They want to bomb the middle east, but harder.
It’s not even that they’re “the same”, it’s that they have similar approaches, but one is much worse.
Everyone lolmemes about republicans dropping bombs and Democrats dropping bombs with rainbow flags like it’s some deep insight, but all this does is massively benefit the right.
It sews disengagement from the left and people “protest vote”, then the people that do the thing they’re protesting against worse than get into power.
Unfortunately in a two party system, such as the US, it’s better to vote for the less bad one than neither, even if the one you vote for doesn’t do everything you’d like them to

This clears up nothing up haha. He was just acting. So pretended to kill someone? Or he actually killed an African warlord… Which somehow doesn’t count, and acting is a non sequitar

That’s actually a pretty solid tattoo. I mean the craftsmanship is bad, but given it’s a drunk, on your back, tattoo… I was expecting much worse content
- Comment on WATER! 6 days ago:
Everyone has different experiences, but it’s very hit and miss for me. Sometimes it gives some very useful boiler plate, saving me quite a bit of time, sometimes it hallucinates some insane stuff that isn’t related to what I asked or makes functions that don’t return, or call each other.
Like defining a function “getTheThing” then later calling “getSomethingElse” that doesn’t exist. It’s a simple enough error to fix, but sometimes it’s so close to “correct” that debugging it takes quite a lot to find, because it looks right.

I think the problem a lot of people here are having is that they’re assuming the accusation is active sexism. Like it’s a cognitive decision to go “phht, what would she know, she’s a woman”.
I suspect the vast majority of mansplaning scenarios are subconscious. They probably don’t even know that’s what they’re doing abs would never see themselves as being sexist. I think that’s because everyone sees the word “sexist” and associates it with clichéd extreme sexism, like cat calling, not wanting a Female pilot, ignoring their ideas in meetings etc.
The thing about subtle unconscious bias is that you’re almost never aware you’re doing it, but it still has similar effects on the affected group.
The healthy thing to do is to listen to the person it’s affecting, analyse the scenario, and reflect on if it’s something that you, or people you know, might have been doing without realising.

- Comment on From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg 1 week ago:
While his take here is shitty, I think doing drugs and having sex with women for money is not something that warrants out right condemnation imo.
His involvement in murder and assault, and the sexual assault and battery accusations are much more damming and legit reasons to shit on him though.

I don’t know how universal it is, but movie tickets here have at least tripled since I was a kid, 20 odd years ago.
Meanwhile, me and 4 friends pooled our pocket money together to buy a video game that we could barely afford. Brand new video games are the same price now.
I’m not saying “they should increase their price”, but it is wild how somehow they haven’t in decades

I do wonder how much they soft delete stuff, so they can keep the data to sell. Also if they keto a history, do even if you manually delete/edit, do they have a copy on a server somewhere?

- Comment on Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄 2 months ago:
I understand the logic of doing the streak system, keep you engaged by threatening to lose your streak if you don’t do it every day, but it’s a double edged sword.
If I’d lost my streak though… I should just go “oh well” and call it a day/quit.
I deleted the app when they said they were going to fire translators for AI. But I have adhd and forgot, several days, even with reminders, to do it some days… It never ended up mattering because they let me keep my streak anyway

This is one of those things that I feel like someone made up as a joke and it got out of hand.
Now that it exists though, I have no doubt people will have read about it and tried it

This is what pissed me off about it at the time. All the conspiracy subs and all right people kept putting up bill and Hillary Clinton killed epstein posts…
Trump and Barr were in power at the time and have much more egregious evidence of their interactions with epstein

This happened to me a few times but it turned out it was actually the charging cable.
I had crinked the cable enough times trying to charge things at weird angles.

Good newss! If you use a massage gun pressed right to the base of your dick, it vibrates like a vibrator.
