Perhaps they want to get fired? Does Wisconsin have added unemployment benefits? TikTok “influencers” are really awful about encouraging shit like this. And it has real world consequences.
I don’t know what to make of it all…it’s hard to explain but i cultivate very specific skill sets….if they think those things are marketable elsewhere they’re insane.
But of a lot of McDonalds (for my field) are opening up in the area…my guess is I’m being poached

Another thing…i had to fire/demote 5 people in the past few weeks…they were literally doing nothing…and when called out didn’t care….and gave no fucks about being let go…
Costing me clients, being negligent, sometimes just not showing up…these are people I’ve had for years. Wtf is going on?

I tried to go to two places today for lunch…both were incomprehensibly closed.
I don’t know what’s going on…but it appears to be happening rapidly.
Where the fuck are the Dems right now?!

I 100% believe that! I’m sure he would, but so would Joe.
I can understand why SG would like him, but even he would pick DeSantis over Trump. Ron is a politician who likes to throw red meat. I don’t like him. He’s really no different than any other conservative.
I’m still holding out hope for Kobluchar or Dan Crenshaw.
I think we can all agree Mike Pence has zero chance.
It’s unfortunate Pence has no chance…somehow during all this I’ve gained respect for him.
DeSantis would beat Joe…and he should…i can’t believe how far Biden has allowed this all to go…
No one wants to hear about how congress is impeding his agenda…
My guess is a lot will happen in the 3 months leading up to midterms…a lot of stuff that should’ve already happened…some watered down version of build back better…and it’ll be so see through that it won’t move the needle much. Student loans will be addressed half heartedly…a lot of stupid giveaways.
I don’t buy into the dementia shit…never have…and if trump runs again he’ll be older than Biden when he ran in 2020. Being an octogenarian is apparently a prerequisite to winning these days.
He was elected to be a Centrist…except he’s gotten nothing done.

Trump was not a dictator
He wanted to be tho…

I voted for Kasich in 2016 but now he is out of touch and too soft. Last time he was on Maher it didn’t go to well for him.
Ron DeSantis is a total badass. Would love to see him win it all.
It seems like you love candidates that a more authoritarian…those that love to abuse power and ignore what state and local officials want….
DeSantis and Trump will destroy each other…it’ll be fun to watch someone give Trump what he so willingly dishes out.
Neither are fit to govern bc they can’t get congress to do anything. Both have long patterns of just doing whatever the hell they want.
I think you must be very attracted to dictators.
#237 Re: The Garden » Current Events Thread » 227 weeks ago
The candidates on both sides are going to be mediocre.
I wish Kasich could somehow pull a rabbit out of a hat. I'll take him over Desantis any day of the week. He's getting old too. Unfortunately I think his window closed.
I was ready to vote for Kasich. Not that it would have mattered in my state…
I will not vote for a republican until Trump is expunged.

I agreed with you and you tried to turn it into an argument just so you can be a miserable, pissy discontent.
School and soft target security, gun regulations, and strengthening red flag laws was not an expression of outrage. We don’t stay on a topic because of you and your behavior. See the example just above.
What did you agree with?
Do you agree those cops were fucking pussies and actually hindered the situation?
#239 Re: The Garden » Current Events Thread » 228 weeks ago
We spent days talking about school safety, which you didn’t engage in, so I don’t know what you’re talking about.
If your answer is banning guns or something similar then that’s not an answer or an argument I want to get involved in.
Transitioning should he heavily regulated? If that was the case it’s kind of moot in punishing parents. Kids who need it should get it, but the qualifications should be high.
Oh please…that wasn’t much of a discussion as it was an expression of outrage…a few days passed and we’ve all forgotten.
The reason school shootings continue is because too many people don’t think it’s a problem.
#240 Re: The Garden » Current Events Thread » 228 weeks ago
Young girls are VASTLY more likely to regret transitioning and seek detransition. There’s a lot of reasons for that, mainly that they’re more susceptible to peer pressure, insecurity, the need to belong, emotional issues, etc. it’s really heartbreaking to hear them talk about their regret with getting mastectomies and hysterectomies at 16!
My view on this is pretty clear, and trans people suffer from mental illness, especially personality disorders at a far greater level than most others, but it’s also used to justify bigotry. They use it as a disguise that they’re “concerned” about children’s safety. No, they’re really not.
If only people like you were as concerned about safety consistently. School shootings seem to be at least as life threatening as school shootings. This doesn't seem like genuine concern for other to me...it just seems like a bunch of people too weirded out to be rational.
What rational parent would allow their child to change their gender at 5 years old? And if an irrational parent allows this to happen there are most certainly safeguards in the medical community that wouldn't allow it. If you're still outraged then what do you suggest? Do you think these kids are better of in foster care or as orphans of some kind?
So far all I see is a bunch of people trying to tell other what to do.
