    I know no one on Lemmy likes Jubilee and I don’t either, but I still watch it every now and again.

    Last month there was a Gen Z politician vs Boomers and one of the old guys was talking about how student loan forgiveness shouldn’t be done. The politician says you won’t feel it. The Boomer said, they would because of the numbers of the ledger, politician says you’ll feel it due to the all the people being able to contribute to the economy properly and giving it a huge boost. Boomer says him or his wife had their loans forgiven and it was a huge help, but that not everyone should get it.

    Man, these fucking people.



  • Big hugs friend …

    Just an apropos of nothing …

    I’ve had two friends tell me how they’re sick of this woke shit. I said, I hear more whining about woke shit than any woke shit so you’re gonna have to be specific. He said, “Chris’ kid thinks he’s trans now, like he’s too young what the fuck is that?”

    I was like, “I’ve never met Chris’ kid and it seems you think they’re doing it for attention but what if they are <trans>…?”

    It’s like … trans people got their own shit that they’re going through and some of my friends act like it’s their problem somehow.

    I’ve been watching a lot of Scrabble videos on YouTube. I don’t know why as I’ve never played the game … however, there’s a phenomenon where the best players in the world are challenging really obvious words because of the quirks of the language.

    In the video below you can see an example of where someone challenged “bus” because “bu” isn’t one of the many two-letter words they’ve memorized and so pluralizing it is also invalid.

  • I remember when Joe Rogan was going off on Biden for saying something stupid about naval ships or war or something. Then kept saying how he’s not suited for office.

    Turns out Biden was quoting Trump.

    Rogan obviously backpedaled on that statement being suitable for the office of the president of course.
