It’s not that nobody wants to talk about it.

It’s that nobody wants to listen.

We can put King of the Hill in that camp as well I think.

I think it’s a better and more rounded show than any of them.

If NK had enough bribery money, FIFA would already have had it there…

The last two were in Russia and Qatar. A pattern has already formed.

What mine shows me is mostly racism and xenophobia. I mean, they know I’m white. Figured they might as well just shoot their shot.

Meanwhile it’s utterly terrible at the one thing it’s supposed to do. I’m got a few old friends and family members on there. Not super close or anything, but the kind of people you’d be vaguely interested in seeing if they had cancer or had babies or anything. Didn’t show me those events at all.

Like, what is even the point of it other than a US far-right psy-op?

You’ll be sending a lot of phones back then…

You’ll might as well be asking for a LP turntable to be included at this point.

You don’t need a budget, just a crippling sense of guilt about spending money on anything other than the absolute essentials…

Because don’t you know that boat people are the cause of all our problems, and we’ll be able to save the NHS only if we lower taxes, and if only we got right of the Human Rights Act, we’d be able to save the sainted homeless veterans.

OK, and Discord, Facebook, etc? Or do they just lobby better?

I’d agree but they already did that. They seemed to have spent far more care and attention protecting the rapists than the rapees.

I don’t have a massive amount of love for Valve (I like physical copies of my games, damn you), but patent trolls can go fuck themselves with a rusty pickaxe.

Especially over a patent as nebulous as this:

“System and method for storing broadcast content in a cloud-based computing environment”

Motherfucker, that’s called a “file”.

Hey guys, I know you made really good remasters of classic single-player games, but can you make us something nobody on this motherfucking Earth asked for?

Oh wait, we don’t want you do do that any more.

Why aren’t you making us any money?

Well maybe, but only if they owned the infrastructure themselves.

As it stands, the price paid to renewable energy suppliers tracks the amount paid to fossil fuel suppliers.

There’s a reason every farmer wants to fill their fields with solar panels, and it’s got little to do with making electricity cheaper for the end user.

That said, there’s no reason not to do it anyway, at least if we want more than a few more hundred years of humanity. A tough ask in a time where every decision is made based on an election that happens in the next 4 years by people who won’t live another 20.

Oh, it’s not being a massive nonce they got him for. It was leaking information.

Which is presumably why Epstein let him fly in and have a go on his girl collection in the first place.

We’re hitting the point where fucking the kids is OK, but paying for it isn’t.

Even the aliens have been to the Epstein Islands.

I’ve been recently rewatching all the X-men movies in order on Disney+.

After each one it’s like “why not watch the first one again?” like it doesn’t know full well I watched it a few days ago.

All this data collection, and for what?

Grizzlies sounds like a bear specific version of Grindr.

Maybe you just notice the Fords more because they’re all monster trucks these days.

The UK is a non-EU country.

:(

Wow, thank goodness nobody gutted the authority in charge of making sure that wouldn’t happen…
