- Comment on In the United States; is it illegal to use a single serve wrapped slice of Kraft cheese as a postcard? 1 week ago:
AFAIK you can literally mail anything (except these things) as long as you pay the right postage and address it.
- Comment on What do office workers actually do? 2 weeks ago:
I largely analyze data and create software to automate business tasks. This allows people in my company to make informed decisions about the business, how money is or should be spent, who & where to hire people, etc. And then I present that data in a way they can understand.
This might mean creating forecasts. Automating data analysis with reports. Building data sources (gathering and manipulating data from different places and compiling it). Building interactive software or excel sheets for non-technical users.
I use excel, google sheets, google app script (basically javascript), tableau, python, and SQL.
- Comment on What's a highly-rated, critically acclaimed TV series that you couldn't get into, or have no interest in? 2 weeks ago:
Some of the early episodes really show their age. It’s definitely still worth watching in 2025, but it is an old show at this point.

- Comment on Tesla Stock Price Reaches 'Death Cross' Status 3 weeks ago:
Basically it is a “technical analysis” thing. Which basically means divination based on the “shapes the stonk line make and other line you draw on stonk too”.
Death cross scary shape when stonk line cross other line you draw
- Comment on What TV show were you highly excited for, but ended up quickly disappointing you? 4 weeks ago:
Oh yeah. One of the biggest falls from grace in TV imo.

They have impure silicon there so their software dev practices had to become way more advanced to compensate

Science is proof that 99/100 people who think that if there was a knowledge-based magic system irl, then they’d learn it and be a mage is in denial.
We legit have magic that you just have to learn & then can do all sorts of cool stuff, be it chemistry or computer science, and people pretty routinely do not give a shit about learning it themselves.

Fuckin Thomas Sowell. Unlearning Economics has many hours of content on why that guy is such a blight on economics and the world

Oh that guy? That’s just a normal picture of US vice president JD Vance.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 2 months ago:
I don’t even think the majority of American conservatives are on board with most of what’s happening. Some are, but they’re especially stupid and usually ideologically oriented to Trump rather than to the traditional brand of US conservatism.

I kinda like it. Brutalist console
- Comment on Sun God 2 months ago:
Too autistic for this. Why would it be unsettling? Mercury is much smaller than the sun. If it was suddenly bigger in proportion to the sun, then I’d be unsettled.

- Comment on Anon envies the boomers 2 months ago:
Oh, totally. Just like to bring up that our grandparents/great grandparents were getting nasty even before widespread use of birth control, etc. Young folks today are having a lot less sex, or so I’ve heard, largely due to difficulties finding partners, stress, etc.
- Comment on Anon envies the boomers 2 months ago:
And yet they had more premarital sex than millenials/gen z

- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 2 months ago:
It’s exhausting. And trying to convince someone like that of anything is basically impossible. I have had painstaking, well-reasoned and well-sourced political discussions with many people like that. Funny thing is, I can almost always get the to agree to progressive or socialist policy goals. But, there are all these ideological land mines and, if you trip one, then they fall back into their defensive web of miscellaneous falsehoods and conspiracies.
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 2 months ago:
Validation for their feelings and a return to a mythologized past. Try having a reasoned political discussion with someone like this:
Well back in my day things were just better. America was the best and we didn’t have to apologize for that. And the blacks and mexicans and what not didn’t complain so damn much because folks were wired different back then and there wasn’t nothin to complain about. Chuck Berry. You know Chuck Berry? Greatest rock and roller of all time and he was colored. Didn’t nobody have anything to say about it, he was just damned good at guitar. Now the kids - black kids - listen to all sorts of damnable noise and them from the cities in gangs shooting each other up and corrupting good old white kids in the small towns and suburbs getting them into drugs. And they whine and complain about racism and get the white college kids to whine and complain too, but we had a black president and look how that turned out. Granted he was a muslim and not even a citizen, but try tellin them that. I mean hell look at what Hillary did to all them folks at Benghazi - just let them muslims kill all of em , probably wouldn’t have been politically correct to fight back. And those democrat cities just keep letting illegals stay because they know they’ll vote democrat - they don’t care how many of them are raping and murdering women and kids long as they get their votes. Not even just the mexicans anymore, you got those communists gangs from venezuela taking over whole apartment complexes and the defunded police cann’t do anything about it. You know something was wrong with that Biden election - not just illegals voting but I saw on Fox that they were sending out dozens of mail-in ballots to blacks and college kids and what have you. Maybe Elon’s going to fix it now since he knows all about those voting machines. Liberals voting for dead people too, but that’s been on the news since Bush - I don’t know why nobody does anything about that. And you know what? We knew which bathroom tonuse too - we figured out a genius method. I’ll tell you: drop your drawers and look down. Then you’ll know. And you’ll know if you should be on a mens or womens track team, too. It’s probably because all the kids have autism from the vaccines these days - now I guess they’re mutants because of that COVID mRNA vaccine too - but not me. No sir. I’ll stick with the DNA god gave me. That’s probably why all the boys think they’re girls now. Or cats and try to piss in litterboxes at school. People knew who and what they were once. They knew their place, worked hard, and didn’t complain. Now if we can just get Trump in for a few more terms then he’ll set everything straight and get rid of all those regulations so.I can afford eggs again.
These folks are genuinely operating on an entirely separate set of facts and assumptions to us. They have decades of counterfactual propagandized conspiracy theories, which are too numerous and ingrained to easily disabuse them of.

Surely they mean that they fear they will fall in love with someone only to find out that they’re the infamous hacker known as 4chan
- Comment on ADL defends Nazi salute 3 months ago:
Anti-Defamation League. Basically a zionist organization that goes after anything they percieve as being anti-semitic. Their definition of anti-semitic typically seems to include vocally supporting Palestine & not supporting Israel.
Part of what makes this noteworthy is they call anti-semitism often in dubious cases where it is not present - so them defending Elon sieg heiling multiple times is unusual.
