SuperDuper

Man I remember listening to that story of the museum heist on NPR. Ended up being like 15 minutes late to wherever I was supposed to be because I stayed in the car listening to the whole thing.

I don’t want any of those things

If you pay me $1,000,000 I will consume an entire pineapple, skin and all. This is my final offer.

You’ve already admitted that you have absolutely no plan for the consequences of your action. At best you’d doom us to a decades-long civil war like the Troubles in Ireland, at worst you’d doom us to live under an authoritarian regime led by an ultra violent strongman. Neither of those scenarios guarantee or even improve our odds of reaching solutions to the problems you’re trying to murder your way out of.

Your entire plan boils down to “kill a bunch of people now and we’ll maybe figure out how to deal with the fallout along the way” and yet it’s somehow everyone else who can’t see the forest past the trees.

To be clear, when you say people who have a conscience you’re talking about people who would slaughter those whose politics you personally, as judge jury and executioner, have deemed unacceptable?

You’re absolutely deranged, my guy.

When everyone you talk to is an asshole, you’re most likely the asshole. Your post and comment history is absolutely littered with violent rhetoric and you have a bad habit of angrily lashing out at anyone who disagrees with you, often resorting to childish name calling rather than engaging in meaningful conversation. It shows a complete inability to have a discussion outside of an echo chamber of your own personal view, which are squarely in an extreme end of the spectrum.

Perhaps the reason you can’t find a place where you can have a pragmatic discussion is because you yourself are incapable of having such a discussion, not that such places don’t exist. It’s like the old saying goes, “wherever you go, there you are.”

In related news, deplatforming fascists is effective and we should do so more frequently.

Henry Ford is also the reason kids learn square dancing in school. I actually had to learn how to dance like a hillbilly in gym class because some long-dead antisemite was once convinced that jazz music and the Charleston (read: black people and anything cultural that they contribute) would corrupt the youth, who could only be saved by the purity of barnyard dancing.

I don’t know how this contributes to the conversation at hand, but I think about it a lot.

“Will you endorse the man who tried to send an angry mob to hang you in order to stop the peaceful transition of power in the United States?”

“Probably not.”

It’s crazy that people are acting like this is some brave stance on pence’s part. Jesus, Republicans get to enjoy such a low bar for being praised.

It’s insane how low the bar is for Republicans to be given credit. Doing his job as VP and certifying a lawful election shouldn’t earn him any praise. Not endorsing the man who sent an angry mob to stop him from doing his job shouldn’t earn him any praise.

This is not a man who “grew a spine,” it’s a pile of wet napkins that got slightly more dry.

One problem is that there’s a massive upfront cost to get into VR as a consumer. Even the cheaper headsets are several hundred dollars, similar to a full console purchase. Which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, which means there isn’t as much of a market to produce games for, which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, etc etc etc.

On top of that, VR has the awkward problem of locomotion. Either you’re teleporting around the game world, getting motion sick moving around the game world, or standing in one place at all times. None of these options are ideal, and the only real solutions to this issue involve insanely pricy hardware purchases.

Maybe one day we’ll figure it out, maybe we’ll all be living in tubes playing games with our minds or whatever.

Quit.

The Office is a goofy workplace comedy when viewed through the lens of an audience member, but Michael Scott is an objectively terrible boss and a shitty person.

He’s constantly making comments that are racist, sexist, or otherwise ignorant and unacceptable in the workplace.

He can’t keep any information confidential, as seen when he outs Oscar for being gay.

He refuses to let anyone be “above him” such as when he ruins Phyllis’ wedding because her father made a great toast, or when he gets kicked out of the boat party for refusing to let the captain do his job.

“Oh but he cares so much about his employees! 🥺” No he doesn’t. That’s why he insists on making his employees tend to his slightly burnt foot instead of dealing with Dwight’s concussion. Oh, and let’s not forget the time he sabotaged Jim’s promotion by straight up slandering him to David Wallace.

I would rather be unemployed than working for such an insufferable man child like Michael Scott. The Office might be fun to watch, but it would be hell to live through it every weekday from 8-5.

Weirdly, the other half of millenials that do own homes weren’t asked at all, I guess they won’t have any useful input on how affordable homes are

This article is about how affordable homes are right now. The fact that I was able to purchase a home in 2019 is irrelevant because I’d be talking about market conditions that haven’t existed for several years.

And depression_now@lemmy.world

No, neither.

The only thing that makes creating an Instagram tempting is the fact that every single tattoo artist in the area seemingly uses Instagram exclusively to post their work, and you can only scroll through so many posts without an account. Makes it very frustrating to research potential artists.

A few drinks deep is a good way to watch, in my opinion.

I see you’ve met my boy Bobby

Freeze 'em, starve 'em, shoot 'em…

But for the love of God, do not under any circumstances educate them!

Sometimes you just want to watch better call saul and there’s nothing more to it.
