Well that oughta do it!

It’s insane the consistency with which the younger generations are constantly blamed for the inequalities put in place and reinforced by older generations. I feel comforted by the fact that I’m not falling into this trap even though I’m in my forties now.

General strike

Movie’s good!

I would be seriously surprised if Steam even realized Amazon considered themselves a competitor. Wild that know-nothing ass clowns get to burn millions on idiotic ideas while actual experts battle with low wages and imposter syndrome.

This… was a really hard truth to accept, for me…

Wut

I even searched before posting and I couldn’t find it!!! Thank you!

If this has happened you are legally obligated to tell me because i need to read that like yesterday.

Like, I dunno man, I know it’s a comedy show, but the McElroy boys kind of stumbled into what sounds like the coolest fucking Batman story ever. Hell and the literal power of resurrection canonically exist in the DCU so, Batman could absolutely go to hell to beat ass, and come back pissed off.

This widespread idea of “you have to use our software/attend our event/buy our product/ use ai” is so wild. Like no. Make a product people want to use, host an event people want to attend, you can’t force customers to engage… insanity

Yes thank you! My wife was offended I laughed so hard at that.

Best intro for sure.

“Need” is such a strong word.

I live in one of the least affordable places in the country and it’s not even that we need workers at fancy little restaurants, it’s that we need people to work at McDonald’s. They expect these severely underpaid workers to serve them and also simply not exist outside the context of their labor.

It would be reasonable to assume grok would prioritize posts written by grok, wouldn’t it? So the possibility exists of twitter becoming 100% an echo chamber of AI surfacing posts written by AI and zero real users contributing or viewing content and advertising. The dead internet.

I thought the government was shut down.

Like, thanks I guess, but I want my Honda Accord back dude.

This is how I feel every time I have to sit through a land acknowledgement at some state event in CA. It’s like you stole someone’s car, and you drive it up to their house every day and go “Hey Doug, just wanted to acknowledge that I stole your car.” And then you drive off.

Sometimes a person wants to see NSFW posts and sometimes they don’t - the people around, the mood they’re in, whatever. If Pose Ref photos get the same tag as truly NSFW posts then many times people just won’t take the risk! We’re supposed to have more control over what we see, but we have less.

Your posts shouldn’t be penalized in this way, it’s stupid. Also the biggest reason the over aggressive tagging sucks from a user perspective is that it ends up having the opposite of the intended effect - the user has less ability to control what they see!

At the Mountains of Madness… sigh…

Intergalactic Space Warrior Samus for the iam8bit 20th anniversary art show.

I dreamt I saw Austin Walker out in public and was so excited, then I immediately remember our relationship is para-social and wholly one sided and I did not say hi to him out of fear of seeming weird. Even in dreams I’m socially awkward.

In both versions he’s staring down at his hands! They can’t even keep their own premise straight!

Because he’s starting at his phone in this version he doesn’t bump into that woman, they don’t date, marry, etc. The silliest part of the whole video is that in the original version with the happy ending - the man is staring at a piece of paper in his hand with the address written on it.

Once my father-in-law showed a video he felt was profound. A man is out walking and bumps into a woman and asks for directions, she helps him, they date, marry build a life together, yada yada yada. The video rewinds and this time the man is staring down at his phone (continued)

Holy shit they stabbed her to death with phones? Or over the phone? That’s crazy man. Fucking shitbag capitalizing on the death of a child to push an agenda.

Hey um. Holy shit. Very nice

Hey AP if there’s a ceasefire and someone fires, that’s called breaking the ceasefire. WTF.
