Someone pointed out that the way a lot of people have talked about Argentines during this World Cup mirrors how Tr*mp,and ideologically similar figures, have spoken about immigrants and minorities over the years... and I can't unsee it now.
"thugs, impoverished, dirty, savages, animals, uneducated, crass... it's very interesting
Seven Pakistanis in Spain tried to lynch three Argentine rugby players, but they were completely subdued.
The Islamabad boys had to be saved by hysterical Spanish chicks.
Steven Spielberg says his new movie, Disclosure Day, about aliens will have Christians and people of faith second-guessing their own religion.
Spielberg says the movie will take the position of the Church.
"Is God our God only on this planet, or is God a God for every system where there's civilization?"
"That would mess up a lot of people."
These commies are all spoiled theater kids who never made it in life. They want status and wealth, but they aren’t talented enough to make it, so they just take it from you. Like when Hasan Piker wears a Mao Jersey in his Porsche. They’re all scammers.
So long, America🫡🇺🇸
49 days ago we landed in the USA to follow our country at the World Cup. We had no idea it would turn into the trip of a lifetime.
Thank you to everyone who followed along, and to all the people we met who made this journey even more special. We honestly don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for everything you did for us.
This trip exceeded every expectation we had. We came here with an open mind, wanting to experience as much of the country as possible. I still remember telling my friends on the flight to Atlanta that I hoped we’d get to meet a few locals on this trip. Now we’re flying home with friends all across the USA.
Before we came, we heard so many stereotypes and warnings about America. People told us about safety concerns, that they might check our social media at the border, and all kinds of other things. None of it matched our experience. This was probably the most welcoming country we’ve ever visited.
So if you have the chance to travel, do it. The world isn’t nearly as bad as the media often makes it seem. 99% of people are awesome!
I heard this quote somewhere during the World Cup, and I think it sums up our experience perfectly:
“If you want to hate the world, watch the news. If you want to love it, travel it.”
Thank you, America ❤️🇺🇸
My sister has been saving for a house down payment for 6 years.
$500 a month. Every month. No exceptions.
She skipped vacations. Drove the same car for a decade. Packed lunch every single day.
Last month she finally hit $60,000.
She called me excited. Ready to start looking.
Then her realtor sent her the numbers.
Average home in her area: $520,000.
She needs $104,000 for 20% down to avoid PMI.
She's $44,000 short. After 6 years of sacrifice.
She asked me what she did wrong.
Nothing. She did everything right.
The finish line just moved faster than she could run.
She's 34. Single. No kids. Good job. Perfect credit.
And she's still not enough for a system that keeps adjusting the rules mid-game.
Mkay not my problem. I want my taxes going to my local economy, library, schools, and infrastructure. HIV in the 3rd world is like Darwin's law at this point. Didn't they learn shit from the all the aid we sent?
Transgender people in Nepal are left “starving and scared” after U.S. taxpayer funding for HIV prevention programs that provided free cond-ms, was cut, per AP.
@Polymarket Oh fuck no. This is what got us here. The teen takeovers will get worse. And if communism wins, who will pick the fucking food? We need an underclass AI tells they are only good for their hard labor😅

Ok. Everyone who is “disabled” on social media (but who isn’t really disabled) has the same laundry list of diagnoses, pick 1 or more:
POTS
Ehler Danos
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
It makes me want to scream!
And they all have a cane and perhaps a wheelchair…😬
There are thousands upon thousands of carbon copies of this woman who have been dx'ing themselves with debilitating diseases since the dawn of covid and complaining and gaslighting people over their self diagnosed illnesses nonstop since then. They're always self diagnosed autistic or some unspecified form of "neurodivergent" (a term none of them even knew before covid), and they always claim to have EDS or POTS. This superstar allegedly has both along with chronic sleepiness. It reads like a list of side effects from some unknown drug.
Gen Z romanticizing the 2010s is funny. Millennials didn’t catch the last helicopter out, they graduated into one of the worst job markets in modern American history, spent years underemployed, and finally gained momentum just as housing and living costs exploded. Those who bought homes before 2020 may have escaped the worst of it.
