  I find it really weird that companies would want to pay the enormous cost of maintaining huge buildings full of people, that don’t actually need to be there, in person. That just seems like a huge waste of money.

  So…Republicans are fans of space communism?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fml lmao⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. Best case scenario…higher education would be free. We should all be encouraged to expand our minds, regardless of the financial incentives. If someone wants to spend their entire life living in a dorm room, just to pursue their intellectual aspirations, I say let them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fml lmao⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I firmly believe this should be the lender’s responsibility, the same way it works for business loans. If you are planning on borrowing that much money for something that will obviously never pay itself off…that constitutes a bad risk, and you should at least be advised against it, if not straight up have your loan application denied.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This works for small businesses. Sending them an email will just wind up in spam. But show up in person, and you might get to talk to an actual person. This distinguishes you from some random, semi-anonymous piece of paper or text header.

  If you’re applying at some gigantic mega-corporation, then none of that matters. They won’t have time to see you anyway, and will only look at your application if they specifically asked you to give them one.

  UK politics really confuses me. How can they be this way about the people committing Israel’s genocide…while also treating the people protesting against Israel’s genocide like they’re terrorists?

  Are the folks in charge, all schizophrenic?

  This is exactly why people stopped using cable television services, in favor of streaming. It seems we need another transition away from commercials, once again.

  Once again, Elmo is out in front of the crowd, running with the stupidest idea he can come up with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Star Trek Discovery that bad?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I really liked parts of it…from themes to characters…but found it really hard to sit through, most of the time. They had a really annoying way of rehashing everything that happened, after-the-fact…as if we needed to be constantly reminded about details that were literally from ten minutes ago.

  It reminded me of the dialogue formats used in cheesy Mexican telenovelas. You can’t mention someone’s name, without also including a brief description of who they are related to, and what they’ve previously done. No one talks like that in real life. Especially when the person you’re talking to, was right there with you when that event took place.

  If you remove all the superfluous dialogue, then the actual length of each episode, was less than 20 minutes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gabbard Ends Intelligence Report on Future Threats to U.S.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “A draft of the 2025 Global Trends report was carefully reviewed by D.N.I. Gabbard’s team and found to violate professional analytic tradecraft standards in an effort to propagate a political agenda that ran counter to all of the current president’s national security priorities,” the office said.

  In other words…Trump wasn’t going to like what it said.

  There’s no such thing as “slowly” when it comes to that much mass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So...how the fuck do I trust *anything*?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. This is exactly where the word “woke” comes from. Now that you are, there is no going back. You can either live with your rage, or do something to fix the problem. It’s up to you.

  If you want to know who to trust, look for the ones that are trying to help others, and help them.

  I feel bad for her. I can’t imagine being stupid enough to believe that you can hang around with people like this, and not get treated like garbage. They are literally living examples of the kind of shit they spew online…and yet somehow, these girls still don’t see them for who they are, until it’s too late.

  It only counts if they get shot in the neck first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨President Trump suggested people shouldn’t feel sorry for Joe Biden over his cancer diagnosis⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this in response to the left’s Charlie Kirk reactions…or is he making this statement unironically?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because you’re not as likely to play games with him, the way younger girls might. Emotional maturity is a very attractive thing, if you’re looking for something stable that doesn’t include a lot of unnecessary drama. It’s hard to find that when you’re in your 20’s.

  Most girls you get together with at that age, haven’t even figured out what they want yet. You might get attached, just in time for her to decide she needs something you don’t have. By the time you’re in your 40’s, you pretty much know what you want and what you don’t. There’s a lot less confusion and guesswork going on…and that can be very reassuring.

  In the end, it really depends on what you want from him, though. If he makes you happy, fuckin’ go for it. At the very least, you have some fun. Don’t deny yourself the opportunity, just because of his age. There are plenty of real red flags to look out for, without also adding arbitrary rules to the list.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone I’ve ever met, has their own personal definitions for the distinctions between these terms. As far as I’m concerned, that makes them all somewhat interchangeable.

  Sexuality is a spectrum. Where you fit on that spectrum is as unique as you are, as a person. So, go ahead and choose whatever label you prefer, to describe your position on it. Hell…go ahead and make up your own word for yourself, if that feels like the best way to describe yourself. There are no wrong answers.

  I’m still a little amazed Twitter hasn’t devolved into just another Truth Social, at this point. Why is anyone even still using it, outside of Elon’s muskrats?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the whole wrap up of Batel’s storyline was pretty stupid, NGL.

  I don’t understand why they didn’t just go with the moral dilemma of having to choose between her life or the possibly dozens of baby Gorn that were growing inside her.

  I mean, if you want to have a heart-wrenching example of how far Star Fleet is willing to go, in the name of peace and the preservation of innocent lives…leaving Batel to choose whether or not to sacrifice herself, in exchange for them…as well as the prospect of continued peace between the Federation and the Gorn? Wow. Now, that would have been a powerful display of compassion and benevolence.

  None of this “Universal Star-child” bullshit. Just a good old fashioned moral dilemma, about the needs of the many, outweighing the needs of the few.

  Lol! Wut? I thought this guy told everyone he was a “free speech absolutist”. What a clown.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do conservatives define being fascist solely as "being violent?"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Because they don’t want to admit that they’re fascists, so they leave out all the characteristics that would confirm that they are.
