Because the nazis America brought in to build them are all dead.

Leon deserves to get Luigi’d.

It’s the opposite. They’re inundated with propaganda. They hyper-capitalist “work at the expense of family and life” and the entire chaebol system is f’d.

They’re an occupied nation that everyone pretends isn’t. But show me another country where the military answers to foreign commanders.

Also, it’s illegal to read/watch/listen to North Korean media. If you say anything remotely positive about DPRK, good luck to you.

I’ve been hoping it won’t be the last CEO to get deposed.

They work worse but are less likely to act up socially or politically because we’re so exhausted and burnt out from office BS.

Retro fashion.

Maybe they’re wearing them ironically.

A pimply, greasy, meth smoking teen jerked off into my the cheese sauce. Or at least bragged about it to one of the co-workers.

Needless to say we had to dump the batch. As if they wasn’t bad enough, when we dumped it, the bottom was caked in some kind of disgusting mold. It had probably been weeks or months since it had been emptied or cleaned

I worked a couple fast food jobs in college. Trust me when I say, you shouldn’t eat fast food.

There was an incident with the cheese sauce when I worked at Arby’s. I have not had any processed cheese sauce from any restaurant since.

My aunt in Canada has had 2 hip replacements. And while she did have to wait, which is worse: waiting and not being in crushing medical debt? Or waiting a bit and having almost no costs?

The sign at their table says Speed relationships.

This is exactly correct. Child of the early 70s.

I heard my peers say this about the 80s and had to laugh and laugh.

For every Prince, there were 100 sucky bands.

It’s the natural evolution of capitalism to descend into imperialism and fascism. The republicans, or ‘classical liberals’ are just the vanguard, while the dems, or ‘neoliberals’ are the brake.

At best the dems are just slowing the speed of the descent. But without a systemic change, it’s inevitable.

This is capitalism. It doesn’t care where it comes from or how the money comes in. But b***h better have my money.

This is why the country is going to hell. It can’t even invest in infrastructure anymore because there’s no short term profit in it.

Welcome to our late stage capitalist nightmare.

Seems like a win for the morality police.

Cost! The cheap disposable blades are horrible to shave with. The good ones are crazy expensive.

Good quality safety razors are cheap! I bought a pack of blades and it’s lasted me literally years. It probably cost me $10-15 too.

You have to shave lighter. Once you get used to it, they work incredibly well.

With a 3-5 mini razor Mach something, you can push pretty hard before you cut yourself.

Safety razors it’s much lighter touch but it still shaves very close. I bought one of these 10 years ago and it’s still going strong. Safety razors are cheap to buy and once you get used to it, works just as well if not better.

Safety razors are the best! They are cheap, you can buy a bunch of quality blades for pennies compared to a “Mach 3” or whatever.

Once you learn how to shave with one, there’s no going back.

I’ve started buying stuff on Blu Ray. I own it, I can watch it offline, and some company can’t randomly remove it.

I suspect there’s going to be a mini resurgence of physical media.

For stuff I don’t care to own, and can’t find on the 2 services I pay for, there’s the high seas.

Tolerance is not a moral precept, it’s a peace treaty

Fantastic read on this. Reader view worked for me.
