  • I will never understand why Earth is Earth.

    You got a bunch of assholes trying to force people into poverty by being forced to raise kids they don’t want, and can’t afford.

    Which brings parents who have to raise kids they don’t love. Which creates generations of people who are incapable of love. These people then have kids, but don’t love their children, on account of them being incapable of loving.

    And so now you have a planet, that is full of unloved assholes in all directions. So now instead of society, and progress, and health, we’re all instead reduced to a dollar amount.

    Pay a little money, get a little happyness. Pay a lot of money, get a lot of happyness. But then you reach a point where more money does not equal more happyness. So the void needs to be filled by oppressing others.

    And now the stage is set for the wealthy to try to feel better about themselves by putting others down.

    Now regurgitate that same practice for hundreds if not thousands of years.

    Knowledge, love, care, health. These are all concepts that SHOULD be the pillars of any society. Instead, we’re all slaves to the all mighty dollar.

    This is Earth.

    Earth is stupid.


  • Have you HAD Mcdonalds lately?

    These fast food companies year after year after year report a drop in sales from the previous year.

    And it’s fucking stupid.

    When I was a teenager in the 90s, I had an addiction to Mcdonalds fries. A literal addiction. I would order 6 of the supersize fries. I would do this multiple times a day, everyday.

    Last Friday, I tried ordering McDonalds for the first time since that whole rick and morty sechwan sauce thing.

    What I got were sad thin flavorless strips of potato. I cannot imagine trying to explain to a teenager today that I used to be addicted to these. These aren’t the same fries that I used to know.

    They report a 6% drop in 2025 compared to 2024. In 2024 I remember they announced a drop from 2023. It’s been dropping since at least the pandemic.

    And here’s the reason why.

    These companies keep asking “How can we make more profit?” And the answer keeps being “cut costs” and “raise prices”.

    Well, yeah, I can see the cut costs. These fries are thinner. They don’t taste as good. They don’t have the crunch I used to know. I didn’t even get a super long fry, or a mushy fry!

    And the chicken nuggets were also bland and tasteless. They were half the size as I remember. These were like thin scraps of a chicken nugget. The breading was worse too.

    So I’m paying 3x the amount to get get portions that are half the size I remember, with none of the flavor, and somehow end up waiting 20 minutes.

    Cool, cool, cool, cool. I don’t think I want to ever go to McDonalds again. They obviously can’t figure out why sales are dropping, and refuse to sell a fast product that tastes good for cheap.

    So why would I want it?

    I will however eat these apples.



  • Have you ever seen a Gallagher show? No? Don’t bother. It’s often racist bullshit, but for some reason he then hits a watermellon with a hammer to splash the audience.

    No, I’m not leaving out context. Racist joke, hits watermellon, big laughs. He was popular in the 80s with the boomers. It was as stupid as it sounds, but it does give you a good idea how big the splash zone would be.
