It’s awe inspiring to contemplate the evolutionary path that these majestic creatures have followed to end up living their best life in the sky, stunning vistas as far as the eye can see, lounging carelessly and being waited upon by their human manservant.

feels a lot like early Reddit. Just need more active users.

Which will, ironically, ruin it.

And here I am, I don’t really like pop and I don’t really like metal but put them together and I’m in heaven.

And yet, what you wrote is coherent and what he wrote is not.

But of all the drugs I’ve ever done, nicotine is the only one where I still want it.

Yeah, you smell that secondhand smoke and no matter how many years it’s been, it’s got that magnetic appeal, like the smell of a nicely seared steak.

They’ve had a hardon for public broadcasting for thirty years, which is why NPR and PBS have been preparing for this and why their funding largely doesn’t come from the feds anymore. It’s a hollow victory, it’s just depressing because anymore, it seems the right gets everything they want. They get it all. All of it. And we get nothing.

I wonder why we aren’t getting the typical bullshit fluff piece this time.

Showerthought: mf is mezzo-forte. ff shouldn’t be fortissimo, it should be fezzo-forte.

Somebody in another thread took an interesting guess. It’s the kind of phrase you’ll find in legal demand letters and lawsuit notices and Christ knows he’s seen plenty of those. The phrase him feel weak so he uses it now because he wants to make others feel weak.

Damned if that doesn’t seem like a legit take to me.

I don’t think you actually read what I wrote.

I feel like everybody is going to regret all this gloating when they release the list and it contains only Bill Clinton, George Soros, Obama, AOC, Mamdani, etc along with every lefty influencer and anyone who made a comment on reddit in support of Luigi Mangione. Some of the people on the list won’t even have been born when Epstein Island was in full swing, but it won’t matter, MAGA will swallow it whole and demand executions because of course they will.

Ah yes, dihydrogen monoxide

If people are really dumb enough to eat this up, we’re fucked.

I’ve got some really bad news for you.

It costs nothing to shut the fuck up.

Trump is an asset too, or he has been historically. It makes me wonder what’s changed that Putin’s lesser proxies are having to go against the god-king. I seriously don’t know what’s up or down anymore.

Edit: I feel like this is all being wound up on purpose. I don’t know what the endgame is. None of it makes any fucking sense.

There are almost zero walkable places in Florida. They don’t believe in sidewalks by and large. You will only find sidewalks at city centers, if I had to guess I’d say easily less than 10% of areas where you would expect there to be sidewalks actually have any. Just google “typical florida residential area” and look at images, here’s one of the first I came upon: there’s driveways and road, that’s it. Of course, there’s nothing within walking distance anyway - but they really embrace it in Florida.

I came here to post a screed a bit like this, but you did it so eloquently I don’t have to, so thanks! A perfect take, imo.

Not quite free, you have to give it your phone number.

Rule of thumb: the more something is advertised, the more shit it is for one reason or another, and you’ll do well to avoid it altogether. When I’m advising people on contractors, my number 1 rule is: if they’re on TV, they’re criminals, I promise you.

Interesting to note that this granite is actually called Galaxy Black with the name dating back to its first commercial discovery and quarrying in India long about 1982-1985, and yet the Hubble Deep Field image was taken in 1995.
