In case of a car-jacking, obviously.

It really isn’t.

I block it every time it pops up, which is 5 or 6 times at this point. They all get banned eventually. I recommend using the report button as well.

Maria Bamford agrees.

Great blessings be upon you.

When they announce a world tour, I hope they clarify which world

I started to transcribe the tab of this for guitar but i started getting a metallic taste in my mouth and woke up in the middle of a corn field in 1947

LOL. Does not disappoint.

Awesome album. I’ve listened through twice since this was posted. I don’t know if it’s just my headphones, but the compression on the recording seems a bit much.

Because everything is awful.

Ham-fisted but accurate.

There’s thing thing called L’esprit_de_l’escalier where you think of the witty response too late. The thing is, those situations tend to pop up again, and if you’ve practiced it in your mind, you’ll be ready next time.

Also, listen to how stand-up comics deal with hecklers.

Read Douglas Adams. He has so many useful turns of phrases you can repurpose for any situation.

Fines are just a cost of doing business. There needs to be criminal charges and real consequences on the people making the decisions, and shutting down those generators until they meet regulations.

Could you post a link, please?

Good point, well made.

If they ever come to Brisbane I’ll be there.

I’d try it.

Dogs are the best people.

Love it! I discovered these guys only a couple of years ago and was surprised to learn they’ve been putting out shitloads of quality rock and roll since the early nineties. It’s appalling they’re not more widely known.

True, but most of them just don’t pay taxes. Musk actively takes money.

That’s what I prefer to call a pragmatist. ‘Centrist’ to me these days seems to more indicate indecisiveness. For what it’s worth, as a pragmatist, the conservative side of politics is pretty much never right.

They’re just going to do it again once a new AI model comes out they’re happy with.

… and an ironclad contract that’ll heavily penalise them for doing that.

Nothing will change until the USA reforms the education system from the ground up, and even then it’ll take a couple of generations at least. The owner class will resist that every step of the way.
