  You’re so stupid that you thought Bose–Einstein condensate was something that you wipe off of your windows.

  You’re so stupid that you think that you’re not.

  If they are able to consent and they do consent.

  They do, but they would never show it to you.

  They hide that room from the people they know would misuse it.

  By themselves I assume you mean each other.

  Where I have been an informed voter, I have always voted for the greater good, for the policies and politicians that at least claim to be focused on the well-being of the individual, vetted to the best of my abilities.

  But stylish. Cybertruck is Sega Genesis graphics shoved into a ps1 body

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Y'all might not be ready for this⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, remember Doc Brown’s reason for choosing the DeLorean was because, “If you’re gonna travel through time, you ought to do it in style”.

  Cybertruck is not style unless you are a brain-rotted seven-year-old.

  Maybe a Rivian? You’d have to come up with a different issue other than the car not starting, like the difficulty of charging it or something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHAT?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you ever stop to think that the reason why there are so many half elves like myself is because the half-breeds are not affected by your puny cold iron?

  And also our massive reserves of leprechaun gold have enabled us to store an inordinate amount of cold lead as a response.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would be against it if that person is not someone that would be lifting my child up.

  I don’t know, the society I’m in, the woman gets to choose her own partner and her own future, so even if I’m against it, she can still do whatever the hell she wants to do.

  But if I think she’s making a poor choice, then I will say, I don’t think this person is right for you. But no matter what happens, I love you, and if worse comes to worse, you’ll have me there to help pick up the pieces.

  And if best comes to best, I’ll be cheering you the entire way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What was the actual reason for the crusade against NSFW games?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Multiple things can be true at the same time, the trick is being capable of understanding that and acknowledging that without distracting from the primary objective.

  Unfortunately, broad-mindedness of that nature requires a minimum of room temperature IQ to handle and far too many people simply do not make the grade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pspspsps⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Its only happened once for me. I was working at a knockoff waffle house and there was a bird dive bombing customers as they came in.

  I went out to check it out and stuck my hand out, and the bird landed in it. It let me pet them, I brought it inside and fed it a pecan.

  I’m also native (Lakota) so it was a massive aura boost for me from the customers who got attacked by the bird watching me carry it around for a while.

  After a while I went back outside and held it up and it flew away.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pspspsps⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll see that and raise you “sticking your hand out when there’s a bird in the area and having the bird land in your hand”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to make myself read my curriculum books?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re gonna eat a whale, you gotta do it one bite at a time.

  It would help if you are curious about the subject matter. Curiosity is an amazing motivator for reading.

  What secrets does the book contain? What is it going to teach you about the universe? What parts of this book do you already understand?

  What’s the chance there’s something in that book that will help you reframe something else in your life with new information?

  What information in the book is going to be on the test?

  If you want to know the answers to those questions, or the other questions that you might have floating around in your head, the only way to get them is to read the book.

  Don’t read it because you’re being forced to read it. Read it because you want to know more. You want to be the kind of person who knows things. And the only way to actually know things, to have crystalline knowledge, is to read the books that contain the information that the people that have come before you have sorted out and assembled for you to absorb.

  Surely you have a goal in life. You wouldn’t be forcing yourself to study in college if you weren’t trying to reach a goal. Reading these books are parts of the path that you’re taking to reach your goal.

  If you can internalize this concept and apply it to those books, reading those books is not going to be a chore. It will become fun. It will become exciting. You will read faster and flip through pages faster and train yourself on how to absorb information quickly.

  People achieve what they believe they are supposed to achieve. They go in the direction that seems most right to them.

  Seems like reading these books are the right direction for you, and once you make it through, your mental muscle will be much more defined and impressive for the effort.

  My favorite Greek parable is the portion of the story of Pandora’s Box, where even after all of the evils were released onto the world, hope remained.

  I agree, I’m just saying if I see the bill on my credit card, there will be consequences, and if I can’t resolve it amicably, then I have a car that I’m willing to sacrifice for the cars.

  If you deliver a burrito to my door and then tell me to pay for it, and I never asked, there’s going to be a fight.

  I will drive my car through the front wall of DoorDash before I’ll pay them for a burrito I did not order.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SBA #236 Sins and Virtues⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Chastity and prudishness are not related.

  I would argue that the majority of people would prefer to have a single partner that they share their sexuality with, and that is their greater joy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SBA #235 Sins and Virtues⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They say that patience is a virtue, but I disagree. I believe that patience is the protein that you use to build the muscle of virtue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reckless quads on the streets of Birmingham, almost knocking someone down⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And as a brown kid that lived there, I can say that there is a blanket of racism that is so thick that it doesn’t look like racism.

  The only way I was able to become aware of it was getting away from it long enough that my normality returned and then I ended up going back to visit friends and family and wondering why the hell people are following me around grocery stores.

  There is still some of the evil angry racism that they portray in movies where they say the n-word and hang people and treat people of different skin colors as if they were subhuman, yes. That hasn’t gone away, but it is generally societally frowned upon, and people that are technically racist cheer when people like that end up getting caught for their crimes and suffering retribution.

  The racism that is there is that they “other” people of different skin colors. Even if you are “one of the good ones”, you are still only allowed to associate with the group because of your “one of the good ones” status, and your skin color is the reason why you have that status.

  The racism is so deeply embedded into the fabric of southern society that the people that live under it cannot see it. It’s like when you go to somebody’s house and they own pets, and they think their house smells fine, but all you can smell is the pet smell.

  They’ve gone nose blind to it.
