If you’re looking at my account, it likely means I upset you and you’re a moron/retard. It doesn’t matter how much you argue, you’re still wrong and you’re still a fucking moron. If you’re reading this, you know who you are.

Lemmy appears to have a special breed of retards.

  • I have a few tiny couches for my cats. Not crochet, but one is velvet and the other is I guess regular cloth. They don’t really tear them up. Plus velvet is one of the best materials to have with cats. It cleans up easily and because of the way it’s made and feels, it’s not really fun or relaxing for them to claw it.


  • Not really a theory, when it’s been proven true. Many retirees are moving to low CoL areas because their social security and or retirement funds can’t keep up. Lower income people will move if they are able to.

    There are jobs that pop up in these areas, but on average the income is significantly less. For example Tennessee will pay new grad nurses $22 an hour. That’s one of the lowest wages for a bedside nurse. Not enough to live in the city where a hospital is located. I think it was Alabama that passed a state law that prohibited cities from raising the minimum wage for jobs in the city. Jobs in most of these areas pay poverty wages.

    I used to live in Florida and when looking at the average the CoL is lower than my new state Oregon. Yet after moving and living here for a year I pay less on car and home insurance, property taxes, and no sales tax. Sure I might pay a tiny bit more in income tax but my salary is 30% higher for the same job. My wife’s is 45% higher for the same job.

    Not to mention “average” means nothing when rural hick areas are lowering the entire state. Many parts of Florida have a higher cost than most other cities.






  • I understand. But you also can’t read one sentence about me and describe it as lucky. I had shitty abusive parents. I worked my way through college so it took a little longer. Struggled financially at times. Have lived with suicidal tendencies since my parents divorced when I was 12 and became even more shitty and abusive.

    I’m only successful because of myself and the work I’ve put into my life to be where I am today. To me having a role model wouldn’t have done or changed anything. I get that others might need it, but I don’t think every straight white male in America needs a role model and is doomed to be a conservative just because they can’t find one.

    There are plenty of straight white males that are progressive or liberal. The ones that are conservative aren’t that way just because of a shitty role model. Many are shitty in plenty of other ways.
