VikingHippie,

Literally came

🤨

VikingHippie,

Me too! It’s one of my favorite hobbies 😁

VikingHippie,

It has MANY potential meanings!

Favorite Elders Arrived Recently

Further, Esteemed Animal Rescuer!

Fun! Esperanto Amidst Raccoons!

If you think THIS is distasteful, you should see what priests do…

VikingHippie,

They’ll hate me because I speak the truth

No, we’ll mock you for speaking nonsense.

Btw, did you mean millenials or Gen Z? Some of us elder millenials are 40 or older now, a fact that Gen X and Boomers sometimes have trouble remembering…

My name would be Søen, which is Danish for “The Lake” 😄

VikingHippie,

Hoey Badger gives a shit.

VikingHippie,

Confirmed: back in my theater days my preparation for roles was identical to that of Christian Bale.

VikingHippie,

Anti-social Rent-seeking Behavior For Dummies

VikingHippie,

Rent seeking in the economic sense does not ONLY mean purchasing property in order to rent it out to tenants.

Fixed it for you. Landlording is one of many forms of “growing one’s existing wealth without creating new wealth”

VikingHippie,

Much better than the sequel, The Apricots of Annoyance.

The porn Adaptation, Plums of Pleasure, is a banger though, pun intended.

VikingHippie,

shoots cockgun

ALL costs!

I sit corrected, then. Should have known better than to think Social Democrats as useless as liberals in fighting fascists tbh, given what we’re seeing today…

VikingHippie,

Where’s the lie?

VikingHippie,

Hence the inclusion of the word "if ".

VikingHippie,

They’re right, though.

The Italian Liberals of the 20s adopted a “wait and see” approach, leaving the outnumbered socialists, anarchists and communists to fight both the fascists and the loyalists alone. Then when it was clear that the fascists were winning, the Liberals joined them.

I suspect that the 30s Social Democrats of Germany were similarly irresolute (though didn’t join before they were forced to) when dealing with the Nazi threat. Centrists tend to be, whether center-right like the Italian Liberals or center-left like the German Social Democrats.

VikingHippie,

Is that just a hi-hat being played with these? https://lemmy.wtf/pictrs/image/8776b22f-0d4f-4f80-9ad7-395e8622ddd0.jpeg

VikingHippie,

Keepass

For those who want to keep their ass.

VikingHippie,

Why do you want to know? Do you think Chavez singlehandedly controlled the price of oil?

You know that’s a worldwide commodity, the price of which is affected by myriad factors out of any one country’s control, right?

There’s no such thing as “price of Venezuelan crude oil” seperate from the price of all other crude oil.

VikingHippie,

Venezuela is an example of a petrostate, where the government is highly dependent on fossil fuel income.

Petrostates are vulnerable to what economists call Dutch disease, in which a government develops an unhealthy dependence on natural resource exports to the detriment of other sectors.

The oil price plunge from more than $100 per barrel in 2014 to under $30 per barrel in early 2016 sent Venezuela into an economic and political spiral, and despite rising prices since then, conditions remain bleak.

So yeah, socialism didn’t kill the Venezuelan economy, over-reliance on fossil fuel did.

VikingHippie,

But enough about what I did with your mom last night…

VikingHippie,

Me when I pet a dog and my watch thinks I’m going for a run 😄
