As I just posted in the crazy religion thread- the whole system is just a scam.
Price of a degree should be about the price of 1 year starting salary.
Starting salary is 60k? 15k/yr for 4 years.

Itâs also a throwback to the late YouTalkFunny, who was on SS+GODCAD, a gallon of diet coke a day.

Sir, please have a seat.
Iâm not even gonna look, but wasnât the exact quote something like âI SECURED THE FUNDING that led to the creation of the internetâ? And then people (ok, not people, right-wing reactionary talk radio assholes) changed it to âMeow he said he invented the internet meowâ and that shit caught on because people werenât generally aware that we were doing full-blown Nazi radio at that point?

The only type of tea that I ever really got into and enjoyed was ceremonial grade matcha. If youâre looking for a way to cut back, I can promise you that at about $40/oz for the good shit, you wonât be drinking gallons of it a day.

I mostly drink tea when itâs cold and then itâs usually some cinnamon spice stuff because plain black or green is too bland. Iâm sure thatâs unsophisticated or whatever but idc.
Sounds like homemade chai tea tea
Got myself a gongfu tea kit a year or two ago, very easy and it makes great tea.
People drink that with milk usually, right? I donât do that. Itâs this
Iâm old enough I think Iâm losing my senses of smell and taste so I need something with a little extra kick.
Honestly, Hunter Biden seems like a guy Iâd want to chill with. He seems like the least bad failson out there.

I think this is accurate. In some theoretical alternative reality I could understand the idea of having the government subsidize for profit companies to produce things of broad social value. But in our current reality it makes no sense to do that without having dealt with foundational stuff as a higher priority (human rights, health care, environment, preserving the last tattered remains of democracy etc. are obvious higher priorities for government action) AND on top of that the private sector is so awash in private capital that people like Elizabeth Holmes and WeWork Guy are getting billions of dollars of investments to produce nothing of positive value.
I can actually understand how the heads of various departments in the Federal government can get caught in this trap of enacting their own blindered agenda without regard for the bigger picture. The US Federal Government is literally the largest enterprise in human history and centralized operational prioritization is probably literally impossible. It makes sense to move forward priority #128 when and if you can and not send it up the food chain for formal approval from head office, if the government couldnât do anything until climate change was solved, for example, that would be Republican wet dream of government inaction. So as frustrating as it is to see some weak sauce corporatist policy getting passed when there is no action on the absolute top priorities, the real problem here IMO is the failure to move on the top priorities. And it goes without saying that Joe Biden is a terrible leader in a time that calls for bold action on key fronts. 79 year old Nothing Will Fundamentally Change Guy isnât up to the task.

Call it the âfree curly fries if the nationals hit a grand slam actâ
These people should have voted harder for Biden. Thatâll teach 'em.
