Hi. Random straight guy here.
looks at picture
…not sure why anyone would have an issue with this.
I’m more confused/concerned why there’s a series of traffic cones turning a 2 lane road into a 1 lane road without any obvious reason why.
Also, holy shit! That’s a lot of random solar panels! Someone call that phone number, and ask them what they power.

He said, as he gave out instructions on how to start Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Kind of reminds me of those frozen grape juice blocks they sold in the 1930s that did NOT contain alcohol, but gave a very specific warning on the back for the exact specific steps you absolutely shouldn’t do. Because if you did complete those steps, your 100% legal nonalcoholic grape juice would ferment into illegal alcoholic wine. They’re just warning you what NOT to do. Wink wink.
- Comment on Would submitting a criminal complaint against Trump and his administration too the ICC for war crimes be a waste of time? 8 hours ago:
You could file a complaint to the ICC, who would basically wag their finger at him.
And then trump would release a statement:
“So the ICC won’t let me be, or let me be me, so let me see. They shut down the Islands with Epstein, and now they’re so empty without me!”

Being impeached is NOT the same as being removed from presidency. In fact, there have been 4 total impeachments in U.S history. None have lead to removal of office.
I don’t disagree with your message or tone. I just see people online say “He was impeached, and nothing happened”.
No, it did. He WAS impeached. That’s what being impeached looks like. A little astrict on your presidency, and a seperate vote for removal of office. He was never voted out of office. But both astricts will remain there for the rest of history.

Just waiting for humans to be next. This planet will be so much better when all you assholes are gone. Just me, a capybara, and like 30 cats, all roaming the land, getting into adventures, and exploring anchient abandoned ruins of what used to be society.
"Ok guys, this is Seattle. Yeah, it’s very rainy, I’m sorry. We’ll keep moving. But if you look in any direction, you’ll see buildings that used to be called starbucks. Well now currency has no value, so bucks aren’t much of a star anymore. Ah well, doesn’t matter. You guys wouldn’t like coffee anyways. Well…not that starbucks ever had actual coffee anyways. It was always vaguely coffee flavored sugar water.

“Yes, yes, I know. We can use this starbucks for shelter now, and get out of the rain, ok? I hear you.”

“What do you mean you’re pregnant??? With who??? Carl??? Really? Carl. You slept with Carl and got pregnant. Ok, fiiiiine, we’ll camp here until you have your babies.
And Carl? Nice! How’d you manage to swing that deal? Oh. You say cats don’t ask for consent in sexual matters…well, no, I guess that makes sense. Cats having sex always just sounds like screaming and crying. I guess I hadn’t stopped to think it was all rape.”
“Meow”
“Yeah, go nuts. Piss and shit all over the place. Not like we’re staying here long.”
I’d watch that show.

Double??? Fuck that. Charge 10x as much. These rich assholes pay pennies while hoarding billions. Don’t feel bad for them when you need to clean up THEIR mess. I usually want everyone to feel empathy, but in this case, I’ll make an exception. Have no empathy for billionaires. Their GOAL is to make you suffer. Milk their bank account dry.

Is 1000 points the same as 1000 passes? Where you pass through the opening, is that 1 point? Or do they start getting worth more the longer you play?
- Comment on Is Flappy Bird a good game? 1 day ago:
Which I never understood. You just needed the apk. I only heard of the game after it was pulled. I went online, found one of those apk mirror sites, downloaded it, and installed it. Not sure why they put the phones in airplane mode to sell the phones. Then again I always have my phones set to never auto-update.

“And now, you just dab a bit of paint here, and apply your brush in very short little strokes. Then we have ourselves a nice little tree. And at the base, we can put a little squirrel here. Oops! It looks like I made a bit of a mistake, but that’s ok. I’ll just get the green paint, and paint little swirly strokes, and now we’ve fixed our mistake by drawing a happy little bush. That’ll just be our little secret, ok? And if you tell ANYONE that you saw Bob Ross make a mistake, I’ll use the skills I developed in the U.S. Navy, hunt you down, and gut you like a fish! You hear me? Bob Ross is strictly for the hardcore! Snitches get stitches, so shut your bitchass up, ok?”

And trump, seen here preparing to kiss putin’s ass, is being used as the example of GOOD looking gaming.
If that’s the good looking modern gaming, I feel justified in my tastes as a retro pixelart gamer. Because I have no interest in ever seeing trumps ugly face.
- Comment on Microsoft’s ‘unhackable’ Xbox One has been hacked by 'Bliss' 1 day ago:
Is the XBox One the new one? Or the one after Xbox 360? The only company who knows how to name their consoles is Sony.
Microsoft is trying to confuse the audience by saying “oh, they have the playstation 3? We have the Xbox 360! That’s 357 higher than 3!”
I don’t own any Xbox’s. I don’t know the order they came out in. But even if I never owned a playstation, I could tell you 5 is the newest one, because 6 hasn’t come out yet.
And then there’s Nintendo…who may genuinely be on drugs when they name their consoles. I mean for gods sake! One of them was named after a penis, and one was named after a bdsm role.
Which one is the Xbox One again?

Should have made the quote something Zorak would say.

That’s why I don’t use these delivery services.
One time I was inside a mcdonalds. I decided to see how much it would cost to ubereats my exact order to be delivered to me inside the mcdonalds dinning room.
Now this story is like 7 years old, so things maybe have changed since the pandemic.
My meal, a big mac meal large, with a coke in store at the time cost about $8. With uber eats, first off before uber even decides to tack their fees on, the meal itself was $10. So just the items themselves are instantly more expensive in the app. But then they start adding charges and fees, and you’re expected to tip.
The final result, 30 feet from the mcdonalds counter would have cost $26. For a meal that costs $8.
I said fuck that, and never ordered from these delivery services. That’s just straight up price gouging.
Since that time, I may never have looked back into the prices, but I have observed how these services work while standing in line at counters of various fast food places.
They have this little shelf of delivery orders. The customer orders at home. The crew makes your order, and they put it onthe shelf. Then some delivery guy just walks in, scans the reciept taped to the bag, and leaves without ever interacting with the staff.
I also noticed one time that it took 20 minutes from the time I walked in, to the time a delivery driver came in to grab the bags. Thats not including time BEFORE I got there. They may have put them there 30 seconds before I walked in, or 30 minutes. I have no way to know. What I do know confirmed is that they did sit there for 20 minutes.
And it’s not even in a heat lamp. Not that would be much better, but it might at least maintain the food’s heat.
So that means whomever ordered that food, spent probably $30-$50 depending on their order (they had 2 drinks), to get cold fast food, 20 minutes plus driving time later.
So they paid more money for a slower service, with cold food.
Plus, these delivery drivers don’t do any confirmation that they even have authorization to even pickup that food. They don’t wear uniforms. There’s no authorization process. I assume the scanning barcode is more on their end to make sure they have the right bag.
So what’s stopping me, a random guy who doesn’t work for uber eats, from walking in, pretending to scan a reciept, and walking out with free random food? What happens when the real driver shows up? Does McDonalds hold their line that they already made and packaged that order? Or does Ubereats insist they never picked it up?
But the real question…why the fuck are you dumb idiots buying this crap? Even if I did still eat from fast food places, the portions are shrinking, the prices are rising, they’re cutting staff, and trying to use AI to screw up your order. Did you order a big mac meal? Or did you order 18,000 bottles of dasani water? True story. An AI drive thru bot in 2024 screwed up that order that way. He verbally spoke big mac meal large, and AI insisted he ordered 18,000 bottles of dasani water. So he just said hell with it, and drove away.
But why do you people keep buying this crap? Especially from delivery services. It’s all garbage, and getting worse. The service is garbage. The food is garbage. The prices are insane. The portions are nearly nonexistant. And now you can pay 3x more for cold food an hour later.
Why do people keep buying this shit?

I’d have voted for Psyduck.
Pikachu is a loud high energy narcisist who doesn’t care if he electricutes those cares about. Politically that sounds like trump.
Psyduck is a mentally and emotionally weighted creature who spends all his time empathizing with everybody. Not just those arround him, but the entire planet. He has anxiety because the world just keeps getting darker and scarier. Psy-yi-yi indeed!
Politically I’d say Psyduck is Jimmy Carter.
