  Do they have a transcript? I can’t stand listening to podcasts for long

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why 3D-Printing an Untraceable Ghost Gun Is Easier Than Ever (Podcast 18mins)⁩ ⁨⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Wild. I suppose, thinking about it, it’s also way quicker to iterate on, test, and improve too.

  You know, we have all the technology to do that.

  Has anyone done it? Why haven’t I done it?

  Damn you know, I’m gonna do it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These Island Birds Are So Full of Plastic They Crunch When You Touch Them⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Well that’s a new level of gross

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk its usually the restruant serving it and they taste super sour and bitter and tingly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait

  Vinaigrettes are sweet? Wtf have I been ingesting, they always taste awful and create a strange shocking/tickling feeling down my spine

  Well I guess ketchup does it too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some people have it worse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh I’m fairly confident that we’ll see our famine and genocide too. War? Idk there ain’t no war but class war, so we see plenty of war, just one side is winning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some people have it worse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow

  That would save so much bullshit if I could just skip that stupid pleasantry.

  I tell people how I’m doing now and then to throw people off. Feels sort of like a power play, but they usually seem to think “wow this guy is full of himself.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shrimpposters begone!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll tell you it’s slightly more believable than the vegetable that fried rice.

  At least the damn shrimp has agency.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Medicaid researcher attacked by Elon Musk's DOGE just killed herself⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, pretty much every medical research institution does. Hell, pretty much every research institution period does with the US Military.

  Saying that they do research for the regime because they have federal funds is a bit of a stretch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Medicaid researcher attacked by Elon Musk's DOGE just killed herself⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Famous and well respected. I think I can only name three that come close - Duke University, Cleveland Clinic, and Mayo Clinic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Time Stop⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Which always makes me think twice about how I would choose time manipulation as a super power. Unless I could like reverse the time my cells experience to undo the extra ageing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No we can talk here⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Hahahaha jokes on everyone else, the sun already burns my when I step outside.

  How is this a rape joke?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tity more tity, the Greed is sickening⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My 8 year old still plays coloring games with Elmo on his tablet. He ain’t got no time for girls per china.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure there are some - particularly around the Midwest there are a lot of giant truck enthusiast types - I have no idea why, other than it might say “I have a farm and big arms.”

  So your looking at a $70k vehicle brand new. Personally if I was dropping $70k on a car it would be something far more fun to drive and cozier inside. And electric nowadays. And not Tesla.

  But I guess you could still go based on brand - your Mercedes sedan is going to be way fancier than any Ford you can get.

  But there are also the types who still think Jaguar is a luxurious brand. IDK.

  Or maybe I’m just analyzing the premise of wealth being attractive too much. What I consider something to be valuable won’t be what they do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok so yours actually made me re read the post because I was seriously concerned people were throwing all this shit around.

  I may have misread the post.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Rename yourself Klein Moretti and uncover eldritch mysteries

  I’m like 99% sure this might be good advice

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  (aren’t you always supposed to be controversial?)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know what’s going on in this thread anymore.

  What’s misogynistic about what?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ???

  This whole thread is about income being attractive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t interpret what he said to be a script I should use. It was more of “don’t be afraid of actually using disposable income.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok see, THAT makes sense.

  Also helps that I don’t look at prices anyway(not that that behavior is a good thing, I still need to budget for disposable income) unless something looks stupid, like a $200 steak (There is a place here with a $70 steak, I’m tempted to try it one day).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I appreciate the sarcasm, but that’s the thing. I don’t get it.

  I don’t know what makes wealthier people look wealthy. You can’t tell a watch is a Rolex from 20 feet away. Tailored Suit and tie? Great, everyone else wears that too.

  A house? I can’t bring that with me wherever I go.

  A car? I don’t know if you’ve met many women who care about what you drive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a good point, but it’s still 2.5x the median income for the area I live.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs. male delusion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Pfft.

  If that were true Id have no problem picking up women.

  Actually, now that I think about it, how the hell would I say I make $150k/yr without saying it? You really can’t can you? So how would you attract women with it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dying from sleep deprivation is like dying from holding your breath. You'd fall unconscious eventually, rectifying the threat.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought they discovered that most sleeping pills block adenosine clearance. That would mean that adenosine would still build up and you would eventually sleep excessively

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We did. It was 7th grade. But I know that a bunch of small countries were ignored for reasons unbeknownst to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  To further your point: I didn’t know Luxembourg was a country until a couple of years ago.

  I always thought it was a big city in Denmark. I know people who thought Denmark was in Colorado though, so I’m at least doing better than them.
