Ouch! I’m guessing something like those? …google.com/…/data=CiwiJgokCfyNfWxFlTRAEfmNfWxFlT…
- Comment on You could get anything you wanted and it was FREE 1 week ago:
And when you downloaded “Yoursong.mp3.exe” you knew you were about to have the best day ever!
(To this day it amazes me how so many people don’t pay attention to file types and keeps them hidden.)
- Comment on It would be wrong to kill Elon musk and Donald Trump, but it would absolutely make the world a better place. Killing is wrong. But the world would be better without them. 1 week ago:
Prison. Not a cushy one, just regular prison.
- Comment on Angry, disappointed users react to Bluesky's upcoming blue check mark verification system 3 weeks ago:
There’s been a lot of impersonated accounts popping up lately, so it doesn’t surprise me they’ve opted to do something like this.
- Comment on US citizen says he was detained returning from Canada 4 weeks ago:
I mean, it’s not 100% his fault that he fell for bad propaganda and bullshit… but it is still partially that he couldn’t be bothered to look any deeper into the lies the right wing machine has been constantly feeding him.
We have the same issues in Canada, with the conservatives paying millions of dollars to third parties such as Canada Proud to spread bullshit on their behalf and to divide us. We need to curbstomp this bullshit as hard as we can.
- Comment on Even his doctors are full of it 4 weeks ago:
Same. I can’t recall any of my doctors ever measuring my height. The police and RCMP tho both kept pretty good records of my teenage growth years.
- Comment on How exactly are people lighting Teslas on fire? 1 month ago:
Fresnel lenses (like the kind you can tear out of old projection tv’s) work great for that, but they’re kind of a pain and bulky, and very impractical. I have one I took out of an old 55" projection tv. I think charcoal firestarters by a tire works better and can be “deployed” in seconds, but concentrated light is still pretty cool.
- Comment on How exactly are people lighting Teslas on fire? 1 month ago:
Good point. I didn’t think to add that because I rarely carry my tracking devices with me.
- Comment on How exactly are people lighting Teslas on fire? 1 month ago:
Filming only helps so much though. Cover your face and anything identifying, wear clothes from a thrift store, put a pebble in your shoe (to force you to walk differently) etc, and it’s pretty hard to link you to anything without some solid evidence.
- Comment on How exactly are people lighting Teslas on fire? 1 month ago:
Accelerants and or/ firestarters placed near the tires. Once you get the rubber burning the rest kind of takes care of itself.

ICE once bit my sister.
- Comment on Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop 2 months ago:
Stellantis, the parent company of Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram,
Not just a Jeep thing.
- Comment on Asteroid’s chances of hitting Earth in 2032 just got higher – but don’t panic 2 months ago:
Don’t panic? I think a lot of people may be rooting for the asteroid by the time it gets here.

I’m not a Ford guy, but they do look pretty good.
- Comment on (:3) 3 months ago:
Taxpayer funded slave market. The taxpayer feeds them, clothes them, houses them, pays for the guards etc… THEN the elite get to use them for their discount labor.

Ngl, your title had me hyped for a minute there.
- Comment on EU disease agency considers quitting Elon Musk’s X over disinfo 5 months ago:
It USED to be a decent source for news and updates on stuff but that’s long gone. I deleted my account just before that weird billionaire guy bought it and don’t regret it one bit.
- Comment on The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying 5 months ago:
Yup pretty much. When I’m working and doing a lot I eat like a horse, but days I don’t do much I don’t eat much either. And I haven’t gained weight in over 30 years despite people telling me otherwise. (Well, a little but mostly muscle mass… I was 165 at 16 and in my 50’s I’m 180 now with the same 31" waist.)
- Comment on The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying 5 months ago:
As one of those that easily destroy an XL pizza in one go… why is that terrifying?
I Mean, overall I don’t eat all that much… I never eat breakfast and very rarely eat lunch, so one meal a day for me (historically a very active person) has to be large to make up for the times I don’t have time to stop and eat. So it takes at least a large pizza or like two boxes of Mac & cheese to even come close to refilling my fuel tank.
- Comment on They're called leaves for a reason. 5 months ago:
Does his ass count as a source?
- Comment on USA President term limits 5 months ago:
They probably won’t get rid of elections… they’ll just have sham elections like Russia has to give the impression of “legitimacy” but I guarantee they’ll be heavily rigged in their favor.
- Comment on Why are laptop adapters so much larger than phone adapters of same power rating? 6 months ago:
My guess is it’s similar to the electric motors they put in cars vs industrial motors… they can both put out X amount of power but the industrial ones (or in this case the laptop power) can do it continuously without overheating while the other can only output “up to” that power rating for a short time without burning up.
