In my mind, this is the only correct backdrop for that bowl.

It’s why taxes were invented. Nothing gives currency value as being beaten by not giving it back to the king’s men.
- Comment on US Elections question: Bernie Sanders said that the Democrats abandoned the working class, and the working class abandoned them. How is this true? 2 weeks ago:
That’s probably the perception. Democrats have been in power for 4 years, things didn’t get better for a lot of people and then they say to vote for them for more of the same. Surprisingly that doesn’t help with voter enthusiasm. They’ll have more chance next time with messaging things won’t get worse with them after Trump mishandled stuff.

Simple, good-sounding things they want to hear is what wins elections these days.

There are plenty other wacko ways people got themselves in the hospital if that’s your kink. The one with the girl that overdosed on gummies because she wanted spicy food was fun.

Sounds like a good time to rewatch the Tom Scott video about timezones and the descent into madness again

- Comment on This hair product remains effective up to 230 degrees C which is really handy because when I'm exposed to ovenlike temperatures, my first thought is "Oh no, my hair!" 2 weeks ago:
That’s when you hear yelling in a Scottish accent: “She can’t take any more if this.”

More fun, they have no butthole or a peehole. It’s a cloaca, what is basically the combination of both and what comes out of it is also the combination of both. Dinosaurs were built the same way.
- Comment on This picture goes hard. 3 weeks ago:
It’s the same kind of energy like the usual “the grant parents built the business, the parents expanded it and the children ran it into the ground”
Or even the theory of empires falling. The first generations establish the empire and make it wealthy, over the next generations people get greedy and decadent, infighting starts and the whole thing collapses. Some say this is happening right now to an empire in all but name.

My buddy wanted to see Bruce Almighty. He got Mighty Bruce. I guess the main character was also divine, in a certain way.

It’s not insane, just very classist

- Comment on Stress is relative 1 month ago:
That kind of stuff always reminds me of an episode from a show about rich people. They showed a rich mother organizing a birthday party for her toddler that was ridiculously fancy and having a complete meltdown because some napkins were another shade of pink. That’s the worst that life has ever given her, a different shade of napkins.
- Comment on Why does the media print rags to riches stories? 1 month ago:
It’s pretty common that angry revolutionaries are used by another rich bastard to get into power by usurping the movement. The classic “meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”

Soylent Green is a lie anyway. Your need to “soylentify” half they population to feed the other half every year if it would be there only source of calories.
- Comment on Tesla workers in Germany complain about home visits from their bosses 1 month ago:
How bad of a manager can you be to not understand this?
It’s a factory owned by Musk, so power tripping, being abusive and borderline illegal behavior is baked into the business model, probably including a furious Musk visiting from time to time to shout at management he wants results by tomorrow and does not want to hear any excuses. And that’s how shit flows downstream and pressure is put onto the line workers, and the good managers shut up and find another employer to work for.

The same thing with things like Stonehenge. I liked the theory that said these types of constructions are the result of the prehistoric version of Burning Man, where they built it just because they could as an art installation.

Whatever Israel is doing can just be added to the United States. In the end, Israel is just the guard dog “defending democracy” in the Middle East. A somewhat rabid guard dog, but still owned and fed by the US.
- Comment on Do remote workers actually work? Yes, but they also shop and shower 2 months ago:
Because telling your manager that this (online or in office) meeting is useless for you always works out great. /s Very often there is a discussion between two people and the rest are just spectators, but leaving is disrespectful.
- Comment on Do remote workers actually work? Yes, but they also shop and shower 2 months ago:
Most bosses equate having fun with not working and so not having fun with being productive. However, most workers are in a twilight state of not having fun and not being productive.

Rinse? With the modern machines it’s an elaborate cleaning out the grounds or capsules, refilling water, carefully taking the tray with spills to the sink to empty and maybe checking milk too.
