  The only thing worse than a roach is bedbugs. Fuck those things for existing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are we so afraid of cockroaches?⁩ ⁨⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like you’ve never had to deal with a roach infestation. The worst I ever encountered, in the basement of a slumlord shed following a big flood, looked like the subway scene from Cloverfield

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia CEO: Society has no choice but to change. I used to play in the streets. When cars came along, you obviously can’t play in the streets now⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fucking vampires

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Injuries from not having an airbag will be far worse than any injury from wearing eyeglasses

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does most of the US blame Saudi Arabia for the 9/11 attacks? Al-Qaeda may have been trained there but that doesn't makes Saudi's responsible does it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  MAGAts do, everyone else blames Bush lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think happens if I stop using AI for a month?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You might hopefully return to reality

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do "fixers" like Winston Wolfe in Pulp Fiction actually exist in real life? How does one go about getting one or hearing about one? Are they all mob connected or something?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If only, they’ve been compromised by Trump to become his personal intimidation force

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there music I haven't heard because I only speak English?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Uhh yes, yes you are. Loads. Just to give one example, le monde francophone has yaya pop (Juniore is one of my favorites)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come people don't compliment other people on great word usage? If someone use the word lets say ecclesiastical or something like that they do not get complimented it shows they respect English.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re often used incorrectly as direct synonyms too, with no nuance as to the subtle differences between them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In Hollywood why do all actors and such have fake names besides their own? How do they come up with them? If I went to hollywood could i make up something like Don Dickle Pickle Wiggler?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a performance artist, far from Hollywood, and I have an alias. It’s called a stage name. It helps to keep my private and public lives separate, and it’s cooler than my legal name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There are basically 4 types of files : text, image, audio and audio visual, right ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The two types are text (encoded) and data (bytes)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In today's term what is the middle class in the US? If the government wanted to help the middle class and poor how would they go about it? Beside the toss money at the problem solution?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wtf do you think taxes are supposed to pay for?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think all billionaires deserve to die?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be willing to compromise by throwing them in jail and redistributing their wealth among the masses, but one way or the other billionaires should not exist

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have light sensitivity, the new lights cause physical pain. I completely stopped driving at night because of them and sometimes have to wear sunglasses at night as a passenger. They’re hell

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In addition to everything else people have mentioned here, because it got co-opted by fascists and is now being used for mass surveillance and to terrorize minorities

  Also it’s killing the environment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amount of paper I used in one school year⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s honestly less than I’ve gone through for some art projects. At least it’s recyclable

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That is unintentionally how ADHD brains work. It results in executive dysfunction

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What does everyone think of the economic outlook for the next year?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think the “economy” has ever actually picked up in my lifetime. At least not for the working class, I don’t give two fucks if something happens to billionaires.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it just me or does it seem Google is either AI filled or becoming obsolete? Is there an up and comer that can be what Google used to be? Or are we stuck oogling stuff forever?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using Kagi as well to good success

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do people with ADD and ADHD watch movies or shows???⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Your understanding of ADHD is very poor. That said, I generally don’t. I have to watch a show/movie multiple times to actually get it, and it has to be one that I actually care about

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If AI is so smart, how come it doesn't track the time and date?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  AI is the very definition of “fake it til you make it”. There’s no actual intelligence there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s how electromagnetism works. Electrical current consists of electrons flowing “in reverse”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's with black superheroes and lightning powers?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The first example given is literally called Black Lightning?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When I retire I can I get a decent home for about 200k in canada with about an acre to live on that is out in the boondocks, and grow some weed and vegetables? Other questions inside.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re serious about this you should visit for yourself, ideally in the middle of winter. You definitely won’t want to keep your windows open in the middle of winter. Yes it’s cold. This winter was particularly long for some reason, Toronto is only just getting out of winter and towns further north still have ice.

  Yep she’s the prime example of one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New York lawmakers endorse Governor's plan to reduce car insurance premiums by making it harder for crash victims to seek compensation⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hochul is a conservative in centrist clothes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I pretend to care about the lives in Gaza and Palestine?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Seek a therapist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do stunt people fall down stairs without hurting themselves?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a stunt person but I do a lot of dangerous stuff as a circus performer. Same for us, we’re always healing random shit. A lot of the time we end up injured when things go right, we just control the level of injury lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the US got to the point of rewriting or coming up with a new constitution, which minds would be the equivalent of the minds today? To rewrite the whole thing?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  PhD level Historians

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the difference between communism and socialism?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A socialist society lacks private ownership of the means of production (the things that make society functional). You can still start a business and make money, but wealth goes back to the workers rather than being hoarded by a single private entity at the top.

  A communist society is much stricter, lacking private property and social classes. The state owns everything and allocates it based on need
