I don’t think that’s tinfoil hat at all. I mean it seems like a very logical explanation and the same thoughts I had when I was watching it happen.

I still remember when Hillary went to Obama before conceding and most were speculating it was going to be about a cabinet position and her running after Obama did.

Excuse me, we had to go with the obvious choice that would win /s

I think the looking I do with manual controls is a quick glimpse to put my hand on the control. After that, I can adjust while keeping my eyes on the road.

I find with digital that I stare at it during the entire adjustment period.

Subscriptions do need to die though. Especially car subscriptions.

I dunno, I follow some political, rap, and basketball YouTubers and they all use Twitter. I’d much rather them use Bluesky or Threads. I think Mastodon would probably be best but so far, anything’s better than Twitter.

I had a friend that voted for Brexit. When I asked him why, he said that his grandfather was able to buy a house and take care of his family on his salary. His father was able to do the same. He said, these immigrants come in and live two families to a house and are willing to work for far less. He said, I don’t want that type of future for myself.

No amount of telling him that – the people that caused this issue are also benefitting from Brexit – could convince him.

Was weird because I wasn’t an immigrant but my family was and he was cool with me.

I worked for a major investment bank and one of their exotics trading teams was basically all add-ons and stuff built on top of Excel.

To be fair, the traders looked like Wizards using it, it was pretty neat.

I don’t know if I’d trust any of the text around it until we see more … the picture doesn’t seem like it matches at all.

I mean, you can downvote me but the text seems utterly ridiculous. If it’s real then you guys are right, but it certainly doesn’t seem like a believable story.

Yes, that’s exactly what happened. Except it didn’t and science isn’t based on your feelings on an unsubstantiated anecdote and even IF it were real, real scientists with real brains are gonna figure this out. Not you.

He sounded so pathetic trying to rebut with that.

I was gonna make a joke that it’s also an idea that’s on so many street corners and coffee cups. However after googling I found out that it’s a siren on the Starbucks logo and not a mermaid. My joke fails on both humour and fact.

Anyone who thinks this is just a Trump thing is insane. It doesn’t end with him. The entire system needs to be purged of this corruption.

I think on the third rewatch I noticed that the first line of the diary had a different meaning:

::: spoiler !“We were two young men at the start of a great career. Two young men devoted to an illusion. Two young men who never intended to hurt anyone.” :::

Oh I use the website on my phone. Keeps asking me to spin Some stupid wheel though.

I don’t think we could have made the progress with smoking in the US now like we did back then. Would have turned into a partisan issue about freedoms and all that.

He killed himself in 2019 while awaiting trial.

He died in 2019 while awaiting trial.

I haven’t been paying attention to the Republicans right now but are they doing that? I don’t remember much condemnation from them after Nancy Pelosi’s husband got violently attacked. Not even talking about Trump calling the media the enemy and all the regular death threats AOC and Ilham Ohmar get. I don’t hear them telling their cult members that violence isn’t the answer.

I’ve defended Chappelle a lot, seen him four times live in London UK. I’ve liked a lot of work and specials. However there’s some stupid fascination with hurting trans people and I can’t do it no more… Him bringing Musk onstage was a “fuck em” moment for me.

I hear James Ancaster anytime I hear anyone complaining about trans people or wokeness: https://youtu.be/adh0KGmgmQw

How dare they use their privilege to bring attention to the greatest threat to humanity…

Bread and circuses. My Ford supporting friends will point to these small things as if these are the issues that really matter.

I know it’s absolute schlock but I’d give anything to watch Infinity War for the first time again.

I just loved it and still do but man …
