- Comment on If the US Military can offer free money for college education..and is part of the government then why does the average Joe have to pay back a small student loan? 11 hours ago:
That wasn’t the question.
- Comment on If the US Military can offer free money for college education..and is part of the government then why does the average Joe have to pay back a small student loan? 15 hours ago:
Does average Joe work for the government and get the benefit of a college grant due to their employment? If not, there’s your answer. It’s why if you work in public service like education and nursing there are programs to have student debt forgiven as you are essentially performing a vital service for the government.
- Comment on VP Vance Says Watergate Would Now Be 12-Hour News Story and Crazy It Took Down Nixon's Presidency 3 weeks ago:
We only need a portion of them, and a lot of the easiest ones to get enjoy crass jokes and already don’t like JD so… Cater to the audience
- Comment on VP Vance Says Watergate Would Now Be 12-Hour News Story and Crazy It Took Down Nixon's Presidency 3 weeks ago:
According to you. While you’re welcome to your opinion on it, I do not have to agree. Especially when you have no evidence to support your assertion that we must only respond in X fashion to Y event or risk diluting the “true argument”.
I counter with: only serious and doomer talk risks alienating and wearing down the people you need to help out.
- Comment on VP Vance Says Watergate Would Now Be 12-Hour News Story and Crazy It Took Down Nixon's Presidency 3 weeks ago:
Sure, which issue were you wanting to talk about that you instead felt the need to lambast me for some humor?
- Comment on VP Vance Says Watergate Would Now Be 12-Hour News Story and Crazy It Took Down Nixon's Presidency 3 weeks ago:
I think you mean soft on crime, hard-on for couches

Also ask how many flat earthers there are at NASA. We must cater to the close minded to prove our point of diversity!
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
We do this with crawfish in a lot of parts of the world, and that works a lot better since they’ll also eat the decomposing plant matter that falls off the rice to keep the water cleaner and plants healthier.
- Comment on Why are flat earthers so badly harassed and ridiculed by globers? 4 months ago:
Well, you deleted the last post because it had too many comments saying the flat earth myth is stupid and easily debunkable and reposted here?
Get bent troll
- Comment on Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face 5 months ago:
I’ll swap to a shared calendar and any other voice chat software. Sure I can’t post on those but that’s why we also have a group chat for the different gaming groups I’m in.
- Comment on Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face 5 months ago:
Well, looks like I’m leaving discord.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
Me too, but I think we get more stories from the captains instead of the crew unfortunately
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
It might be because there are a lot more (visible) records of random white dudes being places they had no business being in the pursuit of colonialism.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 8 months ago:
They did say fish and chips which is kind of an iconic British food.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 8 months ago:
Right? I’ve never had more than an extra 20lbs to lose so I guess I know nothing about weight management.
- Comment on Grok got a Nazi patch 1 year ago:
Expanded by even bigger “tools” you might say.
Also a reason I hate these llms.
- Comment on Grok got a Nazi patch 1 year ago:
It’s not self aware or capable of morality, so if you tailor a question just right it won’t include the morality around it or corrections about the points. Pretty sure we saw a similar thing when people asked it specifically tailored questions on how to commit certain crimes “as a thought experiment” or how to create certain weapons/banned substances “for a fictional story”
- Comment on If corporations are the GOP and the GOP are corporations why isn't it assumed that corporations will stem inflation due to tarrifs while the GOP is in power even if its at loss? 1 year ago:
Oh me too, they just seem to have very few long term planning leaders these days.
- Comment on If corporations are the GOP and the GOP are corporations why isn't it assumed that corporations will stem inflation due to tarrifs while the GOP is in power even if its at loss? 1 year ago:
True, but remember they will just blame it on the previous administration until it’s forgotten.
- Comment on If corporations are the GOP and the GOP are corporations why isn't it assumed that corporations will stem inflation due to tarrifs while the GOP is in power even if its at loss? 1 year ago:
Why would they do that when they could use the time-honored GOP strategy of blaming it on democrat leadership and immigrants?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I like any sort of rpg that requires you to understand the text so you know what you need doing. Diablo 2 was my way to learning another language, but it’s fairly old now. Maybe something along those lines or that has a good crafting system? I would suggest stuff like Grounded, some of the Elder Scrolls (oblivion just got a remake so that might be nice), project zomboid, etc.
- Comment on Anon considers LASIK 1 year ago:
That could work, if you have the extra money for a second pair. I used to have my old pair as backups but even still if anything happened to my new pair I would need a replacement that cost at least $400.
- Comment on Anon considers LASIK 1 year ago:
That’s what it was like for me, but it only took like 2 minutes so… I’ve had worse. Going on ten years with dope vision.
- Comment on Teachers Are Not OK 1 year ago:
I was moving to digital assignments because it makes more sense both from a “make up missing work” and a “this is an environmental themed class, maybe don’t waste so much paper”, but the amount of gpt and ai bullshit I get is prompting me to go back to paper only and phones locked away. Which sucks because I can’t teach internet research skills as much and grading takes a shit ton longer.
- Comment on Liquid Trees 1 year ago:
Even with the misleading headline, has nobody commenting about how bad it is ever seen how many trees die when set up in low light conditions? These can be used in places trees wouldn’t be effective, and that’s before the whole “they’re better at cleaning the air” bit.
- Comment on Liquid Trees 1 year ago:
Also really really hard to keep trees alive on the sides of buildings where these units could conceivably be used. Modular trees plus trees where we can fit them.
- Comment on If the USA and China goes to war, how likely will Chinese-Americans end up in "internment camps" like what happened to Japanese-Americans during WW2? 1 year ago:
Depends on how hard it is to set the camps on fire and how much they’re hidden from the local population. In a better timeliness.
In this timeline, it would probably occur in a number of the states but I do like to hope some would resist.
- Comment on Anon's friend is Buddhist 1 year ago:
Yes, but not as many people go to abandoned buildings so you’re less likely to be seen by others and reported.
- Comment on Anon's friend is Buddhist 1 year ago:
Transportation to and from the forest isn’t free.
Also some places have laws against camping on public land to discourage homelessness and these would likely fall afoul of those.
- Comment on why are they called “popular girls” if they’re typically not friends with anyone outside their small friend group? 1 year ago:
It’s not because they have friends but because it is perceived that most people want to be their friend, thus popular (usually a middle school/high school trope where bullying ran rampant as a way for kids to develop their own ego boundaries). If they were just shitty and people didn’t want to know them, it wouldn’t be popular
