I'm just amazed that Pierre knows what a graph looks like. I really thought all he was capable of was catchy one liners.

"babe, wake up, a new verb the noun dropped!"

I mean, I guess 9 is "several," but the ratio tells a very different tale.

A friend of mine once described this kind of behaviour as acting like "welfare moms." While there's a certain level of sexism there that I am sure she really didn't mean in the moment, I get the point she was making: parents who sit at home scheming up the next excuse to call social services on that other parent that they pretend to like but also keep an air of superiority about. And that's all it is. Convincing yourself that you're better than everyone else not by lifting yourself up, but by tearing others down.

It's commen behaviour in narcissists, too. Contrary to popular belief, narcissism is often found in people with low self-esteem. They try to validate themselves by bringing everyone else down below them. It seems like obsession with another person outwardly, but it's still self-obsession: "this person made me look bad, but they're so much worse than me. I need to prove it (even to myself)."

The cost of food and shelter driving people homeless and hungry is evil. The cost of Nintendo products causing people to play fewer Nintendo games is rude and unfortunate.

I'm just pissed off at all this misdirected frustration. We should be lobbying governments to manage grocery and real estate megacorps, and instead we're creating YouTube videos about Nintendo being evil because the price of an individual game went up $20. The gap between unfettered corporate greed of UHC causing suffering on scales previously only seen in wars against Nintendo getting an extra $20 here and there if you want to keep up with their products isn't even a fucking comparison.

And I'm tired of pretending a completely unwelcome and tone deaf price increase is "evil." I hate paying more for videogames as much as the next gamer, but the cost of living has increased by 50% in basically every metric. Rent, food, power, gas, restaurants, movie theatres, snacks, alcohol... Literally everything I spend money on has gone up between 25-50%. Nintendo is the first asshole in the video game industry cocky enough to up their prices by the same amout, and suddenly, "The Switch 2 is EVIL." Really?

Listen, I am not a fan. $10 for a tech demo that should be packaged in is insane. But pull your head back and look at the wider picture instead of coming in here with these terminally online takes. If you can't distinguish between "evil," (like health insurance corporations condemning millions to chronic pain and, in extremes, death) and "shit I wish wasn't so expensive" (like a singular brand of videogames) then maybe it's worth figuring out where the nearest patch of grass is.

I'm actually kinda relieved it was not someone who sincerely held Left-leaning ideals...anything that genuinely gives the Big Orange Idiot something to run his nonsense 'with and on' should be properly denigrated and chastised.

Insinuating Trump gives a flying fuck who the actual murderer is. After all the lies Trump has spread, I would not assume the truth would matter to him now.

Misleading title. Yes, Charlie Kirk's assassination sparked a conversation about the importance of free speech and disavowing political violence. The standing ovation was not for Charlie, but for the outcome of that speech.

Still, you'd think they'd at least TRY to be reasonable with the optics of the conversation.

15-20 years ago, Carney's platform would be PC, and Polieverre's failed platform would have been a joke.

The current US President and convicted paedophile famously crossed paths

Crossed paths with who? There's only one Donald Trump.

Yeah, but why is this in shitpost, though.

I mean, knowing that, I'm a little disappointed that eco terrorism only accounts for less than 33% of all "violent" crime.

It says a lot that I hadn't even heard of her murder.

I mean, I'm Canadian, so I really struggle to keep track of every time one of you lot shoots another, but still, point stands.
