the marine corps is an organization within the navy department, which is constitutional. which is why the citations for their big medals always end with poo poo like "for conspicuous gallantry reflecting great credit upon himself and the Naval Service, PFC Deadguy gets the medal of honor and some minor fringe benefits he cant use because he is dead af"

There's a guy here who's a sports radio host that played on the Pats with Brady one year. When he got there he was told that Tom was the first person to the practice facility every single morning. So this guy (Dorin Dickerson) told one of the other guys he was going to try to get there earlier than Tom and impress him.

he rolls into the Pats practice facility, the place is completely dark. He heads into the locker room and hits the restroom, feeling pretty pleased about beating Tom. Then a shitter stall opens and Tom comes out and says, "I love to win Dorin, and I always win" before wandering off.

even if it's a fake story it's absolutely something Tom Brady would do

my favorite tom story is how he unretired and then lost and his wife left him because she told him not to unretire and he did it anyway lol

my wife sells dolls primarily to old ladies with money they don't know what else to do with (like give it to their kids for example, the kids probably suck).

ive heard a lot of these boomer "my kids suck so they dont get anything" stories, and the common denominator seems to be that the boomer in question sucks actually. maybe thats what you were alluding to idk

whats extra weird are the ones who are like either weirdly cheerful or super aggressive about it, like they need you to know that their kids wont be inheriting anything, like theyre expecting you to high five them or something?

it's especially infuriating because the timeline here is:

- government previews new 'Trans Guidance for Schools' to 'provide clarity' and it's really bad - forced outing to parents if a child expresses the merest hint of gender uncertainty, a provision that even if kid, parents, and teacher are in full agreement the school admin can still mandate use of birth name and pronouns 'for mental health of other students' (???)
- government's lawyers say holy poo poo your Trans Guidance for Schools violates several human rights and anti-discrimination laws and will get thrown out by the courts instantly, you can't introduce this
- government hits pause but makes a bunch of noises about how they're still raring to introduce their Trans Guidance for Schools asap
- bbc publishes article that interviews two (2) parents - one is this person, the other the supportive parent of a trans kid who says their son was let down by the school and guidance on how to be supportive would have been really helpful
- article is published with title 'Parents Urge Government to Introduce Trans Guidance for Schools'

yes, the media is the enemy of the people, i agree!

the best part is, because we're in america, this kind of billionaire sock puppetry is gonna become ubiquitous and increasingly sophisticated. it is now, but i mean all-compassing, every single public office will be controlled by a private interest, all private property will be owned by a select few, and every bit of media will be private propaganda. lol and as i type this, i keep thinking...ok but that's already happened. so just like, imagine 500% more or something, idk.

as the neolib state cedes more and more control and responsibility to the private sector, billionaires will control public policy and individually shape outcomes. that "secret" city billionaires want to found in northern california is a harbinger of many beautiful fashy things to come.

I was hired at $15/hr straight out of college in 2019 because I was desperate for a job. I tried to negotiate but the director told me the wage was written into the grant and I couldn't get a raise until the next grant cycle

That director was fired several months in, and then we discovered he lied about my wage and the position was written to be able to go over $20/hr and that HR had adjusted my positions pay to start past $16/hr but the director ignored them and went over them

I did get a raise then. When I quit the next director pulled me aside and offered me $24/hr to stay and I turned him down

in 10 years time, maybe sooner, medication-based BC will be illegal nationwide. like everything else, theyll just use the crazed catholics on the supreme court

theres just too many ways to ban it, and all of them are stupid easy:

-fash comes to control congress, bans it by statute

-trump reelection means administratively interfering with the fda is a piece of cake, ban it administratively

-ditto for the usps, use administrative measures to ban and criminalize bc-by-mail. postal inspectors will love this cuz it increases demand for their agency, uspis.

-get a test case up to scotus, they ban it via calvinball rulings

and the liberals will help them do it

nuts were basically the only limits but my idiot dad was insinuating in a chud voice that schools are limiting tons of stuff you can pack because of LIBERAL TRANSGENDERS or whatever.

im not sure how you fix reactionary thinking without state violence or compulsory reeducation or a combo of the two. every time it's been tried, those were necessary. doesn't mean its impossible.

in a late capitalist hell system like ours, this poo poo is unstoppable. reactionaries consider helping others weakness (in fact, helping others or looking out for the needs is usually considered homosexual). how do you fix a country where 1 in 3 people is saying "actually, killing [slurs] is cool and good" OR just nodding and going along with it which is just as loving bad

its like theres 2 levels of reactionaries, a primary level that goes out and tries to do stuff actively, and then a secondary much larger level that doesnt take physical action, but mentally cheers them on and votes for this stuff

Lol and here I am debating about dropping $5 on a free to play game.

struggling to buy community college textbooks etc so i can retrain into a non-dying profession, and every other shithead is dropping thousands of dollars on imaginary apes and fake clothes.

good news though, the community college wants to send me a grocery store gift card to help, it'll be $100 dollars and won't arrive for 8 weeks. also, if you're not at home to receive the certified letter from the usps carrier, you have to go to whichever PO it's at, and go get it lol

also they do not tell you this, so you have to get burned at least once or hear about it from another student

i straight up asked the counselors if theres a state grant or something for older people trying to retrain, and they said nope but dont worry we have a food pantry!! also the food pantry is closed though!! the guy seemed genuinely mystified, like it didnt occur to him that sometimes people who already graduated college might want to go back, because their current field is dying.

regular people are just not a priority at any level ever, all the money needs to flow upward to our betters. same as it ever was, etc.
