Did they just forget about change of administation last month?
Did they just forget about change of administation last month?
I'm in a +50 Harris neighborhood btw, they were blasting fireworks and honking their cars, all night long... I not sure how they can just be so happy... 🤷♂️
Trump wanted KC to win. This is a far greater victory for the "resistance" than anything we've seen from the democrats.
This is a marathon not a sprint. Don't burn yourself out emotionally.
Right? We're only on Week 7 out of 52, of Year 1.
The year 1 thing implies there’s a ready end to it, but…
- The administration has floated monarchy laws to let him continue beyond 4 years
- We thought last time that his harm would lead him to have no vote again, and yet much of the country felt the same way as before. There’s no promise of anything but a constant fight even if voting proceeds the same as before next time.
The little silver lining is: It might be less than four years. Don’t know where things will go…
I mean people are allowed to enjoy the things that make them happy especially when shits real bad my brother.
Two things can be true at once. Let people enjoy their moment of happiness.
It’s important to find joy where you can in tough times even more than the good times. Take some solace in the fact that some Trump allies in the Chiefs locker room a fat L last night.
GO BIRDS
Moral is a battleground and a blue blue city just beat the team from very red Missouri.
Oh, the other team is from a red area? Cool, I guess this celebration kinda makes sense. (I'm not a sports fan and I have zero clue lol 😅)
Pat Mahomes is a Trump guy IIRC, as is Harrison Butker. You probably saw Butker’s “get back to the kitchen, ladies” graduation commencement speech he gave last May. The good guys won
so which part was confusing, the bread or the circus?
The part where I didn't get any bread and had to shoplift it while having to sneak into the circus because the tickets were too expensive.
well Trump certainly won’t be inviting them over for the finest in cold stale hamberders
The NFL and superbowl certainly still plays its role well. Colosseum bread and circus still very much works. Distract, pacify, forget, worry about this other thing that has perceptive stakes you could identify with and back and feel the illusory risk of none real consequences if you align with one of the teams. Lost the political one with the real actual consequences that have more or less destroyed the country you grew up in possibly forever? Maybe a sports victory will help placate you, feel the rush of this victory ignore how you and your family in fact lost it all.
Celebrating your sports team win isn't any less productive than doom scrolling
"Doomscrolling" is infinitely more productive. At least then you're staying up to date and getting information that actually matters about the place you live and the planet you're on. Ignoring it and calling it "Doomscrolling" is exactly how they're hoping you'll react. But whatever you want to do dude if you think memorizing facts about our society and planet is less productive than knowing the history or stats of some sports team where they trade players regularly no amount of conversation will convince you.
Look at it this way. there is very little that you can do about it at the time being. It makes zero sense to hard focus on the bad things in life, even more-so when they are out of your control.
Enjoy the small things, and when the possibility to make the change you want arises again, then you can focus on the bad. Until then cheer up, live a little. Don't let the cloud saturate your personality or mind.
Panem et circenses. Ad infinitum.
Thanks for popping my bubble. Every year I try to see how long I can go before finding out who won. My record is four days.
