  • Good on you for making your own start. There are many nepos in construction who know fuck all about anything but think they're qualified to run crews.

    Truly, I think it shows real character to achieve what you have.

  • MAGA trolls outed as foreigners vanish from X after brutal update

    Jump

  • Maybe try not being followers who allow ourselves to be influenced. I think if you had described this social media situation to average people 20 years ago most would have seen it as dystopian, evil even. But because it happened so gradually it gained acceptance.

    I guess what I'm saying is we should get the hell rid of it all so eventually public opinion won't be swayed by cheap foreign labor, bots, and people who just want to burn it all down.

    But we won't because too many think all this is better than the world before it existed.

  • What's an unscientific opinion that you firmly hold?

  • Speed limits are set below actual safe speeds for roads to drive local government revenue through speeding tickets.

  • What's an unscientific opinion that you firmly hold?

    Jump

  • Seconded. The number of people who stay in the left lane at or below the speed limit, watching people pass them on the right to get by, is too damn high. I have no idea what possesses someone to do this but in my area there is no shortage of them.

  • Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to resign in January

    Jump

  • Makes me wonder if the trump reich had saved up some dirt on her prior to the public spat. Get out or we're using this kind of thing.

  • Just as You Feared—Life in Zohran Mamdani’s New York

    Jump

  • This is satire, for everyone who missed it. The first clue should have been humor in the url. If still in doubt, reading the article would have done the trick.

  • 'Stay tuned!' Trump announces new criminal probe into Epstein ties to Bill Clinton

    Jump

  • Buddy, nooooooobody thinks of Hilary to finish

    Do you think Trump will fall because of the new Epstein emails?

    Jump

  • Not just emails, it will take more than that.

    I have the smallest glimmer of hope that republicans will seize the chance to get the hell rid of him with the momentum around all this. Even if they tried and failed it would likely split them.

    But any type of progress would need some type of smoking gun, which we haven't yet seen.

    Am I being taken advantage of in Cambodia?

    Jump

  • Be realistic with yourself about what your stay at the family home implies to them. I don't mean that as a conclusion one way or the other. Tell them directly that this is a temporary situation, if that is what it is to you.

    And like another said, contraception unless you actually want a baby.

  • What is the most controversial TV finale?

    Jump

  • I like it since I learned that it ends so abruptly because the last POV is Tony's as he dies.

    That said, it whooshed nearly everyone who watched it and therefore pissed people off.

  • Whats the best voice acting in any video game?

    Jump

  • I don't play as many games as some of you, but Christopher Judge as Kratos is my favorite.

  • What was the stupidest road trip youve ever been on?

    Jump

  • The only thing that worried me was the ether. And I knew we'd be into that rotten stuff soon enough. Probably at the next gas station.

  • What turn of phrase do you hate?

    Jump

  • Fully agree, it contributes nothing but impotence. I make a habit of saying "we're stuck with this unless..."

    Sometimes change is impossible, but not nearly as often as this defeated little phrase gets thrown around.

  • 'Read' and its past tense are spelled the same. How should they be spelled?

    Jump

  • Indeed, I just blurted out the biggest association in my mind to the place

  • 'Read' and its past tense are spelled the same. How should they be spelled?

    Jump

  • On a different note there is Reading, a football club in UK, which is pronounced "Redding". This pronunciation is akin to the Reading Railroad from Monopoly (which I mispronounced all my life until today).

    Little details, picked up along the way.

  • Is Dune derivative?

    Jump

  • That makes sense. Dune itself had derivative elements, and since it was written many other works have lifted ideas from Dune.

    Similar to music from the 60s and other eras.

    I know I have my favorite versions of different works, and most often it's difficult to keep in mind that no art is definitely right or wrong. It's very hard to create something truly original.

  • Charlie Kirk shooter: Officials identify Tyler Robinson as suspect after arrest

    Jump

  • You mentioned placate after I said a shooting is bad strategy, so it was implied.

    Anyway I'm done with this. I don't think you discuss in good faith.

  • Charlie Kirk shooter: Officials identify Tyler Robinson as suspect after arrest

    Jump

  • Placate ≠ not killing anyone.

    True or not, the story is out that one of the casings had "“Hey fascists! Catch.” etched.

    It doesn't even matter if that's true. The shooting is done, and the crazier ones will think of it as a favor.

  • Charlie Kirk shooter: Officials identify Tyler Robinson as suspect after arrest

    Jump

  • You know how they like to milk things for years? Benghazi, Hunter's laptop, etc? To them this killing provides another justification along those lines.

    It's incredibly short sighted, and again while I really hope I'm wrong, actual good people may suffer and die for 'mah revenge'. Trump may even direct all media to ignore, or worse, celebrate if that happens.

    We all know they just want some reason to pull a trigger, and I think it's poor strategy to give one to them.
