There's something to be said about how interconnected a lot of major issues in the world are. Many solutions to specific issues don't solve the underlying reason why that issue came about in the first place, laying the groundwork for the same issue to pop up again in a few years, which is why people push to fix systemic things. (Though I do think for the sake of accuracy and humor, the last line of the comic should be "No, that is too big of an issue to possibly change").

We just have to accept that some people are "give a man a fish" people and others are "teach a man to fish" people. I think the world needs both for things to actually get better. Then there's another group of people who just don't like hearing the cries of the less privileged when they themselves are perfectly comfortable with how things are (shown in the comic) and who often wears a mask imitating the "teach a man to fish" person. The "teach a man to fish" people and "please stop complaining" people might both target their complaints towards the "give a man a fish" people, but that doesn't mean that those two groups are the same or have the same goals. Pay no attention to bad actors who will try to prevent any movement towards a better world when it costs a bit of their own comfort.

God I love Derry Girls. It's about time for a rewatch

Joining/starting unions and mass strikes would be much faster if you are able. Sure, vote too, but the premise of this post specifically says they don't care what you think. Make them care.

Finally, I can pop this bottle of Veuve I bought in 2018!

This is definitely AI. And kinda old AI at that. The backgrounds are nondescript, the facial hair is ambiguous, the face looks like one of those "upload a photo to see it realistically move with the magic of AI", the shirt looks airbrushed and ambiguous, he has dark eyes instead of very blue eyes like in real life, and if you try to look up pictures of any interviews of him in those particular years, he usually has facial hair and a button down, sometimes with a jacket.

Compare the upper right and lower left picture on this post with this similar meme. Film grain is missing (possibly due to AI "beauty filters"?) and how the upper right image, his eyes are way more blue. I think the original meme creator probably wanted to make it look like all 4 pictures were the same gray shirt rather than 4 different gray shirts since the bottom left shirt in the picture I posted is heathered gray instead of flat gray.

Bad cop vs Good cop vs burn the precinct down and protect your own neighborhood.

What a terrible time for me to try to tell friends about how cool Gemini is

Everyone knows the true test of a person's character is the consistency of their grinder, not the brewer. (please don't look on my kitchen countertop- it's full of almost all of these and a single hand grinder. My forearm is crying for help)

Half joking response- but wouldn’t the survivorship bias mean those who were surviving only on minimum wage alone didn’t survive for very long?

Smoke smoke weed smoke smoke weed every day day

If I was a fae creature, I'd get the endless candle so I could lure people to my hut in the forest and they would not get a sense of danger at all (assuming everyone around the candle can also feel the effects by smelling it)

The fact that the pillow won't help my awful insomnia (or help you fall asleep in general) makes it so close to being the best choice to me, but it falls short in the most frustrating way.
