I find seagulls hilarious with that whole head tilted all the way back laughing like a dry hinge.

I don’t know, I just regret not arranging my finances earlier so I can get the fuck out of the city, not have to work, and live as far as possible from people.

Human history is nothing but a series of people figuring out how to get along with eachother.
I’ve rarely laughed that hard. Thanks!

Are you new to the human race? Glee at other’s deaths is in our DNA.
Systems aren’t broken so much as the last few decades, say from the 1980s to about the mid 2000s, were the unusual thing. Now is normal again compared to the long-term behavior of our unsavory little ape-based species.
We’re garbage, the sooner you make peace with that, the easier it gets.

I’d like to ask a general question that I’m not entirely sure I can give enough context for.
When did we as a society start listening so intently to what amounts to barely more than children? This Kirk guy looked chromosomal on top of being barely out of high school, how and why do so many people listen to him?
Half a century ago thought leaders were people like Isaac Asimov or Carl Sagan or Gwynne Dyer or Roy Bonisteel or any number of scholarly people over a certain age.
When did we start caring about high schooler’s opinions on a national level?

Golden Earring - Twilight Zone for the lyrics
“Where am I to go now that I’ve gone too far? Soon, you will come to know when the bullet hits the bone”
Utah Saints - Something Good, for the hilarious, to me, coincidence between the song title, the band name and the location of the event
*NSYNC - Bye Bye Bye, need I say more

- Comment on A conundrum 1 week ago:
I never thought I’d end up at a place in life where I worry about real estate valuations, but here we are. In my condo building, things are getting decrepit. I wondered why no one else seemed to care then I realized I’m in the minority of owner-residents, every one else rents out, so they don’t care about how it looks. They just care about rents coming in.
Then I wondered why they don’t care about losing value, then I realized, no one is losing value, some units here sell for the same price as a single-family home in the suburbs, even with the graffiti and homeless people wandering the street.

So they don’t work. They’re nothing more than pseudo-science gobbled up by “Truth, Justice, And The American Way” boomers who also watch NCIS and cheer when they blow up the bad guys on the big screen.
- Comment on A conundrum 1 week ago:
The corrosive corollary to ever-rising real estate valuations is that there is no incentive to keep buildings like condos nice or neighborhoods clean, someone will buy at the inflated price anyway since they all are inflated.
So basically I feel in Canada we live in a system that pulls valuation out of thin air, produces nothing, incentivizes no one, yet allows everything.

No, there’s no scientific backing to really confidently say that no two fingerprints are alike. That doesn’t change that we can identify them and match them.
If you observe that fingerprints can be matched, that’s all you need to know.
Now lie detectors don’t work at all…

But he spoke well and smiled a lot, especially when fake-drinking that Flint water. What a hero.
