Thank you!

Anon plays DnD

Cool, a meme I can send to my friend who started playing DnD this year!

“… it’s like snakes are in my asshole trying to rip it apart!”

… I can’t allow another human’s eyeballs to read this

I deadass 😭 how can it be a mnemonic for 362 5968?

No, it’s about the scale of society and how we support ourselves in retirement, though. See, if retirement funds rely on, as the guy above me says 1. Companies underpaying their employees and 2. Governments taxing a group of more people in the below generations than there are to support in the top - then those are unsustainable sources of retirement comfort.

So what would be sustainable? Well historically, and in some countries today, old people need family to support them into old age. You would need either your own kid, with their own house big enough for you, or a rich little nephew with a house big enough for all you and your siblings to live in while retired.

Or… We just do the decent thing and take care of non-relatives. To ease the load on, say, retirement homes, we’d need to agree across society to bring the old people into communities of younger adults, and those younger adults would need to check on them regularly.

Sice this requires a community binding together, you might call it “communism.” Though it isn’t necessarily Marxism.

I may be stupid but I still don’t get how FUCK YOU spells 382 5968. Is it because she accidentally went onto letters by tapping too much?

Both can be a problem

Sounds to me like we’ll have to do a communism, i.e banding together to help each other out more, to allow people to retire in comfort. The horror!

(Just in case it seems like I’m dismissing anything you said, I’m not, and thank you for your analysis. My main takeaway is that it seems an unavoidable problem)

I feel like this as well.

This is one of those posts where I get confused, lose track of who’s criticising who, and end up downvoting by mistake. But (as usual!) I realised my mistake and gave you an upnudge instead

Lack of success of non-far right (and non-right) in many areas where only far right provide answers, plans or solutions. Instead of accepting this people instead suggest it’s illegal to have different ideas to them. Lemmy is one such place. And then congratulations, you’re making the problem worse.

Also consider that the regime needs or thinks it needs a “far right” and “far left” so it can posit itself as the “reasonable centre.” Maybe when we analyse some things proposed by so called far right and far left they don’t look so “far” after all, and can even exist in synthesis with one another. But when you say far left or far right you think of the worst thing that you’re told to associate with that movement.

Professional thing up the ass taker

I have a sigmoidoscopy on the horizon and I saw the doctor’s referral and noticed it said something like “no anesthesia needed” - madam who made that decision? 😭

Yeah there are more important things than cumming and losing weight. A lot of more important things! Hope you’re thriving

Lol!

Someone i knew who was really academically excellent without any effort, he loves/loved rhythm games. I think people are drawn to games which fill a void of what they can get out of their own life, so someone who doesn’t play a musical instrument or sports for instance can get that from rhythm games.
