I don’t know how we’ve managed to get to 2025 and there’s still apparently people who haven’t seen a thousand shit PEMDAS posts already

Don’t be "both sides"ing this, one of those sides was bigger than the other by an extremely large margin.

Memes are weird, like, you contributed nothing to its creation, yet you’re acting all defensive like it was yours

It’s easy to see why there was so much resistance to getting these released. It’s not just Trump in there, it’s every fucker, all chatting away pleasantly even when he’d already done one jail sentence for sex trafficking. Even Noam fucking Chomsky is cosying up to him.

Yup, suddenly now they’re interested in nuance

Just so nobody forgets, North Face planted ads on Wikipedia, and then threw one of their regional managers under the bus when they got caught, as if to claim that it wasn’t really the real company doing it.

You don’t even need to, you just need seven digits of numbers. As password formats go, it’s hella low entropy.

Your phrasing implies that the issue was that farmers all sat about at home not working because they weren’t getting paid. There were plenty of problems, but I’ve seen scant evidence that that the threat of getting fired for not doing your job was even in the top three.
- Comment on Why are some shows so dark? 3 weeks ago:
I can tolerate that, the one I can’t stand is Netflix shows where the ~dialogue is a mumbled quiet~ and random bits of foley try to blow my speakers out.
It makes it especially noticeable just how dodgy a lot of foley work is, eg when someone throwing a punch and missing still goes WHOOSH at the same volume they use for gunshots

It doesn’t stand up on its own terms on other levels as well.
Even the most cynical misandrist interpretation of how research is funded would still lean towards men being given the agency on whether sex lead to pregnancy.

It’s a good way to get answers to Password Recovery questions that people forgot they used when signing up to some website or email service 15 years ago but are still active on

Lucky I’ve not encountered him, the urge to talk to him like a 5 year old would be too great.
“What a big truck you have! And it’s so high up! I bet you have to do a big jump to get up there. And look, it says “WAR” on the front, that’s fun! Did you put that on yourself, or did you ask a man do it for you?”

If money is speech, what is a company “saying” when it donates to both parties?
- Comment on Fictional 4 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m with you, because I don’t understand why a “dumbass” would be the speed of light.
Makes more sense for God to measure things in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units

Some people find the smell very strong. Something to do with receptors idk? I know someone with a banana allergy who can immediately tell if he’s entered a room with bananas in it from smell alone, even if they’re not peeled.

That said, the English language shows how messed up its history is.
The irony is that Britain is, to the best of my knowledge, the only country other than Sweden whose mainland hasn’t been occupied by a foreign invader in over 950 years.

The duality of man -
Wholesome: dad gets involved with his kid’s hobby and helps him win
Not wholesome: kid shows up to play with a rigged beyblade someone else made for him, in order to participate in a one-sided competition, predictably breaking the other kid’s toy

I dunno, I feel like neither empty space nor vast aeons of darkness are particularly pulling their weight in terms of really doing existing with any real level of conviction. It’s easy to be vast if you’re doing fuck all with most of it.

I wondered why some guy on my Discord kept giving out tons of free GOG keys. Guess it’s probably that?

Yeah whenever I see them I think what story are they trying to tell? Are we supposed to believe that this man decided, right, I want to post something online about $TOPIC, so I’ll get my whiteboard, write my post on that, go to the harbour, get someone to take a photo of me holding it up, and then I’ll upload that photo online so people can see what I think?

Yeah, fragmenting into groups was an important part of the book.
