- Comment on What belongs to who when it comes to wealthy families? 1 week ago:
Spitballing here but I suspect a lot of things are owned by a family trust instead of specific people.
- Comment on There are worse tattoos, can I think of one? No... 1 week ago:
Yep. I’m not the type to get tattoos but if I was I could do a whooooole lot worse than visiting the tattoo artist who did this one.
- Comment on There are worse tattoos, can I think of one? No... 1 week ago:
This is a good example of horrible taste but pretty good execution
- Comment on Why don't people complain about Gary Stus? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think Mary Sue or Gary Stu characters are intrinsically bad. Provided that the work is honest about it.
I prefer characters who have realistic strengths and weaknesses, and who face credible tests in the plot, which they aren’t guaranteed to pass. I like characters who fail from time to time.
I do sometimes want some escapism and such, so I’m glad Mary Sue and Gary Stu types still exist.

If Microsoft wants people to use its AI product, they’d be better off making it useful instead of making it more invasive and annoying than pop up and interstitial pause screen ads.
Less money on marketing and VPs, more money on quality developers.

As a former sysadmin I agree with this chart

Still not the most disturbing fanfiction premise i’ve ever seen.

- Comment on There is no greater loss than that which is inflicted in the name of war. 10 months ago:
Is this supposed to be another ‘loss’ cartoon? Damn, fell for it again.
- Comment on We really don't want to talk about our problems 10 months ago:
Reminds me of the plot line in early seasons of Mad Men where Betty would go to a shrink, then later that night Don would call the doc to see what all Betty said.
- Comment on What is your age range for dating? 🤔 😮 11 months ago:
The largest age gap I’ve been involved with was about 4 years. I was 31, she was 35, and we lasted about three months. Current partner and I are about 1.5 years apart.
If I were single and interested in dating, I think the lowest age I’d be willing to go is half my age plus 7. Someone at the absolute lowest end of that range would need to check a lot of other boxes for me to be willing. Most I’d be willing to go over my age is about 10 years.
But frankly, if I were single, I’d probably just stop the online dating thing and live my best life on my own, and if I met someone who was interested cool, and if not it ain’t the end of the world.
- Comment on Time sure flies. I remember pausing my N64 to watch the news coverage. 11 months ago:
I’m guessing entertainers have the same problem pro athletes do: they’re very good at their trade but tend not to have great money management skills.
- Comment on Maybe need a little ivermectin for that. 11 months ago:
OSU? I’m assuming it’s Oregon State. Oklahoma State is too flat for that, and Ohio State is too urbanized for that.

- Comment on Anon calls in for financial advice 1 year ago:
Financial advisor Dave Ramsey Snow
His advice on living within your means usually includes gratuitous torture porn. Yet he always forgets plot armor won’t protect you from financial mistakes.

If he kept his boot bands on then he’s still straight
- Comment on Anon's coworker is a femcel 1 year ago:
it’s a run-of-the-mill stinky person, plain and simple…
Bingo. Some people are just stinky jerks who care nothing for cleanliness or hygiene.

- Comment on When your mom thinks you're gay because you're 14 and haven't been in a relationship [Day 80] 1 year ago:
There was a related movie called The Disaster Artist about The Room, made by one of the Francos. I’ve seen that, but not The Room. Still strikes me as pretty fucking weird though.
