I’m in my early 40s, and I’m more of a leftist today than I was when I was 18.

Man, the Bradys haven’t aged well.

Lol the more I learn about humanity, the worse it gets

History teacher here. He is technically not wrong. Eventually, history will forget Stalin. It just won’t be in my lifetime, or anytime in the next several hundred (thousand?) years.

I mean, humanity will go extinct eventually.

I didn’t know that! Thanks!

Isn’t chupacabra from the Caribbean though?

I’m well aware of how screwed I got… I’m hoping that in the next year or so I’ll be able to re-litigate with a different lawyer. I was so desperate to get out of that marriage, I took some bad advice.

My biggest problem is that my life hasn’t been the most stable since I left her. The sick amount of money I have to give her every month certainly hasn’t helped.

Uhhh, I’m a Xennial and this hits hard. I am basically paying for her mortgage with the amount of money I have to give my ex every month. She has always had zero ambition, so I was always getting raises, and by the time we split, our finances were in two very different places, so the court said I have the luxury of paying her monthly just to be rid of her.

Woodchipper. Just be sure to do it in the middle of the night when it’s impossible for anyone to hear you because they’re sleeping.

What if you only have one foot?

Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World was the first dystopia that I ever read. I’d gotten so enamored with all of the various utopias in sci-fi, especially Star Trek, that the idea that the opposite might exist hadn’t previously occurred to me. While it didn’t change me in a day-to-day kind of way, it helped me make sense of the world around me. I have always loved Star Trek, but it never seemed like humanity was truly headed in that direction.

BNW, 1984, and others helped me understand the world around me, which I think made me a better person in the end. Am I going to be a party to the creation of these kinds of worlds, or am I going to try to help move humanity in the other direction?

Sounds interesting, but I need to know if this is a kissing book.

Chill. He’s wearing a medieval tunic.

It’s likely because the fixes all would impinge on the rights of his constituents–and by that I mean, the rights of his major corporate donors to make money.

I’ll be right over!

Mmmmm… raw chicken… 🤤

Guess who’s coming to dinner…

Yes, Ulysses S. Grant was arrested for riding his horse recklessly through the streets of DC. He was arrested, fined, and released. This happened while he was president. However, since it was a minor incident in the grand scheme of things, it isn’t really a precedent to hang your hat on.

Realistically? Josh Gad.

Please do not tell my 10yo that this exists.
