Bottom right pic hits hard. I plan to die in some fashion long before that. Fuck planning or saving for retirement if it doesn't matter.

In other news, Denmark raised their retirement age to 70 recently, and our conservatives in the US have been squawking about the same. LOL.

What the fuck is the point of this shit existence for anyone who can't become rich as a celebrity or wall street psycho? 90% of us are just here so the wealthy can have yachts, Lamborghinis, and mansions.

This place sucks.

The right wing party in Australia (a few elections ago) increased retirement age but with a "rolling date". Meaning they all get to retire on time with the earlier date but the later you were born the later your retirement age. They literally set their retirement age in stone then fucked younger generations on their way out. It's still currently rolling out, recently increased to 67 in 2023.

(In more ways than one bit this one is particularly obvious and idk how they got away with it).

This is the kind of socialist hellscape the capitalist is protecting us from.

Edit: Dense mixed used urban development, biking to work, walking to your nearest weekly market, buying unprocessed food for groceries and common public area easily accessible by foot for old people where they can mix with other generations.

Hmm but what if I want to make thousands of people work for me without giving any excess value created by their labour to anyone else?

Actually, this is what you're fighting for in Capitalism:

Not for yourself, though, rather for a few who add up to less than 0.0000375% of Humanity.

Weren't they going to build a 5-mile wide boat that looked like a turtle. Where's that, I'm fighting for that.

It’s so odd how much hate pop figures get, from people whose apartments are filled with anime posters and figures

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (2 children)

In general, I think it comes down to the fact that they all just look low effort. They’re formulaic, which to someone who puts out passionate art, it’s kind of just insulting.

And as much as I hate to say it, that’s all preference. I don’t personally think they’re “wrong” or “not art”. Just not very well done or original.

well and they'll all end up in landfill eventually.

"You don't like this thing, yet you do like this other, different thing that falls into a vaguely same broad category. Curious."

I'm not into anime but I definitely think Funko pops are hideous and not cute at all

EDIT: Oh dang, people don't like to fight for this either :(

In Yugoslavia it was actually quite the opposite. Old commie blocks in Serbia all have big green spaces around them and playgrounds, while new buildings are all built on top of each other with no room to breathe and no greenery in sight.
