They can’t afford food because they were born with silver spoons in their mouths. K.

Oh, they'll go to war. Just not the one you think.

Said the same week as RFK once again floats the idea of insitutionalizing the disabled.

These are not off-the-cuff comments. Somewhere behind the veneer of stupidity, more and more members of the current government are pushing the need to imprison or conscript larger and larger swathes of the US population.

Absolutely. And you can pay for a bachelor's degree working a minimum wage job in the summers and you can buy a house and support a wife and kids with an entry-level job.

Or, wait, was that 80 years ago?

Something something avocado toast

I saw avocado toast on a menu for $17 the other day! Wtf! Who pays that?!

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

I was about to correct you, but no, it really has been 80 years. Time is cruel.

[–] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

If you're having trouble finding a job, have you tried just going into the company directly and asking? I'm sure they'd take one look at you and immediately see what an intelligent and capable person you are and hire you right away. /s

I think you replied to the wrong comment, but yeah, this advice just keeps getting worse every decade.

I mean, it wasn't that long ago the the Simpsons represented the bottom of the middle class--a high-school educated father with a stable job (with dental plan) and a house, two cars, two kids, and a SAH wife.

Just a few years earlier Billy Joel was positively bitching "who needs a house out in Hackensack? Is that all you get for your money?" Like, yeah, that sounds pretty good relative to paying 60% of your income in rent, Anthony.

Some conservatices can appear decent, but absolutly every last republican is a fucking asshole after too much taco bell.

[–] GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 10 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I don't think any of these assholes have ever had to dumpster dive for groceries before.

[–] decolo@piefed.social 13 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Had to? no ... but I am certain that RFK Jr has done it for fun

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Not much raccoon penis in dumpsters, is there?

[–] decolo@piefed.social 5 points 1 hour ago

I have to admit I was assuming dumpsters contained maybe more dead animals than was realistic
