CISA’s director literally just testified to congress about China fucking with shit.
Also, I see Instagram reels as a competitor.

And before the decade-long process of today, even the legal immigrants had it way easier.
Want to be an American? Great*, get on a boat, avoid icebergs, get off the boat at a port of entry, and talk to someone who will misspell your name.

Why does anyone do anything?
I’m not into it but it seems pretty inevitable given its proximity to nerve endings and such. Who cares what people do to their own selves? I imagine most would be using lube and only sizing up after they feel confident with their current diameter.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As someone who takes prescribed ketamine on the regular, it blows my mind that he can still hold the shit opinions he has. I only ever feel more connected to everyone and more present with the small joys around me.

Even if this were true, I’d vote for a banana peel over Trump because at least the banana peel won’t do anything to dismantle election integrity.

Ok but most of this can be solved by going to literally any co-working space.
And as far as getting to know coworkers–wouldn’t you rather pick your friends from people you can choose to be around?
Sorry don’t take my spicy opinion personally. I think I’ve read too many dumbass return-to-office mandates that use stuff like your preference as leverage. Obviously, it’s not your fault they do that.

Bold of you to assume I know how myopic is correctly pronounced.
- Comment on Hasan Minhaj’s “Emotional Truths” 7 months ago:
I don’t necessarily think this is malicious. When everyone acts like they don’t hear people of color, Hasan using his platform to bring those experiences to a wider audience seems like a good thing. Are we sure he didn’t hear these experiences from others and choose to spread them so more people can get the message?

Thank you! Me too! I would love a decent market of subcompacts to choose from but it’s so barren in the US and imports are $$$$$.
I can’t believe they discontinued the Smart Car and there wasn’t another successor ready to take over its share of consumers.

Amen! And it would benefit literally everybody. You can communicate across a room or in loud environments. It’s so useful!
