If I was a billionaire I'd use my money to solve world hunger. 😡

Sent from a device purchased with money that could have been used to feed an Ethiopian family for a year, but wasn't because my hypothetical generosity is purely performative.

@return_of_rome @nayibbukele I guess I’ll start planning to move to El Salvador in the event we go full blown dsa in 2028

If your education didn't teach you how to love music, literature and art, you've learned everything about making a living and nothing about being alive.

@BowtiedQueenBee The amount of stuff I have learned whilst teaching my kids is mind blowing. I was a bare minimum student and no one figured out how to unlock my love of learning as a kid… thankful to be getting it all now and ensuring my kids get that spark now as kids

@ATLCWorker Sir you have that backwards, you are not poor enough to be afraid of socialism.

(Hint- the rich people keep all your money, and they know that you’ll fall for it)

[The Voluntary Fox @VoluntaryDevil]

@dadnme88 Thank you sirs for your sacrifice 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 bless your family

@RealBetyCardens @JLRINVESTIGATES @HowTheWestWS @Cartel_Cal @TheKevinDalton I drove by that whole scene last night- I highly doubt it was an attack. It was much more likely to be a drunken accident. Tragic, but not anything to do with race or vendors.

If anything, this wouldn’t have happened if they followed the law and weren’t there in the 1st place

@Dylanszn01 No, you don’t.

@TRHLofficial Sending you all the healthy kitty vibes ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

@tifastarr I’m honestly good with any of the rooms, personally.

But I draw the line at forcing someone else who isn’t comfortable in a situation into that situation.

@scottsantens We are doomed

One of the reasons I don’t like socialism is public bathrooms.

A public bathroom is about as basic a shared resource as you can get. Everyone gets to use it, and everyone is expected to show a little consideration for the next person. The rules aren’t particularly complicated.

And yet, a shocking number of adults can’t even manage to throw their paper towels in the trash. Some will pee all over a toilet seat and leave it for the next person. And the next person, who didn’t make the mess, certainly isn’t going to clean it up either.

Now imagine trusting these same people to collectively manage an entire economy.

We can’t even get everyone to agree that cleaning up their own pee is a personal responsibility, but somehow we’re supposed to believe everyone will become hardworking, responsible, and considerate when we’re sharing the fruits of each other’s labor.

Now, compare your average public restroom to a Buc-ee’s bathroom.

Buc-ee’s figured something out. Clean bathrooms attract customers. Customers spend money. So the company has a financial incentive to keep those bathrooms spotless. They hire people to maintain them, hold employees accountable, and compete for your business.

And people will literally plan their road trips around stopping there.

That’s capitalism. Someone recognized a problem, found a way to solve it, and made money because people valued the result.

Of course, not everyone contributes equally to society. Some people work harder, make better decisions, and take more responsibility. Others seem perfectly content making life more difficult for everyone around them.

I believe people should have the freedom to live however they choose. I also believe in helping people who genuinely need it.

But I have a hard time accepting an economic philosophy that expects me to trust everyone to act in the collective interest when some people can’t be bothered to clean up after themselves.

Buc-ee’s figured out how to get people to willingly pay for a better experience.

Socialism wants me to believe the people leaving paper towels on the floor will suddenly become responsible stewards of everyone else’s resources.

I’m going with the beaver.

@JessLCampbell24 @BenC42 @angijones Video production, arts and I also worked at a number of animal care facilities, previously I was a box office manager for a stint.. I also removed hazardous waste and ran the biz for a while. That’s a taste of my history

[The Independent with Scott Atlas @ScottAtlas_IT]

Still amazes me that anyone, any thinking person, would want a government to control their access and quality of medical care. The most personal, the most consequential, the most individualized decisions for you and your children. It's a shocking desire for total dependency.

@SharonDunn54 @Diaphanous21360 @Todd_Spence I totally forgot about The Big Giant Head- man I have to dig up that show again, it was so funny

[The Voluntary Fox @VoluntaryDevil]

@Diaphanous21360 @Todd_Spence YESSSS I was so obsessed with that show!!

[The Voluntary Fox @VoluntaryDevil]

@Todd_Spence You were exposed to the Classic Shatner Pause - what an honour!

[The Voluntary Fox @VoluntaryDevil]

@splitmaude Right- I agree with you. But the problem is that they won’t embrace the “trans” part and insist on being called “woman”. There’s nothing wrong with being trans, so why are they making it harder by also expressing that they think something is wrong with the accurate word?
