I know it’s really easy to assume boomer === bad.
But to call them all Trump supporters is inaccurate.
If you said “All white people are Trump supporters”, that’s slightly more correct than old.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.nettoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Loan plan in Republican bill could worsen doctor shortage, experts warn1·4 months agoThe cost of medical education is so high, America currently imports doctors from other countries. 1 in 5 doctors, according to the stats.
With the way we treat immigration, expect that number to drop significantly. And we have doctors fleeing.
Add that to having some of the most incompetent government officials who are propping up chemicals companies and disregarding societal health – we are looking at a time bomb.

ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This is how Uber is manipulating americans. They sent an emergency message to everyone in the city, telling them to protest. The tax is $1 to improve public transitEnglish9·4 months agoI don’t think so.
When my city had a soda tax, every fucking store put a sign out calling it a war on poor people tax. But it was a $0.10 increase on sugary drinks to add to the educational budget.
Or maybe it is illegal but I live in a shit hole country.

ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness'English2·4 months agoHey, you’re like me. I HATED soup for decades. Can soup BS was disgusting. Soup on the side of my burger, gross.
Then I went to a real soup place. Like all they did was soup. Like professional level soup that’s $8 a cup or $12 a bowl.
My god - it was incredible. I now understand the Soup Nazi bit of why anybody would tolerate that behavior.
I went from clean shaven anti-souper to a god damn soup coke fiend.
Hoping that’s the case. This guy is 36 years old.

Unpopular opinion:
There’s this edgy incel dude I know, way into anime and 4chan bullshit. I invite him to parties 2-3 times a year because maybe I think there’s hope for him to reintegrate into society.
In the past few months, I’ve been telling him to use AI to run through his thoughts and check them before coming to me. And honestly, his maturity/personality is getting more tolerable.
Or maybe this is delusional on my part. What I do know is he hasn’t shouted “Hitler did nothing wrong” as a joke anymore.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This led to a very confusing discussion in the replies about the varying fares and systems of public transit in the Oakland-San Francisco areaEnglish3·4 months agoThis is the norm where I live too, AND my city has a relatively good public transportation system.
I worked at a major tech company in 2018 who didn’t take security seriously because that was literally their philosophy, just refusing to do anything until it was an absolute perfect security solution, and everything else is wasted resources.
I left since then and I continue to see them on the news for data leaks.
Small brain people man.
It “woke” something up inside of them
I just checked out Airbnb recently and they have a banner that states the price tag is now the ENTIRE PRICE. No more $300 sticker price followed by $200 of fees during checkout.
It’s a step in the right direction.
Unfortunately, hosts are still bundling bullshit like post checkout clean the floor, wash the roof, and milk the dog else be fined.
People would talk about Baltimore as being a really scary place.
And I wished they talk more about Tennessee being just a sad awful state.
