This is funny. I live in an area that’s pretty remote, and my internet speed is sometimes very shit, so I never realized I’m getting fucked on my picture quality by using firefox.

It might be quicker to list the subreddits where this doesn’t happen

(Lookin at you, r/stardewvalley)

Which Rock movies aren’t shite? I recall enjoying the Rundown, but that was also well before reaching the current saturation point

Lemmy really needs a post-rock community. That’s one of the reasons I can’t quit reddit. The one there is just excellent.

Why are they circumsized? Surely it would have been less work to leave the stone foreskin uncut.

Randall definitely has significant artistic talent, but there are hundreds of examples from xkcd that absolutely support the argument.

Jesus Christ, you just made a compelling argument on behalf of rage comics. I’m pleasantly impressed.

On top of everything others have said, there’s no watermark, signature, url, etc from an original artist. Webcomics like this will always have one unless it’s removed by a reposter, which yeah, that happens, but I feel not as often these days. And when it does, it’s a pretty shitty thing to do, and not a good situation either.

Thirty or forty more mistakes like this, and I might start to think this Susan Collins might not be a good judge of character

TIL about the Blue Dog Coalition, a bunch of conservative Democrats, and Perez is co-chair

I mean, yes? Are there jackasses, douchebags, and shitbirds out there I should be worried about offending?

Not sure if you caught the reference, but the person you’re replying to was paraphrasing Nicholson’s line from A Few Goof Men. They’re likely not actually taking that position in the debate.

Agreed on the private equity firms shit, I’ve worked at 2 such hospitals and they’ve been hell. They’re most assuredly not passing those increased prices along to the employees in form of wage increases, I’ll tell you that.

Also, that tooth extraction is a choice to use as a comparison. I’ve never had to be anesthetized for my extractions, but good luck doing that on an awake dog, so of course costs are going to be high. Anesthestizing you for your dentistry would cost way way more than it does now, and certainly more tgan your dog’s.

There’s no way it costs more than your doctor. You are either glossing over what your insurance is paying for you, or your doctor is seeing you in a back alley somewhere.

Also, you’re not paying for the vet’s time spent looking at bloodwork, which I actually do believe is 5 minutes. You’re paying for the 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of medical school, (and if they’re truly a specialist) several years of residency and being boarded, plus many hours of specialized continuing education per year.

Please never fix that typo

What are your thoughts on the word “biennial”?

I believe they’re referring to the metric time comment, not the calendar change idea.

This meme already ignores the fact that it’s only produced a calendar of 364 days.

Most proposed versions I’ve seen of this calendar have New Year’s Day as a standalone holiday, so the leap day presumably tacks on to that every 4 years?

Jesus Christ, my heart started racing just seeing that image. Thanks for reawakening this forgotten terror.

cPTSD or ‘complex PTSD’ is literally the name for it. Here’s more info from people smarter than me: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24881-cptsd-complex-ptsd
