- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 2 weeks ago:
I fully expect him to try to change something, pull some underhanded thing like the VP switcheroo, or even try another insurrection (why not, he wasn’t punished for the last one? ) but as of right now he can’t run again.

That would be a natural cause. An elderly man dying of a heart attack is pretty natural.

Unless something changes, he can’t run again.
- Comment on I lost 6 to 10 years of my retirement last week! 3 weeks ago:
I haven’t lost anything. I haven’t sold anything. You only actually realize a loss if you sell. I’m far enough from retirement that I’m essentially just buying the dip right now.
- Comment on You are not living in reality if you do not see the huge difference between THEN and NOW 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think that they think that. I do think that they think you don’t deserve a house if you work at McDonalds.
- Comment on Why DO credit card companies make a stink about adult content anyway? 5 weeks ago:
Because they were being pressured from the credit card companies to do that.
- Comment on Why DO credit card companies make a stink about adult content anyway? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t think that’s entirely it. OnlyFans flirted with the idea of not allowing NSFW content because of pressure from the credit card companies. PornHub purged amateur content from the same pressure.
- Comment on It's weird that a room with just a toilet and sink is called a "half bath", when it in fact has zero bathtubs. 1 month ago:
Sure, it could mean that, but I don’t think any could person would go to that conclusion.

It’s a way to conveniently talk about the number of bathrooms. You can say a house is “three bedroom, two and a half bath” and you convey that there are two bathrooms and one “washroom”.

Protestors with arts and crafts are a lot less scary than protestors with guns. The Black Panthers were successful for a reason.
- Comment on In the US, it's finally socially acceptable again to clap when the plane lands 2 months ago:
I will still judge you.
- Comment on Maybe it's just hitting the side of the bowl. The outside of the bowl. 2 months ago:
Fair enough I suppose.

And unlike a cat you apparently have no night vision at all along with your dirty toilet?
- Comment on Maybe it's just hitting the side of the bowl. The outside of the bowl. 2 months ago:
If it’s up, you don’t even need to touch it, just sit…
- Comment on Maybe it's just hitting the side of the bowl. The outside of the bowl. 2 months ago:
Just be even lazier and sit down.
- Comment on YSK in the U.S., you can buy produce directly from black farmers and they will ship it to you. It can cost less than your supermarket and will piss off people in power. 2 months ago:
We (the US) have farmers markets in a lot of places. They can have very specific times that I always forget about. Around here in the northern climate, the farmer markets stop during the winter or move indoors and shift to selling more jarred and canned goods. My neighborhood has a coop, but it’s more expensive than the grocery store and with a worse selection. We have options here, but they require more thoughtfulness.

I was just at Whole Foods, not the best barameter for price, every brand that wasn’t the store brand was $10+ for a dozen. The store brand was $5.
- Comment on Microsoft blocks Windows 11 24H2 update on more PCs due to new gaming issues 4 months ago:
It’s funny, these days I boot into Linux (Bazzite) for gaming.
- Comment on Tesla stock pops 8% in premarket after report Trump wants to relax U.S. self-driving rules 5 months ago:
That’s their biggest criticism for their actual cars right now. They looked futuristic back 2012, but they look the same now. The other manufacturers have caught up with design and software. Now, they can be out produced into oblivion. That’s why Elon and other C suites at Tesla have been shedding shares, and Elon keeps trying to pump the stock.

About to be? They’ve already been paying extra for the privilege.
- Comment on Microsoft will end Windows 10 support in exactly one year 6 months ago:
And Windows 10 was supposed to be the last release becoming a rolling release. Only a sucker would have actually believed that.
