Every time I see something regarding anti vaccinations all I can think of is the Penn and Teller skit where they rip into those types of people.

haha yes

meanwhile all I can think of is the biblical apocalypse where the 6th trumpet sounds and a third of the world gets ded by disease

bye anti-vaxers, I guess XD

(We haven't spoken, at least I don't think we've spoken, but I really enjoy seeing you rp Trixie.)

Oh no doubt. I remember with the Lorax they had like fifty tie ins to things like ihop and I think ford.

Yeah, they had the Lorax advertising a fucking CAR cuz nothing says save the environment like a car

Is presumptuous to think that anyone who defends people who harass other on the internet is someone who is a harasser themselves? Because like for what other reason would someone defend things like anon hate and death threats and the like if they aren’t sending it themselves?

It’s not an unreasonable possibility, but not solid proof

I’m both surprised and at the same time not surprised Illumination still has the license to dr Seuss movies. They continue to just dumb down smart children stories but they get away with it really only because they make more money then they have any right to.

I think it’s purely because they know how to market things like crazy

Now I could be wrong, please correct me if I am, but wasn't the whole point of minimum wage was you got enough money to afford a house, a car, keep your lights on, have water you know all that shit and maybe even have a small amount left over for entertainment? You know, minimum as in a minimum amount where you can comfortably keep a roof over your head? Cause that is just not possible with the current minimum wage amount.

Let’s put it this way: All those fucking asshole old people saying we need to work harder and that we don’t deserve living wage on minimum wage?

in the 60s, when they were kids, a person could work a minimum wage job and be able to support a family of 3 and they would still be above the poverty line.

Think about that. I mean really REALLY think about that.

Really just employers. Because god fucking forbid you rest your feet when you’ve been standing for eight+ hours.

like, most people know that standing for long periods fucking sucks, they aren’t going to hold it against employees unless they’re just sitting around not doing their jobs

as long as they’re doing their job, people wont give a fuck

Let’s not forget last year someone actually traded their car for a packet of the sauce. Why this sauce causes such hysteria is lost to me

Because a popular cartoon character liked it

that’s literally the only reason
