I see you haven't experienced the "fresh" produce my local grocery is offering.

It has a fair share of copypasta, and I am curious what would make copypasta a meme, but not a twitter screenshot.

That doesn't match up with what KnowYourMeme.com says

Memes are broadly defined as culturally transmitted information or ideas and beliefs that can be spread from one organism, or group of organisms, to another.

He's getting it mixed up with Wisconsin, which does raw ground beef on a bun.

Ugh, my banking app doesn't work on my phone any more because it's "old". It came out in 2017.

Honestly, 'patriarchy' is a terrible term that leads to so much confusion. Too many people use it as 'blame men' and forget that it's supposed to be about men being culturally cast as perfect leaders and therefore punished for not meeting those impossible standards.

I have high hopes that the spreading acceptance of transfolk will start to break down the weird gender roles we've got, and maybe we can talk about some of this stuff more directly.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Business Insider is on the side of the corps here.

American culture is changing. It used to be that family bonds were the tightest, and we had generational housing, but that started going away during the great depression when a lot of family farms shut down and people lost the house they'd been in for generations. We also don't like to talk about the amount of generational trauma that came from both the world wars, and that was another nail in the coffin of family life. The most recent blow has been the economy, where both parents need to work and don't have the time to build the bonds with their children that are needed for a tight-knit family unit.

The title literally says it's a secret. If he's not the only one saying it, then it's not a secret, and the title is dishonest.

It's one of those things you kinda had to be there for. Japan used to be practically synonymous with new tech, and now it's just been baked into the aesthetic of the genre.

Rosemary is also a decent option if you want something that looks more like a christmas tree, but tabletop size
