lake oswego is a rich white people land that unfortunately for them is a municipality and not an actual gated community, so while it segregates itself as best it can it's actually legally accesible by any citizen regardless of their skin color, little known fact

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

The President of the United States is somehow the dumbest person alive and the most arrogant person alive. He saw a boat like 3 months ago with a Trump flag and now tweets at least once a week about "THE BOATERS" because he thinks every normal American has a boat with a Trump flag on it and proudly boats around all weekend.

We're not even allowed to leave our loving houses to go do things except go to work, and odds are you'll probably get COVID at work. So you better hope to God you're not one of the people that seems to have the genetic makeup to have your lungs turn to goo when you catch it. And if you have any kind of empathy at all you're avoiding seeing other people out of fear of infecting them.

Meanwhile, every single Republican is either dumb as a loving post and think disease comes from an imbalance in the bodily humours or they just do not care about human life.

Beyond all of this, we found out UFOs are real and the US Government has been cataloging them for years and admits they have no clue what they are, but because everything is so loving dumb all the time it doesn't matter and nobody cares.

Theres a whole generation of kids being raised by this constant barrage of bare naked corruption and surreal horrorshow news. These are the same kids raised by school shootings, early Covid openings, and unprescedented public school defunding.

This is their normal. Theyre not going to be “remarking” on this like some persistent Pikuchu face of “oh my god look how bad things have gotten oh my goooooood”

Frankly, theyll probably be more fun to talk to. The rhetoric gets old. These threads get old.

I predict theyll overcorrect like a motherfucker. Little wannabe Harvey Dents everywhere. Wish I could be around to see it.

Sorry you were a kid who didn't read and believed the bullshit lies society told you. When I was six years old in the mid-90's I had a nervous breakdown I was going to inevitably be drafted and "die on some godforsaken rock" and you know what? I'm glad I got all that out early. You guys seem so tense all the time.

This is 100% not true.

I'd be willing to bet they're, in general, better educated, more motivated, and more socially adept and aware than the preceding generation(s).
The amount of information, education, and civil responsibility shown in the recent protest movement by young people was remarkable to a WILD degree, and you'd be a fool not to recognize that ability in that generation.

Listen, they do a lot of good things, too. If you need hyper realistic paint at 3 am on a Tuesday because you need to paint a tunnel on the side of a mountain, what are you supposed to do? If there wasn't a demand for their stuff and their 30 minutes or less delivery they wouldn't exist.
