He didn't suffer as much as the pain he's inflicted upon others. He also didn't bankrupt his family in the process.

I can't say this is the way I want society to run ..... but quite frankly I think we're all sick of pretending that killing someone with a pen is any different than killing someone with a gun.

Fuck Joe Rogan, there could literally not be a worst candidate for the Republican party than Trump right now and this fuck face endorses him. Fuck him.

I had a friend that voted for Brexit. When I asked him why, he said that his grandfather was able to buy a house and take care of his family on his salary. His father was able to do the same. He said, these immigrants come in and live two families to a house and are willing to work for far less. He said, I don't want that type of future for myself.

No amount of telling him that -- the people that caused this issue are also benefitting from Brexit -- could convince him.

Was weird because I wasn't an immigrant but my family was and he was cool with me.

Anyone who thinks this is just a Trump thing is insane. It doesn't end with him. The entire system needs to be purged of this corruption.

They're not honestly curiously asking anything.

If you don't let people starve. They'll learn to be lazy and it'll be the downfall of our society! /s

we should also get rid of the inheritance tax so I can make sure even more generations of my family will never need to work and be lazy! /s

I think I saw some doctor on YouTube explaining that most blind people don't see pure black. They have varying levels of sight that count as being legally blind due to cataracts or something else.

Don't get me wrong, the relief they feel for that 30 seconds for their disabilities to come back still fits in with the spirit of this meme.

One of my first companies put a clause in to say that they owned the code you wrote in your spare time. I peaced out too.

Tim Cook laid it out for his investors: when people can repair their devices, they don't buy new ones. When people don't buy new devices, Apple doesn't sell them new devices. It's that's simple.

I mean, there we go. For anyone wondering. Capitalism can't be green.

edit: thanks for pointing out that the article said it but doesn't back it up, leaving my comment up regardless

They're cosplaying being a freedom warriors in this culture war. Keith Olbermann talked years ago about how Fox commentators just casually spoke to him as if they didn't believe what they were spewing on air. They didn't. It's all a game or performance art.

It's disgusting.
