@FreddyLA7 Freddy I mean this with all sincerity you need to be really carefully in summer thunderstorms in the South. There is nothing comparable in Europe. They are biblical. Sometimes the rain is so bad you have to stop driving.
It’s because they are all people at the lower end of upper/upper middle class and as a result think they are oppressed; they are the worst off of their cohort. Being an architect’s child in westchester doesn’t make you poor it just makes you feel poor. But they then identify with actual subjugated people. They authentically believe they have the most in common with actual oppressed people. They may even feel some kind of inverted noblesse oblige since they are at the top of the oppressed class as they see it, not the bottom of the privileged class. They don’t outgrow this belief because they are also low horsepower intellectually and low in conscientiousness/self awareness. I think this is the most charitable explanation in some ways but also the most likely. I don’t think all of them know they are lying, but it doesn’t excuse it
Hunter has done really bad things but seems to understand they are bad. Because of this he comes across as surprisingly normal and credible. On the other hand, people like Platner and Karen Bass insist that we join them in a sort of shared delusion and demand that we normalize Nazi tattoos, being in Ghana when your city is on fire, etc.
People will generally at least hear you out if you can just be normal and acknowledge when you’ve done things that are bad instead of pretending they are good. Insane that democrats DO NOT GET THIS and instead continue to nominate psychopaths
it turns out that to fix hollywood, they just needed a new crop of gen Z directors to come in and make movies about what life is actually like in 2026 and boot the epic millenials making reddit marvel slop from the industry. dont let the door hit your chungus ass on the way out!
I have a theory that a lot of people’s happiest memories are from summer camp and they seek out adult experiences that are similar. They just really like highly structured leisure time - weirdly hard to come by!
BREAKING: R360, a peer-membership group for families worth at least $100 million, recently held an invite-only retreat at an Airbnb in Austin where wealthy heirs learned how to not blow their inheritance.
The group of college students and 20-something’s were reportedly worth a collective $7 billion.
@pmarca Lotta 45 year old moms like this. Usually had one high horsepower job, then left. Not talking about people with zero experience just people who dropped out early to raise kids. Obviously, not self destructive
