The word my family uses for that is “mom”.
- Comment on And there was no on line manual 1 week ago:
When I was a kid, I got pissed at my dad for something and reset all the stations, thinking it would throw him for a loop. He noticed what I had done almost immediately, fixed them all in about 5-10 seconds and looked at me like I was stupid.
- Comment on As a human, here is my human take on unions 1 week ago:
When I was a union rep there would be people that would bitch about the $70 bucks a month or whatever the dues were. I would explain that without the union their pay would be far, far less (not even bringing up the benefits of work hours, vacation days and whatnot). Like the “all taxes are theft” morons, the words fell on deaf and willfully ignorant ears.
- Comment on Brazilian's impression on the united states(i have never been there and this is based on nothing) 3 weeks ago:
It was fun to spell aloud when I was 7.
- Comment on "The **Most open** Operating System" 3 weeks ago:
We, at least in the US, are living in a “post factual” world. So this makes perfect sense. Like when my kid was small and everytime he thought he “lost” at something he would declare it Opposite Day. Fuck it, why not? M$ being the most open OS makes no sense, so it makes total sense. War is Peace^tm^
- Comment on Damn it YouTube! 4 weeks ago:
They are also on here instead of reddit, so they are really in much more rarefied air.
- Comment on what can I use to cushion my knee when exercising with it on the floor so it doesn't hurt? 5 weeks ago:
Just search for “kneeling pad” or “gardening knee pad” and you’ll find a bunch of pretty durable options for around $10. Or, hell, just get a pair of skateboarding knee pads. You might not be the pinnacle of fashion, but your knees will be well protected.
- Comment on Is it really possible to tax the rich? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s fair. US mindset, I’m just still processing our shitshow.
- Comment on Is it really possible to tax the rich? 5 weeks ago:
Theoretically, sure. Pragmatically, we just elected a fascist insurrectionist, and it’s not going to happen in the near future.
- Comment on Filmmaker Oliver Stone on studios releasing older films on 4K Ultra HD 5 weeks ago:
Mosquito Coast is a classic for sure. I hardly ever see anyone mention Regarding Henry, and I don’t think I’ve met anyone in person who recognized the movie when I’ve mentioned it. That’s a solid recommendation!
- Comment on Filmmaker Oliver Stone on studios releasing older films on 4K Ultra HD 5 weeks ago:
I remember being blown away when I saw that movie when it was first released. Cruise actually showed some acting ability instead of just playing “Tom Cruise” as he has in most of his films.
- Comment on When was the last time a Republican Oresident left office with a good economy? 5 weeks ago:
Clinton left a booming economy and projections to reduce, if not eliminate, the national debt in 10 years. Then came another Bush. Bush left a shitty economy for Obama, through bullshit tax breaks for the rich during a time of bullshit military spending among other dumb actions. Obama fixed things. trump inherited a booming economy from Obama, and slowly (maybe quickly) ruined it through gross incompetence. Biden inherited a shit economy and inflation from that moron, trump. After dealing with fallout from stupid trump policies (that’s being generous), Biden managed to turn things around and the economy was once again doing pretty good. Now that dipshit trump will give his idiot voters and the rest of us another shitty economy that the next Dem will have to try to fix. The wheels on the bus go round and round.
- Comment on I'm not worried you're worried 1 month ago:
I’m in that country and can’t disagree. I was just paraphrasing the line from the Joker movie to a friend of mine,“We’re going to get exactly what we deserve.”
- Comment on What is your pet peeve in 2024? 1 month ago:
For me that is much more than a pet peeve.
- Comment on How a small but vocal minority of social media users distort reality and sow division 1 month ago:
I just went for the heavy use of blocking those types, and my experience on here has gotten way better. Otherwise, my user experience was just a fire hose of outrage and performative pearl clutching.
- Comment on Can Bash aliases be nested? 1 month ago:
Should work. Just try it out and see if you get what you want. I tried:
alias llaa='pwd && ll'then ran
llaaand it did what I expected, current directory and ‘ls -al’ which is aliased. - Comment on Why do some men dis other men who sit to pee? (& follow-up questions) 2 months ago:
I don’t know who y’all hang out with, but my friends for decades have given each other shit for anything we can possibly think of. It’s a form of male bonding.
- Comment on Oh Shit 2 months ago:
If I found out someone bugged my bathroom, I think I’d apologize for what they heard.
- Comment on Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future? 2 months ago:
Browsing responses here, you aren’t wrong.
- Comment on Let's gooo 2 months ago:
All in with the crabs.
- Comment on jealousy 2 months ago:
Jealousy-> ENVY - Comment on Has Google Search gotten so much worse in the last couple of weeks? 2 months ago:
I read on here (I think) a couple months ago that adding “before:2023” improves results a lot. I’ve found it to be true. Unless I’m looking for something specifically from the last couple years.
- Comment on Anon explains the 2nd amendment 2 months ago:
Article I Section 8 Clause 15 Calling Militias
To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;
I have no idea how the Constitution, which is so clear about the use of militia, has morphed into this fucked up 2A gunfucker bullshit.
- Comment on Falling Down (10/10) Movie CLIP - Fore! (1993) HD 2 months ago:
I remember going from “I totally get this guy” for the first half to “oh…crap, this guy is actually a nutcase shithead” by the end.
- Comment on Boeing strike could last ‘a while’; workers confident of higher wages, union says. 3 months ago:
Jokes on them workers! Boeing used all that excess cash they got by poor pay and shitty work to jack up their stock through stock buybacks. Which just helps out the rich. If you don’t know the subject, look up some articles. It’s almost universally seen as a pretty fucked up, economically, idea. It used to be illegal, as it is seen as market manipulation, but thanks to St. Reagan it came roaring back in '82. It also feels great that a lot of big companies receive gov’t help, and have used that money to buy back stock and give wealthy more money. Just another example of taxpayers subsidizing the rich.
- Comment on What started “weirdo” as a slur just recently? 3 months ago:
As I read somewhere recently, there is good weird and bad weird. You know which is which by how the target reacts. Almost all my friends are weird. Good weird. Except for Steve.
- Comment on ‘Hold them captive’: Australian billionaire boss aims to end staff going out for coffee 3 months ago:
I so love the idea of giving billionaires a plaque when they hit one billion, then take away 95% of their wealth and having them start again. A forced prestige system.
- Comment on 5 Reasons Why Bill Skarsgard's The Crow Remake Bombed At The Box Office 3 months ago:
No mention of how fucking good the original Crow soundtrack was.
- Comment on What is the safest way for a partially disabled person in the USA to use prison for food and shelter as an alternative to dying homeless in a gutter on a cold rainy night? 4 months ago:
My symptoms are similar to yours, if not quite so bad. I can’t walk more than about 50 yards, or stand for more than 10-15 minutes. I have tried for disability after my physical issues made me quit my job (after a couple of decades being a teacher for the same school district). I moved back in with my parents. Sucks to be in my 50s and stuck like this, but at least I have a roof over my head. I’m in north OC. There is zero help until you run out of all options and all money. It’s really fucked up. Good luck.

I just learned this the other month. It is so fucked up.
