  • What the fuck is wrong with kids listening to their shitty parents?

    /I know a lot of people get raised wrong in households that teach them wrong things and it takes a lot of effort to get better, but... it's pretty astounding to me to imagine someone listening to their parents tell them that Donald fucking Trump is a Cool Guy.

  • Kirk was described by one of his peers at the Academy as "a pile of textbooks with legs."

    Picard got stabbed in the heart during a game of space pool and had a laugh about it.

    Kirk barely survived encountering Trelane by getting Trelane's parents involved.

    Picard tangled with Q on a regular basis and continually maintained the respect and admiration of a nigh-omnipotent being.

    Kirk fucked around.

    Picard fucked hard.

    1. Tater tots are basically an entire potential meal of their own. Not a French fry, but I may actually prefer them as a possible main dish.
    2. The best French fries. They are the perfect side.
    3. If you want to fancy it up a bit. Suitable for formal occasions.
    4. Taking the one-dimensional line of the French fry and extrapolating it out to two dimensions. Still a good ketchup conveyance, but starting to get into the issue I'm going to bring up with...

    5, 6, 7. Not a good enough ratio of crispy outer fried surface to gooey potato inner. I prefer crisp, but when I bite one of these, I have a good chance of just getting a mouthful of scalding hot potato napalm, or what's worse, cold potato cement. Not ideal.

    '8. Yeccch.

  • Well, thankfully we made NASCAR stop using leaded fuel way back in [checks notes] fucking 2007?! Holeee shiiit.

  • What are interesting and entertaining podcasts to listen to? [English, French, Italian]

    Jump

  • You Made It Weird, with Pete Holmes. Really fucking funny comedian Pete has had lots of interesting guests. Usually starts with relatively normal stuff, but usually by the end of any given episode he gets into "Do you believe in God?", "What do you think happens when we die?", and "You ever do ayahuasca?" territory. Pete is SMART and has been going on his own spiritual and philosophical journey for a while, and it feels like every guest is another step on that journey. Look up the episode list and find someone you like and listen to their conversation.

  • How many friends does it take to pay off a gambling debt?

    Jump

  • Catra would never try to use the power of friendship to pay off gambling debt.

    She'd either cheat at gambling so as to win big, or she'd run up a bunch of debt and then leave Scorpia holding the bag, with the possible long-term consequence of having to burn down the casino.

    I was watching Labyrinth on a loop as a young boy, and I thought David Bowie was awesome, but I turned out... more or less straight. Mostly. Pretty much. I mean, of course Bowie is gorgeous, I'm not an idiot.

  • Trump urges Senate GOP to overrule parliamentarian

    Jump

  • I'm so fucking sick of people complaining about what the Democrats should have done years ago when the Republicans have been actively disassembling this country for my entire adult life, and are really getting down to the "rip out the wiring and sell it for scrap copper" phase.

  • My uncle was a small-herd fairy farmer my entire life. Never had more than a couple dozen cows at a time, always knew all of them by name. He kept on getting squeezed out by larger and larger operations. He eventually went grass-fed organic to try and stay competitive. Then he told me that the large operations have organic mini-farms that they operate. The cows there are kept organic... but only so long as they remain in perfect health. The instant one gets sick, she gets moved over to the bigger factory operation and is pumped full of all the antibiotics that all the rest are kept on.

    So, while my uncle is keeping a small herd and who has both financial and moral reasons for wanting to maintain his cows that way, a large factory farm can maintain a nominal organic operation, undercutting small fries like my uncle, but actually only keeping their cows organic for exactly as long as it's convenient, and not a moment longer.

    My uncle is retired now, but it hurt me to hear him tell that story. We ought to care about small family farms, but we keep letting capitalist "efficiency" turn every aspect of life on Earth into a market-optimized hellscape.
