The first country to recognize the US was Morocco, an overwhelmingly Muslim nation then, and before then, and now. And for that long-lasting support, real Americans suggest they don’t belong here.
- Comment on Expand North! So much room up there. 2 days ago:
Trenton, NJ, the most densely populated state in America, only has 91k. This represents only 1% of the population, versus 10 in ND. I’m not sure how it is around the country, but of the capitals of NJ, NY, PA, none are amongst the most populated cities in the states. And I don’t really care about the rest of the states (and I like Mass, but it doesn’t fit my example), so that’s that.
You’ve certainly piqued my interest in regard to populations of capitals v. the states they represent.

So that second one is interesting, because it brings up the whole pants things. Pants appears plural, but you don’t wear a pant. Seems to be a similar situation for tights here. A pair of pants. Hmmm. Got a do some research here about the history of pants.

And I think social media revolved heavily around people sharing the mundanity of their everyday life with the world, and in my experience, that was very rarely the point of message boards or forums.

“If you can comment on it, it’s social media.”
I can comment on how stupid that is, but that doesn’t make it social media. The term was invented to describe the likes of Facebook, and it’s predecessors and … Postdecessors. Antecedents? No that’s the same. Successors. There we go. Had to work that out.

The complete lack of attention span is staggering. Half a video of slime, other half some girl doing makeup or pretending to be multiple characters in some nonsense scenario.

Five Second Films used to make some great shorts back in the day. I think there is a niche for them, but then everyone’s like, oh, I can be funny for five seconds, and like everything, it becomes oversaturated with shit.

- Comment on "Pilot had to dive aggressively to avoid midair collision over Burbank airport." 2 weeks ago:
So I don’t know how true it is (or isn’t). This wiki article gives a list of “all newsworthy” incidents since 2023. Got two (now three) this year. Five last year. Ten in 2023. But newsworthy is the key word. We have an incident like we did in DC, and in the immediate wake of it there were news reports just about anytime someone sneezed on an airplane (hyperbole).
I’ll tell you, my eye test and feelings agree with you, but I just don’t know how true it is. And it’s hard to avoid getting political, but there is a vested interest in certain news circles to paint a bleak picture (don’t take this wrong, I’m in favor of funding government agencies).
So yeah, fuck it, you know?
- Comment on "Pilot had to dive aggressively to avoid midair collision over Burbank airport." 2 weeks ago:
As with all statistics, you can make the numbers say what we you want. Planes can carry 500+ people, so an incident risks all 500 of those passengers; similar for rail, but not so much for the bus. And I think about bus and there’s two different kinds of buses, IMO, the inner city bus that’s on the road for hours, but doing few miles while making frequent stops. Not sure what a journey is then, whether it’s stop by stop or from start to finish. And there’s
So yeah, I dunno. If it’s your time it’s your time. I don’t think any of these means of travel are “unsafe,” whatever that means. But I’ll still have a couple of beers before I get on the plane, because I’m not afraid of flying, but having a couple beers beforehand makes it better.

It’s cool, this was their incident, so clock reset. Can’t happen twice in so short a span, no way!

Your response here is an excellent example of shitposting. You are the new moderator. Keep up the shitty work.
- Comment on "Pilot had to dive aggressively to avoid midair collision over Burbank airport." 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, shitpost needs some better moderation. Shitpost has literally just become post whatever you want. And if that’s what it is, I guess that’s what it is, but the term “shitpost” to me had always been someone coming and derailing serious threads with nonsense opinions, unrelated pics, etc. So silly trolling.
This post is a picture of a tweet about a near mid-air collision. Unless the second plane was just fucking around, shitflying as they say, I don’t know that it qualifies for the low, low bar that is shitposting.

Back in my short-lived restaurant days, we would just take shots from wherever with a cube or two here and there, and they’d always sizzle up good. I’ll be honest, after watching the video someone else posted here, I expected it to be a little more violent.

I chased this for a while. One was never enough, two too many. Got gifted pillows by my wife a couple times, nothing ever worked. Finally found one, and it’s been huge. We also put a pad on top of our mattress, and don’t know if it’s the combination of that plus the pillow, but for the last few years I’ve used just this one pillow, and it’s been great. I take it with me when we go somewhere for a night.

Are you guys not on the same side of the argument? Not about the buttholes and their expulsions, but about where forums/message boards rank versus Facebook.
If, like all things, it’s a gradient, I’d plop these message boards far left of the likes of Myspace, and xanga, etc.
- Comment on I just shitpost🙃 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I came from ebaumsworld forums to Reddit, and Reddit to here, and they all scratch the same itch, which is basically me engaging in meaningless (not always) conversation with people, sometimes seriously, sometimes jokingly. All that’s changed is how it looks and how people talk.

Ha, they all showed up when the kids did, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t prop myself up for comfort. If it’s there, I’m going to use it.

I have that same stool (three, in fact), and they are all as tall as the bowl, not doable for squatty potty.
I also have shorter ones that would work great. Kids come in all sizes.

Saw this the other day and I hope some younger actresses can hear it. It’s nice to see her aging gracefully, I think there need to be more role models for just aging.
