- Comment on The most unrealistic part of Odyssey is the journey taking 20 years 9 hours ago:
I noticed when he finally stepped back on his land again, he brought milk, because he told Telemachus back then that he was stepping out to get some milk. /s

I guess most families are similar after all.
- Comment on Its true 2 days ago:
Sure they can do whatever they want but over time the bad memories take their toll.
- Comment on Hell yeah. 2 days ago:
Libraries are the last sanctuary for the poor and the lost. It used to be the churches. Save all libraries everywhere and build way more.
- Comment on I may be wrong here. Isn't AI only as smart as the user putting in the information or commands? What's the big deal? 3 days ago:
“AI” is fast and can access way more “facts” (memories) in an instant so it is often wrong way more quickly than a typical human would be.
- Comment on If your in jail and you have a heart condition, and they taser you and you die are they responsible? Even if they know you have a heart condition? 3 days ago:
Anything goes in this bizarre new world. Cops’ll kick the shit out of you on the street and then be very careful you don’t hit your head when putting you in their car.
- Comment on What do I need to know about the Odyssey before watching the film? 3 days ago:
Read “Ulysses” by James Joyce. That’ll explain everything! /s Just watch the movie and enjoy, you don’t need to study up on it (although you may want to after seeing it). The Aeneid is a good follow up read.
- Comment on Lawyers ‘Scared’ to Do Their Jobs After Charges Against Palestine Action Barrister 3 days ago:
The status chasing and money chasing establishment esquires are afraid, the freedom fighters with a law degree say “Bring that shit on you motherfuckers!”.
- Comment on Why is AOC a big deal? She just speaks common sense and calls out absurdity. Have we really gone that far off the rails where we don't do it ourselves? 3 days ago:
It’s america. It’s because she is easy on the eyes. Don’t overthink it.
- Comment on Leggo's, Coles and Aldi selling Chinese tomatoes as 'Australian' and 'Italian' in products, forensic testing finds 3 days ago:
My only choices of oranges right now in my Canadian grocery stores are “USA” and “South Africa”. Thanks trump! Thanks musk! Where are my Moroccan clementine’s!

Johnny Cash Cow.
- Comment on Work harder, afford less? 4 days ago:
That’s not news. That’s capitalism. It’ll get worse before it gets better. We all know yearly rises in profits are not sustainable, yet shareholders throughout the land ( a small percentage of the population) keep whipping that horse.
- Comment on thoughts and prayers for science 4 days ago:
Jesus! I’m wrong again.
- Comment on What is this Iran War really about? 5 days ago:
I thought it was to suppress the trump-epstein child sex trafficking ring but now I’m not so sure. I think shaking the world like a baby causes great instability which allows a new world order to emerge.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 days ago:
How shocking! What a genius diversion! Now, release the trump-epstein files, okay?
- Comment on Thirsty much? 5 days ago:
“Spare the rod” until you are older and at the gym with your buddies. /s

Leprosy?
- Comment on Where do I go for unbiased news in the world without it having an ulterior motive or kissing ass to the establishment of said country? 1 week ago:
I usually watch the facts being reported and then tune out once all of the talking heads are discussing said facts. Always try to get more than one set of facts from more than one source to make sure the facts are similarly solid, regardless of the noisy opinions about the facts. At the end of the day it’s up to you to separate the wheat from the chaff. Don’t get fooled like Roger Daltrey did.
- Comment on And still I see no changes 1 week ago:
He’s no countryman. He’s a cabal man.
- Comment on Five tech giants are hiding $1.65tn in AI debt, using the trick that toppled Enron 1 week ago:
Those business people. Do they even know business? I think it’s just fraudulent of them to call themselves “business” people. Also, my kitchen sink tap is “tech”. Not everything “tech” has to be related to the computers or the “digitals”.
- Comment on Nintendo Responds To Tariff Refunds Lawsuit, Tells Customers They "Got What They Bargained For" 1 week ago:
Fuck corporate greed. My library rents switch games and for every three games I rent, only one is something I might pay for (but don’t have to). Who wants to spend 90 plus dollars just to take a chance on a game you might play for 10 minutes and decide you don’t like it?
- Comment on forklift 1 week ago:
It’ll never work. That punk is only carrying one forklift blade with him, and he’s not even bending his knees! /s
- Comment on The Republican Party used to be very big on smaller government. What caused them to turn into the party of big government over reach? When did it happen? 1 week ago:
Greed, grift and a chance for these geriatric fucks to relive their childhood by playing “follow the leader”.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Three things: Bloat, Greed, Capitalization.
- 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. 1 week ago:
They “saw” they were being filmed? Nowadays you should just “assume” you are being filmed. WTF?
