…and into homes, right?
…right?
Just teach them Python and the rest will work itself out.

Maybe a reference to the whole Kamala Harris debacle of telling everyone whose jobs were becoming obsolete to “learn to code”? 🤷
I mean, I’m switching from a soon to be automated job, to specializing in automation…lol
Your former colleagues must be real happy with you lol
You either keep up with the times or get steamrolled by it. As an individual, you’ll never stop the March of time. It’s best to keep improving yourself and learning new things and jumping ship when need be
As a kid, the Olympics was a fun thing to look forward to. Now whenever I see my city/country applying for anything similar, I’m up in arms
It used to be something good back in ancient Greece, before we had the need to make a supershow out of fucking everything and each time trying to one up the last in pyrotechnics and gimmicks
Wasn’t ancient Olympics a supershow of their time?
Sure, but supershows tended to be less wasteful back when there wasn’t so much to waste I guess
It might have been badly worded by me. I know that the Olympics were bad when I was young. I was just naive
I think London 2012 may have been the only Olympics in my lifetime that wasnt some kind of humanitarian travesty.
Even as a kid i didn’t really get it. I liked to watch the best off they showed on tv or when someone broke a world record or something. I thought that’s what the Olympics are. Then one day my friend asked me if i wanted to watch the winter Olympics and i was excited. Just to sit there for hours just watching the most boring thing i have ever seen. And that was before i even knew about the steroid hypocrisy and uow scummy it is
Ah yes, the Olympics season, the time when we can trample human rights the most and hurt our most vulnerable.
The ancient curse proclaiming that the Olympics must suck or the host country will descend into war continues.
Ah yes, the ol’ “Just push them somewhere else” tactic
“Out of sight, out of mind” or something like that
Out of sight, out of mind. Am I right?!
Doesn’t this happen every Olympics?

A miracle!

Hm.
Happened in Vancouver as well
Ah yes, the glorious Olympics tradition continues of host countries proudly jerking themselves off while spending insane amounts of money.
“Look at us while we jerk our selves off. Ignore the fact that we are completely making life harder for marginalized communities to be able to build these one time use stadiums and lodgings that may or may not be used to house people.”

The Louie CK of sports organizations
Yes, Louis CK is the only man in world who jerks off?
The fuck?
I’m really at a loss for what good the Olympics bring to humanity. Really just seems to fuck over thousands of people every 4 years.
Way more than thousands, given the widespread economic effects on the
victimhosting country.Speaking as a Greek, 20 years later there are literally still multiple abandoned world-class sporting facilities, unused, in maximum disrepair. Some like the one outside my town never used even once (Olympics included), after millions of euro spent.
I hope the homeless can use it for shelter at least, though it’s in a pretty inconvenient spot anyway.
I felt like putting millions at first, but thought a bunch of people might try to argue with me, so I thought, no one can deny it fucks over thousands of people at least.
The Olympics are a great way to help build unity and promote friendly competition between otherwise adversarial nations. In theory. In practice it’s an economic dick-measuring contest and a way for authoritarian shitholes to get good PR.
They did this in Vancouver for the 2010 Olympics.
I was living in Vancouver at the time, it was kind of surreal. Now I’m living in one of the northern towns they shipped them to… it’s surreal in a different way.
I’m from Vancouver, and the way the homeless were treated pre Olympics was, if you’ll pardon the language, a goddamn fucking disgrace. Only a bit worse than the rest of the time, to be fair, but it really solidified my dislike of the systems in place there.
That’s the way, really great. Some day we will be judged by our posterity of how we treated the weak and poor .
More manpower for the protests
I wonder where are they going to find a rug big enough to swipe them under.
Finally! They are so unsightly.
Thankfully this sort of thing never come to a boil in France.
