He’s probably actually gonna win off this event

That’s fucking depressing lmao

I wonder if this is why Trumps handlers are desperately stopping him from blaming Biden.

It would get the word out that even if it was Biden, it would be perfectly legal.

They just make a lot of money or lived outside their means. When people mention big AC bills, they’re cooling 2000sqft homes to under 70F 24/7. No idea why American culture does this insanity.

I get by just fine with 78F during the day and a little lower at night, it even gets a bit cold when the compressor runs. Low low bills even when it’s 110 (not hyperbole, that’s the literal temp) outside.

Additionally every degree higher it gets outside, the less efficient your AC/heat pump gets so you need more power to hit the same temp even after accounting for the higher heat differential.

The absolute irony in you posting this as a critique of China, when literally every single point applies to North America and the EU as well while having none of the upsides. (At least, no upsides for Americans. The EU is doing a better job.)

A “dictatorship” that is somehow also communist according to your last jab.

Like, do y’all seriously not see how much you’re embarrassing yourselves? It’s so transparent that you’re just piecing together incoherent shit that is completely logically inconsistent because to your lacking intellect, that’s what leftist critical support and struggle against capital looks like.

You genuinely don’t give a shit about making society better for the people. Why are you pretending? Y’all get more pathetic by the day, I swear.

Can you even imagine the shitstorm if F-22s started dropping lmfao

It would be pretty funny if this is how the newest bird flu pandemic starts

Who tf has enough clothes to pack for a trip and still go through a week of work and laundry

Is this some kind of privileged meme I’m too working class to understand

Lmao @ the Americans getting all uncomfortable trying to weasel out of this

Yeah bullshit it’s “not mandatory,” how can you have such a basic denial of reality?

Totally optional, that’s why every time some kid understands and abstains, the teachers and other students bully them mercilessly, give them detention, suspension, expulsion, and it makes national news whenever someone actually tries.

I bet joining the NSDAP was fucking optional too, don’t try to deny your christofascism that everyone just accepts because somehow it’s better when America does it

We’re going to remember people like you when this is all over.

Unironically defending genocide by using “antisemitism” as an excuse, implying by your own admission that all Jews are genocidal

Who do you think you’re fooling, bud? Fucking Nazi.

Apple Maps also straight up gives objectively better audio guidance (e.g. “move to the right lane to turn right at the next light” vs “turn right in 300 feet”).

Additionally the “directions” portion of the screen has large font and is clearly visible compared to Google’s tiny font on a window the size of 10% of the screen to show you more ads. (Yes, the reason some business appear at all zoom levels while others only pop up at street level is ads)

What a fall from grace. I remember when Apple Maps would direct people to drive through halfway built overpasses with 500 feet of open air at the end because it’s not built yet.

LOL

Considering the US literally couped Australia when their prime minister refused to give unconditional support for a spy base, this is small fry!

p.s. that military base in Australia now exists, the US has full autonomous control of it, stations soldiers there, and the antennae currently guiding the Israeli missiles leveling Gaza

The cruelest part of late stage capitalism is that these immigrants would probably have enjoyed a better life back home.

Sure many are refugees escaping violence or truly desperate conditions.

But many are also normal-ass people that were sold the lie of the Western/American dream. People that struggle to learn English in adulthood (much harder than as a child), have no specialized degree or skill, and no family in the states.

People that could have joined the normal working class at home with less debt, less stress, and less discrimination and led mostly normal lives in their own culture.

Sure the Western consumer has nice electronics and Nike shoes, etc. But everyone seems to be in denial about the impending collapse of the entire economy and how dire the lives of the workers are right now.

It’s going to be a rough century and it’s only getting started.

They are caused by bacterial infection and not stress or capsaicin, so I sure hope he could claim an injury if their cooks are contaminating food lol

Civilized countries do exactly this. Workers in non-failed states take 1-3 months of paid time off a year.

It’s a uniquely American perspective to be squeezed year round just for the bourgeois to deal all the value you created.

The funniest part is Cubans have better medical care than the American working class, including completely novel vaccines that have existed for decades that America doesn’t let its citizens have lmao

It depends what you’re looking for. If you don’t care about story and community, you can purchase a boost right to the endgame (or I guess, start-game of this expansion) and start playing the latest content almost immediately. It’s really not a hard game even at the 2nd hardest content tier. I could regularly out-DPS the DPS players as a healer in pugs.

However, FF14 also famously has some of the best storytelling and communities in the genre. Even catching up to Stormblood would take hundreds of hours and there are like 3 new expansions since then.

Personally the appeal to me was the immersion, working through the story from the start, making bonds and connections with other players and your guild. This takes time and if you have it, the game will show you plenty to do.
