I'm not from the US: What happened to Katie Britt, who gave her response to Biden's State of the Union address from her kitchen? Is she happy now? I mean, not that I wanted to criticize anyone, but that was totally obvious even before the election.

No, no, no. She's not one of those women, you see. That's for the other women.

When are they going to start coming for the black folks so we can watch Clarence Thomas squirm?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

You mean so we can watch him vote yes on it?

Wow, leopards are going to get chonky at this rate.

I mean, a major problem in society is that two incomes are required to pay off a mortgage - and making one member of that equation unable to work society wide would solve that, leading to mortgages and hence housing price calibration (calibrating it to a single wage income)....

...but I was kind of hoping that wouldn't be a product of gender segregation. Also this seems like it's going to affect a lot of other things and people women's autonomy and hence freedom and safety in jeopardy.

No Bueno.

Realistically, the loss of women's income would lead to a housing crisis as millions of families are unable to pay their mortgage, but it's naive to think housing prices will plummet. Plenty of vulture capital firms and the like will happily scoop those houses up to rent back to us in perpetuity.

Fucking hilarious. Serves them right.

There is some phrase involving (symbolic) intercourse and uncovering knowledge describing the sequence of events rather well. What was it again? Have sex and be enlightened? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Fornicate and figure it out.

Nice, maybe this is the extra little push for some turncoats in congress.
