- Comment on Is it really worth the BS for a couple more years? 3 days ago:Poor nutrition has been correlated with a lack of success across all dimensions for generations… Including intelligence on every measure. 
- Comment on I'm fine with being stupid 3 days ago:True, I should have said “lower your expectations” and just left it there. 
- Comment on I'm fine with being stupid 3 days ago:Surface area. It’s Twitter, give people a break. 
- Comment on Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified 3 days ago:Why are you worried about other people’s priorities? Worry about your own. 
- Comment on Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified 3 days ago:Social justice isn’t the only thing on people’s minds. If that’s all you care about in your life you need to get some friends, make some hobbies, and start working on enjoying the life you have instead of constantly hand-wringing in endless despair over the state of “society”. 
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 3 days ago:They can’t use a slide rule either. What are they teaching in these schools?? 
- Comment on Sad but true 6 days ago:Idk what his secret sauce was Drugs 
- Comment on I ain't risking shit 1 week ago:It’s not a retail device, and it’s loaded with a store version of iOS. It’s tracked specifically to that apple store. Here is a recent article. The phones are designed to work while they’re connected to the apple store wifi and that’s it. You’d get more useful spare parts if you robbed people outside a nightclub. 
- Comment on Anon is forever alone 1 week ago:You’ve reduced your options to online dating or hooking up with club girls. I’d start by expanding those options. 
- Comment on Anon is forever alone 1 week ago:Someone who is hardworking and disciplined enough to keep the same shitty job for ten years could easily make a partner happy and get satisfaction from a relationship. Too many people look at what other people have and let it make them feel hopeless when they should be looking at what they have themselves and let it make them feel empowered. 
- Comment on Raven Big Mom 1 week ago:Someone doesn’t need to spend a lot of money on a Halloween costume this year. 
- Comment on grindset challenge 1 week ago:4pm?? During the cpbl playoffs? Unlikely. 
- Comment on Squiggly Boie 1 week ago:Why are so many people still using Twitter? 
- Comment on Not promoting hate speech but what happened to all the slights/slurs/vulgarity from like the 20s and 40s. There were so many. Now it seems well I can only think of three? 2 weeks ago:Oh shit I thought you meant things like bunkum or balderdash lmao 
- Comment on Who wants a merkin? 2 weeks ago:Nice I’m going to be Bigfoot for Halloween this year and I’ve been exploring crotch options. 
- Comment on Not promoting hate speech but what happened to all the slights/slurs/vulgarity from like the 20s and 40s. There were so many. Now it seems well I can only think of three? 2 weeks ago:Which three? My theory is that universal public education was less than a generation ago in most places, printing books was still expensive, and forget movie cameras and audio recording devices. You really had to be sure of the stuff you wanted to record before you recorded it in those days, in any medium, and you needed some money to be able to do it. As a result, a lot of the content we see nowadays that documents how average people talked and behaved was never written down or filmed or whatever. So people probably didn’t really say “what in the Sam Hill…???” they probably said “what the fuck!” You just don’t know it because every ten year old didn’t have a 4k video camera in their pocket ready to roll on every bullshit that everyone did. 
- Comment on Discuss 2 weeks ago:I don’t like this food. Ok, there’s lots of stuff I don’t like. Why not grab a Snickers? It’s an abomination! Whoa there, it’s just a Reese’s cup… phillistine depravity!! Look, that’s excessive, isn’t it? And there’s only one L in phi- AMERICA BAD!!! Calm down, psycho! Holy shit touch grass! 
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:80-90 ciggies a day Who made this stupid nonsense? 
- Comment on And I won't delete them either for nostalgia reasons 3 weeks ago:Normalize respecting young people’s contributions, knowledge, and skills before mentioning their age… 
- Comment on After 10 years of every social media platform becoming just another political propaganda machine Im totally bored of it. 4 weeks ago:When they added all those default filters to bluesky for things like violence and hate speech and didn’t add one for politics, I deleted my account. I’m so so so very tired of it. I’m also 100% sick of slacktivists thinking posting their politics on social media does anything other than make other people post their politics on social media. 
- Comment on Bro 5 weeks ago:Dude 
- Comment on Anon doesn't understand streamer fans 5 weeks ago:Isn’t that Pokimane? She’s ranked in League. Cute women can do great things. If you sexualize it maybe you’re a creep. Go watch her play. 
- Comment on International travel 5 weeks ago:Same experience here, and when I traveled as an immigrant, everyone was always very cordial and welcoming to me (which is more than I can say for the immigrant experience in America). I was in Brazil during Bolsonaro and found many lefties who appreciated the acknowledgement that they were still there working hard despite their country’s leadership (one of them got murdered by his father over politics). I was in Chile during the student riots under Pinera too and was welcomed by the leftists in the street throwing bottle bombs and the cops in riot gear with water cannons. The average person everywhere is involved in a continuous global struggle for human rights, education, economic equity, etc, and they recognize your empathy no matter what flavor of billionaire is currently running the country. 
- Comment on International travel 5 weeks ago:Any local who can’t separate you from the corrupt billionaires who run your country isn’t worth your time no matter where you are. Anyone who would lie to another person about where they’re from because they can’t separate themselves from the corrupt billionaires who run their country isn’t worth my time no matter where you’re from. 
- Comment on Philadelphia neighborhood group approves $25,000 to fight bike lanes 5 weeks ago:They would see cities designed for pedestrian and bicycle traffic. My city here in America is proud of the hundreds of miles of bike lanes but all they did was paint a bike stencil on the shoulder of the road and put up a sign telling cyclists to stay to the right. 
- Comment on How many hands long do they get? 5 weeks ago:But I highly encourage everyone to ask “Okay, but is that a Swedish mile, nautical mile, Roman mile, or Chinese mile?” whenever miles comes up with Americans. I find it tedious when someone pretends not to understand a conversation just to make some academic point, don’t you? 
- Comment on How many hands long do they get? 5 weeks ago:The image in the OP literally says “British: hey guys, we developed a thing called the metric sy-” so your argument is with the creator… 
- Comment on Anon dates a 19 y/o 1 month ago:Who told you there was anything at all you could do in your life that there wouldn’t be something better than you at? Why do you let that stop you from doing anything?
