I think Tool wrote a song about that.
- Comment on Andor was such a clever show 2 weeks ago:
just to add to the link in case anyone can’t click it:
Davis eventually went on to befriend over twenty members of the KKK,[16] and claims to have been directly responsible for between forty and sixty, and indirectly over two hundred people leaving the Klan.[19] Over the course of his activities, Davis found that Klansmen have many misconceptions about black people, stemming mostly from intense brainwashing in their youth. When they got to know him, Davis claims, it was more difficult to maintain their prejudices. He recounted his experiences in his 1998 book, Klan-destine Relationships: A Black Man’s Odyssey in the Ku Klux Klan.
Klan members have often invited Davis to meetings, and they have given him their robes and hoods.[16] In 2016, Davis estimated having collected 25 or 26 robes.

I can’t say I’ve seen examples of this in reality.
- Comment on a real danger of quantum computing 2 weeks ago:
Did anyone check and see if the state of those quantum-linked pairs are related to time? And it’s just like a function of milliseconds since linking determines whether positive or negative, and that’s how you can know the other one is the exact opposite, without any “information being transmitted”… did anyone check if it’s time?

- Comment on surely your hobby can't be that expensive 4 weeks ago:
Papercraft is pretty cool. If you have some thick card stock paper, a printer, a knife, and some glue, you can find 3D designs online for almost anything. I made an IL2 Sturmovik.

- Comment on YSK that Boris Johnson was one of the most corrupt Prime Minister in British history. He was obsessed about money 1 month ago:
I’m just saying the people aren’t completely powerless. Democracy can work, we forced the government to side with the general populace and not the wealth several times, including quite recently.

Email Gabe, here:
gaben@valvesoftware.com
I did back in 2015 when I was an edgy idiot, upset about their removal of the game Hatred because it is literally a spree shooting simulator. And I was all like “free speech”. And Gabe actually replied! And put the game back up too.
So email him. He might reply.

Well the medical people stopped using it so it only makes sense, yeah.
Like when they stopped using ‘idiot’ and ‘moron’, those words became socially acceptable to use again.
Just wait until you hear the kids say “Bro, are you developmentally handicapped?”

Bit of rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush usually solves those “damp air fucked my electronics” issues.

It was more like 30 minutes with the Super Heavy Duty AA’s my dad could afford.
But that’s okay, he hand soldered me a DC adapter that only threw sparks sometimes.

I keep getting ads for crack cocaine. Been a couple months now, every time I log into Facebook, “CRYSTAL CLEAR, 100% PURE” or some shit.
Like what are the drug cops even supposed to do now, arrest Facebook?
- Comment on tiktok users are making videos on... class conciousness?!! 2 months ago:
But they do use desperate immigrants from poor countries to suppress wages, since their precarious situation makes them more easy to exploit and less likely to demand things like labor regulations or unions.
Then they use accusations of racism or “hating immigrants” to distract from the practice.

When I think of what kinds of posts are the Russian troll farms spreading to encourage division and hostility between Americans, this is the kind of post I think of.

You guys ever get the impression nearly everyone on internet message boards is autistic?
And I don’t mean that in a mean way, I mean that literally.
