@ZeeHero1 @sakebu_cheese_ It’s for when you have outgoing mail. That way the postal worker doesn’t have to check if the mail in the box just hasn’t been picked up by the owner yet.

I'm a bit angry.

@DelusionPosting Coffee and water. My wife makes a powder sweet tea that I have when I want a treat.

@reddit_lies @DelusionPosting “Slavery was a good thing”

I’m willing to bet the student is intelligent enough to hold two opposing opinions at the same time and the teacher is not. So the argument she doesn’t like becomes the focus.

@JustineBateman All mine are for tax relief. I get so many it makes me think they know something I don’t.

@MysterySolvents They want to know if you’re one of them - woke. So they change the language every so-often so they know who’s in and who is out. If you don’t use the right words, than obviously you’re uninformed and therefore irrelevant.

Son feministas hasta que Bad Bunny les baila pegado.

Son socialistas hasta que descubren lo cómoda que es volar en primera clase.

Son ecologistas hasta que toca un fin de semana en yate o un vuelo a las Maldivas.

Son tolerantes hasta que se enteran de que votas a la derecha.

Son pacifistas hasta que alguien discrepa de ellos.

Son partidarios de la libertad de expresión hasta que escuchan algo que no les gusta.

Son antielitistas hasta que los invitan a un reservado VIP.

Son ciudadanos del mundo hasta que les toca tenerlos de vecino.

Son partidarios de repartir la riqueza hasta que les toca repartir la suya.

The Soviet whaling fleet killed 180,000 whales between 1948 and 1973, delivering rotten carcasses that nobody wanted to eat. Soviet citizens had zero demand for whale meat. The ships hunted anyway, fulfilling quotas handed down from central planners who counted tons of dead whale as economic output.

This was bureaucratic box-checking that nearly drove multiple whale species to extinction. Soviet whalers targeted endangered right whales and humpbacks specifically because they were larger, helping them hit tonnage targets faster. The meat rotted on deck during long voyages back to port, where officials dutifully recorded the numbers and sent reports to Moscow declaring another successful harvest.

Central planners measured success in tons harvested, not consumer satisfaction or long-term sustainability. Factory managers got promoted for exceeding whale quotas, regardless of whether anyone actually wanted whale meat (they didn't). The feedback mechanism that normally connects production to human needs had been severed entirely. When bureaucrats replace market prices with administrative targets, you get mass slaughter with zero purpose.

You still see this today every time politicians promise to "create jobs" in industries that lose money year after year. When government agencies measure their success by dollars spent rather than problems solved. When university administrators chase enrollment numbers instead of student outcomes.

Remove the profit motive and price signals, and you get 180,000 dead whales rotting in the sun while commissars celebrate meeting their targets. You don't get rational planning.

Socialism is fundamentally destructive to the environment and inevitably leads to ecological disasters.

The strongest red flag was when leftists lost the ability to be funny. Comedy relies on subverting expectations to expose truth. Leftism subverts the truth to peddle lies. That’s why they can’t be funny, they can’t reveal the truth, their entire politics depends on concealing it.

@KikokushijoN @Eigon_fit Did I just learn it’s rude to talk about baseball in Japan?

@DefiantLs If you’re my employee and post what she did, I’m firing you because you’re too stupid to work for me. I don’t care which direction it’s aimed at.

@lippyent Small counter top on cheap metal filing cabinets was my desk. I literally had just a bed with no headboard and a small tv until one of my neighbors was moving and didn’t want to take his couch. Every so often I got poked by one of the pins he used to keep the upholstery on.

@DefiantLs Oh. So that’s his grift. I mean it worked fo Al Gore.

What radicalized you?

For me, it happened back in my freshman year of high school in the early 2000s. The head coach of our hockey team believed in getting the team home to our own beds after road games no matter what instead of staying in hotels. Hotels were a distraction. With no hotel costs, he wanted to use the money to upgrade our road meals. Nothing fancy, just basic meat and potatoes type places like Cracker Barrel or Perkins instead of cold Little Caesars on a dark January bus ride home across rural North Dakota. The athletic director and superintendent shut the idea down and basically just absorbed the savings from his no hotel policy into the athletics budget.

So after that our coach, the other assistants, the parents, and us players started fundraising in the off‑season in hopes to get better meals on the road. The first year went great. We raised a ton and were easily able to have nicer sit down meals on every single trip. We all sat together at big tables, had actual food choices, ate healthier and built even more camaraderie. It was fantastic all around.

But then other sports teams and parents caught wind. It was seen as unfair. The AD, principal, and superintendent demanded we stop, in order to keep things “equal” across all sports at our public school. They even tried to force our coach to hand over the privately raised money so it could be redistributed. Thankfully, our coach was an old‑school Canadian ex‑pro hockey player who didn’t take shit from anyone, and told them to F off, and we continued with our meatloaf road meals as planned. The principal and AD eventually backed off, but the superintendent had a vendetta against our team and probably mostly just our coach so he never stopped. He even went as low as instructing bus drivers not to take us to the restaurants we’d planned for on the road. Our coach always overrode it, once even driving the bus himself since he had the license from coaching cross‑country.

Over the next few years we continued the fundraising for better meals. Some of the other teams, and other parents continued to badger the supt., our coach and even sometime us players about it instead of just joining us in fundraising.

Watching peers and especially some of our own “leaders” work so hard to sabotage a positive thing for us was eye opening and really stuck with us. It gave us an early look at how petty and nefarious and systems and people can be, even at the local level.

And honestly, in the end, all it did was radicalize about 30 teenage hockey players for the rest of their lives who walked away believing “equality” was the dirtiest word in the English language. 😂

@washghost1 To be fair, they did move to the side at an opportune time at the end of the clip. Where I live, they stay two or three across and have a dozen riders making passing on even straight stretches nearly impossible.
