Lol yeah, like I wanna live like a refugee in my native country. And I’m wrong somehow for not being OK with that?

Get fucked with that shit, friend. I’m not willing to gamble what little I have on possibility, better infrastructure or not. Its not like that would change the regime I’m under or anything.

I’m not who you replied to, but this is a stupid take.

My area doesn’t have public transit to speak of, its semi-rural small town, and everything is in another town, so I’m forced to drive. Everywhere around here is like this. I explicitly do not have the option to move to a more urban area because I live in a very low cost of living area, which means very depressed wages, and I genuinely cant afford to move, much less live somewhere with walkable infrastructure or decent public transit, without better wages first. Because no, getting rid of everything and starting over isn’t an option, nor should it have to be.

And I didn’t choose to be here in the first place, either. When you are born into a very low cost of living area, you often get stuck there or can only move somewhere even further behind, because wages are so depressed you can’t save enough to get into a better area. The only way you get out is if you can land a good job before moving, which is insanely difficult, since remote work usually scales to the local wages, and who can afford to travel for in-person interviews?

Just move is easy to say when you can bring home more than you pay in bills, or have enough in savings to cover a few months until you find work or whatever, and its really easy to say when you already live in an expensive area. But its not actually a practical option for many of us.

So idk about that other person, but yes, I’m fucking tired of being told to just move if I don’t like how things are. Condescending out-of-touch bullshit, is what it is.

I think the word you were looking for is extradite, which is sending someone home/to the country where crime was committed, to face their justice system.

Excommunication is kicking someone out of a religion/the church, specifically christian afaik, though not all use that word :)

I’m like 90% certain its crabdance/crab rave, something I’m not actually familiar with but which many many many people on the internet say they will be posting when certain horrible people die.

Why, I do not know.

I might just do the ps5 one cuz I genuinely never use that fucking thing. I play disc games (as in wont pay for digital) and there just aren’t a lot for ps5…

Thats an awful lot of work thats going to cost taxpayer money when “move over, gramps, let the next batch have a try” is completely free.

Who cares if there are still a couple good old people? There are also good young people chomping at the bit to take over. People who aren’t hopelessly out of touch with reality and the rest of the population.

People shouldn’t be in government past an age where they likely wont be alive for the next decade of consequences from their actions. I’d personally lower the cutoff to like 64. They got their chance to set policy, let people who will live in the world they are making be the ones who steer the boat.

If we try that and it ends up not working, we can reassess. But until we try we’ll never know because those people aim to die in office, and burn the place down on the way out.

“Wrecked EV battery” usually actually means batteries that were in damaged shipping containers. Perfectly good and never used for anything, but not sellable for car use anymore.

At least all the ones I looked at were like that.
