Sounds more like a boring dystopia than good news to me. 🤷‍♂️

Orphan crushing machine.

this comm can be so bleak sometimes.

Yeah, this is one of those stories you see on the news that is meant to be a feel good but actually belongs on aboringdystopia.

Yeah that sounds like the dream.... /s

This is really shitty news, what is it doing in "good news"?

This is soul crushing that it even has to happen, let alone that it did happen.

The world has legitimately become a worse place

I could retire on 35k a year.

The fuck some one nearly 20year over pension is still working. Can't be in a civilized country

How many more out there like him? We gonna crowdfund all of them too? Seems like a decent retirement system would be more efficient. Too bad we're fresh out of taxpayer benefits. Plenty of money for harassing and kidnapping civilians though.

America is broken.

Awesome, now do my eighty year-old parents, who've been "borrowing" my car since March 2024 to work for DoorDash.

Wonderful. Now he can live in peace for 2 years. The American dream.

Orphan crushing machine has never eaten this good before

Hope he's not a right-winger (pretty fucking rare for those of that age), or he'll be complicit in being supported by socialism. They'll fry him for that.

I have seen this on the news today and they were fucking cheering ☹️

dystopian

suicide sounds good right about now. I honestly thought I was turning a corner until I read this.
