    Children should just fucking starve. They should think twice about being born poor.

    THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT REPUBLICANS SAY. WHAT THEY THINK. THEY DON’T EVEN TRY TO HIDE IT. THIS IS A ACTUAL TALKING POINT

          If you prune their roots and little branches then you can keep them small. Also using wire to shape them can create a more interesting character.

          I’m pretty sure that’s how it works.

            I forgot to water my bonsai and someone called CPS. Fortunately, Iowa stopped funding that department too.

          And some kids are fat because they go through periods of eating nothing but junk food to period of food insecurity, so they still aren’t getting enough to eat and they live in a food desert.

        Kids ARE fat because the poor feed their families the cheapest foods available which are high carb foods that make them crave even more high carb foods.
