Mechanical parts flying at high speed can and will kill the shit out of you, run for cover

…are there any women here today?
- Comment on Weeks of research 3 days ago:
I think Soldier Boy is Cap, Homelander is capitalist American (whom the Nazis took a lot of inspiration from) Superman. In any case the satire is well and truly lost on the people it’s aimed at.

Also DOS, the single button on the Mac mouse was a whole new way of using a computer.
- Comment on My collection is growing 4 days ago:
I bought a $15 cordless screwdriver for this exact reason and it’s great. No need to drag out the whole 18v drill but it makes fastening things much quicker and the built in torque limiter means I can cinch every bolt in a chair up to the same spec easily.
- Comment on Never buying milk from Walmart again 1 week ago:
They have driven out other grocers and created a food desert monopoly in some rural areas but yeah sure, let’s blame the people buying food and not the mega corp.

Let me go though your phone real quick, if you have nothing to hide it shouldn’t be a problem right?
- Comment on Never buying milk from Walmart again 1 week ago:
Even without adjusting the thermostat, those cooler doors are being opened and closed thousands of times a day, there’s no way everything inside stays chilled. Not to mention the folks who grab dairy products then leave them next to the beer or electronics when decisions were made…that milk with an Oct 31 date may have sat under a heater vent for hours before someone put it back in the fridge.
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 1 week ago:
It’s also how I got into a head on collision when some oblivious guy who pulled out in a left turn with oncoming headlights (me) driving straight in the lane. Close to home like most crashes are statistically, had I not been made to drive down to the office building then the rental car and repairs would ever have been needed. There are costs everywhere that can be factored into this

Saw the menu was typed in Papyrus and went ape shit, flipping tables and throwing chairs.

Oh I think it should be a day where the boss does the actual job and shows us why they’re boss
- Comment on You missed a spot 3 weeks ago:
Also had the VHS and watched it constantly. I drink a ton of water after living in the desert for years and still think of Kitana saying “use the element that brings life” occasionally while topping off my bottle. Said it to my gf once when she was poking fun at me for filling my bottle again so soon and she had no clue what I was talking about so that joke flew like a penguin

You’re not wrong, but at some point a Nazi in the streets going to have to catch a bullet or this will continue until there is no one left to speak up for anyone. The issue is coordination
- Comment on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | Official Trailer | Paramount+ (NYCC 2025) 3 weeks ago:
Agreed, my favorite doctor after Bones, although it does hurt my heart a bit to see him old like Riker in Picard. I recently restarted TNG and they put Bones in old man makeup for the handoff episode…time itself is enough :(

Great muzzle discipline by middle guy, let’s just keep that belly full and the rifle unloaded

In Baldurs Gate 3 the controller vibrates when you’re choosing a target to cast a spell on, you could just hit R1 and leave it there…
- Comment on Phineas explains nuclear power (and how fear mongering ruined it) 5 weeks ago:
Let’s all take a minute to remember that Greenpeace was founded and funded by oil companies to spread propaganda directly opposite all these points. As you said, Chernobyl was the only one to actually impact surrounding populations and it was entirely due to the USSR cutting corners, not testing the emergency backup system properly, and trying to cover it all up before actually starting to clean up.
- Comment on Woof is dog for "You may test that assumption at your convenience" 5 weeks ago:
My dog is usually a chaos demon but if you’re feeling particularly down she will grab one of her toys and keep pushing it into your hands until you play with her as a distraction. Dogs are incredibly emotionally sensitive and empathetic and sometimes that wet snuffling nose is the only thing that gets me out of bed

IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!
Now Rodney who fired up that unstable energy chamber after it had already fried one guy on the other hand…

Wait until you find out about peppers, especially bell. Yellow red and green…

Yeah well fuck him then, Lt Aldo Raine is a perfect example of how to deal with Nazis though
- Comment on Aged like milk 1 month ago:
I feel like it’s cruel but this should be posterized and waved around his funeral. Maybe the people dressed in black will understand the concept of empathy then, violence really does seem to be the only language a fascist understands.

There’s a shop in Salem called Bunghole Liquor, always someone out front taking a photo in front of the sign and I think they have a 2nd location now

If you say things with enough confidence, maybe toss in the phrase “AI” somewhere…yeah you kinda can just create money from nothing.
In entirely unrelated news grocery prices go up.
