Big Bad Politics!

Those are built-in 30’’ commercial Sub-Zero units. The pair are $21,000 together ($10,500 each) plus installation cost. They have wi-fi so you can set the temperature on your phone (and if someone knows your wi-fi password they can hack your refrigerator, I know someone who did this) and NASA air purifiers and (Black) sabbath mode so that when Members of a certain tribe open the refrigerator the light doesn’t come on because the Bible totally says turning on a light bulb is work and work is verboten on the sabbath. It’s not some bullshit some cleric invented in the 20th century, honest.

I…didn’t expect a detailed reply about the logic behind a $24k fridge lol. I hate this future where EVERYTHING needs bluetooth and wifi now. Won’t be long before our wallets no longer open until they have a clear wifi connection.

@UrbanMysticDee  
is it so hard nowadays to make a refrigerator that cools and freezes things without much humidity and that it lasts atleast 10 years?
 
they dont make sturdy reliable and simple stuff like they used to anymore

@TeamBlueplant  
Planned obsolescence.
 
I don’t think it’s that hard, it’s just that corps are building everything to break down as soon as warranty runs out.
 
If our stuff lasted 20-30 years, how would they sell the new 1.00001 version 6 months later after they released the version 1.0?
 
Besides the loads of documented instances of this, here’s a piece of anecdotal evidence: (my own experience). I never had any kind of electronics that lasted more than a few years. Laptops, smartphones, you name it. Except, I have this 2012 Kindle Fire HD thing. It’s not just the basic grayscale e-reader, it’s a full on tablet computer. Music, movies, etc. 8 years, still works pretty much damn perfectly, even though I’ve been dragging it around with me for years, reading in both way hot and below zero temperatures, installing some hacked-together apps, etc. on it. Battery lasts a bit shorter of course, but other than that… works fine.
 
Not that Amazon is a good company, but it shows that you can build even electronics to last if you’re up for it.
 
Same thing for everything else. My grandmother has a fridge that’s I don’t know how many decades old. 50? 60? A real friking Soviet relic, and it’s still running.
 
Today’s economy just relies too much on non-stop mass production of crap that breaks down all the time. And then we get all the issues with pollution and recycling…

@UrbanMysticDee  
Ross Perot and Teddy Roosevelt 1912 are the best arguments against the current structure of The Electoral College. After Perot’s unexpected success, the two major parties ensured that third parties could only win by cheating. Gary and Jill (2016) as well as Jo and Howie (2020) should have been on the debate stage.

They were all shit-tier candidates.

 
Clinton’s cat almost got a video game.

6 January we’re going to have a contested election (and, more importantly, it’s Epiphany, and I have to ninja my religious videos into political videos to trick people into watching them).
 
Surprisingly that video got me 2 new subs since 9 AM (and it’s 2 days late because Bitchute uploader is shite and takes forever), AND my Greta video also got me 2 new subs, so that’s 4 in 2 days.

@UrbanMysticDee  
Shit-tier yet still miles ahead of what the Democrats and Republicans put forth.

@πʊßƛįϰ  
It’s not like anyone put forward a candidate who wasn’t open border or pro-war between 2016-2020. Nope, can’t think of any.

Here is the results for the senate runoffs for anyone interested Dems currently in lead.

Every time I hear the news refer to Biden as a radical Socialist I want to break something.

@TheBridge  
The US is completely fucked if the libtards gain control of the senate.

@Dex Stewart  
His political alinement is potato.
 
@UrbanMysticDee  
It’s less about the candidate themselves and more about the principal of it.

@Havoc  
Principles are for losers. The only way to win now is to cheat. No one cares if you cheat if you cheat and win because once you’ve won then your enemies have no power to stop you.

@UrbanMysticDee  
You’re not wrong, but I want that to change.

 
My thoughts on the stimulus checks.

Congress spends all day debating whether stimulus money should be spent or not yet it can always find a veto-proof majority to vote yes on next year’s war funding
 
@UrbanMysticDee  
As the NASCAR motto goes, “if you’re not cheating, you’re not trying”

Shit’s going down. It’s happening. The Capitol building has been stormed.

@UrbanMysticDee  
Lots of people are going to get SO fired from this security breach, but notice how no one is burning down the building, writing graffiti on the walls, or destroying the statues and paintings inside.

@Humble Oriathan  
It’s not quite mostly peaceful enough for me.

So how many Antifa members are among the capitol stormers? We already know there was talk about both sides cooperating.
