was getting at. People who think "something should be done about the homeless" but that something is making homelessness illegal and absolutely nothing else is a luxury belief. You don't have to deal with the impact of your beliefs, or what happens when they fail. But you look more astute and socially conscious than your friends at brunch, so that's a thing you're gonna say.

boomers don't even remember the shows they're pining for. Archie Bunker was a bufoon the audience was supposed to laugh at. That was the point. He wasn't a working class hero who just said it like it is, he was a cantankerous old man who was pigheaded and wrong. A bunch of other characters were also played for laughs, but idolizing him is missing the point about as much as treating Patrick Bateman as a cool dude.

From the generation that lost their poo poo over two girls kissing in a cartoon.

Uhhh. Rosa Parks wasn’t in the back of the bus, like her whole thing was sitting at the front and refusing to move for a white person.

Nope, she was sitting in the black section of the bus and the driver came back and said the first four rows of that section were now white only, making more room for the whites up front, she refused to move.

What's even wilder is thst there was a law on the books that said no person should be made to move if they needed to adjust the number of seats in any section and you were already sitting down.
