I've noticed that even the average tech/sales socialist is way more insufferable than the average socialist
Sad
I've never heard anyone irl say anything close to as weird about geopolitical stuff or communism
People generally try to avoid political topics in conversations. Especially around people who aren't very close. It took me around 6 months of knowing some people to discover one guy was a BJP supporter, one guy supports the Nazis over the Soviets, one guy thinks Putin invaded because he has cancer, one guy thinks Chinese people can't access VPNs or they'll be taken away, one guy discovered the truth about Ukrainian Nazis, how Soviet backed Afghanistan was much better, yet still supported American interventionism because he works in America so it's good for him, etc.
I could literally keep typing for paragraphs and paragraphs but yea
Is it just me or is there a clear positive correlation between how much money an office worker makes and how fast they speak? Obviously with a cap on the speed at some point
Is it like a Type A thing since they're more likely to get promoted? Or speaking faster = appear more confidence, assertive, capable which is why they've climbed high on the career ladder? Or the higher level you are, the more your job is about attending meetings and speaking to people so they speak faster to get more words in before the meetings ends?
Idk, I read this as Lukashenko once again, being unable to act professional and civil when talking to the West and just going on a rant about how much he wants to see them fail
Dude just wants to let his anger out and be real, seems like he hates realpolitik, even towards his allies tbh lol

Knew it was South or Central America. The distance hint + hard liquor narrowed it down to Jamaica
Pretty sure this would break every single rule hexbear has lol
It's the hipster in you, hexbear is no longer a small exclusive community and you no longer feel special or unique for being here /s
Apple dongle fucks. Audiophile DACs are mostly snake oil
Apple dongle is like 95% quality of an nice DAC for 5-10% of the price
You're not wrong but I'm surprised it was an online forum thing that made you realize this
It hurts me a billion times more hearing absurd anti-communist and reactionary statements irl
Semiconductor manufacturing is probably by far the most difficult mass manufacturing that exists
All the factory workers are extremely high skilled
Okay I think they're saying that immigrants and minorities are the ones causing economic problems
The problems are bad = social welfare, higher taxes, security nets, etc. -> fiscally conservative
Socially very liberal = The causes, immigrants and minorities, are very good
Nope, TSMC manufactures around 90% of the highest end chips
You forgot charging their kids rent the second they turn 18 lmao
Anglos are so desperate to be landlords they'll make their kids a tenant
Far more pathetic than just saying the actual slur
Like they're racist but they can't even commit to being racist in a socially unacceptable way
They have to be politically correct racist lmao
The source for that claim is entirely from the US state department. Not to mention some expert disputed that claim
"The estimated all-time high for opium production was set in 2017 at 9,900 tons worth some $1.4 billion in sales by farmers or roughly 7% of Afghanistan's GDP, the UNODC reported."
"Mansfield says his field studies show the most the Taliban can earn from illicit opiates is about $40 million annually"
So the Taliban made at most 40 million per year while the entire country (under US occupation and control) made over 1 billion per year

"LGBTQ+ rights are being challenged across the United States, including in Florida, where the virulent politics have captured global headlines for their cruelty towards some of the stateβs most vulnerable, while also undermining the countryβs core freedoms. For many in the community, Florida has rapidly become a hostile environment as new laws concerning healthcare, education, and the workplace take effect.
We strongly believe it is more important now than ever before to continue our necessary and urgent work."
The Canadian rapper was found guilty of shooting the hip-hop superstar after a Los Angeles party July 12, 2020.
It took me more than half a year after realizing I was trans because I was thinking that since I barely had gender dysphoria, my life might be happier living as male and cis presenting than losing all that privilege and transitioning
Of course, the dysphoria got worse exponentially after realizing and that was no longer an option
I feel kinda dumb for thinking I might've been an exception since it seems like this happens to every trans person that used to not have that much dysphoria
I've acted like a cishet man for so long I don't know how to stop
I feel like almost every social interaction I have nowadays except with really close friends is just a complete reflex to be this fake guy I made up
It's especially bad when I talk to men so I'm also mostly avoiding all my male friends but obviously I would rather not do this
I don't even know who I am anymore
