It’s a nice thought, but even useless people have money. Just think of the last 50 dumbasses you talked to, almost all of them at least had some pocket change, and it’s likely that at least a half-dozen were moderately successful.

I’m not saying it’s reasonable per se, just that it’s not as rare as one might hope. People have been killed for much less all throughout history.

Was it? Ooh damn, that fits the profile to a “T” then. I don’t follow celebrity news, I guess that she’s a pretty staunch/vocal supporter of LGBT+ issues?

Valid point, I guess, but it’s not exactly the internet specifically that’s the source of the issue IMO. I’d say that people hating specific musicians whose music they don’t like/annoys them has been an issue for aeons, but it’s harder to completely escape their tunes now that it’s played practically everywhere 24/7 - mall PAs, the cell phones of people passing you in the street, etc.

The 'net is just the most recent forum to gripe about how annoying so-and-so’s music is, although in a sense it seems to have gotten more extreme in the vacuum provided by online forums. It would take quite a bit for a conversation about an annoying lutist, opera diva, etc. to escalate to plans for murder in the 1st-19th centuries by comparison, despite it presumably happening a few times probably.

You keep your go-kart in a moonshine shack?

I wonder if he’ll fabricate some fish-shaped waffle maker molds next as tribute to Bungeo Bbang from Korea?

Quite right, they would seem to be jumping the gun if this were done to support the mandate of DOGE or State AG’s & Senators. This concentration of power certainly isn’t at all accidental - very much a strategic consolidation of authority needed to enact their policies without substantial legal resistance. @AcidicBasicGlitch@lemm.ee

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d thought that the U.S. Government could seize the assets for enemy foreign nations and citizens during times of war, no? Isn’t this redundant?

If the pay is shit, the work is shit, the colleagues are shit, and the boss is an entitled prick, there’s no fucking way I’m motivated, and no fucking way am I gonna work hard.

Giving me flashbacks to one of the worst jobs I ever had years and years ago. Within five years of leaving, all but two members of the most toxic team I’d ever worked with had quit, and the CEO had twice relocated the main office to cheaper and smaller buildings (I presume because of a drop in revenue). He treated them like shit, and they all passed it on down to new hires, effectively destroying employee morale from the top down. What a miserable crab bucket of a job.

“Frig off, Debrah!”

Did not have this on my 2025 Bingo… it’s a strange twist.

Millennial? No we don’t we were there the whole time…

Solid pick, she’ll treat you right.

They’re handsome trucks, you should find a buyer eventually. What did you snag as a daily driver instead though?

Oh yeah, the TR-6’s are spiffy AF. It’s not too late to open a dental practice if you want an E-type though :p

TBH, I’m glad to see so many on the road now that I’m seeing fewer MGBs. The Miata’s a worthy successor to foreign-auto roadster: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MG_MGB

I read through their new posts and “strategies” frequently, mostly out of a sort of morbid fascination, but also a desire to protect myself from men.

Sound advice, it’s useful to recognize the bullshit lingo & rhetoric that’s all a part of these idiotic schemes (see: “Pickup Artists”). I realized that one of my acquaintances had started slipping those catchphrases into convos years ago, and it caught me off guard. They hadn’t seemed like much of an asshole before, but it raised my hackles knowing that they weren’t just reviewing the media, but integrating it into their personality/beliefs without any sort of filter.
