On Saturday, I took a road trip up to my “local” hardwood dealer. “local” here meaning it’s in the same state I live in; it’s on the opposite edge but same flag under the stars and stripes. On the way back, I noticed a distinctive haze through the trees, not as thick as mist and slightly blue. Wood smoke. A LOT of wood smoke, with no apparent source for the amount I saw. Couldn’t see any farmers burning trash near the road, the local army base hadn’t said anything about clearing brush.
Come to find out from the local funny pages it was a barn and house fire. Some old couple out in “horse country” as those of us who are actually from here call it apparently had their barn burn down and the fire damaged the home to the point of irreparability.
And all I could think was…good. Glad to hear it. More scumfuck retirees who got what they had spending other people’s futures need to watch their futures burn to the ground. I’m happy they’ve been rendered homeless. I have no FUCKING idea who it is, but they own at least two horses so there’s no way under the sun they aren’t the kind of shitcum that bitches out retail workers for saying “no problem” instead of “you’re welcome.”
I want to see more old people lose their futures. I’m tired of seeing young people lose their futures, let’s do old people for awhile.
Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where’s the Tylenol?
Wow.

You’ll be old one day
No I won’t. Not if my shotgun has anything to say about it, and my shotgun only knows one really loud word.
Not every retired person stole money. Some were teachers, librarians, community atctivists.
Wow. Just wow. You’ll be old someday, and I hope there is no one cheering and clapping if your house burns.
Teachers, librarians and community activists aren’t paid enough to retire to recreational horse ranches. And I very deliberately will not be old someday.
Honest question, what’s it like to be so filled with anger and hate all the time? You have a decent job. Sounds like you like it. So why the hate? I know it’s a rant comm, so you don’t have to answer…but can’t you just go outside with your girlfriend/boyfriend and enjoy the day a little? Think about it…you legit talked about how great you feel that someone became homeless. What’s that kind of anger like?
How’d you feel about Charlie Kirk getting shot? I laughed myself lightheaded.
An old retired couple who lost their house can’t be compared to Charlie Kirk. What’s it like be so angry and hateful all the time? Have you always been this way, or just during adulthood. What was your childhood like? The fact that you laugh yourself “lightheaded” about someone being murdered isn’t something to brag about. When was the last time you saw a therapist?
Look, do you want me to fight a class war, or not? Rich people got hurt. Yay.
No, I don’t think you should be obsessed with fighting and hate. You are a pretty smart guy, with a decent job. You could have a decent life if you wanted, but you come to lemmy filled with anger, hate, and talking about shotgunning yourself so you don’t get old.
So are you this unhappy in real life, or is this just your “angry guy online” persona?
So first of all, I am going to blow my head off with a shotgun rather than die of old age.
I’ve watched generations of my ancestors die of old age. I haven’t once mourned at the funeral of an old person; the mourning was always complete months if not years prior when the person they were, the person I knew, actually died, while their empty demented corpse rotted in motion. It doesn’t only destroy them, it destroys another. Somebody ends up saddled with the almost round the clock job of tending to them. I’ll not suffer that fate nor damn another to it.
Second, where the fuck do you get off telling me I live in a place and time where a decent life can be lived, you smarmy cunt for fuck? Get the fuck away from me, traitor.
