Need to vent, just ignore this. If you don't want to listen to a grown man whine, please just answer the title.

RantThis country sucks. Everything here sucks. Leaving is too expensive, living is 5x more expensive.

  • We can't rent because our credit is too shitty, and we can't get jobs because they want us to live somewhere to get mail. The place we WERE getting mail said they wouldn't keep delivering the mail even though the owner is okay with it.
  • We can't afford food, but some food banks are now SO busy they're a 3 hour wait. It's gotten 30x worse this winter; we have started seeing some NICE-ass cars here. Some even say we're too well off for free food because we have a car to sleep in (wow thanks)
  • We're "too well off" for state assistance, and somehow not disabled enough for fed assistance (rare spine fusing disorder, I look like a pretzel)

USA is giving hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. USA is giving hundreds of billions of dollars to Israel.

  • Republicans want us to take some imaginary fairy jobs with our super-bootstraps and buy the nearest $12,000 house.
  • Democrats want to suck off the establishment regardless of what they do to us (please don't protest unless they're "legal protests!" You have to vote for the man who made homelessness illegal or the scary orange fuher will win!)

If a 3rd party couldn't win THIS election of all fucking elections, it's never happening without intense violence.

  • The good thing is that the surveillance state would never let that happen, whew! Really glad we don't have the gulag here unlike that shitty "communist" country that houses everybody /s.

If we didn't get healthcare reform after Trump's covid party, it's NEVER happening.

  • Two of our best friends have severe Huntington's disease and their insurance doesn't cover their meds. But at least their insurance company made $90,100,000,000 in profits this year! WooHoo!!

At least stocks are up biggly!

  • I'm sure that has nothing to do with inflation and the collapsing USD!

Meanwhile; in burger-fuck-town, our dumbass citizens weren't educated enough to do anything other than guzzle sugar and argue about their side of the culture-war.

  • Maybe it's the 3,000 people who own half of the worlds wealth's problem? Nah, it's gotta be trans people!
  • Maybe the 1% is the problem? Nah, it's gotta be those dumbass racist white folk in Alabama's fault!
  • Maybe corporations are to blame? No, I'm pretty sure it's the student protestors! They should have known better than to break the law!

Our homelessness is ILLEGAL where we live, and fucking SLAVERY is legal for anybody who had the misfortune of being stuck in housing limbo.

  • It's very clear the establishment is pushing people into labor camps and torturing anybody who refuses the labor (I mean who gives a fuck if prisoners kill themselves in solitary confinement, AMIRIGHT?)

Top decile probability of death is 55 % over a decade or roughly 0.5 % per month. Thus, biden has 1 month to croak and trumpo has a year to croak, which leads to (1-0.995)*0.95+0.995=...=0.025% chance or 1 in 4000 for both to occur.

(the website data is more interesting than low probability of success)

It's a book called Les Guerriers de l'Hiver (Winter Warriors) by Olivier Norek who was a cop before he started writing fiction.

Apparently his first book was ok. It was about humanising migrants who were stuck at the French border, so I guess he's not a literal racist but rather "rabid liberal sides with nazis when talking WW2"

Nonetheless the book is just glorifying the Finnish and depicting Soviets (well, he calls them "Russians" all the time lmao) as a zombie horde. It's all about how the "White Death" guy was a hero. I randomly opened a page and I kid you not first thing I read was "-Will we be free after that?" "-Well as free as one can be in Russia" agony

Very cool mister anti-racism cop, and thank you to my fellow social democrats for thinking I wanted to read the most clownish anti-soviet propaganda by some lib who's got zero background in History

"BRICS, the Global South-led forum for economic cooperation, continues to grow in influence, as its seeks to de-dollarize and transform the international monetary and financial system.

After admitting four new members (Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE) in 2024, BRICS officially welcomes nine new nations as partner countries on January 1, 2025. They are:

  • Belarus
  • Bolivia
  • Cuba
  • Indonesia
  • Kazakhstan
  • Malaysia
  • Thailand
  • Uganda
  • Uzbekistan

With its nine members and nine partners, BRICS now makes up roughly half of the global population and more than 41% of world GDP (PPP).

The group is an economic powerhouse, including top producers of key commodities like oil, gas, grains, meat, and minerals." comintern

I rephrased things.

In the latest tally, a total of 771,480 people โ€“ about 23 of every 10,000 people in the United States โ€“ experienced homelessness.

I phrased it a different way in my title.

I think the video is funny because he does a brain dead explainer for the first ~110 seconds and then in the last ~40 seconds he briefly says how risky it is.
