Oh I’m not saying it won’t, I’m just calling out the people that act like we’re not already in a major dystopia.

Step 1: Hoard a bunch of stuff no one really cares about.
Step 2: Wait until you’ve hoarded the majority of that stuff in your local area.
Step 3: Start telling people how important the thing you’ve been hoarding is.
Step 4: People are dumb and actually start believing the useless thing you’ve hoarded is actually important.
Step 5: Enjoy your new status as the man who convinced everyone something completely useless was important.
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 4 days ago:
Because it gives the ruling class something to hold over the poors so the rest of society is so terrified of becoming poor they forget that they’re being used as literal slaves for the state

Fun fact! Apparently screaming “WWE SMACKDOWN!!!” and then elbow dropping it isn’t considered “success” 🙄
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 week ago:
I’ll admit I’ve only heard a few say it here or there online but I’ve had several experiences irl with women who actually think and behave that way.
I’ve had a coworker get pissy with me because I was getting excited and loud and her “apology” was “Sorry I just hate men. Like all men”.
Idk maybe I just got (un)lucky enough to live in an area where we have a lot of outspoken women who actually act like all men are fucking monsters and it’s exhausting especially for me because I actually look like the type of guy that would do some of the shit I hear about.
I’m 6’3" covered in tattoos and scars. I look just like the type of guy women are afraid of. And as a result I get hit with all the bullshit from it. Despite being an ally and doing my best to try to be a light in the darkness.
Like I said, feels sisyphean
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 week ago:
That’s a fair assumption from what I said though that’s not how I meant it.
I treat everyone equally regardless of what is or isn’t between their legs. I’m generally just that helpful guy that’s always offering help to people even if they don’t outright ask for it. I just try my best to make sure everything is going smoothly for everyone around me.
But I bet not a single woman I’ve interacted with would ever remember me helping them. They’d never remember me going out of my way to make sure they felt safe and were having as good of a time as possible. But they’ll never forget that guy that made them uncomfortable. And that’s all they’ll think about. They’ll ignore every single man they interacted with. They’ll ignore all the men that didn’t do anything to them. The men that treated them like normal human beings.
I’m not gonna change how I treat everyone. But it’s really fuckin annoying to constantly hear “all men” when I’m actively going out of my way to be as helpful as possible.
Feels sisyphean.

Not just shellfish! They’re all part of the arthropod family! So that would also include lobsters and crabs!
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 week ago:
My only issue with that mentality is it completely ignores reality. I understand that most women have had a bad experience with a guy here or there. What they don’t seem to understand is that the types of guys that are doing these things are a small percentage of the population.
The guys that are pulling this crap aren’t even gonna get offended by this whole “man or bear” thing in the first place. At the end of the day it just makes the rest of us feel even more dejected and apathetic about it all. Why should I champion for any woman when I’m going to be seen as a predator regardless?
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 2 weeks ago:
No it’s not perfect but halting any progress because of potential problems is stupid when the current method is doing so much more harm.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 2 weeks ago:
No it was meant as a general summary of the comment sections on posts like these.
They’re always filled with people acting like nuclear power is the most dangerous way of generating energy there is despite all scientific data showing pretty much the opposite. Fossil fuels are more dangerous than every other type of energy combined.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 2 weeks ago:
Every time I’m in a thread about nuclear power it’s the same shit.
Y’all really have no fuckin clue how much safer it is than fossil fuels. But go ahead and keep letting the oil industry convince you otherwise.

- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck turns into world's most expensive brick after car wash 3 weeks ago:
I mean conceptually that sounds fine like our vehicles should be inspected to ensure proper maintenance. The only problem I can see with that is poor people like myself.
I’ve gotten ticketed for having a loud exhaust because I was a pizza delivery driver and our cities roads are so bad doing the speed limit will total your car. I didn’t hand the money to fix my exhaust which is what I told the officer who basically said “Now you’ll have even less money” before handing me the $150 ticket.
I need a car for work (I don’t work pizza anymore but still have a 30 minute drive) just because one aspect of my car isn’t up to code doesn’t mean I don’t still need my car to get to work.
- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck turns into world's most expensive brick after car wash 3 weeks ago:
That’s never happened to me in my life. The only time the state ever “inspects” my vehicle is if I’ve already been pulled over for something like my exhaust
- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck turns into world's most expensive brick after car wash 3 weeks ago:
Vehicle regulations are typically only for emission standards or exhaust loudness. For the most part as long as the vehicle can do the speed limit there’s very little regulation on the matter.

My guess would be to add area specific star patterns to make local traveling easier.
Like having a detail specific map for each specific point of interest.

I saw a hawk and a Robin going at it one day. It fucked me up when the Robin hit the hawk and it started to fall. Didn’t see the aftermath as I was driving but either way. Never expected a hawk to lose against a Robin.

That’s the one. I remember the first time I saw it I laughed for hours.

This is like that one meme about the kestrel stealing from a falcon or something.
The risk I took was calculated. But man, am I bad at math.

I mean that’s just the opposite conditioning. The bees that chose the pictures with more spots were rewarded for choosing the pictures with more spots. So they’d be conditioned to go for the picture with more spots.
