  • the same % of Americans have always been stupid. but for a long time it was honest ignorance that made them pliable, in small communities, to conmen… who quickly worked their con and moved on to the next town.

    But thanks to the internet connecting disparate crazies, and elevating crazy to a mainstream voice, and then hostile foreign powers elevating that further on social media thanks to the internet, giving it a heavy dose of false legitimacy… its devolved into a unique bouillabaisse of cromagnum hyper-idiocy the likes the world probably has never seen before.

    and thank to isolated media bubbles like Fox News and OANN, it will only continue to get worse and worse.












  • the fact that my grandmother absolutely, hard ass refuses to do anything that would improve her situation. Just bitches and moans and has great big narcissistic pity parties until someone forces it down her fucking throat.

    For example, her vision isnt great, she complaints its hard to use the computer cause she cant see to type (Shes one of those chicken peck typers). I tell her to get a large print keyboard with a backlight, it’d be easier for her to see and use.

    She says no, it wont help. nothing will help. boo hoo pity me blah blah bullshit.

    Long story short, it goes back and forth for a month, with her refusing the idea, refusing when I directly link her to a keyboard to buy (it was cheap, too), etc etc. Just making a big fucking woe is me pity party out of it.

    I finally say fuck it, buy the goddamn keyboard myself, take it over to her house, put it on her computer.

    within 5 minutes “Why didnt you tell me about this before? Its amazing! I can see it and use the computer again!”

    Shes the reason i’ve been balding for 20 years.
