The imgur album linked in the comment is almost 100% disinformation once it starts describing the alleged atrocities.

It would be great if we could only support countries that were 100% good all the time, but tankies support countries that oppose the US even if they're far from good because they recognize that no socialist revolution of any kind is possible until US hegemony is broken.

What Dessalines spouts is by and large uncomfortable truths that are paved over by Western government misinformation and propaganda, your reaction is that of someone clinging to the lies they were raised with rather than accepting the truth.

It was but they had to change it for Shrek and the G-rated version became the canonical one.

I genuinely couldn’t even tell you the last time I saw somebody in real life with wired headphones.

You haven't seen me walking my dog daily then /shrug

I feel like when people make fun of this, it isn't so much Palpy coming back that they have a problem with, but the sudden and unexpected nature of it. It's such hack writing, and it only happened that way because audiences didn't like TLJ and the people making ROS decided to backtrack on every single one of TLJ's plot threads out of fear instead of making expanding on them for a satisfying finale.

I had a friend who did this for a living, he had two phones so he would run Uber Eats and Doordash at the same time in order to try and optimize, and even then he spent a lot of time just sitting around because these apps are extremely inefficient (and later they started cracking down on people trying to increase their pay by doing both, dunno if it's still doable now).

Hear hear for living too far away from DD to be tempted by it. I used to waste a lot of money on it back in like 2021/22, but I moved to a town whose only "fast food" is a burger grill that's attached to the gas station and run by exactly one guy and if he's on break when you show up then you can either wait until he's done or leave and go to the grocery store.

He starts a lot of shit, but dammit if he isn't right most of the time.

Americans have the most individualist "fuck you I got mine" ladder-pulling-upist culture in the entire world. Maybe someday we'll have a cultural revolution and come out the other side less anti-social, but in the meantime if you want anything done in this country you've got to convince people that there's something in it for them.
