Lmao this guy thinks hard work is what makes people rich instead of massive amounts of exploitation in an inherently exploitative economic system…

As I keep telling people, they keep saying “DEI” because even most Bible belt folks get uncomfortable when you drop the hard R they really want to say.

Old people and overreacting to normal things because new ideas are scary and confusing

Name a more iconic duo

Her logic IS undeniable.

Ah yes, that pursuit and sharing of knowledge known as “paying a shitload of money for the privilege of making a company that ultimately provides nothing of value some extra cash”

I didn’t know ml is cool with ultracapitalism as long as it’s under the veneer of knawlege.

Every single part of this comment just screams “It just wouldn’t be proper!”

And I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to care about what’s “proper” when half my friends now have reasonable fear for their lives, not just “comfort of living” just because they are lgbtq+ living in deep red country.

The only celebrating I do is eating slightly more unhealthy, take the day off work unless it’s going to be a short day, and maybe look to see if any games in my “maybe if it’s on steep sale” list are on sale.

That’s it.

I don’t remind people, I dont expect anyone to remember, but it’s nice when they do.

My excuse for missing people’s birthdays is I DO know the date… I just don’t know what the date today is. Sure I know my sister was born on the 12th, but that doesn’t matter if I think today is the 10th and it’s actually the 15th…

So if I have that much problem, it wouldn’t be very chill to be upset with others for missing mine.

As someone who paid enough attention in highschool chemistry to get a B, and occasionally watches Nile(red/blue) and E&I videos… I know some of these words/symbols!

Not even a little. I went out in shorts and a t-shirt for about an hour, exchanged banal pleasantries with family until my anxiety got the better of me and I had to leave, sat in a room with no windows watching old shows and snacking, and am waiting until exhaustion allows me to sleep a couple hours until I go to work on one of the two days remaining on my schedule. After that I might not have any work for months unless I can find something close by that doesn’t make me legitimately contemplate things. I have a broken tooth, some kind of respiratory thing going on, and an unmentionable medical issue that really needs to be seen by a doctor but I can’t afford one and my government insurance was denied because I made a couple thousand more this year than last year.

On the bright side, my truck is finally working again and assuming the now-slowly-leaking-while-on fuel pump doesn’t catch a spark before I can afford to have it replaced I don’t have to share a car this week. Which is nice.

I found out the Shrike likes to impale it’s victims on spikes thorns and sticks for later consumption.

I was trying to find information on the romulan Shrike.

Both are pretty metal.

Humans never change.

Romans carved and painted grafitti on plenty of things over the centuries they were around.

Let the silly gooses be goofy goobers, I say. Maybe humans in 1500 years will have a chuckle.

If it hasn’t met another living creature in 14,000 years, can it really say it’s the baddest thing around?

Sure it says it could kick my ass, but if it’s so confident why doesn’t it come up here and prove it? Bitch ass horror from the deep…

Dark Souls cleared this up for me real quick.

Having done exactly 0 research, I going to assume it’s one of those “DO NOT PRESS OKAY UNLESS YOU ARE EXPERIENCED AND KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING” and someone went “pffft I know what I’m doing. click now what does this option do…”

I’m thinking of River Tam, from Firefly.

Whether she can or can’t do that is still debatable, but she did tell Jayne she could. And she can read minds, so it’s not entirely out of the question…

And she can kill you with her brain.

It’s the “Burning other magic rocks” party.

There’s a reason every science team down there has someone carrying a gun.

They know what lies in the deep.

For OTHERS, yes. But many want the cutting edge for themselves, at no cost to themselves.
