lol @ full sail

That place put my old friend in paralyzing debt in return for nothing of substance or utility

They voted Trump because lol crooked Hillary now I guess posts #resist

The signs are obvious, and I'm pretty sure its an alt-righter breeding ground there because the environment is just goldilocks for it.

Full Sail is ludicrously expensive ya so its ideal for the rich parents to send their slacker gamer pepe son to make something out of their lives but don't

It's really silly and surprisingly politically dumb for the Republicans to try to pass the AHCA and seize ownership of the healthcare disaster instead of just quietly starving the beast

Like I said earlier, the AHCA will pass, and there is going to be an enormous backlash against the Republicans because of it. If they had just drained ACA of funding then they would have gotten the same results and 1/10ths the backlash

Trump literally told them this

repeatedly

I hope after all this, he vetoes it the day before the recess, and Congress implodes with rage and confusion...but he won't. He gonna sign that sucker so he can have a "win", which makes no sense imo but that's TRUMP!!!

All of this depends on whether anything matters or not. I thought maybe we were due for some mattering, but after democrats couldn't pick up even 1 out of 4 special elections running against the most unpopular president of our lives...well maybe the mattering is much farther out than we thought.

I'm not convinced that something so insignificant as literally killing off their voters will cause republicans to lose any support.

It's fascinating how self sabotaging capitalism can be while still staying afloat. Let's replace all the workers with machines and pay the remainder so little they need food stamps to survive. I wonder why no one has the money to shop at our stores.

This is what I don't get about the illegal immigrant argument. Do Republicans just not realize that while those immigrants don't pay income tax, they still pump a shitload of money into the economy and the government through regular sales taxes.

Ehh I'm less bothered by the special election losses than some people are

All these special elections were in deeply Republican districts, because Trump's handlers deliberately had him pick candidates from safe districts to avoid losing seats in Congress

Actually we love being killed off

when one of us gets killed off, it gets blamed by our families and friends on MUSLIMS and COMMIES, and two more of us spring up

i mean im pretty much surrounded by decent people in my everyday life coworkers are fine familys tight friends make me laugh

its not a bubble or an illusion my real life is not make believe so where does all this evil come from

im having a legitimate unironic why cant we all just get along crisis here its not milk drinking cay crew bullshit this is trying to reconcile two discrete events of my last 24 hours

the first is taking my lily white caucasian cracker rear end teenage son to his favorite barbershop in madison wisconsin a city much like milwaukee that tries to hide its minority population like its something to be ashamed of but my boy likes going to a straight up black barbershop and i approve so thats where we went

we were the only white folk in there and it was cool one barber finished up and pointed his clippers at me all youre up and i was all no thanks just here with my boy then a short pause looked at myself in the mirror and admitted that yeah im shaggy as hell and desperately need a haircut and we laughed about it

the second is that four year old girl thinking she needed to calm her mom down to keep her alive because cops with guns were around

dear united states and turnip thread i could really use some good news about right now
