I can count on one hand the number of videos I’ve seen where “wait until the end” holds true.

The most recent in years is a video of a dog chewing on something. The owner approaches it and the dog lets go of a hose which then sprays the owner.

Was not expecting that.

So maybe the next step, if you really want a swimming pool on the Moon, is to call Elon Musk and ask for a quote.

I don’t care enough to ask this asshole.

Religion is what gives these people the excuse.

It’s their own prejudices that play into politics.

It is. I’m sure it’s changed since it’s gone all Google/AI. I volunteered before all that. It was basically a PowerPoint presentation that was projected onto screens in a large conference room.

It’s a bit sweet seeing people in military uniforms talking to kids about Santa and where he is. Some of the people would chat with the kids, asking them what they wanted for Christmas.

It’s especially fun when other government agencies get in on it. I believe during one of Obama’s years, he held a press conference and he was asked about something to do with drones and how Santa would be protected or something like that. And he talked about how F-18s would rendezvous with Santa at the Canada-US border and escort him safely.

I’m too lazy to look it up but it got a lot of chuckles. Even the FAA got involved and issued press releases about how Santa was cleared to use the military air corridors to ensure speedy delivery.

Fwiw, the people who track Santa volunteer. Not only that, there are corporate sponsors that help fund the fuel and other costs.

I listened to the Lockheed Martin episode of Acquired and man…the military industrial complex has its hand so deep inside the Pentagon’s ass…

A new plane simply is too expensive to build today. Not because it’s hard. But because there are too many mouths to feed.

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.”

I love the idea behind this movement but there’s no validation or proof to know what you make is actually effective.

I’d love to see the guy behind this movement actually do studies on the efficacy of home made pharmaceuticals but then I have a feeling that big pharma would shut it down.

The last time I used gimp…it does but in like a really weird way. It’s not intuitive.

Iirc you take the circle selection tool and then make a path. Which you then assign a brush width and then a color.

That may be a side effect but it’s not the reason.

The reason is that they don’t want to be told what to do by the government. They want to use the government to tell other people what to do.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

This is about wielding power.

My understanding with glass is that it’s still cheaper to make new glass than recycle it whereas metal the costs have just about evened out.

Last I read about high density plastics is that they aren’t as strong after the first use. So they can’t be reused as high density plastic and have to be mixed in with other plastics.

I can all but guarantee it’s the latter. I have even noticed this at most Starbucks. They got rid of separate bins for recycling and just do trash/landfill now.

Fwiw, recycling doesn’t work anyway, except for metal. But even then it’s highly dependent on people cleaning the metal before recycling.

They specifically block the pirating communities. You can’t access them from .world

I’m assuming their admin messages.

I left when they defederated pirating communities.

What about funds to raise awareness of jury nullification? I want ads plastered around the courthouse 24/7 and in Times Square.

God he’s got such a punchable face.

If you don’t know how to use man, just type in man man.

This comes up a lot. While Swift might not be able to control concert ticket prices as a whole, she certainly has the influence to make it better. She’s a literal billionaire with a very devout following.

If anyone could hold a concert at a non-ticketmaster venue, it’s her.

If anyone could pay her staff quintuple the going rate, it’s her.

If anyone could lobby cities that hold her concerts accountable for how they treat homeless people, it’s her.

I love Taylor Swift as much as the next person, but she has blood on her hands just like every billionaire. She may be one of the “good” ones but if anyone could afford to do better, it’s her.
