Point of order, do you use detergent?

Yeah, spiting Grandma from beyond the grave isn’t worth the plumbing bill lol.

Love my spider bros, thanks for keeping the bugs out. 🩵

- Comment on Hard Out There For A Woman 1 week ago:
The thing about the “there’s no way she flew that plane” thing is so annoying is that it’s not even that bold of a claim. They flew her up, she flew for a bit with someone there to take control if something bad happened, then they landed.
- Comment on Get 8 out of every 24 1 week ago:
I think the text should be changed to like
- I only got 4 hours of sleep
- haha I only got 1
To better capture the weird superiority aspect that people have over their suffering in response to other people’s complaints. As written, it reads more like someone making a joke about not getting much sleep and then someone responding (not in a joking way) that they got less.

Is there some benefit Delta V wise to having a lunar or orbiting lunar base perhaps?

Yeah, I mean, we do send robot rovers places. Which I guess is similar in some sense.

I guess I need to brush up on queer history!

“New”?
- Comment on Engineer says Claude Code has made his job "soul-sucking" as workers spend 12-hour days pressing enter 2 weeks ago:
For me it’s the constant pressure to deliver more and with shorter deadlines while still being held accountable when things inevitably go wrong.
- Comment on Why do people refer to characters in movies by their actor's names? 3 weeks ago:
Go the Oceans 13 (12?) route and just be like “You look like Julia Roberts.”
- Comment on ‘We were bored of traditional fantasy cliches’: inside Playground Games’ 10-year effort to revive Fable 3 weeks ago:
Sometimes subverting the cliche becomes the cliche to stop repeating.
- Comment on Why do people refer to characters in movies by their actor's names? 3 weeks ago:
Unless a movie says a character’s name A LOT I will forget it. I’m so so bad with names. But I hear actors’ names all the time. It’s that simple. If I remembered the characters’ names, I’d use them. I suppose also for more obscure movies that I like, I’d probably use the actors’ names if I think other people don’t know the movie.
- Comment on What happened to NFTs and what where they in retro spec? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, but that’s generally a bad thing that the majority of people want to avoid. If someone controls over half of the mining pool then you have bigger issues.

I have stepped out of the tour as well.
- Comment on Blizzard is reviving StarCraft as an open-world shooter, but it'll be a long wait 4 weeks ago:
Mm, so the only thing that can make something original is the playable factions. Noted. Indeed a weird hill to die on.
- Comment on Blizzard is reviving StarCraft as an open-world shooter, but it'll be a long wait 4 weeks ago:
10k? Well that’s pretty original, because I’ve never heard of it.
But on a more serious note, it’s just too reductive to say “there is nothing original in StarCraft because it feels like Warhammer 40k.” All media is inspired by media that came before it. Lion King is similar to Hamlet, does that mean there’s nothing original in it?
- Comment on How did he do that? 4 weeks ago:
Nobody ignored it, we saw it, chuckled, and continued.
- Comment on How did he do that? 4 weeks ago:
People do this shit all the time. In that infamous meme showing Ariana Grande getting darker skinned they did the same thing.
- Comment on Blizzard is reviving StarCraft as an open-world shooter, but it'll be a long wait 4 weeks ago:
It feels pretty reductive to say something doesn’t have original ideas. Pretty much every story has been told in one way or another at this point in history, especially if we get really reductive about it. It doesn’t mean things can’t be interesting or unique.
- Comment on I remember 4 weeks ago:
I’m not saying they didn’t have more air than chips then, I’m saying as a specific Internet meme it felt more like a 2017 thing.
- Comment on I remember 4 weeks ago:
I really like the pic you posted, wonder if I share it, would you mind? I know a couple people online who would like it, please reply.
- Comment on I remember 4 weeks ago:
I don’t specifically remember lays bags being empty a big joke in 2012, but I wouldn’t be surprised. I do remember the rest of these.
- Comment on I'm right and the other vegans are wrong 4 weeks ago:
I’m not began either, but it feels very strange for non-vegans to dictate to vegans what is and is not vegan and who is and is not a vegan.
