Hm, I wonder how the current prices compare to the 1994 prices, that was the last time USA hosted the FIFA World Cup. There was also the 1996 Olympics.

Has it been renamed to Trumplandia yet?

Those are the most likely to have been rigged by betting clowns, since they drawn so little attention

Coulda been fubooru, but alas, it was not meant to be.

I really wish people would see past the nanometer thick veneer of shiny that FIFA and every big team puts on, hiding their extreme corruption and bad habit coverups.

Football (suck it, USA) has so much money being thrown at it from all sides that it’s no wonder it has some of the worst institutions running the show. Yet a LOT of people will still go out of their way to “support” the team, despite being too fucking poor for said team’s own tastes.

“Look, just because we’re the actual bad guys, doesn’t mean we have to show off how bad we are to the rest of the world!” - That defense minister who was giggling while humiliating the flotilla members

Paying for education that “the market” wants us to have so they can have a larger pool of skilled workers, leading to lower salaries

I think the only time I cat-called women was when I was 10yo while playing football (soccer) in the neighborhood. The girls (~15yo I’d guess) looked back and I went red as a tomato in embarrassment.

Fast forward some years later, when I had long hairs, as I was arriving at school, someone horned at me and cat-called me. I turned around the the pair of idiots saw that I was a dude. They didn’t speed up and I felt that, were I smaller or had a more meek outlook, they would call me gay, sissy, etc, before moving on.

So, it feels like cat calling is a power play against the target.

I do wish people could be honest about what they think, but in a civilized manner. I wish I could just tell a girl or woman I find her pretty without coming off as a creep, weirdo or flirty.

I don’t think a car crash is an apt comparison in this case, that is usually an accident and not something easy to ignore and pretend it didn’t happen - it affects everyone who wants to use the road where the crash happened. Nobody is clapping and cheering.

What this asshole does isn’t an accident, it’s intentional. People follow him expecting bullshit and praising him for that. He’s akin to people who like to drive recklessly and post and brag about it online.

Not possible in the “post header”, so to speak, but you can upload several pics in the post body and any comment

There are a lot of enablers, the viewers that find all that bullshit funny. Guilty by association, I suppose

Video 1 - “I twerked at kim family’s big statue and gave them the finger lol”
Video 2 - “Forced labor camp shenanigans lol”
Video 3, visibly malnourished and beaten - “About to face the death squad, but i’m gangsta lol”

I am amazed whenever a 'murican can even correctly point where Mexico and Canada are in a map. The bar is that low

Not even the first time

Probably a bunch of armageddon preppers or something

Bamboo is also grass, we can eat the shoots/sprouts

I think they’re lowballing the amount

Not every investment is in actually making things better for the invested company, many come with “you must fulfill this contract”, which is how firms like Blackrock destroy existing companies and get off even richer.

Not to mention when the investment is in treasure bonds, which is esentially lending money to a state/country, which can make certain countries spiral into an unending debt whirpool, thus cutting actual investment the population needs

It’s been a roller coaster of bad decisions for probably over 100 years now. Buenos Aires was once called “The Paris of South America”, but that went to shit with the 1929 depression
