There is no postmortem I forgot this happened and I just remembered

I think this was the last funny thing to happen on rDrama aside from the Marself on a Marshelf event

Limit social media consumption as much as possible, but recognize that you cannot eliminate it altogether

Based and actually great advice

Pay attention to the comments you make about your own bodies in front of your children and the attitudes toward exercise and food you're displaying. Be mindful of the kinds of messages your kids are getting from their entertainment and social media activity.

Don't shame your kids for eating an entire box of Swiss Rolls, chud

Comment sections also expose posters and viewers to harsh critiques about people's bodies, which can fuel more insecurity and low self-esteem.

Very interesting how wanting to work out and feel better is a harmful social contagion but ing out absolutely is not

This all started when someone slandered the queen, AOC, implying that she is part of the 1% she claims to fight. She then proceeds to post the massive L that despite making $174k/year (before bribes) she doesn't own a house and still has unpaid student loans Of course this leads the fans of known peepee sucking s*x pest, Destiny, to defend their queen's honor by being anti-freedom communists.

You don't stop it, X is made for this, to push out anything Elon wants, playing with the algorithm to push out fake shit and suppress real things, it's the easiest shit in the world, I bet if I had access I could code the inverse in less than a day.

I wonder if he held this position before Elon bought it…

We're fricked. The last 9-ish years have shown us that something like 80% of the population can be fully fricking brainwashed by propaganda of one form or another; and we haven't figured out a way to counter, stop, or correct it.

No one is immune to propaganda. That's why it's been utilized since the dawn of humanity and will continue until the end of it.

And our national worship of "free speech" has been perverted to mean we have a right to be constantly be lied to.

We should definitely just give the good guys, who never lie, complete and total control over all facts. Surely they would never abuse that power

this would require government intervention to counter, but republicans love fomenting propaganda because they hate america, and democrats will never take steps against social media contagion because they're weak, effete cowards obsessed with protecting land grants and trans visibility, not protecting voting rights or america's institutions.

Please daddy government! Censor these filthy liars! Wait… I'm not a liar! Don't censo… ACK!

You want to silence people from making up blatant lies? That's what free speech is there to protect bro! That's dictatorship to be anti-lies!!

Freedom hating communist wishes we had a ministry of truth.

I've been wondering why tiny's been so chill with everything going on, and then remembered people on this media diet will only realize it's all fake after things get much worse. I just fear whatever the tech bros are doing will be woefully stupid, even more so that what Donald has in mind.

This "Tiny" he's referring to is the streamer, Destiny, who recently got in hot water after sharing a bunch of videos of himself banging both men and women with his groomercord friends. This led to them being leaked and him being sued by one (or maybe multiple) of the women from the leaks. Additionally all of his former streaming partners have distanced themselves from or completely abandoned him. The reason he has been "chill" is because he is laying low because he knows he's fricked. And this redditor gets all of his opinions from this man. Just remember if you're ever feeling low, you will never be as pathetic as someone like this

I know Americans don't like this with the 1st amendment and all, but at what point do you allow this to continue happening? Maybe it should just be illegal to tell blatant lies like this, but idk

Posts in /r/Vancouver. What do you know, a filthy foreigner with a negative opinion of the 1st amaendment! If I had a dollar for every time I heard that, I'd have more money than AOC!

Anyways, America has free speech and it's here to stay, no matter how much commies cry about it.

HERE WE GO!

Good thing no one is buying it then

Woke up at 3 am, drove two hours and then walked three miles there and back to see this little neighbor say six more weeks of winter.

Amazing thread attempting to create a narrative with 40k upkongs and just 900 comments, so you know it's legit.

Comments are mostly as expected: Yeah, but Amazon is cheaper, ships faster, and has ez returns.

Note: Amazon doesn't make much on it's retail ops anymore, so they probably dgaf if people shop there or not.

Notable zero-pointers

2 weeks later no package arrives, no answer from support, regret not using reliable Beszos

Amazon is Amazon for a reason

Yeah but usually there products are marked up 25% compared to the Amazon listing so bezos gets my money🤷.

Nah I usually want the shit I ordered faster than 1-3 business months

The Pivot attempt and rebuttal

The main difference is Amazon offers free shipping and free hassle free returns. Other retailers charge you to return products you order from them and usually charge you shipping to get them

fyi hassle free returns = products go directly in the garbage (cheaper than sorting through the products) and Amazon bakes the cost into higher prices for everyone due to the high volume of returned items

FYI the exact same thing happens when you return it to the manufacturer.

The only difference is that it's substantially easier to return a product to Amazon vs most manufacturers.

just accepted the job offer of my dreams. It was great, paid $38/hr full benefits! The work is a combination of physical and technical, and the cherry on the top was it was good MORAL work. I would have been working with private landowners to plant trees on their property, giving them timber harvesting power in the future plus fortifying the American timber trade instead of outsourcing for wood. Not to mention improving the local environment.

The thing is I'd be working with a non-profit and my position is funded by federal grants.

My job acceptance almost feel through with one executive order but I got lucky until Elon fricking MUSK commandeered the treasury payment system so there are effectively no resources to hire me. He took my job.

It's fricking heartbreaking. In 2 years I could have paid off my student loans and had a down payment for a house if I had saved like mad. Now I'm stuck making $20,000 a year living paycheck to paycheck. And I don't think anybody understands what an opportunity like this is for some poor kid who grew up in a rotten trailer in Appalachia to have had. Frick.

>Elon Musk--and I mean this genuinely--is a national security concern who should be deported and permanently banned from travel to our country. He doesn't belong here. This is not his country. He can get the frick out if he wants to steal from real Americans, which he is not.

>Sounds great but that's not true. Basically Musk came here on a student visa for Stanford, never went to one day of school, then just stayed. Then later he got naturalized via some Affirmative Action thing for Rich people, but the rule is you are supposed to wait for this process in your home country, but Musk defrauded the United States by staying here. Immigration fraud has no statute of limitations. We can deport this crook if we get the will!

>Oh, there will be plenty of jobs. Hope you like picking fruit in 100-degree heat for $3 an hour...

This is 100% home grown photoshop no AI which is why it kinda sucks

there is nothing else implied though

@WeihnachtenSalvador

i'm at my big firm corporate girlboss job and one of my coworkers said something about grad school - i missed a deadline last month, guess that's a sore spot for me - and i just started crying. tried to hold it in but all i managed were tears silently sliding down my face. had to slip out after a minute when it didn't stop.

literally been slinking around the office and hiding in the bathroom for an hour trying to stop crying. once, i thought i was in the clear, but when i put my hand on the doorknob to the meeting room it started up again.

i'm so annoyed because i'm a totally competent person otherwise. i'm not even really ""emotional"", like i stay pretty girlboss professional eloquent deadpan all the time - which makes it even worse when i turn into a blubbery red-eyed swollen-faced mess.

all my life i've been someone who cries at the drop of a hat - in elementary school, during ballet class, at parties, etc etc. one of my exes would get so mad at me when i cried and accuse me of doing it to derail whatever stupid fight we were having and make him feel bad. i kept swearing i wasn't doing it on purpose and i tried my best not to cry but he never believed me. i do try!! i hate crying. it's embarrassing and it's a waste of my time. i'm missing an important meeting right now :( i have to go collect my laptop that's been sitting there abandoned. what do i even say? nothing? say my tummy was upset?

Good lord this woman is a MESS. Someone casually mentioned grad school and it caused her to cry for the rest of the fricking day.
