- Comment on Maybe those 20 seconds were because of the lack of getting raises? 3 hours ago:
I would have used that $3000 (excessive price to emphasize the point) for raises for multiple people! Be mad that you and your 4 coworkers aren’t getting an additional $11/week!
- Comment on Tacos. 6 hours ago:
Tacos. Absolutely murder me some tacos.
- Comment on Trump pledges to scrap offshore wind projects on ‘day one’ of presidency 5 days ago:
Ehh, smooth brained maybe.

We’re nothing but money to them.
Welcome to capitalism?
Always has been.
- Comment on Birds of a feather 1 week ago:
I’ve heard this in terms of “doors” so couldn’t you just ask “are you a door?” The liar has to say no
- Comment on How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals 1 week ago:
This is pretty much where I’m at too. I don’t hate conservative voters, but I have such distain for conservative politicians for all the hate and pain they foment.
For most people I believe “no one is the villain of their own story” they believe they’re doing the right thing with what information they are presented. For politicians, they’re the fucking scum of the earth and I wish hell was real so those fuckers could rot in it.
- Comment on How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals 1 week ago:
There are a few there I would argue arent specific to conservativism like labor having value and freedom of religion, but yeah I could see those on the left having an issue with too much concern over spending as the government isn’t the same as your personal bank account that needs to be balanced.
- Comment on Dating apps are as if someone turned the job application experience into a pastime activity 2 weeks ago:
It would be nice if they said anything.
“Dogs, Travel, Tacos.” Isn’t a profile and yet 80% of the profiles I see are basically that, or “just ask.”
- Comment on Windows 11 just isn't enticing Windows 10 users to upgrade, and its market share is actually falling 2 weeks ago:
Which is exactly why I actually bought 10 instead of cheating an upgrade “hack” I figured out with XP that I then carried over to 10. I figured if it’s actually the last then it’s worth the 500 fucking dollars or whatever the hell it cost back then.
But no, they lied. I know surprise surprise a corporation lied.

“Welcome to Costco, I love you.”
- Comment on Biden expected to sign the TikTok ban on Wed. 3 weeks ago:
Literally my first thought… Way to go Biden, nothing like getting hundreds of thousands of “influencers” mad at you right at an important election…
But who are we kidding, I can guarantee that maybe 5% of Congress even understood what they were doing.
- Comment on Biden expected to sign the TikTok ban on Wed. 3 weeks ago:
and I’m worried it could allow the government to ban competition with US company competitors.
I want to give the benefit of the doubt and say they are concerned about getting programs running all over the country that can somehow “backdoor” a major issue into our network, but I not only don’t know enough about how feasible that is, I also strongly believe it’s as you feared. It’s what we get the government to do all the time: fuck with other countries to “protect” our major corporations…
- Comment on Rooftop solar panels are flooding California’s grid. That’s a problem. As electricity prices go negative, the Golden State is struggling to offload a glut of solar power 4 weeks ago:
We have systems like “gravity batteries.” If there is an excess of power then there should be storage systems like running water up a hill/tower, that can be released at times of greater demand.
- Comment on teachings 4 weeks ago:
I wish it was that easy! I stopped thinking and I’m still stuck here… Stupid Descartes
- Comment on ISPs can charge extra for fast gaming under FCC’s Internet rules, critics say 4 weeks ago:
When it’s mafia it’s extortion, when it’s ISPs it’s just “good business practices.”
- Comment on YSK : Dark patterns among large companies are becoming more mainstream 4 weeks ago:
The “best” you could do in this case is use ad blockers, don’t use an account and never interact. Even a negative interaction counts. It’s all “engagement,” even if negative.
- Comment on Give them 10 minutes, tops. 4 weeks ago:
My friends sister literally watched the people drive away with her car and immediately called the cops. Their response was “we won’t be able to find them, call your insurance company.” Thanks guys, dont even bother helping people… They couldn’t be more than 3 blocks away, you fuckers have cops all over town waiting to jump on a speeder but you can’t put out a call to be on the lookout for a car of her color and make?
- Comment on natural sciences be like 4 weeks ago:
Sunlight, all light really is absolutely fucking mind blowing.
Hell, all things are absolutely mind blowing when you get down to the point that you’re discussing excitations of this or that specific field…
- Comment on no thanks, crystal mami 5 weeks ago:
My last serious relationship was with a girl who got really excited when I finished her sentence “most people don’t realize (our area) is…”
“mostly Quartz!”
I still miss her… She moved away to go to school, but it was only a few hours away so I don’t think she misses me lmao
- Comment on My opinion on Bone conduction earphones 5 weeks ago:
Oooooo. I might try these! I’m not a cyclist, but I have a bit of an anxiety issue where I can’t have a sense completely cut off from the outside. I feel very uncomfortable when I have both ears covered and can’t really sense my environment.
I really want a VR set, but I know I won’t like having my vision cut off from “reality.” Stupid anxiety lol
- Comment on High quality channel 5 weeks ago:
That fucking flag man… What was it like 6 years? MuH hErItAgE!
The vast majority of my families ancestry comes from Italy, but as an American from a family who has been here for over 100 years, keeping an Italian flag just feels incredibly stupid and “fake” to me.
- Comment on Millennials and Gen Z's trendy new splurge: groceries 5 weeks ago:
“Plan to spend more.”
Yeah… It’s my plan like it’s the suns plan to rise in the morning…
The earth forces that shit and the food conglomerates force me to spend more…

“I know you had plants growing and the electricity is expensive for those bulbs. Also the garden was messy during the winter so I’m keeping your security.”
…it was a 50w led running on a timer. Get fucked.

- Comment on On a huge election year for the world, Meta will shut down CrowdTangle, it's tool for election integrity observer without replacement 1 month ago:
Imagine thinking the owning class wouldn’t be the ones creating the new constitution…
Something needs to change, but once we open that can of worms were going to see things like:
“All citizens are required to give all personal data to meta whether using the platform or otherwise.”
“Oil will be enshrined as the National Energy Source™”
“Union activity is an act of economic terrorism.”
- Comment on Tech titans assemble to decide which jobs AI should cut first 1 month ago:
A-fuckin-goddamn-men.
There is no tool that is OWNED that will ever serve the public without first having to pay the owner.
There really are some things that should be publicly owned, but of course that LeAvEs MoNeY oN tHe tAbLe and that’s a worse sin than murder to our society…

My favorite “Big X” thing was something I just found on lemmy recently, it had me laughing harder than it really should have tbh.
