A right triangle indistinguishable from a line segment. In my book, that borders on blasphemy.

I hope you’re right. I would love for their power to enslave to be geographically confined.

You left out there part where everyone has been enslaved by Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg to collect and deliver water to each of their strategic reserves. All “payment” for labor is made via rations of raw water.

I’m glad you can find so much happiness from others’ misfortune. You seem emotionally well prepared for the coming world order.
- Comment on Don't Worry About Retirement, Millennials 1 week ago:
Thanks. I’ll convey this to Mr. Brooks for his consideration.
- Comment on Don't Worry About Retirement, Millennials 1 week ago:
Yeah, it should be, but 18-24 y/o’s are much easier to indoctrinate and radicalize, as well as far more reckless in their tolerance for risky activities.

Pizza cutter mentality. All edge, no point.
- Comment on Don't Worry About Retirement, Millennials 1 week ago:
In totalitarian regimes—communism, fascism, religious fundamentalism—popular support is a given. You can start wars, you can prolong them, you can put anyone in uniform for any length of time without ever having to worry about the slightest political backlash. In a democracy, the polar opposite is true. Public support must be husbanded as a finite national resource. It must be spent wisely, sparingly, and with the greatest return on your investment. America is especially sensitive to war weariness, and nothing brings on a backlash like the perception of defeat. I say “perception” because America is a very all-or-nothing society. We like the big win, the touchdown, the knockout in the first round. We like to know, and for everyone else to know, that our victory wasn’t only uncontested, it was positively devastating. -Max Brooks, World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

I like to think coyotes are perfectly capable of this behavior, but they make the conscious choice to be lawless jaywalkers to stick it to the man.

Sometimes you Germans love them a little too much and France has to get restraining orders.
- Comment on Blow up fossil fuel infrastructure 4 weeks ago:
I mean, the stuff inside the infrastructure basically exists to burn, almost like it’s asking for it.
That being said, there are some very useful non-combustitory uses of crude oil. It’d be nice if its wholesale extraction could be limited to actual durable uses with less climatory impact and not just to be turned into CO2, H2O(v), and various other badder stuffs.

YYYYYMMDD
I prefer to think we’re in the year 12026, since homo sapiens really got things going around 10,000 BCE.
- Comment on Don’t you lie to me 5 weeks ago:
Without touching it, stake it out. Let other people passing by know about it. Maybe ask someone else to stake it out so I could go make a sign that says “Stack of Cash, found Unmonitored. If you know the owner, plz notify her or him. Possibly a police sting op, handle at your own risk.”

I think I like Weezer. I also like that Weezer seems to get a lot of hate, but doesn’t seem to care and just keeps going. If a Weezer song comes on, I’m unlikely to change the channel, but I’m also unlikely to seek it out (except maybe Franks and Beans…haven’t watched that video in years…also Charlie the Unicorn).

Don’t discount IBD as a potential cause. Some forms of IBD can produce tons of brain fog and confusion with few other symptoms at all; even if your digestive tract is quietly getting all messed up by your immune system, you might not feel much of anything for a while beyond the neurological effects.
- Comment on Are dictator's pieces of shit starting out the gate or is it over time they become corrupted and power hungry? Why is that? 1 month ago:
Everything I learned about government I got from CGP Grey and the book his video is based off of, The Dictator’s Handbook.

- Comment on More of a Jersey cotton kinda guy. 5 months ago:
Exactly. One of the first things I (naively) did as an “adult” after leaving uni was indulge in a set of (discounted) leopard print satin sheets for my brand new adult bed. The novelty very quickly evaporated as the pillows shot out from under my head and the flat sheet levitated itself to the floor within 15 minutes of sliding down to attempt a slumber.

Nah, it’s like a mint misstrike on a series of coins. They tend to have very high eventual numismatic value due to their rarity.
So, go out and smash everyone else’s identical plate so yours is the only one.
- Comment on Expecto patronum my ass! 6 months ago:
Gotcha. I left the franchise after Book 7 and its two movies. I’ve watched maybe 15 minutes of one of the FB movies (maybe the second one?) while on an overnight flight and was immediately lost and not entertained enough to commit, especially when Forrest Gump was an alternative option.
