A reference that may help in casting his replacement This is Kang

Carefully preparing homemade food for an animal that eagerly eats any literal feces that it finds... thats next level. I'm not even making fun of you. Theres something special about that. Caring so much for a pet even though the object of your affection doesnt give a shit and would be just as...

The second it can produce a tweet on its own, and someone can screenshot the tweet. This isnt a snarky smartass comment. Its the precise answer to your question.

Every job thats purely paperwork & minor logistics like this is gonna be replaced by LLMs and other robots and its gonna be hilarious. If the only reason your job exists is to facilitate paperwork, your job doesnt deserve to exist and I can't wait til that day arrives.

That was an afterthought, but you sure loved to jump on it like it was the main argument. We can stick with civil wars in the modern era if you like. Out of the last lets say 5-10 civil wars that have happened on planet earth, how many of them saw a foreign country invading in response? I...

The proposition was not that Europe would support one side or the other financially. The proposition was a boots on the ground invasion of American would definitely 100% happen in the event of a civil war. The best I'm getting in response is "ok its not something that happens normally but this...

I guess thats it, now that you mention it WTF why isnt it on a chopping block. I also think the axe handle is shorter than normal. Its just weird to watch, its like he's bowing to the wood after each swing. Use your arms bro, its not yoga

You keep insisting on this. Shall I assume that if we look up lets say, the last half a dozen or so civil wars that happened worldwide, would we find that in each case "their enemies immediately invaded?" I don't feel like playing wikipedia tag, but I'm pretty sure thats not the case. If we...

Thats an interesting idea. I split a lot of wood, I'm gonna have to try that. With that said, WTF is wrong with the dude in the video? He bends over on each chop like he's made out of spaghetti. Dudes gonna destroy his back. But also, WTF why? Is the axe too short for a normal chopping motion...

IMO you've got to be far enough away from the nearest city that *finding* you is an issue. Keep in mind they're not gonna have maps on their iPhones. If you're on a main road within an hour of a city you're in for some unpleasant visitors in the no-internet apocalypse. If you're on some dirt...

This is all true. But its about the transition. I think rural people currently doing small scale farming are gonna have a waaay easier transition to subsistence living, and a better probability of success, than the dude in the 14th floor apartment 2 blocks away from the place where the first...

Why do ‘gate lice’ line up early for a flight? Psychologists explain. https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/why-do-gate-lice-line-up-early-for-a-flight-psychologists-explain The entire problem exists only because some passengers are assholes and all airlines allow it. You only get the overhead...

Fuck Gophers. Little pieces of shit. I shot a couple this summer but apparently this just stimulated them to fuck more, cause now I swear we've got twice as many. Scientists need to stop working on this deextinction bullshit and focus on extinction. Fuck gophers, they need to not exist...

Look, if nepotism is the only way we get to cast white actors for white characters, I'm 100% ok with it

200 acres and no well? I know what my first priority would be. Not to trivialize the time or expense of drilling a well. But its water.

Hell, they're paying extra to have that thing delivered.

Its 2023 and we still have autists who complain about "threads getting derailed". Particularly on a forum that has taken the odd and perplexing moderating decision that all political talk gets crammed into a single 80 billion page long thread, all race talk into another 80 billion page long...

I dont disagree with you in this case about what should be. I'm just pointing out the compelling interest of the universities themselves. You didnt address my point, that all businesses want to sell more and more of their product each year. Universities are no different and I don't see how they...

None of your examples are even close to the same thing. You can order your fast food by speaking out loud and handing the dude your money. You chose to instead download some special software onto your mobile device and give it access to all your personal info, for a $0.50 coupon off some...

This is absolutely true and its one of the top 3 problems with the modern educational system. It will also never change. Try telling any business it needs to sell its product to fewer people next year, and even fewer the year after that.

I specifically took five English Lit type classes (don't recall their exact titles) because they counted toward whatever bullshit category I needed to fill, and I find that kind of class to be the easiest zero effort A. Read a book and have some opinion about it, versus other bullshit...

If youre downloading and using those apps you're part of the problem and deserve every bit of what you get.

I learned sometime in the early 2000s that milquetoast middle of the road posts are useless, generate no discussion, and are generally a waste of time for the writer and the reader. I'm not gonna bother posting unless its something I have a strong opinion about. I mean, why bother?

Some of us don't need an electronic device to remind us we need to get up. I literally havent used one in something like 20 years, and I wake up at exactly the same time every day (5 AM in my case) Imagine being non-functional, unable to do basic things like get out of bed by yourself, and then...

Its amazing anyone could look at the educational system in the US and conclude the general non-subject-related courses arent a complete fucking waste of time. Even funnier coming from a committed leftist like Mist, since this is a US centric thing. Canadian and European systems are almost...

Fair point on the 17 year olds. Didnt realize that cause I didnt get mine til 18. Not sure I can agree on the socialization being a difference. People are socialized into all kinds of purchases. Socialization is the reason people buy new cars instead of functionally equivelent used cars...

I'm not watching any anime shit but this has been an ongoing problems for a few years now. Read about something that people enjoyed watching with their kids. Watch it myself, and get horrified at what people are watching with their kids. Its really not complicated. Sex, nudity, and gay shit...

Kids? We're talking about adults who sign legally binding contracts. I don't disagree with your characterization of the universities' role in this. But lets be honest about the "victims" here. If that same young adult gets saddled with debt from other stupid decisions, like buying a new car...

Certainly if we found an organism using a different set of bases, or encoding amino acids with different codons, itd be proof of aliens. Its worth thinking about how DNA sequencing works, though. Any base that base paired with C would be read as a G, even if it was chemically different...

You mean the bag? You couldnt think of the word "bag"? And failing to find that word, you came up with "produce sleeve thing from the rollers they provide"? I'm not rustled and I'm not trying to make fun of you. Its just that I have never met an extraterrestrial before and would like to know...

umm yeah thats exactly what I was commenting about. Its bizarre that such a dogshit movie did better financially.

Besides, nobody gets to opt out of taxes they disagree with. In that system, why would anyone choose to opt out of the occasional benefit they might qualify for? Itd be one thing if you could opt out of both ends, but if I'm paying when they say I have to pay, I'm damn sure collecting my check...

This is exactly what let me get 100% of mine forgiven early this year (PSLF program). I think theres a cap in place now but I got all mine wiped out. >60k Sometimes clown world takes your money, sometimes you eat the bear.

What a crazy chart. The Incredible Hulk was waaaay better than that chart would suggest. And The Eternals was waaaaay worse. Fuck, Eternals was way worse than The Flash. Even with the pedo freak playing the Flash.

I dont really understand this gag. If they were 30% unknown species whats the other 70%? If they were aliens theyd be 100% unknown species. Are they like trying to make it more believable or something by using a lower number? It ends up just making no sense

Yes, thats my conclusion too. All the saturated fat, cholesterol, and red meat correlations turn out to be caused by diets without enough fiber.

That "go vegan to live longer" thing is such bullshit. the data are very weak on the subject. On the other hand, we have exceptionally strong evidence that you can live longer by eating a particular diet. Cut your total calories by about 20% and you'll live like an extra 10 years or some...

It starts off like youre disagreeing with me but thats exactly my point. Every version they've shown us is completely unintimidating. Compare that vs the first shots of Thanos. And its still a dumb take that the Kang who defeated all the other Kangs would be completely nonthreatening. I get...

Yeah, I said it when Kang showed up in Loki S1 with all the gravitas of Theo Huxtable. "This guy's supposed to be the next big bad?" People got all uppity about how "but this version isnt supposed to be intimidating!" (the version that defeated all the others. is not supposed to be...

Well, theres two ways to go with that tweet. 1. A bunch of millionaires are calling themselves middle class, but they're obviously wrong and we should make fun of them 2. A bunch of millionaires are calling themselves middle class and acktually, technically, heres how they really are middle...
