I'm enjoying watching the insanity that is the midterms.

@Shmeh don't call him "the Texan", does the rest of us a disservice.

Night

Soytronaut.

REEEEE

@Danheezee is ghey.

@fuzzyplant I'm still okay with the guy, had a surprisingly quiet moment at a bar with him at the last Mythicist. I enjoy his content for the most part, but the fuckin' drama with Jim has been obnoxious.

@YeetshirtNinja and you're correct. I've got a few accounts I give $1/mo. to and budget out $20 to do it.

@Tea was that for me?

Pretty calm now.

@Daiya The Holy Saviour 📯 weeb thot.

Evening, @󠀀󠀀AK

Sensual.

Disgusting, @Ham Sandwich

Merry Christmas to everyone that isn't a whitey.

I love that the Kemet tags are all cultural appropriation given that Egyptians aren't the "melanated" kangz that want them to be.

@Soupmeme remove "/posts/" from the URL.

@Aya Gotta pay, you penny grubbing kike.

@Soupmeme a friend. Not the one you want, not the one you deserve, but the one you need.

@asda smart price sure, why not?

@Soupmeme she's not even good at that.

@Octavia, well, hi there. Haven't seen you in a minute!

@Octavia "chick". I don't have any respect for 'im. Gotta at least act like a lady for me to respect you as one.

@sweatercowsandsass, why is there an anorexic man's legs being posted?

@Callie what the fuck is wrong with your legs?

Woo

When the house niggas act like field niggas. Shame on you, @󠀀󠀀AK.

@Leeroy, yes?

Alright, big think time, why is it that people desire simultaneous unfettered immigration and socialized systems?

@Jake the Exile Yeah, that was a lot more in depth than me trying to ram the square peg of "Socialism barely works in countries with relatively static populations" into the round hole of "unfettered immigration places a hefty burden on basic welfare systems as it is".

Well said, indeed.

Personally, I think mixed market solutions work and, using medicine as an exanple, we've got a few real world examples of this working where you have what is essentially a baseline health insurance option provided by the government that private insurance and healthcare provision groups (like co-ops that build a massive HSA up) now have to compete with. However, I get "REEE"d at from one side because it still involves money and markets, but from the other side because there's any state intervention at all.

As for immigration, still fine, but control the shit out of it. We need to know who is and why they're coming into the country and there needs to be enforcement of both the law as well as the process for immigrating be it by a wall or just robust law enforcement this side of the border. As an American, I think our best option is to continue our current plan of working with the Mexican government, which has already started to show some results, but there needs to be a little more effort focusing on some of the 'secret police' esque behavior from ICE and trying to sort out what the situation _actually_ is when it comes to us losing children in our custody.

Then you get these shit heads coming in wanting only the most extreme solution of both and it's... infuriating is probably the best word.
