It’s complicated, he actually is (or was at least) a fairly skilled martial artist in the very specific style of Aikido. But as you correctly say, Aikidos effectiveness in the real world or in mixed-style fights is up for debate. His massive ego really doesn’t do him any favors.

Great movie, great casting, very funny.
- Comment on President Trump reacts to President Biden’s cancer diagnosis: "I don't feel sorry for him" 1 week ago:
I see lots of non-Americans telling Americans to “do something!” every single day here in the fediverse.
Americans might have “vile and violent fantasies” but they’re far from the only ones and I’d wager if you talked to a neighbor or two you might find some of them have similar fantasies.

Their Brewtal Juice Smoothie Sour looks delicious and I’d pay $11 for it at least once. I’ve had some good beer but never anything that looked like that.
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 2 weeks ago:
$11 pints they better be superb mate.
As a beer enjoyer, i’m definitely interested but it doesn’t look like I can get their stuff in my area.

Have you seen the trash currently being turned out? What could it hurt? Tell someone elses story, maybe it’ll be entertaining.

I keep everything groomed but never really shave anything smooth.
I’ve tried it and it feels nice for a second but the itching/scratching as it grows back just isn’t worth it.
But I keep basically my entire body “groomed” to some extent, I just use some electric clippers and a short guards. You want it long enough to not be scratchy or itchy, but short enough to not be a tangled mess.
I’m a hairy adult btw.
- Comment on Two ICE agents in plain clothes punched and tried to handcuff an Australian man at Las Vegas Airport. When they saw they were being filmed, they quickly left. 4 weeks ago:
I think it’s two women, maybe one is rocking a fake mustache to try to appear male at first glance.
These two barely read as ICE to me much less any other LEO, they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel at this point.

- Comment on What is it like being drunk? How much control do you have? 1 month ago:
Anyway, it’s a lot of fun until it isn’t.
This sums it up pretty well.
Someone once told me “getting drunk is fun, being drunk isn’t.” and it rings pretty true.

Slight correction, I believe the NYTimes printed Industrial Society and Its Future because Kaczynski told them he’d stop mailing bombs if they did. The FBI and Janet Reno (AG at the time) both pushed for it and its publication directly led to his brother recognizing the writing as Ted’s and his subsequent capture.

Yeah there’s nothing indicating he’s not just a complete moron who thinks magnets don’t work under water.
- Comment on U.S. Forest Service to Open Millions of Acres to Off-Road Vehicles, Memo Shows 2 months ago:
Slightly related, I frequently visit a large “Wilderness area” near where I live. It’s thousands of acres and I’ve been visiting my whole life, camping, hiking, hunting. In the last 5-10 years as more and more people get UTVs or “side by sides” it’s becoming more accessible to people who previously would’ve had to walk in or have a 4x4.
The damage they’re doing is extremely visible. There’s a rock cliff/hillside lookout you previously had to climb, it’s only about a 30 degree incline after you cross a big ditch so it’s not a particularly difficult climb but now that everyone has off road vehicles they’ve started to just drive up to the top and it’s clearly destroying the rock, wearing a path.
It’s infuriating I can visibly see the damage these vehicles are doing but everyone in them just sees it as a good wholesome time.

It can definitely kill you if you don’t take it seriously though.

Your comment made me go down a pretty fascinating rabbit hole, hypothetical types of biochemistry. You mentioned silicon, with something like ammonia or methane serving the role of water. Carl Sagan apparently considered Silicon and Germanium possible substitutes for carbon
The article also mentions non-green photosynthesis and that other colored plants could support photosynthesis and might even be preferred in places that receive a different mix of solar radiation than Earth. Science so is fucking cool.

Sure, price fixing is a thing that happens all the time even though it’s illegal.
Why do you guys defend corporations? They’ve shown time and time and again they’re pure evil motivated only by profit. They don’t get the benefit of the doubt.
