Wow.
This video is truly eye-opening.
Take a couple minutes to watch this.
A mind-boggling visual representation of wealth inequality in America.
This sh*t ain’t workin’, folks.

Everybody gets firsts before anybody gets seconds, but for housing. It should be illegal to stock up on a basic human necessity until people can't afford it. There is not a housing shortage in the USA, there is a hoarding problem.
I judge people who own more than they need. I'm sorry, but I do. That's true if you have a vacation home or if it's a rental property. It's true if it's one property or if it's ten. Your "investment" could be someone else's first and only home.

Walk the streets where no one heals,
No one can hear through all this talking.
Talk all you want in marble mansions,
Yet you won't walk the streets the dead man is walking.
The rich get richer, the poor stay poor,
Both too blind to see an open door.

not to vague about two(2) ppl on twitter but mccr (and regular mcc) is a free event with no monetary rewards, at Most the participants can sell their tokens but literally why the hell would they do that
also just because a team is made of mostly lifestealers does not, in fact, gurantee them a win -- lifesteal does Not only contain tryhards (in fact its mostly non tryhards, part of the appeal of lifesteal is seeing how they manage to survive regardless) and ash literally had 200ms ping during the event. like one of their main strats was literally to avoid the tryhard strats as much as possible and to do things that they know is within their abilities to do (like not taking shortcuts during ace race, wanting to avoid parkour warrior and pvp heavier games cause half their team isnt confident in pvp, taking easier routes in parkour warrior when it did get chosen, etc)
also this just discredits the other participants imo??? like. theyre not the only ppl who trained for this event bruh

Young odysseus convincing everyone Ithaca is nothing but a poor island with rocks and goats to avoid any raids/conquerors/so he doesn't get murdered for talking to Helen bc "it's not like he's a real choice"
Young odysseus falling in love with Penelope at the same event: wait. Wait shit I fucked up hold on just hear me out
#the odyssey#Odysseus#Penelope#Pre-canon(?)#odypen#Odypen meet ulgy#When the cute “bumpkin” boy wants to marry you but only brought 3 goats for your cousins gifts#AND you caught him spying on your family#There's like a single line in the odyssey where I think some god is narratoring (not 100% sure)#And they have a well actually interjection moment to explain how Ithaca isn't just one island it actually has a shit ton of land#And is technically richer then every other country#Which honestly just makes it funnier that odysseus was like welp time to beg again with zero issues for 10 years#But it will never not be funny to me that young odysseus really shot himself in the foot with Penelopes family for the start#Like clearly it worked out but I bet Penelope father HATES him#Listen odysseus showed up to Helen's courting for the drama ONLY he never planned on marrying her#Bc he knew her husband would be murdered immediately#My man showed up for the drama and stayed for Penelope#Otp#I love them#And need more of these two being rat bastards to each other and LOVING it#Listen neither one of them has let a single thing go in their whole life and they like that about the other#Odysseus going to buy anything for his wife ever#Penelope: Oh my can we afford that this is just a simple rock island with a few goats#Odysseus: dressed head to toe in very very rich cloth that his wife made#Ithaca with the fastest ships bc ody designed new ones#Penelope: literally dripping with jewels that were MAYBE stolen (shut up you can't prove anything and Penelope likes it when he's a bastard#Odysseus: you're so right my bad that was so irresponsible for getting you a gift. Perhaps your father would like to pay instead?

The rich get richer while the rest of us starve. Why can't we have an economy that works for everyone?

On one hand "tequila sale e limoni" (tequila salt and lemons but also tequila salt and french kisses) is kind of a banger on the other hand that shot glass is drawn horrifically and if I was bez I'd cry

Dear god my little sister has no real world perspective on politics
A young woman working a firmly middle class job who still lives with her parents, no expenses, never had to struggle with money, will never be rich either, and her political opinions boil down to "we shouldn't spend more money on pensions because it will come out of my taxes"
Talking about anything political with her is so insanely frustrating like she really thinks that she is the one most affected by taxes, and simultaneously she thinks that she's in danger of poverty at an old age. Girl there are politicians who want to fight elderly poverty but you think they're trying to steal from you???

FE Engage: makes it very difficult to use and level every character since the bonus battles meant for grinding scale to be above or on par with your strongest units, and also the entire map immediately charges and dogpiles you.
ALSO FE Engage: shames you by having characters you haven’t used for a while notice and ASK to be used.
