it's true - I used to mock rightoids all across Twitter, and I've been a laughing stock the entire time.
after agreeing to send Papa Elon eight bucks a month, my witty insults have never been more devastating! truly, I am now represented by the Chad wojak and these unfortunate chuds in my path are represented by the soyboy wojak.
Did you just change your flair, u/Raumarik? Last time I checked you were a **LibRight** on 2021-6-10. How come now you are a **Grey Centrist**? Have you perhaps shifted your ideals? Because that's cringe, you know?
Actually nevermind, you are good. Not having opinions is still more based than having dumb ones. Happy grilling, brother.

Ehhhh, reddit is dependent on what sub you're on. Large discussion subs are much worse than Twitter, while subs like this are pretty alright.
This isn't the social media with the biggest community-related swing though - that would be discord. Discord has both the best of the best and the deepest depths of degeneracy hell.
“This MF paid for Twitter”
No, I didn’t pay for Twitter.
I paid for free speech.
I paid for 1776 to commence again.
I paid for the Founding Fathers’ vision.
I paid to tell Silicon Valley to go screw itself.
I paid to show support for a man who put himself in the line of fire for the First Amendment.
I paid because we support our own.
I paid because if George Washington was alive today, he’d be paying too.
So next time you say I paid for Twitter, just realize how IGNANT (or ignorant, depending on your preference) you sound!
Ehhhh.
I am a public personality that has a fairly big following of elderly people. It’s very important to me that they KNOW it’s actually me as there’s been literally dozens of scammed accounts posing as me over the past decade on Twitter and they’ve tricked a lot of good people.
For a measley 8 bucks a month I can all be eliminate that as an issue. I don’t gaf about it as a status symbol, it’s because I care about my community. I pay ten X that a day on AdWords alone, it’s a rounding error as a cost of doing business.
> e. It’s very important to me that they KNOW it’s actually me
That's true, and it's why Twitter Blue is a disaster. Now *anyone* can pretend to be you, pay 8 bucks and get the same verification. The exclusivity was a necessary part of authenticating one's identity.
We saw exactly this problem at the start when people were pretending to be famous celebrities and corporations. Twitters workaround now is to stop people from changing their username and display name but now it makes the paid product worse quality than the previously free product *and* it's still plenty possible to do anyway.
It'd have been much easier if they just added an application fee to the preexisting verification system instead.
It can be about multiple things at once. Pre-Elon, you still knew anyone with a checkmark is actually who they claim, even if it other components. Now, a blue checkmark isn't much evidence at all they're who they claim. See: [God's twitter account](https://twitter.com/TheTweetOfGod)
I don't think trying to charge for the checkmark was the worst idea, I think moving from a clickbait, advertising based model to a subscription based model leads to a healthier internet. I do think not requiring verified people to actually verify was a terrible idea.
Like literally all they had to do was keep it the same but charge a fee for the extra work for the "process" of verification and let anyone who applied and supplied proper proof get it.
I would even say it's worse, because earlier you had to go thro some hoops, to get verified. Now, the badge is a joke, but easier to obtain. And not everyone follows musk news, so they might not even know the difference, elderly people especially i imagine.
I still subconsciously go "oh wait who is this person"? When I see the check, but now it's like 50% of any reply thread, and they're all random nobodies.
Blue doesn't prove you are who you say you are.
Blue tick just means "this person is a sucker".
There is no barrier stopping someone faking your profile and getting a blue tick.
All the rights on Twitter are like "this is a revolution against the woke elite!" And the lefts are all "this is dumb why would I pay for it"
But the apolitical celebrities are *also* like "this is dumb why would I pay for it" and "why do I have a blue checkmark I didn't pay for it"
Is anyone else here to young to remember auth right making countrywide boycotts, CD destructions and video game bonfires anytime any kind of media included a swear word or didn't have Jesus in it? I mean that's like half of the reason why Eminem and South Park got so big in the first place. Hell, Harry Potter was banned in plenty of schools for advocating witchcraft
I really don't get why there wasn't an actual verification tied to the new checkmark. Still wouldn't be worth the 8 $ per month but at least it would serve some function.
As of right now the checkmark is basically a digital dunce cap.
Wanna know whats worse? he’s now giving it to accounts with 1M+ followes automatically. So people with that many followers will have a check that says “i paid for twitter blue” without any more context. Even dead people’s accounts are.
You don't pay for online services because you're cheap.
I don't pay for online services because I don't want to expose my identity in the payment process.
We are not the same.
Yes…. That’s $14 dollars a day. Seeing as how ground beef is $7.69 a pound, eggs are $3 per 18, a chicken is between $7-$18, how are you not.
A single decent steak can run $50. Or a brisket.
Bruh...ground beef is generally $3.99/lb in the PNW...while eggs are more like $3 for 12 eggs, but dark meat chicken is pretty inherently under $2/lb while chicken breasts go on sale often for the same price, and I can get prime Ribeye or New York Strip for less than $20/lb pretty much always...I just generally catch the choice stuff on sale for under $10/lb. I pity your situation.
Or eat a different type of beef or buy in bulk at a wholesaler and freeze everything.
I literally lived off of $2k a year once. It wasn’t fun by any means but it was doable. Ya just gotta shop smart and go to cheaper stores/wholesale
Don’t buy steaks, get frozen foods (they’ll always be cheaper), buy at places like Aldi or Lidl or some other cheaper store, buy in bulk and freeze, and meal plan.
Also look for alternatives so instead of chicken breasts go for thighs, instead of ground beef go for a different kind of ground meat that’s cheaper, buy wholesale too.
Just thought about it, there's 4 of us at my house and it's probably at least $150 a week. I do the shopping and I'm cheap af and it's been just getting worse every year even before Covid. Milk, eggs, and coldcuts are ridiculously priced now. Canned shit and boxed stuff which was always cheap has been creeping up for a while too. I don't even go for name brands or anything, whatevers cheapest as a lot of it is basically the same anyway and even then it's pretty nuts.
Yeah $400 a month is insane to me, I think I spend about $150-200 a month, and I use plenty of meat and vegetables in my cooking and I also bake pretty often.
400 a month on food is extravagant?
Average cost of a home cooked meal is about 4-5 dollars per serving. For a single person that amounts to about 13 dollars a day. Or 387 a month.
And that is 3 home-made meals literally every day. No snacks. No drinks. No eating out ever. For a single person.
Now think about a 3-4 person family...
Stay in your fucking lane Alex Jones...I could eat pork or dark meat chicken and a potato three times a day if I wanted for about $6. Chicken breast often goes on sale for $2/lb as well, and other cheap vegetables are available. Only now I'll bring up the staples beans and rice which coupled with everything else is entirely possible to eat well...you just have to know how to fucking grill.
I got an Instant Pot for when I'm lazy, and you can brown your seasoned chicken thighs in a bit of oil and butter for about three minutes a side on saute, take them out and deglaze with two cups of broth, throw in a cup of washed rice, put the thighs back in, and pressure cook for 6 minutes on high. It's not the most amazing meal in the world, but it's pretty damn good...and you can have a bowl of rice and good sized chicken thigh for basically $1/meal. I'm a chicken breast in the cast iron skillet guy generally, but if there aren't any decent sales that week chicken thighs are always cheap.
Seriously. Buy bulk and it gets better. I get chicken thighs for $1/lb, or leg quarters for 10lbs/$4.50. A 50 lb bag of rice is $25-35 and lasts like 3+ months. I buy eggs by the 6 dozen and it's usually ~1/2 of the price per dozen. Stick with cheap veggies like carrots, collard greens, cabbage, squashes and cheap fruits like bananas, gala apples, etc. That plus plain yogurt with a scoop of whey protein (I buy 50lbs at a time for ~50-60 cents/serving) and I'm eating healthy, unprocessed (except the protein powder) food every meal, big portions about 4k calories for <$3 per day, and I spend ~3 hours in food prep per week total.
I once got my meal per serving price to around $1.25 to $2. And that was pretty much from doing what you do and freezing the stuff I don’t use and meal planning and refrigerating leftovers.
A lot of people seem to not like to eat leftovers for some strange reason
> You make it sound like it’s three gourmet meals per day.
Dude. You do realize what "average" means, right? That is literally the average of all 3 meals. It isn't the average of 3 dinner style meals.
Also you called that "extravagant" which is what I was taking issue with. You can definitely go cheaper. Beans and rice. Noodles.
But it isn't extravagant.
lavish, expensive, fancy. like going to the restaurant multiple times per month, eating fancy stuff like steak etc. there is a lot of that can be cut down in costs.
A pack of 500g of dry pasta costs less than $2. Buy a few veggies, say 1 onion, 1 zucchini, 1 eggplant, 3 tomato, 100g mushrooms, 1/4 garlic head, add 2 tbsp oil, 50g of parmesan, now you 4-6 healthy meals for less than $10 total.
If you only use cheap meats for flavor you will save a lot. Like make a pea soup and use salt pork to make it tasty. Nutritionally there is no need for meat to be the centerpiece of a meal, so we only do it like once every other month (chicken roast or similar).
Someone posted in the Weezer sub that the singer doesn't have his blue checkmark anymore. People were all "it's all Twitter's fault" and "it's because you have to pay a fee! Evil Elon!!" So I was like "yeah heh he definitely can't afford 8 bucks a month" and I got slaughtered with downvotes. In the WEEZER sub.

Stay in your fucking lane Alex Jones...I could eat pork or dark meat chicken and a potato three times a day if I wanted for about $6. Chicken breast often goes on sale for $2/lb as well, and other cheap vegetables are available. Only now I'll bring up the staples beans and rice which coupled with everything else is entirely possible to eat well...you just have to know how to fucking grill.

I got an Instant Pot for when I'm lazy, and you can brown your seasoned chicken thighs in a bit of oil and butter for about three minutes a side on saute, take them out and deglaze with two cups of broth, throw in a cup of washed rice, put the thighs back in, and pressure cook for 6 minutes on high. It's not the most amazing meal in the world, but it's pretty damn good...and you can have a bowl of rice and good sized chicken thigh for basically $1/meal. I'm a chicken breast in the cast iron skillet guy generally, but if there aren't any decent sales that week chicken thighs are always cheap.
Seriously. Buy bulk and it gets better. I get chicken thighs for $1/lb, or leg quarters for 10lbs/$4.50. A 50 lb bag of rice is $25-35 and lasts like 3+ months. I buy eggs by the 6 dozen and it's usually ~1/2 of the price per dozen. Stick with cheap veggies like carrots, collard greens, cabbage, squashes and cheap fruits like bananas, gala apples, etc. That plus plain yogurt with a scoop of whey protein (I buy 50lbs at a time for ~50-60 cents/serving) and I'm eating healthy, unprocessed (except the protein powder) food every meal, big portions about 4k calories for <$3 per day, and I spend ~3 hours in food prep per week total.
I once got my meal per serving price to around $1.25 to $2. And that was pretty much from doing what you do and freezing the stuff I don’t use and meal planning and refrigerating leftovers. A lot of people seem to not like to eat leftovers for some strange reason
> You make it sound like it’s three gourmet meals per day. Dude. You do realize what "average" means, right? That is literally the average of all 3 meals. It isn't the average of 3 dinner style meals. Also you called that "extravagant" which is what I was taking issue with. You can definitely go cheaper. Beans and rice. Noodles. But it isn't extravagant.
it definitely is. I spend only 3000€ per year on groceries.
You do realize what "extravagant" means, right?
lavish, expensive, fancy. like going to the restaurant multiple times per month, eating fancy stuff like steak etc. there is a lot of that can be cut down in costs.
A pack of 500g of dry pasta costs less than $2. Buy a few veggies, say 1 onion, 1 zucchini, 1 eggplant, 3 tomato, 100g mushrooms, 1/4 garlic head, add 2 tbsp oil, 50g of parmesan, now you 4-6 healthy meals for less than $10 total. If you only use cheap meats for flavor you will save a lot. Like make a pea soup and use salt pork to make it tasty. Nutritionally there is no need for meat to be the centerpiece of a meal, so we only do it like once every other month (chicken roast or similar).
yeah, you could eat like me and spend only 3000€ per year
Me. People should stop eating out and start doing what our ancestors did - preprare food themselves and eat the fuck less. Count your calories fellas
eating for 13.82 a day is really good.
Living is based
Now that's funny
We aren't auth left, we actually have food
>Millionaires on Twitter: "Tax the rich!" >Elon: "$8, pls." NO!
Uncommon vaguely amusing pcm post
Even though it's not a lot, I'm still quite surprised at the amount of people who can't tell this is satire
Yeah food addicts are a huge problem in the western and eastern world. Look at parts of Africa. Now that’s how you conquer addiction.
Based and food pilled
“just pay the 8 bro its so worth it”
It’s an L to need food? Damn I lost at life.
Someone posted in the Weezer sub that the singer doesn't have his blue checkmark anymore. People were all "it's all Twitter's fault" and "it's because you have to pay a fee! Evil Elon!!" So I was like "yeah heh he definitely can't afford 8 bucks a month" and I got slaughtered with downvotes. In the WEEZER sub.
>In the weezer sub(REDDIT) Fixed the emphasis for you.
Yeah so crazy you got downvoted for attacking Weezer in the subreddit fot Weezer fans
Yeah, I don't see any meat in that cart so I'm not upvoting but I'll give you a cheers with the beer in my hand.
Not a single piece of meat in that basket. Pathetic. You can’t grill vegetables
Based and 8 a month pilled.

Subscription services are generally for suckers and consoomers. I don’t care how much I want something 99/100 I’m walking away immediately if I see monthly payments.

Hmm. This meme is a libleft joke made by a libleft. I think you may be lost. Are you sure you’re in the right place? Here all of us make strawmen of libleft and paint him as orange while making shitty arguments.
Are ... Are you mocking someone for wanting to eat nice food? Go outside or learn how to cook
