I guess I’ll just cry through the sound effects with the $1.8 million dollars a year I’ll have.

Agreed. But I’m not going to publicly endorse a dead-end DNC loser before it’s necessary. The DNC needs to act like people aren’t required to vote for them and field a candidate that can actually win votes.

Correct. Tom Holland did not direct a TV series a year before he was born. This is the American Tom Holland.

These all predate generative models, though these types of images in images are something that they’re very good at making (mostly cause they don’t give a fuck about the logic of the scene)

Wealthy men smelled the tide turning and funded the army in exchange for the accolades of leading during the time of revolution. They hijacked the movement to make a country where they ruled. It’s why they had such disdain for the rabble.

I don’t respect shitty weather channel naming shit. It just devalues actual weather systems worthy of names.

They’re not? But they do help with the anxiety of academic and social pressures

71,000 mating pairs isn’t exactly an L, dude.
- Comment on Y'all got one, right? 3 weeks ago:
Ah! I see it. That’s, umm, old news. The population has made significant gains since hunting was banned in the 60s. That, plus the banning of DDT, brought the 417 nesting pairs in 1963 to >71,000 pairs today.

… it’s illegal to touch a bald eagle, let alone hunt one. Their populations are thriving in the US. What are you even talking about?

The meme removed what they actually indicated for just “soil”. It’s absurdist, though technically correct.
- Comment on It's barely a science. 3 weeks ago:
It’s a field full of grifters that get lifted up because they tell rich people what they want to hear.
The Chicago School is the driving force behind the rise of neoliberalism, the movement right of Western democracies, and the return of fascism in America.
Yes, there’s good work done in the field. But economists could prove definitively that capitalism is killing us all and that socialism is the only solution to organizing civilisation, and the only economists being platformed would continue to be neoliberal shit heels.

It was raining here two weeks ago. Temperatures were in the 20-30s earlier this week. It’s being far below freezing AND recent warm weather that’s the danger.
- Comment on Keep everyone safe. Please cover coughing and sneezing 4 weeks ago:
Wrong. Cover with the crook of your arm, not your hand. The point is to reduce the contact between your phlegm and other people’s faces. If you cough into your hand and then touch something, you’ll get others sick.
Honestly, this disinformation makes me sick! /s

I’m neurodivergent as fuck, but I think this post is supposed to be sarcastic. So stating that you see it sincerely rings odd.

Really? That’s why I got a down vote? Dude, my metaphor in the first comment was likening it to “if we (Americans) called First Nation land ‘Indialand’”. So, no. If you map the metaphor back onto to the counter, it’s the UK’s fault, not America’s.

Yes, it is. It’s why they moderated that they did it as “very intentionally, just trying to get through”. Moving someone or their stuff without permission is an act of physical aggression. I’m not saying they punched them or anything, but there were aggressive in a physical manner.

- Comment on What a great idea 5 weeks ago:
So, you attempted regular social queues to communicate what you wanted, and when that failed you escalated to physical aggression and then got upset that the other person got upset?
Like, not trying to throw you under the bus or anything, you both miscommunicated in that situation but you were the one to escalate. If the other person didn’t know what they were doing wrong, couldn’t you have just told them “I’m so sorry, but I can’t get my cart around yours” when they didn’t get why you couldn’t get past?
It really sounds like you were both tired and didn’t have the grace in that moment for each other, rather than some failing on either of your parts.

I feel like you don’t understand the position because there is nothing in what you’re saying that implies that you do.
I’m going to play this conversation as it occurred from my perspective to see if you see what I mean.
Your first response is “you’re taking an absurdist position, so I’ll take the opposite absurdist position to demonstrate the problem. Could we eliminate all racist rules, of course not. Car rules can be racist, but we can’t just not have car rules”
I reply “yeah, but we can not have cars. Cars aren’t a requirement for society”
You reply “but rules would still apply to those who do the not car transport”
I reply “yes, but that wouldn’t exclude them from society. They would still be able to participate, unlike those kicked out of the hypothetical store”
To which you reply “but the grocery store wouldn’t apply to everywhere”
And I retort “no, but if they had any popularity, they would expand in order to deny disadvantaged people groceries at these ‘better’ stores”
And then your latest reply, which I can’t summarize without it becoming a straw man (my failing, not necessarily yours).
This grocery store isn’t “people extending basic decency” it’s “people not inconveniencing others on threat of permanent removal”. One is a social contract extended by and agreed to by others (basic decency) and the other is a threat enforced by the system, in this case the grocery store. You’re arguing that systems need rules. I’m arguing that using systems when it could just be standard human interaction is insane. Do you see the disconnect now?
Systems should be built to accommodate humans, not replace human interaction. Jane paying with a checkbook isn’t a reason she be barred from a public service. Christ on bikes, man.

Yeah, just like it was an Italian man that first called them Indians. Wouldn’t make it Italy’s fault if Americans called it Indialand, though.
