Like I said, I'm improving. It's the world falling apart around me that's making me feel it's a bit superfluous to be achieving mental stability at this point in life.

I work for the good people of the Fediverse 🙏

I return to Reddit mostly to harvest memes to bring here, or to ask obscure questions that I don't think there's enough of an audience here to get a good answer (I'm still looking for the "The Swaggoraki are swarming!" pic, if any Warhammer meme fans can find it)

Bring back some magicka potions!

Immediate stalemate since white can't move

Just feels kinda Roman privilege to assume the almighty wants to hear Latin.

It is. That's why it's a privilege to be a citizen 💪

What's that? Can't tell/Handheld dream, shot in hell

"Donald Trump stands up for the little guy like you and me" - the mental giants we're dealing with

Apathy - the human constant

Maybe the Afghanis didn’t want to be a vassal state to the country that was invading them for 20 fucking years.

Luckily, as every good campist knows, the holsum Taliban, definitely not an imperialist catspaw of Pakistan which has been invading them for 30 fucking years, is widely beloved by comparison.

I mean, the Progressive Politics comm is run by campists who will accept any argument as long as it can loop back around to some form of critique of The West(tm). In that same thread is a commenter saying that violence is the only language those damn woman-educators understand.

Not sure why you expect them to remove this critique of the Western-backed Afghan government, regardless that it's built on a racist premise. It's against Bad Camp, after all!

!historymemes@lemmy.world would love this too!

Looks like the artist is FalseKnees, though I don't see a link in the original.

My mother socialized me too damn well, people IRL think I'm friendly and kind when in reality I hate every last one of those fucks from behind my eyes.

... what a bizarre piece.

They both need to go, albeit for different reasons.

I like how everyone claims all religion is fucked up but there’s only one where this is actually extremely common

The purpose of a legal system is to provide consistent and coherent methods of conflict resolution that are superior for the functioning of general society than means outside of a system of centralized coercion for certain, sufficiently disruptive acts.

By this extremely broad definition, the legal system in my country, the USA, fulfills its purpose. But so would the legal system of fucking Napoleonic France.

More narrowly, a legal system should be oriented towards a standardized means of punishment and reform of those who disrupt the basic functioning of civil society.

By this narrower definition, my country only succeeds on 'standardized means of punishment', and even there arguably only partially. It largely fails at reform, and the punishments are both visited on those who do not disrupt the basic functioning of civil society (minor drug offenses, immigration crackdowns, anti-homeless legislation), and failed to be visited on many of those who do disrupt the basic functioning of civil society (gestures broadly at corporate America and the current coterie of fascists in power in government).
