  • I thought about going all out with this post and doing a little comic strip, like a panel of bean-joker smugly delivering his line to brat-man, a cutaway panel depicting a high society dinner party where a guest reaches for some chips but the bowl is empty, and then it cuts back to the interrogation room, the partygoers have breached the door and they’re tearing bean-joker apart and devouring him.

    Idk I decided that’s a lot of work for a joke someone has probably already gotten to before.




















  • If I say “Isn’t it such shit that our tax money goes to bombs and guns instead of hospitals and schools, and in fact those bombs and guns are so that we can blow up hospitals and schools in countries that have never been a threat to us?”

    And the person I’m talking to responds, “Yeah we should do austerity, the wealthy can’t keep babysitting the rest of society.”

    I can be reasonably assured that I wasn’t going to be getting anywhere with that person, and they were never worth my time.

    I feel like we should take it in stride that libs are susceptible to certain rhetoric only, and we should work towards refining that rhetoric, but the “taxes for bombs” argument is pretty effective for the average person who really only cares about cost of living issues, I don’t think we should throw it out entirely.

    I’m open to alternative approaches of course.
