Nah, people being forced into homelessness and medical debt is too real. Nobody wants to think about that shit, and when it happens to them, they aren't really in a position to deal with it.
Paper straws are perfect. They're the most minor of inconveniences, so people are willing to engage and make jokes about it.
I don't think it's a significant problem, I think it's a significant illustration of the little folk being expected to deal with the inconveniences caused by the wealthy.
The only solidarity we deserve after re-electing the orange fuck is a solid kick up the ass. This is on Americans to fix, and if we can't fix it, the world doesn't owe us shit.
Nah. Not really. Time zones don't follow state boundaries because they generally follow natural population boundaries.
You're not wrong (generally speaking, specifically speaking I use the NYT rent vs. ownership calculator to see if it's worth buying or investing in the sp500)

All this cybertech looks cool as hell until your eyeball cooling drivers crash and your optic processing unit hits 100C like my GPU.

Why would Europe be involved? Did Putin invade someone else?

And as cameras get smaller, pretty soon any glasses will be suspect, meaning that those that need vision correction without being able to wear contacts for whatever reason will also end up lumped in with the creeps.
This is like Batesian mimickry but stupid.
The citizens of other countries have their own lives to deal with, which are being made more complicated by the simple fact that screaming against it this entire time just was not enough.
They have no obligation to stand in solidarity with citizens of the country making their lives harder. This is not collective punishment, this is the predictable outcome of a series of events.
It's like getting hit by an uninsured drunk driver: It may not be our fault, but it will be our responsibility to fix.
