I have reached the age where I find gags like this - and the massive cringe effect they inflict on young folks - fucking hilarious.

i'm comfortable with my fate. who ever really needed hair on their head anyway?

this is your reminder. 5 hours overdue, but here nonetheless.

but for real, your phone can do these things.

there are always the people in every horror movie who think that if they deliver their friends into the open drooling maw of the monster stalking them, they'll get a reward.

the "reward" is usually at least as bad as their friends' fate. it's just narcissism really. they think they're more like the enemy than they are like their friends, so it would be natural to spare them. but they're all just meat to the monster.

trump is just a shitty xenomorph. small hands instead of small mouth, and substantially less physically threatening. I think they both probably have the acid blood though.

Your tone is condescending as fuck, so I don't know why I'm bothering to reply because you'll undoubtedly just shoot insults at me too, but... I live in 2024. I work in tech, too. I almost exclusively use paper as a note taking, problem solving, and brainstorming tool. Digital tools simply don't compare in my eye. There is an inherent freedom of immediate expression and a special mental retention value that comes with pen on paper that I have tried and failed to sufficiently replicate on a computer despite attempts of great effort. I'd definitely prefer if I could instantly backup and organize and search and sync without a scan+tag process, but it's all inferior to me. The most capable people I work with also have a shockingly common tendency (>65%) to share this preference, too. I envy the others' ability to work purely digitally, but do notice how they spend substantially more time and effort in "administrative overhead" with their digital knowledgebases in comparison to my analog squishy world, to just end up producing similar overall output.

so if you're regularly annoyed (1/4), angry (2/4) and spiteful (3/4) about being forced to participate in this exploitative system designed to bleed you dry until you die, you're ok still... but if you try to do anything about it (by arguing with or defying "authorities" in any way) you're an insane person that needs to be locked up and given drugs? cool. that's really convenient.

I had kids that would do this at my school too. they'd sell them at a loss, technically - see, it was their parents money paying for it, but they would get paid cash by kids for discounted food items. it was essentially a way to launder the money your parent gave the school for your lunches into usable money, with a little bit of a loss yes, but at a big gain in versatility - for any kid, cash in hand is way better than dollar values in a school lunch system.

but I'd much rather have this "fraud" (of the kids' parents maybe lol) than kids go hungry.

and this has nothing to do with the free school lunches either. those were always fixed meals given to you - not "lunch money dollars" you could choose to use as you see fit. so this is just a bunch of greedy old assholes wanting to starve some kids.

it makes sense to his followers, which is his intent. he wants them riled up. they don't see this as him experiencing the consequences of his own actions, they see this as a left wing democratic deep state attack on trump to try and prevent him from winning the upcoming election. they believe this "deep state" is afraid of trump because of how he's obviously (/s) about to win a landslide election and finally flush all the "undesirables" out of power and turn america back into the racist wifebeating paradise of the 1970s. he wants them to be thinking about "defending him" from this "deep state attack". he's trying to solve his massive Impending financial apocalypse by gently prodding his followers into thinking about domestic terrorism.
