No no, you’ll need one-ounce slugs if you want to hole-punch any kevlar.

If you have a swiss army knife handy, use the awl to punch a new hole in the belt. Worked great for me.
- Comment on Losing_weight_IRL 6 days ago:
Well, if you have an awl handy you could always just make new notches. That’s what I did when I had a belt that didn’t have a hole at the right spacing for me.

part of me wants to believe somewhere down the line, days, weeks, months, years – they’ll have a sudden realization in the shower or before bed, and never stop cringing internally
the more realistic part of me knows in my heart that that moment may never come without being gently prodded towards it.

well, there is an option for “raw media download”, so I’m assuming turning that on will get you the .ogg files you seek.

don’t ask me. I just know with a premium spotify account it’ll give you 320kbps mp3s, without, you’re limited to 128kbps.

The more they alter, the more chance it is they fuck it up somewhere.
- Comment on Will be super fun when only epstein DNC are exposed and so they rat on all the RNC. Im all for the backlash. 1 month ago:
there is no possible way “100% democrats in the files” just goes without any pushback, so yeah either they’re totally unredacted and unaltered (likely, comes with its own set of problems) or the democrats absolutely will ratfuck the others.
personally I think the most likely outcome is that Trump’s name appears far fewer times than we expect (after they’ve, yanno, had their way with the files). Maybe a couple instances to satisfy the public that he was a skeezy fuck, but anything that implicates him in something serious will be changed to point to someone else’s name. Usually a Democrat, maybe sometimes the RINO of the week.
That would be the smartest way to alter the files. Leave everything else untouched, just make sure the golden
boyold fuck isn’t smeared. Are they smart enough to do that? Who knows. - Comment on Fans Are Accusing Ubisoft Of Using "Incredibly Disappointing" AI Art In Anno 117 2 months ago:

“if we fuck up our primaries, I’d still rather vote for a mediocre centrist by US standards, than allow what would likely turn out to be an actual factual Nazi to come to power through inaction/further bad choices.”
“ACKSHUALLY you’re on the right!”
“clown” – my default response when some fuckwit from .ml starts purity testing about leftism. Hi, by the way, you do realize you’re the exact kind of dipshit the OP is complaining about, right? Why are you even here?
“I’m gonna pretend like you didn’t just call me a clown, and tell you what you already know, that Gavin Newsom sucks; but that because you’re voting pragmatically instead of based on What I Think True Leftism Is, I don’t like you and therefor I’m right and you’re wrong” – and while subtly implying I don’t know political theory, that’s cute. I like your moxie.
>I proceed to explain why you’re a clown, that this country’s elections do not operate in a way that will result in anything better than “the least bad choice” being the correct way to vote until we reform how our elections work.
>instead of taking this moment to reflect on what I actually said in my first comment – I even just re-wrote a summary of it, first line in this comment, keep up sport – you decide to divert into “g-genocide!! newsom bad!! y-you’re still on the right if you vote for him!!!”
… I know he’s bad, you breathtakingly dumb fuck. Ideally, primaries will mean I don’t have to. But I live in the real world, and here in the real world, we run the candidate that wins the primary, and frequently our primaries are won by the exact kind of person Gavin Newsom is. Which is terrible, but still better than Trump (and I shudder to imagine how he could be worse).

>you think this is somehow dunking on me.
Man, I’d hate to see your performance when you think you’re losing.

yeah, you’re right, if my choices in 2028 are between a mediocre centrist and a literal nazi, I should just stay home and not vote/vote third party so it doesn’t count (in the US presidential election, yes, they don’t count; no, this is not up for debate). thanks, .ml user, what would we ever do without your peerless authority and insight on True Leftism™?
now run along and go be a 🤡 somewhere else.

- Comment on A rant on left-wing online infighting 2 months ago:
As much as I despise the idea of getting a Newsom presidency when he’s about as centrist as politicians in the US get; it would still be leaps and bounds better than four more years of Trump, Vance, or whatever corrupt fuck crawls out from under the MAGA movement in 2028. I’m hoping primaries mean we get an actual candidate, so we could, I dunno, win on a progressive platform for a change – but being realistic, if we’re going off a cliff, pumping the brakes is still better than stamping down on the gas.

- Comment on The Earth is reflecting less and less sunlight, study reveals 3 months ago:
global warming at this rate absolutely does have the potential to extinct us, no matter how cool we think we are. Tenacity and versatility will only carry you so far when you fuck up nature so badly that all the things you’d eat for food are themselves extinct or almost extinct. At the point we were down to a few thousand individuals, I should imagine that the climate not being super hyper mega fucked helped immensely in ensuring those people had adequate food – you aren’t going to be running down a deer (or a rabbit, or any other wild game) in the post-climate-apocalypse world if all the deer are dead because the food chain supporting the deer population collapsed. You aren’t going to be farming because extreme weather variations will make it impossible, you might be in for a drought or a monsoon and you’ll certainly not have accurate weather forecasting to go off of by that point. Foraging? I sure hope none of the various food chains and water cycles supporting the growth of forage-able food has collapsed either (they probably will). Fishing? Ocean acidity, microplastics, and global warming are all fighting to be the thing that kills that off, take your pick.
