@tbridge @Ardvaark not that I disagree but have you seen the rate of predatory loans specifically for dodge chargers? It’s almost a big of a sign as a cybertruck except sans the wealth ):
@DaddyJew @monkeyborg you should always give af about your burrito. That doesn’t change the rest of it though :p

@chockenberry Honestly, they're a sanity check. Did I click the button? Yup. iOS just sucking again! It's an improvement over being gaslit about having never pressed the button at all! Fuckers.
I mean it kinda comes down to Trump only got elected because of the GOP’s successful multi-decade attack on literacy. Did you know that the modern educational model in the US was in part designed by Henry Ford to produce better assembly line workers?
Jfc just die already.
