So… My fellow Americans… Ummm… We should copy good things when we see them right? I mean we embraced the taco. So…

My coworker does this with video and shit too it kills me…
5 guys in the same area, 4 of us know how headphones work, but Oldie McDust has to make us listen to his crap music and whatever video he’s listening to at the time…
He figured out how tictok works, even got himself a damn Bluetooth speaker but can’t bother to take the hint from the rest of us and get headphones…

And the Tankie Triad is against and sometimes straight up hostile to new users who aren’t tankies
I think it depends on what you’re saying and how you say it. I’m by no means a tankie but definitely really left leaning, as I learn more i’d probably even say leftist (I just can’t get behind the idea of a dictatorship of the proletariat even if I understand the reasoning) but I comment literally everywhere and have never had an issue with hexbear, .ml, or anything.
I think it’s more of a “know your audience” thing. I don’t go into a hexbear conversation firing off about “China bad” or whatever, I just say what I wanted that was relevant to their post.
- Comment on Starfield's abandoned gore and dismemberment system sure would have made it less grey 5 days ago:
As far as I know there have been no meaningful changes to the game other than the addition of a ground vehicle and the dlc everyone seems to hate.
I really really really really wanted to like the game, but the bean counters won again and had an incredibly soulless safe product released for all audiences. As they say, a game for everyone is a game for no one. :/
The way I got around what you mentioned in the spoiler was to just save my second playthrough as the “real one” so what you do still mattered.

- Comment on What advice would you give to your younger self? 1 week ago:
Your never going to “find yourself” so even though you find programming mind numbingly boring learn web dev and get in early, make money, and buy amazon & nvidia stock. Don’t stay local for that girl, go away to college, she’s going to leave you anyway. Then I’d tell them to slap me as hard as they can since I almost entirely fucked their future.

- Comment on If you can’t discriminate based on age, how are there 55+ neighborhoods? 1 week ago:
No but I want to live in a neighborhood where the houses are actually fucking affordable.
It’s so goddamn disgusting to see a house around or even under 200k and then see “55+ community only”
Why the fuck do they get to have cheap housing when the argument is always “younger people just haven’t increased their value yet but as they get older they’ll have money too.” (The implication being “don’t worry about poor young people”)
So they get to have their increased wealth and decreased housing cost?
- Comment on The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hits Over 2 Billion Mod Downloads 1 week ago:
…I may or may not have just bought a new NVME drive so I could handle the lorerim mod and not have to delete everything else on my drive.
500GB total is pretty disgusting for a mod to be honest.
- Comment on Learning a new language is easy! 1 week ago:
I haven’t tried, but I feel like that concept would be easy for me to grasp because I already find myself doing it with English if I happen to know the old words, Latin or otherwise, used to construct the modern ones.

Don’t have anything to add as I agree, just wanted to say your username gave me a chuckle!
…Unless I’m actually an idiot and it wasn’t a geology pun lol :P
- Comment on Federal appeals court strikes down Biden net neutrality rules 2 weeks ago:
The peasants shared a common version of reality and had a king living within a distance they could reach with a guillotine. We do not live in a comparable world unfortunately. We have decentralized kings, a system that encourages their replication, and propaganda networks that create “reality” to keep us separated :(

- Comment on Anon sees happy people 3 weeks ago:
That makes a lot of sense and I do tend to score high in agreeableness when I’ve taken those silly personality tests
- Comment on Anon sees happy people 3 weeks ago:
I’ll never understand that reaction. I completely understand seeing that and wanting to kill yourself, but I never thought the happy couple should die.
I see those kinds of couples and my only thoughts are usually some form of “lucky lucky. I’m such a worthless piece of shit.” Lol
- Comment on "Images of 'Saint Luigi Mangione, The patron saint of health care justice' have been making rounds on social media" 4 weeks ago:
“There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge (or ammo). Please use in that order.”
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_boxes_of_liberty
They’ve all but taken the soap box, we have “free speech zones” to “safely” protest out of sight, and when we ignore those the media either doesn’t cover it, or gives the most unflattering description, taking the side of corporations (see: Amazon strikes framed in "how will this affect your Christmas delivery. A.k.a: be mad at the employees)
They’ve taken the ballot box with Citizens United literally paving the way for what Elmo Muskrat is doing now: buying elections. We can’t elect the people we’d want to elect.
They’ve taken the jury through the elimination of the teaching of the concept of jury nullification (but also doesn’t apply in this specific situation) and have taken the Judiciary through ratfuckery (see: Mitch McTurtle refusing to seat any SCOTUS judges when it’s a Democrat picking them)
So all we’re left with is the “cartridge” or, ammo box.
They force this on us but “thankfully” at least some of us won’t just let us keep getting steamrolled. :/

- Comment on Simple spelling rule. 4 weeks ago:
It’s actually a reference to Brick House, the lyrics:
“Ow, she’s a brick house She’s mighty-mighty, just lettin’ it all hang out She’s a brick house That lady’s stacked and that’s a fact Ain’t holding nothing back”
Referring to the demeanor of Dr.House and how he lets it all hang out, and holds nothing back.
:P

- Comment on We dumb 5 weeks ago:
There is a third way!
You thirst to know more but have a soul crushing deficit of self esteem and truly believe you’re incapable of anything more than menial labor. You remain with your thirst, not content with your ignorance, but unable to overcome the self image of “absolute moron with no place in the scientific community who must be narcissistic for even thinking he could be” and so you grow to hate yourself even more because of it!
…Err… Or so my friend says.

Jesus fucking Christ… So not only are they parasites, but they’re the kind of parasites that kill the host and occupy the body for their own purpose…
To call them scum feels way too tepid.

The “best” part, UHC is the largest of the healthcare deniers making massive profits and bad luck Brian got paid the least of all the CEOs of the top 10 healthcare deniers.
Getting screwed by the company that screws the most people. Poetic.

- Comment on How is this Amazon ad anything BUT a trick to get a 7 year old child to get their mitts on dad's phone and charge his credit card $13K in two clicks? 5 weeks ago:
It’s funny because in my initial writing of my comment I actually wrote pesos instead of yen but I wasn’t sure how close the peso was to the dollar so I went with yen lol

That better be in yen or something JFC. Who’s their market Saudi princes?!
- Comment on Iraq War was preceded by the largest worldwide non-violent protests in history and the war happened anyway. 5 weeks ago:
I was just recently informed of a podcast called “blowback” the other day on Lemmy and their first season actually goes into Iraq and the lead up to it. It’s a very good podcast for anyone interested in the topic of American intervention in other countries. Very well produced for the subject matter.
Long story short there was nothing that was going to stop us from going after Iraq. “We” wanted that for a long time and it’s not just a simple “cuz oil” thing.
- Comment on If we're living in a simulation, why would the simulation creators allow the sims to ponder and speculate whether or not they live in a simulation? 5 weeks ago:
Depends on the structure of the simulation. If it’s general enough then they didn’t specifically plan to have this capacity, it’s just the result of the inputs and constraints of the simulation.
