I'm so worried about what'll happen when our kids are old enough to have phones!!!! 😮😮😮
A meme depicting a woman staring at her phone with one hand on her head, with the following text below: IS YOUR CHILD TEXTING ABOUT THE WRECK OF THE EDMUND FITZGERALD? What your Great Lakes maritime history-obsessed teen's text messages actually mean: brb = bell rang bro rofl = rang out for lost (crew) bff = big freakin' freigher lol = Load of Ore on the Lake smh = shift minutes to hours glhf = Great Lakes hella freighter tbh = taconite be haulin' stfu = steer the freighter upwind tfw = that freakin' witch (of November) asl = a ship lost gg = Gitche Gumee idc = immoderate deadweight capacity btw = beneath the waves afk = a freighter kaput hbd = hauler's beacon down ily = iron load yonder jk = just [24] kilometers lmao = lost my abyssal ore nbd = north bound draft glhf = good lord, hold flooding omg = obliteratingly massive gales tmi = too much iron wtf = White Fish (Bay)

It's hard to help Americans left behind because so much of US identity is rooted in individualism. The average American conservative holds all three positions at once:

— Virtue signals about supporting US manufacturing
— Against raising the minimum wage
— Buys foreign imports because they're cheap
HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "I'm willing to pay more for quality products if they are made in America, by Americans, who are paid a decent income." The tweet shows Norman Rockwell's "Freedom of Speech" painting, which is often used to show the tweeter is expressing a brave opinion. HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "MINIMUM WAGE JOBS WERE NOT MEANT TO BE A CAREER. Why does no one understand this? Entry level jobs are STEPPING STONES to better jobs. No one wants to work towards that though." HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "Buy $5 gloves instead of $50 ones. Trust me." The tweet shows a box of "Gorilla Grip" gloves. The label on Gorilla Grip gloves show they're made in China.
