- Comment on Another State Lawmaker Wants To Criminalize Porn Through Age Verification 11 months ago:
She ran unopposed in the last election after claiming she was going to retire. However, because the local Democratic party can’t get its shit together to run a candidate, she just filed her papers and extended her career of taking those free tax dollars and putting them in her pocket.

To be fair, my “woman” is able to disagree with me because I didn’t chain her up, hold her captive, and traffic her for my cam site (allegedly).
- Comment on Ultrasound can push vaccines into the body without needles 11 months ago:
They’re not cool. They’re fast and good for giving lots of shots in a situation where you need to get a lot of people in a hurry - especially if you’re giving multiple vaccinations at the same time.
I got one of those used on me in basic training - a place where you need to vaccinate a few thousand people in about 30 minutes. Each one could do 4 shots at a time, and they had them in multiple configurations so you could get up to 4 in each arm for each “injection” station. We stepped through the line, and you got whatever shots you were missing in your records.
It hurts, like you could imagine a high pressure power washer with a needle-point burst with 4 heads blasting vaccines in your arms. It works, in the machine-like way the military works, and it is highly effective for mass vaccinations. So, I guess it makes it cool, but also it sucks like you’d expect 4-30 vaccines at once would suck.
- Comment on Walmart says it is not advertising on social platform X 11 months ago:
That was bait. They say something borderline reasonable now, and you listen. Eventually, they say something weird and you let it slide. These people weasel themselves into reasonable people’s lives and ruin them, day after day.
- Comment on Not if the lack of grammar and education gets you first... 11 months ago:
You assume they could figure out that you’d be making fun of them. I think they probably lack the critical thinking and self-awareness for it to matter.
I’ve said many times that I can’t get rich off of stuff like this because I have a soul and wouldn’t be able to be ok with parting fools from their money. That might be you, too.

And then you learn about Fextra’s embedded twitch player that artificially inflates their twitch view count and pushes out smaller content creators who are actually trying to engage with a game’s audience.

- Comment on Bike Riders of lemmy, you okay with me riding my eScooter in the bike lane? 1 year ago:
Even if you’re going off to the side you’re on, it’s a distraction. It will draw my attention back to see if you’ve fallen, crashed, or gotten hurt. I will check my mirrors for you to see if there are additional dangers to me. I ride around bike-like objects all the time. Passing you isn’t even going to be a thing that I notice. You’ll get a “On your left, passing” from me when I’m about to go by so you know not to do any funny business in my direction. I don’t expect you to exit the lane. Heck, if you’re doing 15MPH, we might ride and bullshit with each other for a bit.
- Comment on Unity backtracks slightly on plans to charge developers for game installs 1 year ago:
Every Unity developer is under the same agreement. The changes were not announced to be “moving forward”. It’s a change to existing licenses to use Unity. For everyone. Everywhere.
I don’t know that licensing changes have been retroactive in the past. How do lawyers prevent companies from retroactively changing licensing? My guess would be to sue after the fact, which is probably why these developers are hinting that they’re going to suffer economic harm if Unity follows through with this. This statement may be their lawyers doing the work they’d normally do in this kind of circumstance.

…and my mind is stronger than a child’s…
It’s not though. It really, really isn’t.
