    So, dear reader, notice how whenever defenders of tipping come along, it’s always the same story.

    Oh boohoo my poor minimum wage (which is pegged to the same minimum wage as non-tipped workers in states where most people live).

    Ever wonder why it’s always about the minimum wage and never about how much money they make?

    Any server with 2 brain cells clears $40 an hour in untaxed cash wages every shift.

    They never report it on their taxes, and yet they will cry about their poor wittle wage at every opportunity expecting people that make half their salary to tip them 100% for rudely dropping off a plate once and never coming back, making you wait 20 minutes to close a check.

    Notice the pattern. Remember how I was right next time.

    Ask them if they’d rather abolish tipping next time. Notice how none of them say “yes”.






  • Liberals: MUH SENSORSHIP NOOOOO

    Reality: every U.S. leftist content creator has been physically visited by FBI agents and have a file maintained on them, despite never once making a threat or call to violence.

    Meanwhile, China has lifted hundreds of millions out of crushing poverty and built the world’s best high speed rail system, only in the last 10-15 years.

    And they make fun of Xi and criticize their government just fine.

    Every accusation liberals make is a confession. Really weird how they keep acting indistinguishable from literal Nazis while accusing the left of doing the same thing.

    Oh look, there it is again. Libs just can’t stop taking Ls.



  • Biden also voted for repealing Glass-Steagall, directly causing the worst financial crisis in most Americans lifetimes and billions more worldwide.

    Obama, with notable Vice President Biden, also supported and enacted the largest bank bailout in history after said crisis, directly causing an economic spiral that continues into today because nothing was fucking fixed.

    Look, I resist the accelerationist urge every day. But man is it fucking hilarious to watch capitalism collapse on itself, exactly as Marx wrote 100 years ago with no fucking internet.

    The best part? All the brainwashed liberals going literally insane because the world is changing in ways they cannot comprehend.

    What happens when an indoctrinated imperial core faces the real contradictions of their own ideology?


  • Consider that the Windows handhelds are going to age very poorly, and arguably already are, while the Deck has only gotten better over time.

    If it’s worth the money right now for your personal situation, go for it fam. Very few regret it, except maybe don’t buy the cheapest model with like a 5gb ssd lol

    Also if you’re USian, the incoming tariffs are about to make tech unaffordable for most people. I picked up a 4070ti super, arguably terrible value, because I saw the future. We’ll see if I fumbled it lol.




  • Wow the liberal war hawks are really reaching this time, huh? Now they’ve been reduced to pretending conscription is totally democratic and wars of aggressive expansion are good and fine.

    The absurdity comes from being an educated observer of their behavior, forced to act like fools by pretending they’re not the ones starting imperialist conflicts while clearly doing so in reality.

    That’s why none of this post’s discussion makes sense, liberals just constantly spew fallacies and derail the argument while adding their cute irrelevant sneers nonstop. It cannot make sense or the liberal is revealed for what they truly are.







  • Ehh that studio on the right is perfectly livable for two adults. Common to see in Europe.

    The left looks like some cursed dorm-type setup with shared restrooms and kitchens which is just unsanitary (have you met an average American?).

    But the size is fine. Americans just insist on having ridiculous amounts of square footage to “live” because they don’t live. The US has no third spaces so either you go somewhere and pay for the privilege of being there, or you use your apartment as your all-in-one space for gatherings, exercise, relaxing, creating, etc.
