- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 3 days ago:
A quick scan reveals I’ve never committed a vehicular homicide, and do not engage in activities that are statistically likely to improve the odds that I will commit a vehicular homicide. I’m fine with with jailing someone who’d risk everyone around them with death and dismemberment for their entertainment.
There is no such thing as an “instinct to drive dangerously”, it’s called “a choice”.
Annnnnd fuck that choice.
- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 3 days ago:
Bad AND selfish. In generous quantities.
- Comment on If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.? 3 days ago:
“Yes, an electronic brain,” said Frankie, “a simple one would suffice.”
“A simple one!” wailed Arthur.
“Yeah,” said Zaphod with a sudden evil grin, “you’d just have to program it to say What? and I don’t understand and Where’s the tea? Who’d know the difference?”
- Comment on Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics' 1 week ago:
For sure. It was great. I’ve played every entry in the series and those 2 are the memorable ones.
Invisible war was awful but the hellfire boltcaster was immensely fun to use on the Templars lol.
- Comment on (Rant) Don't buy Rockstar games. 5 weeks ago:
Step one: put this on your tinder profile:
I have been permanently locked out and actually impossible to play any Rockstar Social - walled game on Steam.
Step two: reel’em in. You’re free now!
- Comment on Help. 1 month ago:
Yeah but as a husband, we have waste heat to manage, plus just normal waste.
- Comment on Anon goes home 1 month ago:
The best is when you are lying in bed at night and some odd mix of neurotransmitters unlocks a memory you haven’t thought of in years, and then you spend an hour crying about the gulf of time between then and now, for what/who you’ve lost, and managing the crushing guilt that follows when you feel awful about not tending to the garden of your memories better.

That’s just the “B” arc. Ah. But I forget about the mutant star goat.
- Comment on Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future 2 months ago:
Is that because of the free surgery he’s going to give everyone who wears his obnoxious AI glasses and then subsequently gets punched in the face? Is that why we’re going to be at a disadvantage, Mark?

“You wouldn’t imagine downloading a car, would you?”
Well? Would you?!
…?
ANSWER ME!!
- Comment on What can US citizens do to fight/prevent their country enabling genocide? 4 months ago:
Learn basic electronics and how to solder to weaponize commercial drones.
- Comment on skynet would be better than these clowns 4 months ago:
Lol @ everyone imagining that they (baselines) would be able to discern the motives and actions of a superintelligent anything.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 5 months ago:
Oh man. For me, Tetris. Every time.
I get past the first dungeon no problems, and find the heart container, but as soon as I meet that old guy with his kite in the tree I’m lost. I think I need to craft a slingshot or something but I’ve no idea where to get the rubber for an elastic band.
- Comment on Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads 5 months ago:
So should subtractions!
- Comment on Depart, men of education. 6 months ago:
And then, for the coup de grace, immediately deny that there even is or was ever such a social network, and insist it was another one of their “wacky dreams”. And then later, they come to you to prove you wrong.
Boom. Incepted.
- Comment on Win win 6 months ago:
As an owner of both, my 2020 Ioniq BEV easily feels better than my previous civic, and my Subaru (though I’d want the suby for anything challenging terrain-related). Best car I’ve owned.
- Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan 6 months ago:
I wonder why anyone would want an “AI girlfriend” or whatever ridiculous thing tech bros are trying to shoehorn monetization into to capitalize on the pervasive disconnect in society today.
And then, when I read a post like yours, referring to someone like that, it all suddenly makes sense. Given the choice, I’d also rather spend time with unthinking silicon than an asshole who talks to people like you do.
- Comment on Musk shares post that Hitler didn’t kill millions, public workers did. Union rages 6 months ago:
Jesus fuck already. Why can’t this fuck hole skip to the bullet-temple, doused-in-accelerant, ignited-in-a-ditch phase of his life. He’s so fucking thirsty for it.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 6 months ago:
If you seriously think that this isn’t market manipulation then I’ve some lovely bridges you may be interested in acquiring for a low price!
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 7 months ago:
You’re 100% correct. My unscientific polling suggests to me that 8/10 Canadians thought Elon was a force for good about a year ago.
We also had a cadre of MAGA north sticking flags on their cars, honking nonstop, shitting in the streets, and blocking the capital and the border when we had COVID restrictions in place. Today, zero percent of them would have a problem being the 51st state, for all their bleating about it being about them protecting “my freedoms” for me. I’m proud to see our flag being displayed this time though, because I’m not dubious about the motivation, but this is no time to stop being vigilant about what little democracy we have left.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 7 months ago:
We’re kin. Fall of civ is my dystopian lullaby. I can hear that piano refrain, but it’s about us now.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 7 months ago:
We lose the goodwill
Gone. It’s gone. I’m your neighbor. There’s no more goodwill. It’s been completely replaced with desire to see your hubris teach a collective lesson, and a process of internal reflection on how we can not end up like you.
- Comment on George Carlin spent nearly his entire life trying to warn us of what is happening 7 months ago:
So did Frank Zappa, so did Christopher Hitchens, so did many many others. Did we listen or did we compile the best of their material into top-10 moment videos on YouTube?

- Comment on Anon cheats through college 7 months ago:
Perfectly articulated.
- Comment on What are your favorite games for killing nazis? 8 months ago:
Bionic Commando. Love love love to shoot Hitler in his doughy, laughable master race face with a rocket launcher through the window of a fucking helicopter as I fall past it.
- Comment on Is anyone planning on doing anything about trump creating a concentration camp at guantanamo bay? 8 months ago:
As a Canadian, it really really sucks that we have to hurt our friends to help them, or you’ll hurt us all worse. It really sucks that you, personally, had to say those things too, but it’s also brave, and makes me hopeful that we can get through this.
