General Politics Discussion (IX) [ARCHIVED] • Page 1663

The other night I was driving home from work on Rt 9 just outside of Boston. I drive a brown diesel station wagon with booster seats in the back, and I'm going about 60 and it's probably a 55. I'm driving along and a really nice, souped up white pickup truck with two young 20's maybe kids in it gets in the lane next to me and starts goosing it and falling back right next to me like they want to race. I rolled my window down, and the kid rolled his window down too and he kinda did like a head-fake thing like 'aw shit, it's on now', and I yelled to the kid "I'm in a brown station wagon, man. You really want to race a brown station wagon?!?" He looked all crestfallen and just rolled his window up and drove off.

I know this was not a safe thing to do at all and I definitely just shouldn't have engaged, but Boston traffic fucks with me and by midnight at the end of the week I'm psychologically just done with it all.

 

Fuck this country

 

This is hilarious, I'm imagining he wasn't even being mean or aggressive he just wanted to have (extremely dangerous, moronic) fun

 

He and his traitor wife need to go away

 

Everything sucks

 

I’m sitting here at breakfast just saying “mother fucker” to myself like Lawrence from Westworld. That’s all I got right now.

fuck.

 

Love being almost 40 in 2022 and going backwards

 

As the son of a gay man, I'm very appalled and scared rn. Thankfully Massachusetts is pretty progressive, but fuck.

 

At least we still have mermaiding:

Fin-tastic! Growing 'mermaiding' subculture makes a splash

 

I'm out here looking for any shred of hope that we're not completely fucked:

 

V bad

 

My stomach is in knots. Fuck every single one of them. If my birth control were to fail me AND IT HAPPENS and an abortion was not available, the “baby” would have fatal birth defects because of my transplant meds. Women don’t fucking matter in this country.

Edit:I’m in Illinois. As of now with a D governor, I’m okay. But it won’t be that way forever. I also have family in states that are going to ban abortions immediately.

 

its gonna be that friday work day where we're all just refreshing our screens.

 

Take the streets and light everything on fire, not sure what a better use of time is this weekend

 

Drinking my coffee so there's room in mug for liquor

 

Cannot wait for Biden's twitter account to post: "We need to stand together and fight together!" just in time for them to all go fuck themselves over the weekend.

This country is purely terrible and moving backwards.

 

Currently have my headset on listening in on some town hall meeting, but I keep doom scrolling instead of paying attention

 

sorry guys i just don't think we can vote our way into saving this shithole country

 

If you see one in public you have a moral imperative to *chloroform rag draped over face as I am hastily shoved into a large duffel bag and dragged offscreen*

 

Fuck everything
