- Comment on Why isn't it considered vegan to harvest animals who die naturally? 1 day ago:
Literally used to mean literally. It still does. It just used to a well.
- Comment on Roblox to block children from talking to adult strangers after string of lawsuits 3 days ago:
Can’t protect them too much, though. Otherwise, how would the pedo-in-chief and his ilk get a fresh crop of sex slaves?
- Comment on How do you beat post-work floppiness? 1 week ago:
Consider you might be depressed. Professional help could be in order. No shame in seeking help.
- Comment on I'm coming for you 2 weeks ago:
Surely you can’t be serious.
- Comment on School pickup lines are wild 3 weeks ago:
Saw this description of kid rock and it seems like it does here too. He’s got tattoos of his kids but not custody.
- Comment on Amazon cuts 14,000 jobs, blames AI 3 weeks ago:
Also AI can’t be sued. You can de-risk your potential litigation as well.
- Comment on Ok, boomer 3 weeks ago:
I mean, not always. It’s still used appropriately. It’s just also used inappropriately as well.
- Comment on mercy merci 3 weeks ago:
While I try to let them chill for the most part, the eight legged bastard that descended from the ceiling in the middle of the room to just eye level with me got clapped like a bitch.
- Comment on When did people start saying "have a good rest of your day" 3 weeks ago:
Don’t tell me what to do! I tell anyone I want to have a nice rest of their day.
- Comment on Was the fall of Rome this stupid? 5 weeks ago:
history happens slowly then suddenly
With how fast we are able to communicate, I’d say it’s likely to happen faster this time around. When the emperor does something that fucks over the populace, they can hear about it within minutes. During Roman times it could have taken months.
- Comment on Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar? 1 month ago:
Is it? I always thought lower life expectancies were dragged down by infant mortality. Basically if you survive the crib you’d likely live into your 70s.
- Comment on For when arguments go off the bottom of The Debate Pyramid 1 month ago:
The problem is if the other person doesn’t go higher. You can completely refute the central claim of their argument. But if they simply respond by essentially shoving their fingers in their ears yelling “I can’t hear you!” the argument will go no further.
- Comment on If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.? 1 month ago:

Janeway and Paris getting their lizard fuck on and having kids.
- Comment on So...how the fuck do I trust *anything*? 1 month ago:
As far as institutional trust, you’ll have to decide for yourself IMO. Do you agree with the messaging from the institution? Do you generally trust the people within it? If so, progress, otherwise don’t.
Something I do for this is to look at what the “opposition” says in response to anything salacious or inflammatory. Does the other side address it directly and provide evidence? Do they ignore it? What’s their track record on the subject? Consider the end of Obama’s last term when all the right could talk about was him golfing. Then trump gets in office and golf’s even more. Anyone who botched about Obama and was silent for trump lose a ton of credibility. The exact same thing for the debt. The right was screaming about how much debt Obama added. Then trump goes and adds more in his one term than Obama did in two. Those same critics? Fucking silent.
- Comment on I get texting and driving being a danger. But back in my day you could eat drink change radio stations etc. Why weren't laws implemented back then? 1 month ago:
States are likely to have laws against “distracted driving” or “reckless driving”. Those likely encompass much of the driving while texting or fiddling with controls. Unless a cop directly saw the action this are usually charges levied after an accident happens and do nothing to prevent it. Once enough crashes are attributed to a narrower set of actions, public opinion can be swayed to support action against that narrower set. Now with a specific “no texting while driving” law, cops can pull you over simply for holding a phone. They don’t need to see you do something that would constitute “distracted” or “reckless” driving to ticket you.
- Comment on What is in for the antivax in a government? 2 months ago:
But they get validation. It’s not just that they think their ideas and information is correct. They are correct and doctors and entire industries are wrong or corrupt. That makes them smarter than those eggheads that went to school for sometimes a decade and have spent further decades with their face in a microscope. After decades of education and dedicated research somehow Cletus from BFE, Dumbfuckistan and Google was able to best them intellectually.
- Comment on erotic scenes actors and actresses, how do you not get aroused while acting in those scenes? 2 months ago:
This might sound weird but I have a Coldplay fetish. That can’t go wrong right?
- Comment on how good are you at lying during job interviews? 2 months ago:
Was being interviewed by a few people at a company. I asked about hours, and they essentially said, “Being a salaried position, it would be the standard 40 hours, but we like to usually work 45-50 a week.” I think they might have heard my brain mentally slamming the door on them so fucking hard cause there were some of those awkward looks.
- Comment on CEO pay and stock buybacks have soared at the largest low-wage corporations 2 months ago:
Well that’s just dangerous! How will I tell them apart from a piñata?
- Comment on How would one exit a black hole? 2 months ago:
Which begs the question, what happens to the estranged particle that escapes the black hole from hawking radiation.
- Comment on How would one exit a black hole? 2 months ago:
Wouldn’t the hawking radiation need to be a higher rate than the black hole is absorbing matter?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Sounds similar to being told, “At least you’re pretty,” after saying something stupid.
