mhhhh, I wonder if there is a hormone that is to being a greedy POS as ghrelin is to hunger? We should start cutting into billionaires until we find it.

It turns out there are more than zero options between “do nothing” and “become what you hate”. Many in fact.

Also, just a plain old idiot. Imagine having the magical power to kill anyone undetected and you’re like “hooray, I can go after local crooks!”. Had Light ever seen a newspaper? Did he know the world outside his city existed? If you aren’t starting with and primarily focusing on people globally known are you even trying?

Exactly. A person can want every nazi dead and hope that nobody has to die while being completely logically and morally covered.

It’s a real sign of our times that so many can not differentiate between a plagiarism fueled talking machine and a thinking machine.

Accusing a site of being left bias then turning it into a right wing shithole has, sadly, worked time and time again. Let’s hope Wikipedia can keep holding out.

I hate it when the default state is turned into the negative. Every time I have to specify “unsweet tea” I feel the sands of my lifeforce slipping away.

Sounds like a win/win.

It was. As was watching the submarine races since there were multiple viable, errr, seating arrangements. A glorious time to be alive.

Look at all that space dedicated to a vanishingly small number of cars. This could be a nice inner courtyard with some grass or at least way more trees, but nah, we gotta have a road and weird alley with two parking spots per building.

Giving Trump a politically popular win in the months leading up to a pivotal election certainly is a choice. Also, if the GOPedos are supporting this it is probably functionally useless or worse. Are Democrat strategists hyper-inbred sewer mutants who finished bottom of their class and/or do they show up to work wearing MAGA hats?

And the other 1/3’s best solution is to elect the blue team who did little to nothing to avoid this very obvious outcome. Even helped here and there. Though the rigged popularity contest doesn’t offer alternatives.

And the people protesting are doing it American style, where it looks more like a weekend festival at the park. This is, of course, how they were taught to do it. The people in charge can tune that out entirely.

Face it, we need changes bigger than most people understand and harder than practically anyone wants to do to alter course now. Maybe, big maybe, when Trump dies the MAGA spell will be broken on the most moronic 1/3 and they’ll fragment back to religious infighting, cousin banging, wrastlin’, and whatever else was keeping them disjoined before. Otherwise, outlook grim.

People vandalizing the pool by looking at the pealing bottom some idiots drove cars on before it was dry and poured random chemicals on and had workers walk around scrubbing? Gonna have to suspend the '26 elections just to be safe.

Are these the vandals they’re arresting for pouring in corrosive chemicals, walking in the pool, and scraping off the poorly done, poorly conceived paint job?

Oh no, he was slammed??! Was he also owned, sent a message, taken to task, and other things that mean someone said something that he ignored and went right back to what he was doing?

tldr; I’m so tired of these Wrestlemania headlines of completely consequence free replies to people being terrible. Wake us when any bad person experiences anything approaching accountability.

It’s a lot easier, more reliable to promote your son to VP than Senior [blank] Engineer. Also, for some weird reason we could never have predicted if we wanted to create a more efficient and equitable system, the people who decide salary decided they should have the biggest salary by a lot.

It’s so neat to have a problem that combines poor numeracy with not being able to see two steps ahead. Yeah, if could somehow grow the Venn diagram of people with those two skills that would be great.

This is the way

Avoid arguments as 9/10 they mean nothing.

If you find yourself in an argument, or what you think is an argument, caring about winning/losing is the wrong mindset. This isn’t Debate Camp and there isn’t a trophy waiting for you. Listening, testing your knowledge and convictions, and maintaining your integrity are all much, much more important than “winning”.

If you “lose” an argument, especially if you “lost” to style, tactics, rhetorical devices, etc… then see Rule 1 above.
